There are three types of licenses in Cisco Crosswork Planning:

  • CP_RTM_ESS: You can choose to have either one license or a number of licenses equal to the number of nodes in the network. Cisco Crosswork Planning Collector application functions even if there is only one license. However, for Cisco Crosswork Planning Design application, the count must match the number of nodes in the network. This is necessary for the tools and initializers to function correctly.

  • CP_RTU_ESS: A count of 1 is sufficient for both Cisco Crosswork Planning Collector and Design applications to function correctly.

  • CP_RTU_ADV: A count of 1 is sufficient for both Cisco Crosswork Planning Collector and Design applications to function correctly.

Click Save.

The system updates and applies the number of licenses.
