This is all such a waste of human life time. Add the manhours required for that to your TCO calculation for new gear to be purchased. Let your sales contact know about it. Let your SE get you images and open TAC cases for you. CCO annoys me to such lengths that I didn't have an accessible CCO account anymore for quite some time. It's broken for Firefox these days, too (which I've discovered after approx 1 hour trying to download an image). And don't get me started about those new required security questions for your CCO login, with predefined ultrasimple questions. This is where a vendor shows how much clue about real security they have (or not). /rant Regards, Daniel -- CLUE-RIPE -- Jabber: d...@cluenet.de -- d...@ircnet -- PGP: 0xA85C8AA0 ___ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/

They are moving over to a system where you will only be able to download SW for devices that you have active service contracts for. In comparison to the setup at the moment where as long as you have a valid contract for 1 device you can actually download the software for any device.
