Note
Use the Cisco Product Identification (CPI) tool to locate your product serial number before
submitting a web or phone request for service. You can access the CPI tool from the Cisco
Technical Support Website by clicking the Tools & Resources link under Documentation &
Tools. Choose Cisco Product Identification Tool from the Alphabetical Index drop-down list,
or click the Cisco Product Identification Tool link under Alerts & RMAs. The CPI tool offers
three search options: by product ID or model name; by tree view; or for certain products, by
copying and pasting show command output. Search results show an illustration of your
product with the serial number label location highlighted. Locate the serial number label on
your product and record the information before placing a service call.
Submitting a Service Request
Using the online TAC Service Request Tool is the fastest way to open S3 and S4 service requests. (S3
and S4 service requests are those in which your network is minimally impaired or for which you
require product information.) After you describe your situation, the TAC Service Request Tool
provides recommended solutions. If your issue is not resolved using the recommended resources, your
service request is assigned to a Cisco TAC engineer. The TAC Service Request Tool is located at this
URL:
http://www.cisco.com/techsupport/servicerequest
For S1 or S2 service requests or if you do not have Internet access, contact the Cisco TAC by telephone.
(S1 or S2 service requests are those in which your production network is down or severely degraded.)
Cisco TAC engineers are assigned immediately to S1 and S2 service requests to help keep your business
operations running smoothly.
To open a service request by telephone, use one of the following numbers:
Asia-Pacific: +61 2 8446 7411 (Australia: 1 800 805 227)
EMEA: +32 2 704 55 55
USA: 1 800 553-2447
