Why each option
When an organization deploys Cisco CSR1000v routers in their private cloud infrastructure, the organization is responsible for managing and updating the router's operating system code.
In a private cloud or IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) deployment model, the customer (organization) is responsible for managing the operating systems and applications, including upgrading the code for virtual network devices like the Cisco CSR1000v.
The cloud vendor (provider) is typically responsible for the underlying physical infrastructure and virtualization platform, but not for the operating system or application code running within the customer's deployed virtual machines like the CSR1000v.
Asking the cloud service provider to perform the upgrade for a customer-managed virtual appliance like the CSR1000v in a private cloud is generally incorrect, as this task falls within the customer's operational responsibility.
The Cisco CSR1000v does not automatically upgrade its code; updates must be manually initiated and managed by the organization or administrators responsible for its operation.
