DNA Licensing

[abbasali5]

Hello,

Can we purchase Cisco Catalyst 9000 family of switches withou DNA license.  I believe that DNA essential was required for any Cat 9K family of switches, and even CCW would flag it if license it not selected, but don't know if DNA restriction is removed or still valid.

Please confirm?

Hello @abbasali5 

You can install and configure the Catalyst 9K with DNA advantage or essential license without having a DNAC appliance and will be working properly, but you cannot remove this restriction as I tried before with one project.
