Hi,

Does anyone know whether it is possible to retrieve old Cisco IOS from Cisco website. I am looking for an IOS for router 2503. It has the oldest IOS version ie 11.1.

Send me an email tim@muppetz.com tomorrow and I'll see what I can do for you.

Mods: No need to hide my email address.  I have antispam that works just fine.

It did not ask me for a username and password. i just used my browser to access it not an ftp client.

It works with "anonymous" as the username and an email address as the password. The status messages are in Cyrillic so it's probably not a Cisco server!

I will try to browse each sub-folder rather than enter the url.

I'm not sure share is the right word.. when there are licening agreements attached to the IOS's (they are an OS for a device afterall)
