Cisco CNC-L1ELRTUSIA-K9 CNC Essential Lite RTU License — Level 1 Deploy 36–59M | RTU, Lite — CNC-L1ELRTUSIA-K9

Preserve core runtime behavior during early-stage and constrained deployments with the Cisco CNC Essential Lite RTU license (CNC-L1ELRTUSIA-K9). Intended for Level 1 deploys and identified by the 36–59M product grouping, this Lite RTU SKU secures minimal but critical orchestration services so you can evaluate, stage, and expand CNC functionality without exposing production workflows to avoidable risk. This license fits scenarios where a lightweight entitlement is preferable to a full RTM investment—pilot sites, proof-of-concept clusters, and initial branch rollouts. It keeps essential runtime functions active to maintain policy enforcement and basic telemetry while you plan broader coverage. Compared to larger RTM licenses, the Lite RTU option reduces upfront licensing scope and cost while still protecting operational continuity where it matters most. Coordinate with Cisco or A5 IT to confirm precise Level 1 scope and renewal cadence prior to purchase.
