  • Service Module Slots are used for router modules that run specific services that could be either Cisco proprietory or third party applications. These modules have their own processors, memory etc and don't use any of the router's resources.
  • A service module slot replaces the network module and the extension module for voice/fax (EVM) slots and is offered on Cisco 2911, 2921, and 2951 ISRs. An adapter module enables backward compatibility with existing network modules, enhanced Network Modules (NMEs), and EVMs.

how this switch module works in 2911 router? I have two 2911 routers in HSRP configuration for redundancy with crossover cable between switch modules. OSPF running on routers.If active router loses its power and then comes back again, it boots first, its internal link to switch module comes up and it starts to forward packets to switch module. The switch module starts to boot only after router is ready. So I have outage of about 3-4 minutes. For our real-time applications it is way too long.
any way to start booting of the switch module before router gets ready?I understand I can boot it manually, but it is only after router is ready. Only way to get around it I found is to disable internal link and use router interface to connect to the switch module.

This page presents the Cisco ISR routers simulated in Cisco TM Packet Tracer 7.3.1 and the WAN Interface Cards (WIC) and Network Modules (NM) available for those equipments.
