/mcpCloud Security Umbrella Integration ● Umbrella Integration: Small to midsize networks reliant on managed service providers can now host Cisco Umbrella agent directly on their Catalyst 9200 series switches. This allows the business to easily customize their DNS filtering policies to prevent BYOD or IoT guest or corporate users from accessing malicious or inappropriate websites, without having to rely on the MSP to push the policies out. It also lets them optimize use of bandwidth by allowing direct cloud access for trusted apps. Requires Cisco DNA-Advantage License and Umbrella License per device. Full Flexible NetFlow ● Full Flexible NetFlow (FNF): Cisco IOS FNF is the next generation in flow visibility technology. It enables optimization of the network infrastructure, reduces operation costs, and improves capacity planning and security incident detection with increased flexibility and scalability. Catalyst 9200 Series switches are capable of up to 16,000 flow entries on 48-port,24, 12 and 8 port models. QoS ● Superior QoS: Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches offer Gigabit Ethernet speeds with intelligent services that keep traffic flowing smoothly, even at 10 times the normal network speed. Industry-leading mechanisms for cross-stack marking, classification, and scheduling deliver superior performance for data, voice, and video traffic at wire speed. Superior QoS includes granular wireless bandwidth management and fair sharing, 802.1p Class of Service (CoS) and Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) field classification, Shaped Round Robin (SRR) scheduling, Committed Information Rate (CIR), and eight egress queues per port. Smart operation Simplified Campus Automation Simplified Campus Automation is designed to optimize the discovery and configuration of devices in your network with a more streamlined simple and easy-to-use automation tool. With features such as simplified discovery, IT can discover devices within the network within just a few steps. Also available is a more streamlined GUI that provides a better simplified view of switch configurations and software details on a port- by-port basis. Cloud management with IOS XE Cloud management with IOS XE simplifies network operations by providing a centralized, intuitive dashboard that enables IT teams to manage, configure, and monitor all devices in real time. With features like zero-touch provisioning, automated firmware updates, and port-level visibility, cloud management reduces manual effort, minimizes errors, and delivers end-to-end visibility across the network. The Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series Switches provide operational flexibility in cloud management by offering the ability to choose the configuration source for each device managed from the Meraki dashboard. Configuration Source: Cloud: This operating mode offers full cloud management experience. Device configurations are managed via the Meraki user interface and delivered entirely from the cloud. This capability also offers a read-only Cloud CLI terminal to view the entire running configuration or perform advanced troubleshooting using IOS XE show commands.
