A Cisco and Omdia study of 1,000 IT and network operations leaders found 51% already use agentic AI in NetOps production tasks, and 84% expect an AI-led operating model within 12 months. New capabilities include ThousandEyes synthetic testing built into supported cloud-managed Wi-Fi 6E/7 access points, Experience Metrics extended to applications, Agentic Actions now in controlled availability for autonomous remediation with human oversight, and Networking MCP servers that connect AI agents to live network data. Cisco is also adding post-quantum protection to Wi-Fi 7, wireless controllers and campus gateways, and extending Live Protect to wireless controllers, campus gateways and secure routers via IOS-XE 26.2.2. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What is Cisco Agentic Actions and what can it do on the network? Agentic Actions combines network and experience intelligence with AI agents and Deep Reasoning to prioritize issues, investigate root causes, and move toward remediation. Now in controlled availability, it gives operators visibility into agent reasoning and recommended actions, and lets customers progressively expand autonomy from approving individual changes to autonomous execution within defined policies, with human oversight. _Teams weighing how much autonomy to grant network agents can track rollouts like this one on daily.dev._ ### How is Cisco adding post-quantum security to Wi-Fi networks? Cisco is bringing quantum resiliency to Wi-Fi 7, wireless controllers, and campus gateways to protect wireless communications against future quantum threats. This extends alongside Live Protect, which is being expanded to wireless controllers, Campus Gateways, and Secure Routers, planned for IOS-XE 26.2.2, to reduce exposure to newly discovered vulnerabilities while fixes are tested and deployed. _Engineers planning a post-quantum migration path can follow infrastructure moves like this on daily.dev._ ### What do Cisco's Networking MCP servers let AI agents do? Networking MCP servers give AI agents a standardized, supported integration layer that connects directly to live network data, removing the need for partners to build and maintain custom integration code. They support troubleshooting, reporting, and compliance tasks, and complement Cisco AI Assistant and AI Canvas for extending network intelligence into broader enterprise workflows. _Developers building agent integrations with network data can follow MCP ecosystem updates on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Empowering Our Partners to Win in the Agentic AI Era](https://daily.dev/posts/empowering-our-partners-to-win-in-the-agentic-ai-era-uxu3iztnt) · Cisco · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [The workforce has AI agents.
