Product Migration Options
Customers are encouraged to migrate to the Cisco IOS Software Release 15.1(4)M which is expected to be available in the first half of calendar year 2011. While IOS 15.0(1)M is also a viable migration option, its end of sale is planned for 2012; therefore it is highly recommended to migrate to 15.1(4)M when available.
