Hi folks,
can someone please tell me the deal about buying cisco IOS software? I have a 1720 router with a module in it which isn't supported by the current IOS (12.0). So I need to upgrade this device to a later version. The device is nearly 5 years old and isn't covered by smartnet.
I have 2 different suppliers telling me 2 different things.
supplier 1...
tells me I can get 12.4 on CD, he then told me that his distributer never asked him which router it was for. Which then begs the question...Can I use this software on any other router (I have a couple which are only 12.2), he said he didn't know.
supplier 2...
tells me that when he orders the IOS he needs to know what router I have, which then makes me think I can't use it for any other cisco device.
which one is correct??? or can both be correct???
