Cisco Phone Testing Lab

[dmccleskey]

This is our first post to this forum. Our company is looking at ways we can create new business opportunities through resale of new and used Cisco phones systems. Our first objective is to be able to setup a test lab and to be quite honest, we haven't been able to find the contacts at Cisco to do this. This is not advertising for our company, but a fact finding mission for us. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  

Thank You

That is going to be a bit of a challenge, the only option that I know in which you can buy a bundle for lab, is if you're a partner, and you buy one of the NFR kits (You can google Cisco NFR kit for more info)

If you're not a partner, I believe for some products, there might be some other lab options, but you'd need to engage a Cisco partner to purchase this.

Also, for most products, there are no bootable images on cisco.com, they're only upgrade images, and even if you find the hack to turn those into bootable, without licensing, you only have 60 days before the system prevents you from doing any kind of changes, it will keep working, but you'll lose all admin capabilities.
