WiFi7 Access Point Licensing

[ckuwajima]

I know that new WiFi7 access points uses the new unified licensing, but is it also possible to use existing DNA licenses?

If not possible, is there a (cost-effective) migration path from DNA to unified licenses?

When it comes to new licensing, I will be honest, its not easy to figure it out.  Your best bet, which I have always taken, is to work with your Cisco account manager and see what they can do.  They need you to also know what and how the licensing affects you so you can be prepared in the future when it comes to renewals.  They can also grant you license which can help with your budget for a specific time which usually is when you need to true-up your renewals.

Thanks!

Anyway, I will step back for a while, as Wi-Fi 7 is new and is not yet certified in my country (Brazil).

Step back because the 917x line-up is not yet complete.  

There are two more models that will be announced.
