Defender for Servers plan 1 and Plan 2
We are looking at deploying Defeder for Servers and I see in the documentation a Plan 1 and Plan 2 version. Select a Defender for Servers plan in Microsoft Defender for Cloud | Microsoft Learn. However when I check the current July price list for NCE I only see a single ProductID CFQ7TTC0QKW2 and no indication of a Plan level. Is the defult now Plan 2 under the ProductID shown?
Thanks

My understanding is that from the Defender for Cloud portal navigate to the environment settings and select the subscription where your servers are located.
In the servers section, click on change plan than you can see 2 options with the price for each plan per server.

Hi MBenton
From my understanding, it seems that you just need to enable Defender for Servers for a subscription and for a connected custom workspace

- MBentonBrass ContributorI don't believe I have a answer yet. It is this article where the confusion starts, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/defender-for-cloud/plan-defender-for-servers-select-plan. It specifically references "Defender for Servers" Plan 1 & 2. In the July price list for NCE I can find "Defender for Business Server" but no "Defender for Servers". What do I sell the customer who is asking for "Defender for Server Plan 2" ?
Thanks
