Cisco Security License for Fixed Platforms | NX-OS, Enterprise — NXOS-SEC-XF=

Keep fixed-platform Cisco environments covered with a security license aligned to NX-OS deployments. This entitlement is intended for teams that need to maintain security functionality on supported fixed platforms while keeping licensing straightforward for operations and procurement. It is a practical fit when platform consistency matters and the organization wants a clear commercial path for maintaining protected network infrastructure. For enterprise teams, the value is in precision. Rather than bundling broad capabilities that may not match the deployment, this license is focused on the fixed-platform use case, helping standardize how security coverage is assigned and renewed. That makes it easier to manage lifecycle planning, maintain policy continuity, and keep platform-specific entitlements visible to both operations and purchasing. Choose this license when your environment depends on fixed Cisco hardware and you need a security entitlement that fits the platform class. It supports disciplined asset management and helps avoid gaps in coverage during refresh cycles, expansions, or compliance-driven renewals. For organizations with established Cisco infrastructure, it provides a clean way to keep security licensing aligned to the systems already in production.
