New in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.0
Licensing Changes
Licenses to run Cisco Prime
™ Infrastructure 3.x (PI 3.x) and APIC-EM (solution apps such as the Cisco
®
IWAN app) are now offered
under one Cisco Enterprise Management 3.x License.
APIC-EM Solution Apps Licenses are right-to-use (RTU) licenses, and therefore, no license files are involved.
APIC-EM controller software and basic apps and services (PnP, PKI, topology, inventory) are offered free of charge.
PI 3.0 Lifecycle and Assurance Licenses are now combined into a single Management License.
These licenses are offered on a per-device basis (as in PI 1.x, 2.x) and are NOT node-locked.
They are available in single-device increments (no more PAKs of 25, 50, etc.).
PI 3.x Licenses are now linked to the category or sub-category of network devices (as in Cisco ONE
™ Software).
Examples include L-MGMT3x-LFAS-AP, L-MGMT3x-LFAS-3K, etc.
Customers deploying Prime Infrastructure for the first time should purchase the Cisco Enterprise Management 3.x License as
