Cisco ASR 9K Smart License L3 VPN for 120G PAYG 9901 System | Enterprise — S-A9K-9901-120AIP=

Expand routed VPN services on the Cisco ASR 9901 with a smart license built for pay-as-you-grow operations. This license is designed for environments where capacity planning must stay aligned to actual demand, giving infrastructure teams a cleaner path to add L3 VPN capability without changing the underlying platform. For service providers and enterprise backbone teams, the value is in precision. Instead of committing to excess capacity up front, you can match licensing to deployment needs and preserve budget for the traffic growth that matters. That makes this a practical fit for staged rollouts, network modernization projects, and sites where service activation must stay tightly controlled. Cisco smart licensing also simplifies administration across the lifecycle of the system. It supports a more disciplined procurement model while keeping expansion tied to the ASR 9901 environment. For organizations standardizing on Cisco routing infrastructure, this license helps maintain operational consistency and avoids the friction of one-off entitlement management.
