Cisco DCN Storage License for N9500 M4/M8/M16 1 Year Renewal | Licensing — C1-N9K-STRG-M-1R

Extend Cisco DCN storage licensing for supported N9500 M4, M8, and M16 platforms with a 1-year renewal-only term. This entitlement is built for organizations that already have the license in place and need to preserve coverage without altering the installed configuration. For teams running storage-dependent network infrastructure, renewal-only licensing helps protect operational continuity. It keeps the current entitlement aligned to the existing platform family, reducing the risk of coverage gaps during budget cycles, procurement reviews, or contract consolidation. That matters when the storage layer is part of a larger production environment and licensing precision is required. This license is a focused fit for Cisco N9500 deployments that need to remain on the same storage licensing path. Rather than overbuying or JTFfting to a broader package, it supports the exact renewal motion procurement teams expect: maintain the current entitlement, extend the term, and keep the environment covered.
