Obtaining Technical Assistance
Cisco TAC inquiries are categorized according to the urgency of the issue:
•
Priority level 4 (P4) — You need information or assistance concerning Cisco
product capabilities, product installation, or basic product configuration.
•
Priority level 3 (P3) — Your network performance is degraded. Network
functionality is noticeably impaired, but most business operations continue.
•
Priority level 2 (P2) — Your production network is severely degraded,
affecting significant aspects of business operations. No workaround is
available.
•
Priority level 1 (P1) — Your production network is down, and a critical
impact to business operations will occur if service is not restored quickly. No
workaround is available.
The Cisco TAC resource that you choose is based on the priority of the problem
and the conditions of service contracts, when applicable.
