Check Text (C-220621r961863_chk)
Verify that the switch is in compliance with this requirement by having the switch administrator enter the following command:
show version
Verify that the release is still supported by Cisco. All releases supported by Cisco can be found at:
www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/ios-nx-os-software
If the switch is not running a supported release, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-22325r507910_fix)
Upgrade the switch to a supported release.
