# Migration information

The CG 6565E board is based on the CG 6565 and the CG 6060 boards. Although the boards are very similar, be aware of the following hardware and software differences as you migrate from one of these boards to the CG 6565E board.

## Hardware differences

CG 6060 board | CG 6565 board | CG 6565E board
DSP - 8x C5441, 4 cores each for 32 cores maximum (4256 MIPS). | DSP - 12x C5441, 4 cores each for 48 cores maximum (6384 MIPS). | DSP - 12x C5441, 4 cores each for 48 cores maximum (6384 MIPS).

## Software differences

The software differences between the CG 6565/CG 6060 boards and the CG 6565E board include changes to the following:

- System configuration file

- Board information

- Temperature monitoring system

### System configuration file

The CG 6565E board product name that appears in the system configuration file is based on the number of trunks on the board:

Product name | Description
CG_6565E | Zero trunk CG 6565E boards and a generic name that can be used to refer to any of the CG 6565E board variants.
CG_6565E_4 | One, two, or four trunk CG 6565E boards.
CG_6565E_8 | Eight trunk CG 6565E boards.

The following system configuration file excerpt describes an eight-trunk CG 6565E board configured using no call control:

[CG6565EPCI]
Product = CG_6565E_8
Number = 0
Bus = 11
Slot = 0
File = c6565nocc.cfg

For more information, refer to Creating a system configuration file for oamsys.

### Board information

- The ID for the CG 6565E board is 0x6568. For example, pciscan displays the following information:

PCI Boards Scanner
Bus Slot ID
--- ---- ------
11 0 0x6568 CG_6565E
12 0 0x6568 CG_6565E
There were 2 PCI board(s) detected

- The OAM product number is 0x638 and is included in the \nms\include\nmshw.h file:

#define OAM_PRODUCT_NO_CG6565E 0x638

- CG 6565E boards use the CG 6565 switching model with MVIP-95 DSP streams of 64 to 67 as shown in the following boardinf example:

Natural Access Board Information Demo V.13 (Jan 25 2008)

------ ----- ----------- ----- ------------ ------ ----------- -------
0 11, 0 CG6565E 6384 244076180 120 0..119 64-67
1 12, 0 CG6565E 6384 244307880 128 0..127 64-67
Total port count = 248

- The subsystem ID for a CG board is 0x6568 as shown in the following cg6ktool example (use the -A option when you run cg6ktool):

CG family command line tool, V3.00 (Dec 10 2004) Dialogic Corporation
Board SubSysID Bus:Slot Shelf-Slot Temp Fan DSP Cores Trunks
CG 6565E 0x6568 11:0 0-0 50.0 C 3270 RPM 48 0
CG 6565E 0x6568 12:0 0-0 50.0 C 3270 RPM 48 4

### Temperature monitoring system

CG 6565E boards include a temperature and a fan monitoring system. If the board temperature becomes too high or the fan tachometer is under the warning threshold, oammon generates either a warning or a critical error message.

For more information, refer to Temperature and fan monitoring system.
