Hey,
I have the highest respect for TAC. I only have one
problem I ever called about that went unresolved to my
satisfaction and that involved a CE-560 and a
configuration that was not supported, although the
gear obviously did what it was doing, and the fact was
it was just limited in what I was asked to make it
do...
I forget the details - been a while now.
I was trying to convey that they are typcially subject
matter experts or if not have one close at hand able
to come to the rescue.
At least this has been my own experience. I'm very
happy with the assistance I have received from TAC and
consider it to one of the reasons why Cisco is a
product leader and has such market penetration - among
a few other reasons.
