Good day from Singapore,

Where can I download the source code for Cisco IOS-XE software, since it is based on Linux?

Please refer to the output of the "show version" CLI command below.

Since the Cisco IOS-XE software is licensed under GNU General Public License Version 2.0 and is free software, I should be able to download the source code readily. But Cisco does not provide a download page for the source code and requires us to purchase a service contract before we can download the software.

Thank you.
