DNA Essential and Advantage

[fatalXerror]

Hi guys

I want to use the assurance in DNA Center particularly the Client 360, do I need to have a DNA Advantage or the DNA Essential will do? 

In the data sheet it is stated it should be DNA Advantage but some says Essential is enough to see the Client 360 and Device 360, so I am confused.

Thanks

You need Cisco DNA Advantage or Cisco Catalyst Advantage.

Hi @Flavio Miranda , I see because some says that Essential would be enough.

just to follow through, can I just use Advantage license at my access layer where my endpoints are connected for me to use the advance assurance like Client 360 in my DNAC?

Dont mix up Switch license with DNAC license, they have the same name but they have different meaning. You need to talk with Cisco or representative in order to get the proper licenses.

I am not mixing up the Network and DNA license, I know the difference between the two.

I just checked, it seems that Client 360 and Device 360 in DNAC are possible just using only DNA Essential license which is somehow strange because in the data sheet, it stated we need DNA Advantage, is this just marketing?
