This is an upgrade path, not a replacement gateway chassis. Record the installed service revision and entitlement before ordering; the exact article must be assessed against the existing deployment.
Cisco's StarOS statistics reference distinguishes current Rev-A sessions from total PDSN sessions, and separately records downgrades from Rev-A to Rev-0. Ask the deployment engineer to specify which release-appropriate counters and license records will demonstrate the requested outcome.
The published lifecycle means that this listing cannot promise current TAC access or ongoing software updates. Request a written assessment of usable entitlement and the proposed migration approach. A migration option listed in a lifecycle notice is not automatically a drop-in replacement for an existing network.
