I know that when we purchased some ASR 9000s they shipped with IOS XR 5 and then TAC pretty much immediately told me to downgrade to 4.3.x.
I'm not sure that applies to your specific product. -Drew -----Original Message----- From: cisco-nsp [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Steve Housego Sent: Tuesday, January 6, 2015 12:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [c-nsp] Cisco IOS Licensing - Downgrade Trying to get a straight answer from Cisco and I¹m not getting any definitive answers. Can anyone here comment on if you¹re legally able to downgrade IOS without a SMARTnet contract? A bunch of routers arrived and I want to downgrade the code to match the ones we already have in production (same make/model - 887VA). Getting the IOS of one of the existing routers isn¹t a problem - it¹s the legal issue of using code that it wasn¹t shipped with? The EULA has Œupgrades¹ written all over it, but no mention of downgrade.
