I agree with Mike. If it is brand new out of the box than you can open a case with TAC and they will be more than glad to help you. If it is refurb than watch out. Cisco is doing the big crack down on that stuff.

You usually have a "standard" one year equipment warranty; that should cover something like that.... Be really really nice when you open a case. They usually are willing to help out. Another great thing about Cisco!!! -----Original Message----- From: sam sneed [mailto:vristevski@;hotmail.com] Sent: Thursday, October 24, 2002 9:21 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: PIX CCO question [7:56162] My question only pertains to new equipment. For example, lets say I buy a brand new PIX online. The place I buy from has one in stock thats been sitting around for a year and they ship me that one. It has an older OS , lets say 5.4 with a few significant bugs. What do I do then? I'm basically left with a piece of brand new equipment that doesn't work right. I figured Cisco had a 90 day warranty or soemhting that would cover getting the new OS? Anyone know about this for sure?
