C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y licenses one Catalyst 9200 switch with 48 ports for 3 years. The DNA Essentials subscription needs Network Essentials on the switch and enables foundational automation, management, visibility and assurance in Catalyst Center. At expiry, Network Essentials forwarding continues and DNA Essentials capabilities stop until renewal. Cisco C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y is the Cisco DNA Essentials license for modular Catalyst 9200 access switches, and the 3-year, 48-port subscription matches C9200-48T-E, C9200-48P-E, C9200-48PL-E and C9200-48PXG-E orders. The buyer matches the 48-port count before selecting the term. A Catalyst 9200 DNA license stays portable within the Catalyst 9000 series. DNA Essentials carries Software Support Service, which the Network Stack perpetual license does not.
C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y price is $888.30. C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

DNA Essentials features on Catalyst 9200 add Network Plug and Play provisioning, Software Image Management, out-of-box reports, an overall health dashboard for 24 hours and cloud monitoring for Catalyst with limited visibility. The prerequisite is Network Essentials for a new switch order, and an Advantage hardware PID needs DNA Advantage instead. C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y starts with the switch shipment when attached to hardware and uses order date for a standalone renewal. The subscription is an unenforced, non-export subscription under Smart Licensing Using Policy on IOS XE 17.3.2a and later; RUM reporting is due every 90 days. The buyer checks show license summary, keeps one subscription per stack member, and keeps C9200 and C9200L stacks separate. Software Support Service covers TAC and software updates; hardware RMA uses Enhanced Limited Lifetime Warranty or a separate Smart Net Total Care contract.
C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y is sold new only as a genuine Cisco license; licenses have no refurbished condition. The PO carries the customer Smart Account and Virtual Account, and electronic delivery reaches that account within 1 business day of the PO. Before the PO, confirm the port count and installed tier with show license summary; returns are not returnable once delivered, and order errors are corrected before delivery. Order the license with the switch PID, or against the expiring subscription for a renewal. POs are accepted, Net-30 applies for government, co-termination and multi-year quotes are supported, and UK, EU, US and MEA buyers are covered.

A new 48-port access switch order pairs C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y with a C9200-48T-E, C9200-48P-E, C9200-48PL-E or C9200-48PXG-E hardware PID. The buyer specifies a 3-year term, Network Essentials, and the Smart Account and Virtual Account before the PO.
An expiring DNA Essentials subscription for a 48-port Catalyst 9200 can be renewed with the same term license before the end date. The buyer checks show license summary, confirms one license per stack member, and provides the Smart Account and Virtual Account on the PO.
A stack being standardized on Network Essentials uses one matching DNA Essentials term for each 48-port Catalyst 9200 member. The buyer keeps C9200 and C9200L members in separate stacks, matches each member's port count, and checks show license summary before the PO.
24-port Catalyst 9200 switches
The license covers 48 ports, so 24-port Catalyst 9200 Network Essentials switches take C9200-DNA-E-24-3Y for the same DNA Essentials tier and 3-year term.
Catalyst 9200L switches
The host series is Catalyst 9200, so 48-port Catalyst 9200L Network Essentials switches take C9200L-DNA-E-48-3Y for the fixed-uplink 9200L platform.
Network Advantage hardware
A new switch PID ending in -A needs an Advantage subscription, so 48-port Catalyst 9200 Network Advantage orders take C9200-DNA-A-48-3Y.

C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y is the C9200 Cisco DNA Essentials, 48-port, 3-year term license. C9200 marks the Catalyst 9200 host series, DNA marks the Cisco DNA subscription family, E marks Essentials, 48 marks port count, and 3Y marks the term.
C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y fits C9200-48T-E, C9200-48P-E, C9200-48PL-E and C9200-48PXG-E. C9200 24-port Network Essentials models take C9200-DNA-E-24-3Y. C9200 48-port Network Advantage models take C9200-DNA-A-48-3Y. C9200L 48-port models take C9200L-DNA-E-48-3Y. C9200CX uses 8-port or 12-port C9200CX DNA PIDs.
A Catalyst 9200 switch ships with Network Essentials or Network Advantage through the hardware PID suffix. A 48-port Network Essentials switch uses C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y for the DNA Essentials add-on subscription. A 24-port Network Essentials switch uses C9200-DNA-E-24-3Y. Network Advantage uses DNA Advantage.
DNA Essentials on Catalyst 9200 adds foundational automation, management, visibility and assurance capabilities in Catalyst Center. The tier carries Network Plug and Play provisioning, Software Image Management, out-of-box reports, a 24-hour overall health dashboard and cloud monitoring for Catalyst with limited visibility. DNA Advantage adds advanced assurance, analytics, segmentation and application visibility.
C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y needs Network Essentials on the switch for a new hardware order. The subscription tier must align with the hardware PID suffix. A Network Advantage hardware PID needs DNA Advantage, and C9200-DNA-A-48-3Y is the matching 48-port, 3-year term.
C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y includes Software Support Service with the DNA subscription. The entitlement carries TAC and software updates for the subscription stack. Hardware replacement stays with Enhanced Limited Lifetime Warranty or a separate Smart Net Total Care contract, so the DNA license adds software support that the Network Stack license lacks.
C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y runs for 3 years from the switch ship date when attached to hardware, or from order date when ordered standalone. At expiry, DNA Essentials capabilities need renewal before continued use. Network Essentials remains perpetual, and the switch continues operating with base license capabilities.
C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y is delivered electronically to the customer's Smart Account and Virtual Account. The order needs the Smart Account, Virtual Account, hardware PID or serial number for a stock-fulfilled switch, and term. Activation uses Smart Licensing Using Policy, and the buyer checks show license summary.
C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y is renewable before the subscription end date. Order the same DNA Essentials term against the expiring subscription, or choose C9200-DNA-E-48-5Y or C9200-DNA-E-48-7Y when the renewal needs a longer term. Auto renewal is off for the software subscription order.
C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y is counted per switch member in a Catalyst 9200 stack. C9200 stacks support other C9200 members with the same license level. C9200L members use a C9200L stack and their own C9200L DNA licenses. The buyer checks every member with show license summary.
C9200-DNA-A-48-3Y adds advanced assurance, analytics, policy-based automation, segmentation and application-visibility capabilities that C9200-DNA-E-48-3Y does not carry. Choose DNA Advantage for a 48-port Network Advantage hardware PID. Choose DNA Essentials for a 48-port Network Essentials switch.
