Cisco Modular Add On Security E2N-N9K-SEC-M-B | Cloud Licensing — E2N-N9K-SEC-M-B

Add security capabilities in a way that matches the pace of your network architecture. Cisco Modular Add On Security is a licensing SKU built for Nexus 9K environments that need additional security coverage without a full platform change. The modular model gives infrastructure teams a cleaner way to expand protection as requirements evolve. This approach is useful when security needs are tied to specific segments, upgrades, or phased deployments. Instead of overbuying capacity up front, teams can add the licensing they need as the environment grows. That makes it easier to align budget, deployment timing, and operational priorities. For procurement teams, the value is straightforward: a Cisco licensing path that supports targeted expansion and avoids unnecessary platform replacement. For architects, it provides a practical way to keep security aligned with the network design already in place. The result is more precise spend, less disruption, and a better fit for enterprise environments that change over time.
