software upgrades, onsite assistance, or advanced hardware replacement.
Experienced engineers are available to manage your installation with
minimal disruption to your network. Expert assessment and implementation
services are offered to fill resource gaps and ensure the success of your
networking projects. For more information on 3Com Extended Warranty and

Access Software
Downloads
You are entitled to
bug fix / maintenance releases
for the version of
software that you initially purchased with your 3Com product. To obtain
access to this software, you need to register your product and then use the
Serial Number as your login. Restricted Software is available at:
http://eSupport.3com.com/
To obtain software releases that
follow
the software version that you
originally purchased, 3Com recommends that you buy an Express or
Guardian contract, a Software Upgrades contract, or an equivalent support
contract from 3Com or your reseller. Support contracts that include software
upgrades cover feature enhancements, incremental functionality, and bug
fixes, but they do not include software that is released by 3Com as a
separately ordered product. Separately orderable software releases and
licenses are listed in the 3Com Price List and
are available for purchase from
your 3Com reseller.
