Product Migration Options

The products covered by this end-of-life and end-of-sale notice differ from the indicated replacement products only in terms of their list price. The end-of-life products are upgrades to Cisco Security Manager that were previously offered at a discount to customers of CiscoWorks VMS. Customers who have already obtained a product covered by this end-of-life announcement do not need to obtain the corresponding replacement product,because features of the two are identical. New customers,including former VMS customers,will need to use the replacement product identification numbers going forward. Note also that the products covered by this announcement ship with Cisco Security Manager 3.1.1 and will not be further updated. When ordering be sure to check for the latest released version.
