Do I need Cisco ISE VM Part # L-ISE-VM-K9= for ESXi installation

Question

Hi there,
Do I need the L-ISE-VM-K9 license to install Cisco ISE on an ESXi ?
Actually, Cisco ISE can be downloaded with an Eval License for 90 days.
I know, ISE license (e.g. Base License) is needed.
Thanks a lot.
Greetings,
Norbert
