Cisco ASR9000 IOS XR 64-Bit 3DES Software | Router Security License — XR-A9K-X64K9-07.9

Add encryption support to Cisco ASR 9000 routing environments with 64-bit IOS XR Software 3DES. This software entitlement is intended for organizations standardizing on Cisco carrier-grade routing and requiring cryptographic capability within the IOS XR operating environment. For infrastructure teams, the value is precision. Instead of broad software bundles, this license targets a specific platform and function, helping keep routing deployments aligned to security and compliance requirements. It is a practical fit for networks where encryption support must be matched to the installed base and operational policy. Because this is software licensing rather than hardware, procurement stays focused on the exact platform requirement. That matters in large routing environments where compatibility, entitlement control, and lifecycle planning all affect uptime and supportability. For teams managing ASR 9000 infrastructure, this license helps preserve consistency across the network stack while supporting secure transport requirements. Ideal For Enabling encryption support on Cisco ASR 9000 routers Maintaining secure transport requirements in carrier networks Standardizing IOS XR feature licensing across routing nodes Supporting compliance-driven network software procurement Why This Product 1 Targets Cisco ASR 9000 platforms instead of generic router software 2 Adds 3DES support for encryption-focused deployments 3 64-bit IOS XR compatibility aligns with platform requirements 4 Feature license model keeps entitlement scope narrow and controlled
