How to get evaluation for 15.x IOS

[nathanhurley1]

Does anyone know how to get an evaluation version of any 15.x code for an ISR router? 

Do you have to have a service contract for this? I didn't see anything on the website download area. 

Thanks.

Nathan usually you will need a service contract for this... and their code to my knowledge inst eval just the licences

Cisco does not offer evaluation copies of IOS versions.

As wrobbin replied, a valid service contract is required to have access to download new IOS versions.

There are some various feature licenses that can be activated on a trial basis, but not the base IOS operating system itself.

To get access to any version 15.x IOS you need service contract for this version.
