The following Cisco Systems memory spare and upgrade kits are compatible with the VIP6-80:

Depending on your system configuration, a memory upgrade might be required. Also, if a system
problem is determined to be caused by a DIMM, a DIMM replacement might be required.

Caution

Handle the DIMM by the card edges only, and avoid touching the memory module, pins, or traces (the
metal fingers along the connector edge of the DIMM). (See
