    Hi
    Is there a download link on the product download page for the latest workstation toolset? I searched with CA Gen and Edge and variations thereof and didn't find anything!
    Thanks

    Anand,

      The link to the Gen product download follows.

    https://support.broadcom.com/download-center/product-download.html?subfamily=GEN

      The release drop down defaults to 8.5, which you will need to change to 8.6.

    Is the download still the GA version? Or does it ever get refreshed with current PTFs?

    Doug,

      The download is the GA version.  I recommend installing the 8.6 Complete immediately after installing the GA.  The 8.6 Complete (WKS86200 includes PTF consolidation) is located at the link below.  Plus, install any post-Complete PTFs that are applicable to your environment.

    Evidently I am doing something wrong?  at some point when I was trying this earlier it prompted me to enter my site id which I didn't have at that time. now I do have it, but can't remember where I need to enter it!

    Hi Anand,
    If you go to that download page (https://support.broadcom.com/download-center/product-download.html?subfamily=GEN) before login it will prompt you to login and if your account is registered for a SiteID which has GEN entitlements then you will be able to see the files. Without GEN entitlements you will see a message like above. The same process occurs if you are already logged in before going to the page. 
    When you registered your account you would have had to enter a SiteID(s) then. I would suggest to call our Customer Care team to get them to check your account for registered SiteIDs and their GEN entitlements.
    The support global contact numbers are here: https://www.broadcom.com/support/software/contact

    Hope that helps

    Regards,

    Lynn
