rp7400/N4000 End of Life Question

[rmueller58]

I'm running an N4000/RP7400 with 11.0 UX.. I know UX 11.00 will be end of support life 12/31/06. I am curious if someone can tell me when my N4000 / rp7400 end of support life occurs.. I will probably need to press the powers that be about this.. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

All the details are here online:

Date actually depends on the model:

31-Mar-06 (A3639A),
31-Jul-07 (A3639B),
31-Dec-08 (A3639C)

Per the document above, these are Guaranteed minimum support dates (end of support).
End of sales was 25 April 03 for N4000 and Feb 2003 for rp7400.

We buy a support contract every year.. Looks like to the tune of about 30k a year.
