Routers requiring Success Track now?

[holinbo1]

It has been a couple years since we last bought a router, but picking up a couple 8200's and seeing multiple partners requiring Success Track licensing now. So we have to buy the router and Smartnet, DNA Essentials and Success Track now as all required. Is that accurate?

  I dont think so. You need Smartnet and license, that´s for sure. Success Track I see as optional.

The license, which is the most important, will depend on what you are going to use on the router. DNA Essencial may not be enough.

On the link below you can check the full spec.

Every new device you need to add DNA License mandatory to place order, rest all optional depends on the requirement.
