Cisco Meraki's per-device licensing model provides customers with the flexibility to assign licences directly to specific devices or networks. This allows IT teams to manage shared or individual expiration dates across devices, networks, or organisations, tailoring it to your business needs.
Per-device licence LIC-MX250-SEC-5YR, offers several key features and benefits:
LIC-MX250-SEC-5YR Licence True-Ups (Shared Expiration Date)
For customers aiming to synchronise expiration dates across devices with varying expiration dates, one-day licence SKUs are available. These SKUs can be applied to adjust expiration dates to match or extend the furthest expiration date among devices.
For instance, if a customer has two devices, one expiring on January 1, 2020, and another on January 31, 2020, they can purchase (30) one-day SKUs to align the first device's expiration with the latter.
It's important to note that licence time cannot be split and applied across multiple devices. For instance, if a customer has an additional one-year licence and 12 devices, they can only apply it to one device, not distribute it for one month across 12 devices.
MX Licence Variants
The MX security appliance offers three licensing options: Enterprise, Advanced Security, and Secure SD-WAN Plus. It's important to note that the selected licensing edition must be consistent across your organisation. In other words, you can have all 25 appliances using either Enterprise Edition, Advanced Security Edition, or Secure SD-WAN Plus Edition, but you cannot have a mix such as 20 appliances using one edition, 5 using another, and 3 using the third edition. If you intend to utilise different editions for various appliances, you'll need to create three separate organisations: one for appliances with Enterprise Edition, another for those with Advanced Security Edition, and a third for appliances using Secure SD-WAN Plus Edition.
