Catalyst 9200L-M Datasheet

Overview

The Catalyst 9200L-M addresses the most demanding enterprise applications by combining the simplicity of the Meraki dashboard with powerful switching hardware. To satisfy high-bandwidth applications and the deployment of high-speed wifi access points, the Catalyst 9200L-M provides multigigabit ports, 80GB stacking with either four fixed 1G/10G or two fixed 25G uplinks. The Catalyst 9200L-M delivers resiliency with fast stack convergence. The Catalyst 9200L-M provides Adaptive Policy using an over-the-wire tag which segments traffic into security groups to deliver scalable security. The Catalyst 9200L-M is integrated under the Meraki dashboard to provide a simply powerful solution to the most demanding wired access applications.

Adaptive Policy provides simple & scalable security policies to segment traffic using Security Groups. Security Groups are created in the dashboard using natural language such as “IOT device” & “Guest.” The security policy intent (e.g., Permit or Deny) is then simply provisioned between Security Groups which results in the segmentation of each group’s traffic. By making security policy management intuitive and scalable relative to legacy IP-address based Access Control Lists, Adaptive Policy empowers operators to confidently secure their network traffic independent of future network changes.

A Catalyst 9200L switch can also be migrated to a Meraki-managed persona, where it would function as its Catalyst Meraki 9200L-M equivalent. For details on the migration process, please refer to our Getting started: Cisco Catalyst 9200 with Meraki Dashboard guide.

Catalyst 9200L-M Licensing

The Catalyst 9200L-M license applies to all C9200L hardware platforms. Catalyst 9200L-M license structure includes two feature tiers: Enterprise and Advanced. As with all Meraki managed switches, every Catalyst 9200L-M license is available in 1, 3, and 5 year terms.

Catalyst 9200L-M License Structure	24-Port	48-port
Advanced Features	LIC-C9200-24A	LIC-C9200-48A
Enterprise Features	LIC-C9200-24E	LIC-C9200-48E

The features available with advanced licensing are:

In the Co-term licensing model (most existing Organizations), an Organization must either have all Catalyst 9200L-M Enterprise or all Catalyst 9200L-M Advanced licenses - they cannot be mixed. In the Per-device licensing model, a mix of Enterprise and Advanced can be added to a single Organization, but certain features may require all devices in a Network to have Advanced licenses, e.g. Adaptive Policy.

Note: MS390s and or Catalyst 9300/L/X-M existing in the same co-term Organization will require the same license edition (either Enterprise or Advanced) as the Catalyst 9200L-M. License types cannot be mixed and will result in an incompatible license error.

For more information on licensing, refer to Meraki Licensing Models article.

Subscription licensing is also available for the Catalyst 9200L-M switches

Cabling Best Practices for Multi-Gigabit operations: While Category-5e cables can support multigigabit data rates upto 2.5/5/10 Gbps, external factors such as noise, alien crosstalk coupled with longer cable/cable bundle lengths can impede reliable link operation. Noise can originate from cable bundling, RFI, cable movement, lightning, power surges and other transient event. It is recommended to use Category-6a cabling for reliable multigigabit operations as it mitigates alien crosstalk by design.
