For example, if you're a cisco shop do you always make sure to keep your core equipment under smartnet? Even though there are 3rd party companies that will do support/maintenance?
Or say a switch supervisor is going end of life do you make plans to upgrade it with a more current sup asap even if the switch capabilities/capacity are still sufficient for the network?
Not being able to get the firmware is a big downside, but otherwise I would say I generally don't have much of an issue with moving maintenance to a 3rd party or even letting some items go end of support before replacing/upgrading...was just curious what others do.
