Frequently Asked Questions
What is a perpetual license?
A perpetual license grants you the right to use the software indefinitely. Unlike subscription licenses, you own the license itself, though ongoing support and maintenance may require separate contracts or renewals.
What does 'Product Support' cover?
Product Support typically includes access to software updates, bug fixes, security patches, and technical assistance from the vendor for the specified term. It ensures you can maintain and troubleshoot the software effectively.
What happens after the 1 year of support expires?
After one year, your product support coverage will expire. You will continue to own the perpetual license, but you will no longer receive software updates, patches, or technical assistance from Cisco unless you purchase a new support contract.
