Cisco A9K-2X100G-AIP-SE L3 VPN License | 2x100GE Line Card — A9K-2X100G-AIP-SE

Enable the routing features your network design depends on. This Cisco L3 VPN license is intended for 2x100GE line card services, giving operators the entitlement needed to turn high-capacity transport into segmented, policy-driven WAN connectivity. For service-provider cores, metro aggregation, and large enterprise edge architectures, the value is in feature access tied to the hardware platform. Rather than adding complexity with separate appliances, the license aligns advanced VPN services with the line card already carrying the traffic. That keeps the deployment model clean and helps preserve performance at 100GE speeds. This is a licensing item, not a physical device, so it fits procurement workflows where software entitlements must be tracked precisely by platform and service scope. It is a practical choice when the network already has the chassis and optics in place, but needs the right software authorization to deliver Layer 3 VPN services at scale. Ideal For Enable L3 VPN services on service-provider edge routers Activate routed segmentation on 2x100GE line card deployments Support metro aggregation networks carrying high-volume traffic Provision software entitlements for enterprise WAN routing platforms Why This Product 1 Activates L3 VPN services on existing 2x100GE hardware 2 Keeps routing feature access tied to the correct Cisco platform 3 Avoids adding separate appliances for VPN segmentation 4 Fits procurement workflows for software entitlements
