If your company plans to deploy broadband-based services with the Cisco® Integrated Services Routers (ISRs) and Integrated Services Routers Generation 2 (ISR G2) with integrated xDSL technologies, this document can help you avoid potential problems and help you identify the right customer premises equipment (CPE) and firmware version for your deployment.
DSL Chipset-to-ISR Model Mapping
The features and interoperability depend on the chipset used in the CPE. To simplify the documentation, refer to Table 1, which lists which DSL chipsets are used in which series of CPE. The supported types of DSL (very-high-bit-rate DSL [VDSL] and/or asymmetric DSL [ADSL]) are cross references with the annex that they can run on
(A, B, M, or J).

Firmware Naming Convention
The firmware version is in the format A2pv6C038k1, where the last 3 to 4 characters, in this example 38K1, identify the version. The Cisco Download Center shows the firmware file name equal to vdsl.bin-<FW -Version>, that is, vdsl.bin-A2pv6C035l until Version 35L. After that version the file name contains more information and is of the following format: VA_A_<Annex-A_FW>_B_<Annex-B_FW>_<Driver>.bin; that is, VA_A_38k1_B_38h_24g1.bin.
How to Determine Which Firmware Version Is Running
For V/A DSL routers, use the following command:
Router#show controllers VDSL 0 | include Modem FW
Modem FW Version: 120306_1254-4.02L.03.A2pv6C035j.d23j.
For G.SHDSL routers, use the following command:
Router#show controllers SHDSL | include IDC Firmware
IDC Firmware version: 1.7.5.0.
Table 9 lists the firmware embedded in different Cisco IOS Software releases.

How to Upgrade DSL Firmware
For G.SHDSL platforms (Cisco 888 and Cisco 898 SHDSL), xDSL firmware is not yet available as an independent image. For VDSL and ADSL platforms (Cisco 860VAE, 880, 880V, 880VA, and 890VA), firmware can be independently upgraded. To do so, go to the download center:
http://www.cisco.com/cisco/software/navigator.html?a=a&i=rch.
● Select Routers.
● Select Branch Routers.
● Select Cisco 800 Series Routers.
● Select the model applicable to you.
● Select Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) Firmware or Very High Bitrate DSL (VDSL) Firmware.
After you download the firmware file, copy it on Flash and configure the router to use the new firmware:
Router#configure terminal
Router(config)#controller VDSL 0
Router(config-controller)#firmware filename flash:VA_A_38k1_B_38h_24g1.bin
A reload is required to activate the new firmware.
You should afterward verify that the upgrade was successful:
Before the upgrade:

CPE and DSLAM Interoperability
The Cisco ISR G2 product portfolio supports a diversity of DSL technologies, including very-high-bit-rate DSL 2 (VDSL2), asymmetric DSL (ADSL), ADSL2/2+, multimode VDSL2/ADSL2+, and G.SHDSL. The Cisco ISR G2 CPE described in Tables 9 through 23 has been tested at the Cisco DSL Interoperability Test Lab in San Jose, California, to help ensure interoperability with the DSL access multiplexers (DSLAMs) also specified in these tables.
