Cisco C9600 DNA Cloud Advantage 5 Year License | Enterprise Licensing — C9600-DCL-A-5Y

Extend Cisco Catalyst 9600 capabilities with a five-year DNA Cloud Advantage license built for long-term operational control. This subscription supports network teams that need consistent policy enforcement, centralized management, and deeper assurance across high-value switching infrastructure. For enterprise cores, the value is not just feature access — it is operational discipline. Cisco DNA Cloud Advantage helps standardize configuration workflows, improve visibility into network health, and reduce manual effort across the switch lifecycle. That matters when the network carries business-critical traffic and downtime is measured in lost productivity, delayed transactions, and support escalation. This license is well suited to organizations that want predictable software coverage over a multi-year planning horizon. It supports procurement teams that prefer fixed-term licensing for budgeting clarity, while giving architects the control model needed to keep Catalyst 9600 deployments aligned with enterprise policy. For environments where the core must stay stable, auditable, and manageable at scale, this license provides the software foundation to do it.
