Flexible consumption model (FCM)
What is FCM? How does FCM work?
• New IOS XR capability • Deploy router with minimum software
fill-rate
• Software licenses used to add capacity as
needed • Easily add capacity as demand increases
• Simplified license tracking • Global network visibility

Why use FCM? Why is FCM better?

• Reduced upfront capital and network-wide • On-going software innovation keeps IOS XR
pooling software cutting edge
• Software innovation • Only Cisco has network-wide pooling, license
portability, more visibility
• Investment protection
