Release Notes for SSG-MWAM Release 1.2 with Cisco IOS Release 12.3(8)T1
OL-5539-02
Introduction
Introduction
Cisco SSG-MWAM Release 1.2 implements the SSG on the Multi-processor WAN Application Module 
(MWAM). Cisco SSG-MWAM Release 1.2 increases session density and enhances interoperability with 
other products based on the Catalyst 6500/Cisco 7600 series platform. 
Multi-processor WAN Application Module
The MWAM provides three processor complexes with dual processors used in two of the complexes and 
a single processor used in the remaining processor complex. This architecture provides five SSGs (see 
) on one module. In addition, each Catalyst 6500/Cisco 7600 chassis can be populated with 
multiple MWAMs to enable a large number of subscribers to access network services under SSG control.

MWAM Architecture
The MWAM does not provide external ports but is connected to the switch fabric in the Catalyst 
6500/Cisco 7600 chassis. An internal Gigabit Ethernet port provides an interface between each processor 
complex and the Supervisor module. Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) direct traffic from external 
ports via the Supervisor module to each SSG instance.
The MWAM provides an interface to the IOS image on the Supervisor module. The Supervisor module 
software enables a single session to be established to each SSG on the MWAM(s) in the chassis. Each 
session is used for configuring, monitoring, and troubleshooting the SSG. For information on 
establishing sessions to SSG instances on the MWAM, refer to the MWAM User Guide:
The software image that provides the SSG feature is downloaded through the Supervisor module and 
distributed to each processor complex on the MWAM(s). The same image is installed on all the 
processors in the MWAM.
