Ordering information
Tables 1 through 4 provide ordering information for the Cisco® wireless access points. To place an order, visit the Cisco Ordering homepage. To download software, visit the Cisco Software Center.
Note:
Beginning with Wi-Fi 7 products (currently, the 9178, 9176, and 9172 Series), Cisco Wireless access points are global use access points. This means that you are no longer required to order using regulatory domain codes or management mode-specific part numbers. Global use access points automatically onboard to the network management mode of choice, determining the physical locality upon install. Information on licensing for Wi-Fi 7 products is in Table 6.
Customers are responsible for verifying approval for use in their individual countries. To verify approval that corresponds to a particular country, or the regulatory domain used in a specific country, visit https://www.cisco.com/go/compliance.
Regulatory domain approval occurs in phases. As they are approved, the part numbers will be available on the Cisco Global Price List (GPL).
Regulatory domains: (x=regulatory domain).
When ordering the Cisco Catalyst 9166, 9164 and 9162 Series Access Points, a choice must be made on AP deployment/management. For on-premises management -x part number should be ordered, for cloud use -MR.

Licensing
The Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers require Unified Licensing or Smart Licensing.
No licenses are required to boot up a Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controller. However, each access point that connects to the wireless controller requires a license to be entitled to connect and for full radio functionality.
Two kinds of licensing are available:
Cisco Wireless unified licenses are available with Cisco Networking Subscriptions. Unified licenses are required for Wi-Fi 7 APs. Unified licensing entitles the user to both cloud and on-premises management of their APs.
Cisco Smart Licensing is a term-based licensing model available for 6E and earlier APs.
To deploy unified licensing or Smart Licensing on a WLC, you must first set up a Smart Account on Cisco Software Central (software.cisco.com).
For more detailed overview on Cisco Licensing, go to cisco.com/go/licensingguide.
SLR mode
Specific License Reservation (SLR) is a feature used in highly secure networks. It provides a method for customers to deploy a software license on a device (product instance) without communicating usage information to Cisco. There will be no communication with Cisco or a satellite. A license is reserved for every controller. It is node-based licensing.
Multiple levels of license are supported on the Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers. The controllers can be configured to function at any one of these levels.
Cisco Wireless or Cisco DNA Essentials: At this level the Cisco DNA Essentials feature set will be supported. The former Network Essentials (NE) feature set is included within this feature tier.
Cisco Wireless or Cisco DNA Advantage: At this level the Cisco DNA Advantage feature set will be supported. The former Network Advantage (NA) feature set is included within this feature tier.
For customers who purchase Cisco Wireless or Cisco DNA Essentials, Network Essentials will be supported and will continue to function even after term expiration. And for customers who purchase Cisco Wireless or Cisco DNA Advantage, Network Advantage will be supported and will continue to function even after term expiration.

Page 42 of 46

Initial bootup of the controller will be at the Cisco Wireless/Cisco DNA Advantage level. Smart Accounts A Smart Account is a central data repository that provides visibility and access control to all the Cisco software licenses and entitlements across an organization. Smart Accounts allow customers to store, manage, and move assets across locations and devices and begin to use them immediately. Smart Accounts are required for enabling Cisco Smart Software Licensing.
After a Smart Account has been set up, customers have the flexibility to create subaccounts (virtual accounts) to help manage licenses for departments, areas, or locations within their organization. Licenses can be pooled within virtual accounts as needed. Smart Accounts support role-based user access controls, which allow the delegation of authority to account administrators at the Smart Account level or at the virtual account level. In addition, customers can assign partner visibility and management rights to their virtual or enterprise-level accounts.
After purchasing a Cisco Catalyst controller up to day 1:
1) Create a Smart Account.
a) Please use the following link to create a Smart Account:
https://software.cisco.com/software/company/smartaccounts/home#accountcreation-account.
b) Go to Cisco Software Central at software.cisco.com.
c) An editable profile appears.
d) An email is automatically sent to the customer Smart Account administrator.
2) Register the Cisco Catalyst controller using the Smart Account.
Existing customers:
a) Deposit existing Cisco Wireless or Cisco DNA licenses, if any, into the Smart Account.
b) Leverage offers to migrate existing perpetual licenses to Cisco DNA licenses.
New customers:
a) Purchase Cisco Wireless or Cisco DNA licenses for access points connecting to the Cisco Catalyst controller.
3) Configure the license level on the box after bootup.

Additional information
Operations Exchange site featuring Smart Account overviews and training sessions: Navigate to the Smart Account Resources panel on the page.
Smart Licensing
Unified licensing and Smart Licensing are cloud-based approaches to licensing. The solution simplifies the purchase, deployment, and management of Cisco software assets. Entitlements are immediately deposited into the customer's virtual account for use. This eliminates the need to install license files on every device. Products that are smart enabled communicate with Cisco to report license consumption. The primary location for managing product registration and monitoring Smart License consumption is Meraki Dashboard or the Cisco Smart Software Manager. License ownership and consumption are readily available to help customers make better purchase decisions based on consumption or other business needs.
Smart Licensing for Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers is enabled starting with the 16.10.1 release.
Unified licensing for Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers is enabled starting with the 17.15.2 release.

Cisco Software-Defined Access (SD-Access)
SD-Access enables policy-based automation from edge to cloud with foundational capabilities using controllerbased architecture, including design with validated templates, simplified device deployment, unified management of wired and wireless, network virtualization with segmentation, group-based policies, and context-based analytics.
SD Access can be enabled via Cisco DNA Advantage. The solution needs Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) licenses, which can be bought a-la-carte or through the Cisco DNA Expansion Pack. The Cisco DNA Expansion Pack is a flexible way to purchase Cisco ISE, Cisco Spaces, Cisco ThousandEyes, Cisco Secure Network Analytics (Stealthwatch) and other licenses, appliances, and services to enhance your Cisco Networking solutions.
