WS-C2960-8TC-L

[Noname9]

Hi team

Do WS-C2960-8TC-L vs Catalyst 2960C-8TC-L have the same IOS version?

I couldn't find IOS version for my WS-C2960-8TC-L. But I found version this

Catalyst 2960C-8TC-L Switch

https://software.cisco.com/download/home/283915790/type/280805680/release/15.2.7E6

 Is this version compatible with WS-C2960-8TC-L? 

Thanks 

[Leo Laohoo]

No, they don't.

Thank you, Leo Laohoo.

Where I can find latest stable version for that switch?

The last IOS version that can support classic C2960-8 are: 

1. 12.2(55)SE12
2. 15.0(2)SE11

Leo Laohoo, I have 2 units, both WS-C2960-8TC-S.

One unit is as follows (VEASP1):

Switch Ports Model SW Version SW Image
------ ----- ----- ---------- ----------
* 1 9 WS-C2960-8TC-S 15.0(2)SE4 C2960-LANLITEK9-M
System image file is "flash:c2960-lanlitek9-mz.150-2.SE4.bin"

Can I load the c2960-lanlitek9-tar.150-2.SE11.tar file or do I have to use the other c2960-lanlitek9-mz.150-2.SE11.bin that doesn't have the web interface?

Second unit is as follows (WSUSP1):

Switch Ports Model SW Version SW Image
------ ----- ----- ---------- ----------
* 1 9 WS-C2960-8TC-S 12.2(46)SE C2960-LANLITEK9-M
System image file is "flash:/c2960-lanlitek9-mz.122-46.SE/c2960-lanlitek9-mz.122-46.SE.bin"

Can I upgrade this unit to 15.0(2)SE11 or do I have to use 12.2(55)SE12? Same question about the tar versus separate bin file.

I have both the tar and bin files for both of the versions you mentioned.

Thank you for your help.

Those switches are running on LAN Lite.  The links that I have provided are incompatible.  
Try these instead: 

LAN LITE 15.0(2)SE11

Download the TAR file and use the command "archive download-sw tftp://<IP ADDRESS>/c2960-lanlitek9-tar.150-2.SE11.tar" to push the firmware up to the switch.

Thank you Sir! Both switches loaded with the tar file with no problems and are up and running on the new IOS.
