Keep critical routing services aligned to the throughput demands of modern backbone and aggregation networks with the Cisco ASR 9000 Premium 10Gbps IP/MPLS/L2VPN Foundation License. Built for environments where service continuity and traffic segmentation matter, this license supports the capabilities needed to run IP/MPLS and Layer 2 VPN services at 10 Gbps scale. For network teams managing carrier, metro, or large enterprise infrastructure, licensing is not a formality — it is what unlocks the operational profile of the platform. This foundation license helps maintain the service model required for routed transport, VPN separation, and consistent policy enforcement across the ASR 9000 family. It is a practical fit when the platform must carry revenue-critical or business-critical traffic without forcing a hardware refresh. Choose this license when you need to preserve the investment already made in Cisco ASR 9000 infrastructure and keep the network aligned to service requirements. It is suited to organizations that value deterministic behavior, long lifecycle planning, and a clean path for maintaining advanced routing services on an established platform.
