MS Switch Series
Overview
The Meraki MS is the world’s first cloud-managed switch bringing the
benefits of the cloud: simplified management, reduced complexity,
network wide visibility and control, and lower cost for branch and
campus deployments.

A Fresh Approach
Meraki switches are built from the ground up to be easy to manage
without compromising any of the power and flexibility traditionally
found in enterprise-class switches.
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 pre-staging.
In addition, Meraki’s centralized management system 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.

• Virtual stacking: manage up to tens of thousands of ports from a
single pane of glass.
• Layer 7 OS, client, and hostname fingerprinting.
• Powerful Live Tools such as cable test to isolate physical layer
issues.
• E-mail and SMS (text) alerts upon power loss, downtime, or
configuration changes.
