As far as I've determined, it seems like there might have been an error in the ordering process which omitted this. At any rate, I'm trying to get Smartnet activated on these (which was also omitted but should have been ordered) which will take some time as it has to go through my company's bid desk. In the meantime, is there any department within Cisco to whom I can speak to help resolve this just so I can get these to boot? After repeated emails and calls, I'm just told they cannot provide an image without an active service contract which I completely understand... but I'm not trying to upgrade it.

Hi Vinny,

If I were you I'd try to contact my Account Manager on Cisco to solve
this problem. Other way is to open TAC case and provide them scan of
invoice as a proof you bought the routers. But AM might be faster and
more reliable way.

Regards,
Peter
