Level 2

Hello

I need help as i want to migrate/re-image these Switches which are C9300 UXM and C9300-48P to CLI as i need to implement as AGGR & MGMT SW.

I want to migrate them to Catalyst so i can manage with Catalyst Center as they are currently being managed by Meraki Dashboard. I have integrate Meraki dashboard with Catalyst Center - DNAC can only see AccessPoint but not the switches..

Best Regards.

Migrating to DNA management mode

To migrate your Catalyst switch(es) to DNA management mode, contact Meraki Support. To be migrated, a switch must be online and connected to the Meraki dashboard.

Migration will factory default the switch and all configuration.

When operating in the Meraki-managed mode, Catalyst switches use firmware customized for cloud connectivity.

Once the migration to DNA or CLI managed mode is complete, please be sure to install a supported IOS-XE software version on the switches before deploying them in production networks.

I am not a Cisco employee. My suggestions are based on documentation of Meraki best practices and day-to-day experience.

Please, if this post was useful, leave your kudos and mark it as solved.

Thank you very much for your response.

I have engaged support and will also follow the steps you highlighted so i can work with cisco support once they respond.
