Ecosystem Deal Registration now recognizes advisors and developers for the work that leads to a transaction, even when they don't transact it themselves, with a unified Distributor PVI following in early 2027. ACV growth rewards rise 50%, adopt rewards nearly double, and Preferred and Portfolio partners earn an extra 2% on top of the Cross Sell Bonus when they take a customer into a new Cisco architecture. Cisco IQ for Partners is now generally available, with a new MCP server and expanded APIs that managed services partners can use to build services and AI agents. Other releases include a CPI Deal Estimator, a beta AI Content Agent, Cisco Cloud Control with Model Foundry, networking MCP servers, and a quantum-safe Wi-Fi 7 access point. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
