Hi All,

We have just received our DNA Center appliance. Need your help to configure initial setup and next steps.

What is the latest Image I need to use?

Do I need to connect this to one of the 9300 Switch or can I connect to any management 3750 switches?

We have advantage license.

Thanks & Regards
Ravindra Tumu

you can start with our Cisco DNA Center Resources link https://community.cisco.com/t5/networking-documents/cisco-dna-center-resources/ta-p/3648009

This should cover getting started and also training Videos. Hope this helps.

Also you can connect to any management switch but if you are planning to add the Network devices to DNA Center then please go through the below matrix link to understand what all network devices are supported.

I am not sure which Appliance you are using , below is the link for M5 where you can start with installing or configuring DNA Center.

An additional resource is at http://go.tklgo.cisco.com/ACC-ATX .  All DNA Center and ATX Accelerators are value-add for this quarter you can sign up for a DNA Center Getting Started session.  You will also have access to all past recordings from the url above.

There is also a follow-up to these lessons, to my understanding, which allows 1:1 coaching based on the attendee list, if needed.

Hope this helps sir.

I'm not able to view the old recordings. Can you help me on that?

Thanks
