Catalyst 8300 and WAN MACsec support question

[goranje]

Hello all,

Does Catalyst 8300 model -  "C8300-1N1S-6T" support WANMAC sec on C-NIM-2T with DNA-P-T2-A-5Y subscription?

I have read few Cisco official document and it is not 100% clear. Does someone has experience with this?

Best regards,

[Mark Elsen]

                       LANWAN – Flexible Layer 2 Switching and Layer 3 Routing

In addition to a wide range of NIM based Ethernet modules for a flexible and scalable combination of switched L2 ports and routed L3 ports, the Cisco Catalyst 8300 Series Edge Platforms also offer a new LANWAN module series which combines both capabilities. These new NIM based modules offer combined Layer 2 & Layer 3 connectivity with full Layer 3 feature parity to the embedded Layer 3 ports. LANWAN modules are offered as 8-port RJ45 modules ranging from 100Mbps up to 2.5Gbps mGig with 90 PoE capacity, plus a 4-port SFP+ NIM module with capacity for up to 10Gbps. In addition, LANWAN modules also support LAN MACsec for all ports operating in Layer 2 mode and WAN MACsec for all ports operating in Layer 3 mode. The introduction of LANWAN series modules offer unprecedented flexibility for the branch through higher density of Layer 3 ports, with options for higher PoE capacity and with HW-based MACsec for secure connections.
