Hi,
More money than purchasing new? Smartnet on a secondhand vs new is the same
price?
I once looked at getting a bunch second-hand c1841s, re-licensing IOS and
getting them inspected and covered by SmartNet, and the total price was higher
than just buying new c1841s with SmartNet.

Hello mark.
What I meant was the more expensive kit as in higher
range platforms (6500/7600 platform for instance). There

smartnet for those platforms.

Maybe, but Cisco is going to charge you a lot of money for that.

My primary interest with this query is to do everything above-board from a
software licensing perspective.
Hardware support (warranty) and TAC support is a secondary concern.
Software updates, on the other hand, do kind of matter.
Is there a right way to handle software updates without a

limited lifetime warranty that is supposed to include software
updates, particularly those related to security defects and known
release defects.
