Hi my network guys,

Im a junior networkemployee and i must replace a broken swtich for a company for the 1st time.

The situation is: Meraki Switch sat-mill-01 is broken.

A new same model switch witch MAC ac:XX:XX:XX:4e:54

So the new switch ac:XX:XX:XX:4e:54 is connected to a other switch SAT-WERP-01 on port 2.

Could you tell me step-by-step.

Switch cloning after the RMA

Once you have received a replacement MS switch, you can clone your configuration from your old standalone switch to your new switch by following the instructions in this document 'Switch Cloning'.

If the switch to be replaced is a stack member, however, consult the instructions in our switch stacking documentation, under the section Replacing and Cloning Stack Members.
