Cisco Meraki MS120-24
Cloud Managed Switching for the Small Branch

Features:

Branch & Campus Access

• PoE and PoE+ models available for device level powering
• Quality-of-Service (QoS) to prioritize mission critical traffic such as voice and video
• Voice VLAN support for simplified VoIP deployments
• CDP/LLDP with detailed neighbor discovery and visibility
• Port Mirroring support for monitoring network traffic at line rate
• IGMP Snooping to optimize network performance for multicast applications
• Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) for high-capacity trunking

Network Security

• IEEE 802.1X, MAB, and Hybrid authentication support for wired access control with RADIUS server monitoring
• Port security and MAC whitelisting
• Change of Authorization (CoA) and RADIUS accounting support
• DHCP snooping to prevent users from adding unauthorised 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.
