You should also read any Readme.txt file and any release notes for additional important information. After you install CiscoSecure GRS, if there is a Readme.txt file, it will be located in the following directory:

/pathname/doc

pathname is the directory you select during the installation process.

Your CiscoSecure GRS also includes a quick reference card to help you quickly install and configure it.

Cisco documentation and additional literature are available in a CD-ROM package, which ships with your product. The Documentation CD-ROM, a member of the Cisco Connection Family, is updated monthly. Therefore, it might be more up to date than printed documentation. To order additional copies of the Documentation CD-ROM, contact your local sales representative or call customer service. The CD-ROM package is available as a single package or as an annual subscription. You can also access Cisco documentation on the World Wide Web at http://www.cisco.com, http://www-china.cisco.com, or http://www-europe.cisco.com.

If you are reading Cisco product documentation on the World Wide Web, you can submit comments electronically. Click Feedback on the title bar, and then select Documentation. After you complete the form, click Submit to send it to Cisco. We appreciate your comments.
