Updating Cisco IOS and other software powering Cisco routers and switches can be tricky, but ignoring security updates is risky. Progent's Cisco CCIE-certified network engineers can provide fast and affordable online expertise to keep you out of trouble.
Updating Cisco IOS Software
Cisco IOS is the control software used in virtually all Cisco routers and in the latest Cisco switches. Cisco often updates IOS to fix bugs, improve security, or add functionality. Ignoring IOS updates can impact network stability and security and cause you to miss out on new features that could streamline management or improve performance. But upgrading Cisco IOS and other Cisco software can be tricky, depending on your Cisco equipment and your network environment. For example, there may be limitations of local Flash or RAM that cause new software to misbehave or run out of resources. Occasionally, an updated device is unable to boot.
Progent's Cisco-certified CCIE network engineers have the experience to anticipate and fix problems you may encounter and help you carry out successful upgrades quickly and with minimal disruption of network availability. Progent's experts are accessible online to provide fast and affordable help.
Progent's Team of Cisco-certified CCIE Network Engineers
Progent maintains one of the largest independent teams of CCIE-certified network engineers in the U.S. (Refer to Progent's CCIE Network Experts). The CCIE certification is the world's top recognition for network professionals and indicates that a consultant's technical knowledge is at the expert level. Cisco awards less than 3% of all Cisco accredited consultants the CCIE certification, and those who reach this level can handle even the most challenging problems associated with network planning, integration, management, security, and troubleshooting.
CCIE network engineers represent excellent value because their depth of experience allows them to find quick solutions to problems that less qualified consultants may spend hours or even days trying to resolve.
