Solved: Updated Cisco Catalyst Switch Guide ?

xavier.walker · ‎04-14-2009

The latest one I have / can find is from Summer 2007 / v3. Link: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/switches/ps5718/ps708/networking_solutions_products_genericcontent0900aecd805f0955.pdf

However, a few things have changed since then, and for example, there's no mention of the 4900M switch or the more recent VSS Supervisor engines, etc.

To me, it really needs an update. Is there a more recent one that has been published?

It's a fantastic quick reference tool and is so much quicker than trying to find the information on the Cisco site.

Thanks.

That's the latest one I have as well. You can purchase the Product Quick Reference Guides at https://cisco.mediuscorp.com/market/cisco/productView.se.work?/nxt/rcrs/proieidentity/=17606 They get updated more frequently.

Hope that helps.

UPDATE: I never noticed it before, but there is a view online link. Only lists partial products. You can register and download the last version.
