End-of-Sales Announcement, FC-PFQ Upgrade for LightStream 1010

Introduction

This product bulletin covers the issues associated with the end of sales (EOS) for the FC-1 feature card 1 to FC-PFQ feature card per-flow queuing upgrade for the ATM switch processor for the LightStream 1010®.

Last Order Date:

November 15, 1998

Last Ship Date:

November 30, 1998

Product Affected:

UPG-B-FC1-TO-PFQ

ASP-B only—FC1-to-FC-PFQ upgrade with spare 64-MB DRAM


Rationale

The LightStream 1010 FC-1 to FC-PFQ upgrade was introduced as a temporary program to allow a migration to the added features and functionality of the per-flow queuing feature card.

Future upgrades to current and future ATM switch processors will be handled via the Technology Migration Plan. This plan will both simplify the process and provide optimum investment protection for the installed base of LightStream 1010 multiservice ATM switches.

Support Programs

"End-of-sales" refers to the time when certain products are no longer available for new purchases. It does not apply to the service and support programs for those products. Cisco will continue to support the affected product after end of sales through our SMARTnet and Comprehensive Maintenance programs. Customers with either of these service contracts are entitled to free software updates, 24-hour phone support through the Technical Assistance Center, and advance replaced hardware for repairs. Comprehensive Maintenance customers also receive on-site service. Customers who do not have maintenance contracts can purchase software updates and hardware repair services from Cisco to meet specific requirements rather than full service coverage. Cisco is committed to providing software support for a minimum of two years and providing hardware support for a period of five years after the End-of-sales date.
