Cisco LIC-MRP-MANAGER= MRP Manager for IE Switching | Cisco Licensing — LIC-MRP-MANAGER=

Preserve network continuity in industrial Ethernet deployments with Cisco MRP Manager functionality for IE switching. Built for environments where a brief interruption can affect production, this license adds the control needed to manage ring behavior and support predictable recovery across Cisco IE switching infrastructure. For infrastructure teams, the value is not just feature access — it is operational confidence. MRP Manager functionality helps coordinate redundancy behavior in ring-based topologies, making it easier to maintain service continuity across connected devices and downstream systems. That matters in plants, utilities, transportation, and other environments where switching decisions must be consistent and recovery must be fast. As a Cisco software license, LIC-MRP-MANAGER= fits organizations already invested in Cisco Industrial Ethernet switching and looking to extend the capabilities of that platform without changing hardware. It is a practical choice when you need a specific control-plane function rather than a broader bundle, and when the cost of downtime outweighs the cost of licensing precision. Ideal For Industrial Ethernet ring deployments requiring managed redundancy Cisco IE switching environments supporting production network continuity Facilities standardizing on perpetual Cisco software entitlements Operations teams adding MRP Manager capability to existing Cisco switching Why This Product 1 Purpose-built for Cisco IE switching rather than general-purpose networking 2 Perpetual licensing suits long-life industrial infrastructure planning 3 Targets ring resilience instead of broad feature bundles 4 Adds a specific control-plane function without hardware replacement
