Hi,

Yes. Cisco offers ongoing Cisco IOS Software updates for certain fixed-configuration and stackable Cisco Catalyst switches at no additional cost. For the life of the product, updates within the Cisco IOS Software package purchased (LAN Lite and LAN Base) will be made available.


Note that upgrades are different from updates. For example, an upgrade from the IP Base package to IP Services package provides significant new function; therefore, this upgrade requires the purchase of a software license upgrade. Updates are incremental software features and bug fixes that are released within a licensed Cisco IOS Software package.


Please rate the helpfull posts.
Regards,
Naidu.

There is no such thing as an "IP Base" for the plain 2960/2960G.

2960 LC will support only LAN Lite IOS and you can't upgrade this. 

I believe the 2960S can either be LAN Lite or LAN Base.

NOTE:  Sorry Latchum.
