If you've ever had a situation where you urgently need new switching features or critical bug fixes, you'll know why a new Cisco IOS software release is as precious as gold. In fact, a new software release can create big impact beyond features and bug fixes in many ways. For example, about 9 months ago, Cisco published its first converged software release (IOS-XE 3.5.0E/IOS 15.2(1)E) that allowed many Cisco switches such as Catalyst 4500-E, 4500-X, 3750-X, 3560-X, 2960-S, 2960-C, 2960-Plus, and 3560-C to use a common software release for simplified IT operations and maintenance.
Today, we are excited to announce a new Cisco software release, IOS-XE 3.6.0E/IOS 15.2(2)E, which is a major milestone in the Cisco IOS software history. For the first time, this new software delivers a single version of converged release for the extensive Cisco Unified Access product portfolio. You can save precious time, reduce operational costs and achieve lower total cost of ownership (TCO) with this release as you qualify, deploy and maintain this single combined software going forward . This software release supports new Unified Access products including Catalyst 2960-X/XR, Catalyst 3850/3850 fiber/3650, Catalyst 4500-E Supervisor 8-E, Cisco 5760 Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) as well as other "classic" Catalyst switches.
