Cisco Crosswork Hierarchical Controller Level 1 to 2 Upgrade | IT Management — HCO-P-RTU-T-L2-UPG

Move from foundational controller capability to a more capable Crosswork operating model with this Level 1 to Level 2 upgrade. Designed for Cisco network teams that need stronger hierarchy, clearer operational control, and a better fit for larger or more complex environments, this license step extends the value of an existing deployment without introducing a new platform. This upgrade is suited to organizations standardizing on Cisco Crosswork for network automation and control, where the next step in maturity is about structure, scale, and operational discipline. It helps align the platform with expanding infrastructure demands while preserving the investment already made in the original deployment. For teams managing multi-domain networks, the difference is practical: more room to organize operations, better support for growth, and a licensing path that keeps the environment consistent. That matters when procurement needs a clean upgrade path and engineering needs continuity across the stack. Because this is a Cisco software upgrade license, it is intended for environments already using the Crosswork platform and looking to advance capability without disruption. It is a precise way to extend platform value while keeping architecture and vendor alignment intact.
