	You must have a fairly high speed desktop link near
where you stage your images.

	You can no longer use wget/curl to download images from Cisco
anymore.  They're redirecting you over to download-sj (in my case)
then over to download (to login again?) then back to download-sj
to get the image, but the url at download-sj is the same as the first one
and requires some additional external auth bits. (cookies perhaps?)

	If you care about not having to download these images to your hotel room
next network outage you have, I suggest you talk to your Cisco support
reps now and/or open a tac case.
