Cisco IE 3100 DNA Essentials 24-Port 7-Year License | Enterprise — IE3100-DNA-E-M-7Y

Keep your IE 3100 deployment aligned to a longer planning horizon with a 7-year DNA Essentials term license for 24 ports. This license model is designed for infrastructure teams that want to standardize access-layer software coverage, reduce renewal overhead, and lock in a clearer cost profile across the deployment lifecycle. For organizations managing distributed industrial or enterprise edge networks, a multi-year term can simplify budgeting and reduce the operational friction of short renewal cycles. It also helps preserve continuity for the features tied to the DNA Essentials entitlement on the supported platform, making it easier to keep the environment consistent as sites expand or refresh. This is the right fit when the hardware is already selected and the priority is to maintain software entitlement over time rather than re-evaluate licensing every year. The 24-port scope makes it straightforward to map coverage to the installed switch footprint, while the 7-year term supports longer asset planning and procurement efficiency.
