Cisco NX-OS Advantage License for N9800 Module | Data Center, Perpetual — CON-L1DS-NXOS2ADD

Keep N9800 module deployments aligned to the NX-OS Advantage software entitlement they require. This Cisco perpetual license is intended for data center teams that want predictable ownerJTFp, stable platform access, and a clean path for maintaining the software posture of the switching environment. For infrastructure groups standardizing on Cisco Nexus, the value is in continuity. A perpetual license avoids recurring subscription churn while preserving the software rights associated with the module. That makes budgeting easier, supports long-range lifecycle planning, and reduces friction when you are managing large installed bases across multiple racks or sites. This SKU is suited to procurement workflows where exact entitlement matters. It is a software licensing item, not a hardware component, and it is tied to the N9800 module family. If your environment depends on Cisco Nexus software alignment for operational consistency, this license helps keep that foundation in place without unnecessary complexity.
