Cisco ACI Nexus Data Broker License Term N9K M4, 3Y | Enterprise Licensing — C1-N9K-NDB-M4-3Y

Maintain consistent visibility across Cisco ACI and Nexus M4 deployments with a 3-year data broker license designed for enterprise network operations. This term license supports teams that need to inspect, route, and analyze traffic data without introducing extra appliances or disrupting the fabric architecture. For infrastructure groups managing high-value application environments, the value is in preserving control. A data broker layer helps direct the right traffic to the right tools, so monitoring, security, and performance workflows stay coordinated. That matters when you are validating policy behavior, troubleshooting latency, or feeding downstream analytics platforms that depend on clean packet access. A term-based model also gives procurement and operations a predictable planning window. It fits organizations that want to align licensing with refresh cycles, budget periods, or migration programs while keeping Cisco ACI operations under a single vendor framework. For teams standardizing on Nexus M4, this license supports that discipline with a clear, time-bound entitlement.
