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. 
Industry-Leading Cloud  
Management
Cloud management has a number of benefits that make it easier  
to build networks large and small:
•  Single pane of glass management of distributed switch  
deployments, wireless APs, and firewalls across multiple sites 
through the browser.
•  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.

•  Role-based administration and automatic, scheduled firmware 
upgrades over the web.
•  Regular feature updates and enhancements delivered on  
demand from the Meraki cloud.
•  No staging deployments
