- EoL reports per vendor, per chassis and components, per hardware type, per model, per operating system.
- Lifecycle information: End of Sales, End of Software Maintenance Support, End of Service, including color-coded scheme, and link to the related EoL announcement on the web site of the manufacturer.
Security (CVE):
The Security (CVE) application correlates the DNA inventory data with the dictionary of publicly known security vulnerabilities and exposures, created by the MITRE Corporation (http://cve.mitre.org), as well as other security information sources, such as manufacturers, and private and public security portals. With this release, Security CVE reports are offered for Cisco IOS. The reports contain the following information:
