Downloading Hotfixes
Download hotfixes from the Cisco Support & Download site: https://software.cisco.com/download/home.
To find a hotfix, select or search for your model, then browse to the software download page for your current version. Available hotfixes are listed along with upgrade and installation packages. If you cannot find a hotfix on the download page for your patch level—especially if that same hotfix applies to other patches—look on other download pages where the hotfix applies, especially the first version and the last version.
You use the same hotfix package for all models in a family or series. Most hotfix packages use the following naming scheme:
-
Platform_Hotfix_letter-version-build.sh.REL.tar (Version 6.2.2+)
-
Platform_Hotfix_letter-version-build.sh (Version 5.4 through 6.2.0)
Do not untar signed (.tar) packages.
