Re: DocCD Reference Material

One quick bump to see if anyone has answers to my questions, then I'll
assume you're just not telling!

- are products not related to the lab (like firewalls and old IOS
releases) still available on the in-lab DocCD website?
- can we open the pdf versions of DocCD documents? This really helps
since you can Control-F search them!
- if we can access the pdfs, can they be saved to the desktop for
later reference, or would we have to keep them open in a web browser
throughout the lab?
- is the DocCD available for the troubleshooting portion too?
