Cisco DNA Licenses

[ibrahim.imad]

Please note that we have DNA Center that monitors 9200 and 9500 switches. In addition we have Network essentials and DNA essentials on the 9200, and Network advantage and DNA advantage on the 9500.

We need to know what we get if we use only the perpetual licenses (network essentials/ advantages) on these devices? In other way, it is enough to keep only these perpetual licenses or we need to renew DNA licenses? and what will happen if we did not renew the DNA licenses?

Thank you

Hello,

A DNA subscription license is required for a C9K to be managed/monitored via Cisco DNA Center.

Please also refer to the DNA feature matrix for a detailed view of each tier.

Regards.

Hello,

But if the DNA center already manage the C9K devices that have DNA licenses, and these licenses are expired, what will happen if we don't renew them? what we loose?
