This 7-year license is engineered to provide predictable budgeting, uninterrupted access to Meraki’s advanced capabilities, and the assurance that your network stays protected and performant across all connected devices and sites.
- Cloud-first management and visibility: Manage every switch, access point, and security appliance from the Meraki Dashboard. Real-time dashboards deliver at-a-glance health, performance metrics, and security insights across all sites, empowering proactive troubleshooting, capacity planning, and rapid incident response. The centralized management model reduces operational overhead and yields faster rollout of new sites or changes with zero-touch provisioning and scalable administration for larger networks.

This extended term helps IT teams forecast expenditures accurately, avoid renewal gaps, and maintain a consistent security posture as your network evolves without disruptive licensing pauses or renewal surprises.
- Up to 24 ports supported for scalable deployments: The license covers licensing rights for up to 24 ports, making it ideal for mid-sized networks, distributed branches, or multi-device configurations. Whether used on a single multi-port switch or across several devices, the 24-port coverage ensures you can expand without reissuing licenses, simplifying asset management and compliance while preserving feature access across the entire deployment.
- Advanced security, analytics, and policy controls: With Meraki Advanced licensing, you gain access to enhanced security features, granular access control, and policy-based networking. Features may include threat protection, centralized security rules, content filtering, and application-aware controls that help you enforce compliance, reduce risk, and optimize network performance, all managed from a single pane of glass for consistency across sites.
- Automatic updates, comprehensive support, and reliability: The subscription ensures automatic firmware updates and ongoing access to Meraki support resources. This means new features, performance improvements, and security patches are delivered seamlessly, minimizing manual intervention and downtime while keeping your network aligned with the latest industry standards and best practices.
