Cisco IE 3100 DNA Essentials 24 Ports 3-Year Term License | Industrial Ethernet — IE3100-DNA-E-M-3Y

Keep IE 3100 deployments aligned with Cisco’s software-defined network operations model through a 3-year DNA Essentials term license for 24 ports. This license is built for industrial edge environments where consistent policy control, simplified management, and long-term planning matter more than one-time hardware purchases. For infrastructure teams, the value is in continuity. A term license helps preserve access to the software capabilities associated with the IE 3100 platform without forcing ad hoc renewals or fragmented coverage. That makes budgeting cleaner and reduces the risk of losing operational consistency across distributed sites. DNA Essentials is a practical fit for organizations standardizing on Cisco industrial Ethernet switching and looking to keep their edge network under a single licensing framework. It supports a more disciplined lifecycle approach for plants, utilities, transportation, and other environments where network changes must be controlled and documented. Choose this license when the switch hardware is already specified and the priority is maintaining the software entitlement that keeps the platform aligned with your operational standards.
