Cisco Load Sharing Preferred Support 2 Yrs | Support Subscription — SP-INF-LS-247-2Y

Maintain support coverage for load-sharing services with a 2-year Cisco Preferred Support subscription. In distributed environments, load balancing is not a convenience feature — it is part of the availability model. This support term helps keep the underlying service covered so teams can respond with vendor-backed assistance when the load-sharing layer affects production traffic. Preferred Support is a practical choice when the service sits in the path of uptime, failover, or traffic distribution. It gives infrastructure teams a defined support relationJTFp for the covered solution, helping reduce uncertainty when issues arise and keeping operations aligned to a clear service lifecycle. Choose this subscription when the cost of degraded traffic distribution, delayed troubleshooting, or unsupported service coverage outweighs the value of a shorter-term option. It is designed for organizations that want predictable support for a critical infrastructure function without overbuying beyond the required term.
