The Cisco IOS XE 3S software documentation set consists of Cisco IOS XE 3S configuration guides and Cisco IOS command references. The configuration guides are consolidated platform-independent configuration guides organized and presented by technology. There is one set of configuration guides for the Cisco IOS XE Release 2 release train and another for the Cisco IOS XE 3S release train. However, there is only one set of command references because they are platform independent—Cisco IOS command references support all Cisco platforms that are running any Cisco IOS or Cisco IOS XE software image.
Note All content included in Cisco IOS XE Release 2 configuration guides is shared with and included in the Cisco IOS XE 3S configuration guides. As a result, some information for features introduced as part of Cisco IOS XE 3S may also be displayed in Cisco IOS XE Release 2 configuration guides.
Information in the configuration guides often includes related content that is shared across software releases and platforms. Some features referenced in these configuration guides may not be supported by Cisco IOS XE Release 2 and later releases or by the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers. For the latest feature information and caveats in Cisco IOS XE Release 2 and later releases, see the Features, Important Notes, and Caveats section of these release notes.
Additionally, you can use Cisco Feature Navigator to find information about feature, platform, and software image support. To access Cisco Feature Navigator, go to http://www.cisco.com/go/cfn. An account on cisco.com is not required.
