Cisco 1700 IP ADSL PLUS FEATURE PACK

CISCO 1700 IP ADSL PLUS Feature Pack To date, every release of Cisco IOS Software feature sets for the Cisco 1700 Series modular access routers has been made available as spare parts. A Cisco IOS Software spare part is shipped as a single image on CD-ROM or other removable media. They are purchased by end customers upgrading from the base feature set and by Cisco partners staging configuration of routers.

Now, Cisco will migrate to a model where a Cisco IOS Software spare part CD-ROM includes all current releases of the feature set. This CD-ROM will be referred to as a Cisco IOS Feature Pack and has been created for many feature sets. Customers only need to specify platform and feature set when ordering a Cisco IOS Feature Pack. It will no longer be necessary to specify a particular release.

The contents of the Cisco IOS feature packs will be updated quarterly and will include the latest maintenance releases from mainline release trains, T-trains, and special releases.

Note that purchase of a Cisco IOS Feature Pack includes an entitlement to deploy any release of the selected feature set, not only those included on the CD-ROM. If the desired release is not included on the CD-ROM, it can be downloaded from Cisco.com or it can be obtained from your Cisco partner or customer service representative.

Also, note that only the most commonly deployed feature sets will be sold as Cisco IOS feature packs. Other feature sets remain available as traditional spare parts.
