Dear Friends,

I have ASA 5510 firewall. the hardware support will end in 2018 and the last supported IOS version is 9.1 as per the below link.

However, i just want to know that what is the last maintenance support date for the IOS 9.1. Am i able to get Cisco patches for IOS 9.1 till 2018?

Thank You

Parkar.

Hi,

Let's say a few words about the version codes.

For example if we take the version 9.1.6.x

The different numbers mean as follows:

9 - Major Release
1 - Minor Release
6 - Maintenance Release
x - Interim release

The Interim releases contain bug fixes which address specific issues found since the last Feature or Maintenance release.
They will remain on the download site only until the next Maintenance release is available.

So, as it was mentioned above the latest Maintenance Release supported on your device was 9.1.6. The latest Interim release available for download is 9.1.6.10. It was released on 11-JUN-2015.

For more details you could visit the download section on:

Hi,

The EOL of the version 9.1 has not been announced, so new Maintenance releases might be expected to be issued.

You could be updated about the EOL specific details on:
