Certainly! Mixing traditional perpetual licenses with subscription licenses in the same Cisco Prime version 3.7 is indeed possible. To achieve this, you can follow these steps:

1. Access Cisco Prime: Log in to your Cisco Prime interface with administrative privileges.

2. Navigate to Licensing: Look for the licensing or license management section within your Cisco Prime interface.

3. Add Subscription License: In this section, you should find an option to add licenses. Select the option to add a subscription license.

4. Input Subscription License Details: You will need to provide the details of your Cisco DNA Advantage subscription license, including the license key or activation code.

5. Activate and Verify: Follow the prompts to activate the subscription license. After activation, verify that it's successfully added to your Cisco Prime.

6. Manage Licenses: In the license management section, you should be able to see both your traditional perpetual license and the newly added subscription license.

By following these steps, you should be able to mix both types of licenses within the same Cisco Prime version 3.7 instance. This flexibility allows you to leverage the benefits of subscription-based licensing while maintaining your existing traditional licenses.

Yes, if haven't done already, you have to convert perpetual to smart license and assign it to same account as your DNA term license.
