Cisco Meraki MS120-24 Switch

Overview:

Cloud-Managed Compact Switches

Cisco Meraki MS120 switches provide Layer 2 access switching ideal for branch and campus deployments. The MS120 series features a variety of power options designed to meet the diverse needs of large enterprise networks.

Cisco Meraki switches are built from the ground up for cloud management without compromising any of the power and flexibility traditionally found in enterprise-class switches.

All Cisco Meraki switches are managed through an elegant, intuitive cloud interface, rather than a cryptic command line. To bring up a Meraki switch, just plug it in; there’s no need for complicated configuration files or even direct physical access to the switch.

Meraki’s centralized management gives administrators deep visibility into the network and how it’s used. See which switches are near capacity across hundreds of sites. Find all configuration changes made by a certain person with instant search.

Industry-Leading Cloud Management

Cloud management has a number of benefits that make it easier to build networks large and small:

• True zero-touch device provisioning
• Virtual Stacking: manage up to thousands of ports from a single pane of glass
• Application-layer visibility with automatic operating system, client, and hostname fingerprinting
• Powerful live tools such as packet capture and cable test to isolate and troubleshoot network issues
• Alerts to indicate power loss, downtime, excessive Layer 1 issues, and configuration changes
• Role-based administration and automatic, scheduled firmware upgrades over the web
• Regular feature updates and enhancements delivered on demand from the Meraki cloud

Product Highlights

• Gigabit Access switching with 24- and 48- port models and PoE+
• 4 x 1G SFP uplink interfaces on all models
• Non-blocking switch with up to 104 Gbps bandwidth support
• Fanless design on select models
• Up to 740 watt PoE budget with PoE+ support and dynamic power allocation for powering APs, phones, cameras, and other PoE-enabled devices
• 8 dedicated QoS queues for converged voice, video, and data applications
• Low power consumption, quiet acoustic design, and shallow rack depth options, enabling flexible deployment in wiring closets as well as offices and classrooms
• Integrated mounting brackets for rack mounting

• DHCP snooping to prevent users from adding unauthorized DHCP servers on the network
• Rapid Spanning Tree, BPDU Guard, Root Guard, and other safeguards to help prevent misconfigurations and reduce convergence time
• Per-port VLAN configuration
• Multiple administrative roles with sophisticated security policy management

---

Network Troubleshooting & Automation

• Virtual Stacking lets administrators configure thousands of ports across a network in one dashboard action without having to physically connect stack members
• Configuration templates for rapid, zero-touch provisioning and auditing of all sites
• Network Topology for automatic and interactive network mapping
• Remote cable testing, packet capture, and client discovery
• Automatic and scheduled firmware upgrades for the complete network

Converged Voice, Video and Data Environments

The Meraki switch family is designed to unify data, voice, and video onto a single IP backbone. All Meraki switches support rich qualityof-service (QoS) functionality for prioritizing data, voice, and video traffic. The switches support eight class-of-service (CoS) queues on every port, enabling them to maintain end-to-end traffic prioritization.

PoE models provide power for VoIP telephones, IP security cameras, wireless access points (APs), and other IP devices. In addition, using CDP and LLDP, PoE power is intelligently budgeted to maximize the number of PoE clients supported.

Application Layer Visibility

Meraki is the only switch to include integrated Layer 7 fingerprinting. Identify hundreds of applications from business apps to BitTorrent and YouTube. User fingerprinting with Google-like search allows administrators to easily identify and control individual users, PCs, Macs, iPads, Androids, and other devices. This unprecedented visibility allows optimizing of network resources and maintaining optimal network performance.

Unified Software Architecture

Meraki switches run the same operating system used by all of Meraki’s products. The use of a common operating system allows Meraki to deliver a consistent experience across all product lines. When connected, MS120 switches automatically connect to the Meraki cloud, download configuration, and join the appropriate network. If new firmware is required, this is retrieved by the switch and updated automatically. This ensures the network is kept up-todate with bug fixes, security updates, and new features.
