Clicking through multiple authentication windows to get where you need on Cisco's site: 12 seconds Using Software Advisor to find the right IOS: 8 minutes Downloading IOS to a remote machine, then transferring the image to your real T/FTP/SCP server: 15 minutes Loading the image on your router just to find out that Software Advisor is junk and your specific WIC/NM/PA/WS version isn't recognized by said image, thereby forcing you to invent a way to strangle Cisco web tool designers through standard TCP/IP: Priceless. -evt _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
