Cisco Support Signature for DCN Sec Lic N9500 Modular 5Y | Support — SVS-L2N9KSEC-M-5Y

Keep Cisco DCN security licensing on Nexus 9500 modular platforms under active support with a 5-year Cisco Support Signature term. This offering is designed for data center teams that need stable, long-horizon coverage for security-related software entitlements tied to modular switching infrastructure. A five-year support window is especially valuable in environments where platform refresh cycles are measured in years, not quarters. It reduces the administrative burden of frequent renewals and helps procurement teams lock in a predictable support horizon. For operations teams, it preserves a clear path to vendor assistance when issues affect licensed security functionality, policy enforcement, or service continuity. Cisco Support Signature is a practical fit for organizations that treat support coverage as part of the control plane for risk management. Rather than relying on short-term coverage that can lapse during budget cycles, this term supports continuity across planning, deployment, and steady-state operations. It is a strong choice when the cost of interruption is higher than the cost of maintaining long-term vendor support.
