Cisco Umbrella Reserved IP - Subscription License

Unlock the full potential of Cisco Umbrella with the Reserved IP - Subscription License. This cloud-delivered security solution gives your organization a fixed outbound IP for traffic exiting your network and connecting to the Umbrella service. By pairing a stable IP with Cisco’s proven DNS-layer protection, you gain easier policy enforcement, streamlined compliance, and predictable costs through a flexible subscription model. The Reserved IP license is designed to simplify firewall and gateway configurations, enhance partner integrations, and support centralized management across multiple sites, branches, and remote workers. Whether you’re securing a distributed workforce, a multi-site enterprise, or a partner ecosystem, this license brings reliability, visibility, and control to your security posture while preserving the ease of administration through the Cisco Umbrella Admin Console. In today’s threat landscape, a fixed outbound IP plus world-class cloud security provides a foundational layer you can trust to defend users, devices, and data without adding complexity to your network operations.

• Fixed outbound IP for easy policy enforcement: A dedicated IP enables consistent firewall rules, IP-based access controls, SIEM integrations, and partner whitelisting, eliminating the guesswork and churn that come with dynamic IP addresses.
• Comprehensive cloud security stack: Combine DNS-layer protection with umbrella security features such as secure web gateway and cloud access security to block malware, phishing, and risky sites before they reach users or devices.
• Flexible subscription licensing with centralized control: Manage licenses, IP allocations, and multi-site deployments from a single admin console, with predictable renewals and scalable licensing to match organizational growth.
• Fast deployment with minimal disruption: No new hardware required; simply configure the Reserved IP in the Umbrella admin interface and apply policy to the appropriate networks, users, or devices for rapid protection.
• Compliance, governance, and audit readiness: IP-based controls support regulatory requirements and provide clear, auditable records of outbound traffic and policy decisions for security reviews and audits.
