Keep high-capacity transport services aligned with changing traffic demands using this Cisco software upgrade license for NCS 5500 L2VPN functionality on 36x100G-SE line cards. Built for service-provider and large enterprise routing environments, it supports advanced Layer 2 VPN requirements where scale, service continuity, and predictable operations matter. This license is intended for organizations that need to extend or maintain feature entitlement on deployed Cisco infrastructure rather than replace hardware. That makes it a practical choice when the network design is already standardized on NCS 5500 and the priority is preserving investment while enabling the right software capabilities for production traffic. For teams managing carrier-grade backbones, metro aggregation, or large routed transport domains, the value is in keeping the platform aligned with operational requirements and support coverage. It helps reduce friction during lifecycle planning, avoids unnecessary platform churn, and keeps critical services on a known Cisco architecture. Choose this option when you need a precise licensing path for a specific line-card configuration and want the confidence that comes with Cisco software support alignment.
