Cisco ASR 9000 4-Port 100GE Advanced IP License

Extend the capability of ASR 9000 4-port 100GE line cards with an advanced IP license built for service-provider routing environments. This Cisco entitlement enables advanced IP functionality at the line-card level, giving network teams a controlled way to activate higher-value features where traffic scale, segmentation, and routing policy matter most. For infrastructure teams managing backbone, aggregation, or edge deployments, licensing at the line-card level helps match capability to demand without overcommitting across the chassis. That makes it easier to standardize feature access, preserve architectural consistency, and support growth as traffic patterns evolve. This license is a strong fit when the platform is already in place and the requirement is to expand what the hardware can do. It supports procurement models that prefer precise entitlement control, especially in networks where service tiers, route handling, and operational separation must stay predictable. For organizations investing in ASR 9000, this license helps protect the platform investment by enabling the advanced IP functions needed for demanding production networks.
