Hello, I have been trying to figure out this afternoon where I stand with my lab devices and their IOS versions.

I have only been looking for the latest IOS for my 2950 switch, but I just cannot decipher the Google results.

One of my 2950's have Ver. 12.1(22)EA1

One of my 2600 routers has Ver. 11.3.(2)XA4



I would like to know if I need an updated IOS and if so which version. Also, any help on pointing me in the right direction on how I can EASILY figure out the correct IOS is much appreciated.

Thanks in advanced icon_study.gif

    Erm, you are out of the date on the 2600s by about 6 or 7 years worth of IOS releases. Its possible to get 12.4 IOSs for 2600s, most of them support at minimum 12.3.

    You are probably out of date, but I don't know your specific hardware.

    My guest account has access to the advisor, I just can't download anything:
