Cisco Cisco Prime Network 3.8

Warm upgrade feature (for Cisco IOS images only), which provides the capability for a Cisco IOS 
image to read and decompress another Cisco OS image and then transfer control to this new image. 
This functionality reduces the downtime of a device during planned Cisco IOS software upgrades or 
downgrades.

FTP support for all config and image transfers for Cisco IOS devices.

IPv6 support—Configuration Management (CM) and Image Management functions run smoothly 
on a combination of network and devices with IPv6 addresses. Both the device and the unit must be 
configured with an IPv6 address to work.

Option to toggle between different views to view the dashboard details either as a pie or bar chart 
or in a tabular form.

Option to specify default restore mode for configuration files.

Option to specify when you want Change and Configuration Management to send automatic e-mail 
notifications.

Feature to import images from an external image repository.

Job specification ID assigned whenever a CM or Image Management job is created. Each job 
specification ID can have jobs or tasks that run periodically for a single configuration or image 
management operation. You can view the details of the successful tasks, unsuccessful tasks, and any 
scheduled (pending) tasks for each job specification.
