how to install Cisco Smart Net Total Care - Service vxlan, 48 X 10g

Smart Net Total Care is a service rather than a traditional software package, so installation centers on enrollment, registration, and proactive readiness for VXLAN deployments. Follow these recommended steps to prepare and maximize value from the service:

• Verify eligibility and contract activation - Ensure your organization has an active Smart Net Total Care contract covering the Cisco devices participating in the VXLAN fabric, with the correct account details and billing information on file.
• Register devices and enroll in the portal - In the Cisco Smart Net Total Care portal, register each VXLAN-enabled device that will participate in the overlay network, linking them to the service contract to enable telemetry, health monitoring, and TAC access.
• Configure telemetry and monitoring - Establish baseline performance metrics and configure proactive monitoring so Cisco can receive health data, logs, and events that indicate anomalous behavior, congestion, or configuration drift across the 48 X 10G links.
• Coordinate with Cisco for deployment - Collaborate with your Cisco account team to align the service with your migration or upgrade plans. Confirm software compatibility, licensing requirements, and any prerequisites for the VXLAN fabric prior to production rollout.
• Plan patching and maintenance windows - Schedule software updates, firmware patches, and hardware replacement windows per Cisco guidance, including rollback and business continuity planning to minimize operational impact.
