Recommendation for Switch

[WangSteven02215]

As shown in the figure, Catalyst 9500 Switch and log server are installed in Cybersecurity Operation Center. I need to buy a switch to transmit syslog in each system, but I don't know what switch would be best. (The place marked multi-layer switch in the figure is where the new switch will be placed) For reference, switches from various manufacturers such as HP and Ruggedcom are used for each system. Could you please recommend switch for this configuration?

You can use the 9300 series for that. See link:

There is also the 9200 series:

Thank you very much indeed! In the system A ~ N, there are L2 and L3 switches. 

Are there any problems transmitting logs if both L2 and L3 switches are connected to the catalyst 9300? Sorry, I don't have expertise for network.

If you connecting all to 9500 and 9500 doing all working, other blocks only layer 2, save cost i go with Cat 9200.

but personally Cat 9300 good for a Longer life and more featured.

I do no see any issue - as Long as the device able to reach the SYSLOG Server.

If you have any specific concern we can address, if not-  all good.
