Memory Upgrade Overview

As additional software feature enhancements are introduced the minimum memory requirements are

changing for the Firepower Management Centers MC750 (Rev. 1 or Rev. 2), MC1500, and MC3500

models. Appliances that do not meet the minimum memory requirement are not supported.

Table A-1 outlines the RAM upgrade requirements.

Working in an ESD Environment

Upgraded Default RAM in Shipping Firepower 7000 and 8000 Series

Management Centers

All Firepower MC750, MC1500, and MC3500 Management Centers will ship with additional default

memory to meet the memory requirements beginning in December 2014.

Note Firepower MC1500 and MC3500 Management Centers already deployed prior to December 2014 should

function as intended with the default 12 GB of installed RAM. Contact Cisco regarding RAM upgrade

options for your particular deployment if you encounter performance issues.

Upgrade Paths for Existing Firepower Management Centers

Table A-2 lists the memory upgrade kits that will enable customers to upgrade their existing Firepower

Management Centers in order to deploy the latest software release.

Caution Yo u must remove all installed DIMMs and replace them with the modules from the upgrade kit.

Working in an ESD Environment

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. ESD damage occurs

when electronic components are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures.

Always follow ESD-prevention procedures when you remove and replace components. Ensure that the

chassis is electrically connected to earth ground. Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it

makes good skin contact. Connect the grounding clip to an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to

safely ground unwanted ESD voltages. To guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and

cord must operate properly. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of

the chassis.

Caution For the safety of your equipment, periodically check the resistance value of the anti-static strap. It should

be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohm).

Safety Warnings

This section contains important safety warnings for the installation and use of the appliance.

Removing the Chassis Cover

Firepower Management Centers have covers that slide off the rear of the chassis. There are slight

differences between chassis models which are described in the following sections:

•Removing the Cover from Firepower Management Center 750, page A-3

•Removing the Cover from Firepower Management Center 1500 and 3500, page A-5

Removing the Cover from Firepower Management Center 750

The procedure for removing the cover from a Firepower Management Center 750 differs depending on

the revision of the appliance (Rev. 1 or Rev. 2). See Figure A-1 for an illustration of the MC750 Rev. 1

chassis. See Figure A-2 for an illustration of the MC750 Rev. 2 chassis.

To remove the cover from a Firepower MC750:

Note A nonskid surface or a stop behind the MC750 (Rev. 1 or Rev. 2) may be needed to prevent the device

from sliding on your work surface.

Removing the Chassis Cover

Step 1 Observe the ESD precautions described in Working in an ESD Environment, page A-2 and the safety

precautions described in Safety Warnings, page A-2.

Step 2 Remove the security screws from the front of the chassis:

•For Rev. 1, there are two (2) screws (see “1” in Figure A-1).

•For Rev. 2, there are three (3) screws (see “1” in Figure A-2).

Step 3 Remove the security screw from the rear of the chassis. See “2” in Figure A-1 and Figure A-2.

Step 4 Slide the cover towards the rear by pushing on the blue grip points on the chassis cover:

•For Rev. 1, there is one (1) grip point (see “3” in Figure A-1).

•For Rev. 2, there are two (2) grip points (see “3” in Figure A-2).

Step 5 Lift the over off and set aside.

What to Do Next:

•Remove the processor air duct as described in the “Removing the Processor Air Duct from

Firepower Management Center 750” section on page A-6.

The MC1500 and MC3500 Management Centers share some of the same form factors. The following

procedure can apply to either device.

To remove the cover from a Firepower MC1500 or MC3500:

Note A nonskid surface or a stop behind the MC1500 or MC3500 may be needed to prevent the device from

sliding on your work surface.

Step 1 Observe the ESD precautions described in Working in an ESD Environment, page A-2 and the safety

precautions described in <Blue>Safety Warnings on page 2.

Step 2 Remove the security screw if it is installed (see “1” in Figure A-3).

Step 3 Cut the warranty label on the unit if it is intact.

Step 4 While holding in the blue button on the top of the chassis (see “3” in Figure A-3), slide the top cover

back until it stops (see “4” in Figure A-3).

•On the MC1500, the button is on the left.

•On the MC3500, the button is on the right as shown in Figure A-3.

Step 5 Insert your finger in the notch (see “2” in Figure A-3) and lift the cover upward to remove it.

Removing the Processor Air Duct

Firepower Management Centers operate with processor air ducts in place. The air ducts are required for

proper airflow within the chassis. It is necessary to remove the air ducts to gain full access to the DIMM

sockets on the chassis. There are some differences between chassis models which are described in the

following sections:

•Removing the Processor Air Duct from Firepower Management Center 750, page A-6

•Removing the Processor Air Duct from Firepower Management Center 1500 and 3500, page A-8

The procedure for removing the air duct from a Firepower MC750 differs depending on the revision of

the appliance (Rev. 1 or Rev. 2). See Figure A-4 for an illustration of the MC750 Rev. 1 chassis. See

Figure A-5 for an illustration of the MC750 Rev. 2 chassis.

To remove the processor air duct from a Firepower MC750:

Step 1 Observe the ESD precautions described in Working in an ESD Environment, page A-2 and the safety

precautions described in Safety Warnings, page A-2.

Step 2 Lift the processor air duct from its location behind the system cooling fans:

•For Rev. 1 chassis see “1” in Figure A-4)

•For Rev. 2 chassis see “1” in Figure A-5).

The Firepower MC1500 and MC3500 share some of the same form factors. The following procedure can

apply to either device.

Note Before the processor air duct can be removed from a MC1500 and MC3500, the adjacent PCI Riser

Assembly must first be removed.

To remove the processor air duct from a Firepower MC1500 or MC3500:

Step 1 Observe the ESD precautions described in Working in an ESD Environment, page A-2 and the safety

precautions described in Safety Warnings, page A-2.

Step 2 Disconnect any cables attached to any add-in cards.

Step 3 Grasp both riser latches with thumb and forefinger and pull up to release the riser assembly.

Step 4 Lift riser assembly straight up (see “1” in Figure A-6).

What to Do Next:

•Remove the MC1500 or MC3500 DIMMs as described in the “Replacing the DIMMs” section on

page A-9.

Replacing the DIMMs

To ensure the best appliance performance, it is important that you are familiar with memory requirement

guidelines and population rules before you install or replace memory modules. See Table A-1 in Memory

Upgrade Overview, page A-1 for a reminder of the default memory configurations that shipped with

Firepower Management Centers prior to the release of Firepower System 5.4.

Table A-3 below outlines the new memory requirements to run Firepower System 5.4 and greater.

Appliances that do not meet the minimum memory requirement are not supported.

DIMM Location and Orientation

On the Firepower MC750 (Rev. 1 or Rev. 2), MC1500, and MC3500, the DIMM connectors are located

on the system board and are identified by silkscreen labels. You can also refer to the Quick Reference

Label on the inside of the chassis cover to assist in locating components.

Tip Please note that only blue DIMM connectors are populated with modules.

DIMMs have a polarization notch on the mating edge to prevent incorrect insertion. Figure A-8 shows

the polarization notch on a DIMM.

Figure A-8 DIMM Showing Polarization Notch

Locating DIMMs in Firepower Management Centers

Use the following figures to identify the correct DIMM connectors for your memory upgrade

requirements identified in Table A-3. The silkscreen on the system board also displays the DIMM labels

starting from the center of the board.

•Refer to Figure A-9 for the location of the DIMM connectors on the MC750 (Rev. 1).

•Refer to Figure A-10 for the location of the DIMM connectors on the MC750 (Rev. 2).

•Refer to Figure A-11 for the location of the DIMM connectors on the MC1500 and MC3500.
