Understanding Cisco Licensing
Cisco's licensing can be complex. Here's a simplified overview to help you understand your options—and we're always happy to advise on the best approach for your specific requirements.
Meraki Licensing
All Meraki hardware requires an active subscription license to function. Licenses include cloud management, firmware updates, and support.
- Subscription – Flexible terms (36-84 months), hardware-agnostic
- Co-term – All devices share one expiry date
- Enterprise vs Advanced – Feature tiers available
Catalyst DNA Licensing
Catalyst switches support DNA licenses for advanced automation and analytics, but basic switching works without them.
- DNA Essentials – Automation, monitoring, security
- DNA Advantage – Full SD-Access, Assurance
- Smart Licensing – Flexible consumption model
What We Recommend
The right licensing depends on your management preferences, budget model and required features.
- Multi-site, lean IT team: Meraki subscription
- Single campus, experienced team: Catalyst DNA
- Budget-conscious: Catalyst without DNA
