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 Classic Cisco 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.
