C9300-DNX-A-48-3Y licenses one Catalyst 9300 switch with 48 ports for 3 years as a Catalyst Advantage subscription. The switch needs Network Advantage as the installed network tier. Catalyst Advantage adds advanced automation, analytics, segmentation, assurance, security, application visibility and fabric management through Catalyst Center. The Cisco Catalyst Advantage license also carries Cisco ThousandEyes Network and Application Synthetics, Cisco Spaces Extend and 10 Cisco ISE endpoint sessions for Catalyst 9300. Catalyst Essentials lacks those Advantage entitlements. The 3-year, 48-port subscription fits modular-uplink copper Catalyst 9300 access switches with 48 access ports. At expiry, Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding continues under the perpetual Network Advantage tier, and the subscription features, innovation and support need renewal.

A new Catalyst 9300 access switch order needs one software subscription for each 48-port copper switch. The buyer specifies C9300-DNX-A-48-3Y with the hardware PID, Network Advantage tier, 3-year term, Smart Account and Virtual Account before the PO.
An expiring Catalyst Advantage subscription needs renewal before the 3-year term ends to keep subscription features, support and innovation active. Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding continues under Network Advantage at expiry, and the buyer provides the existing subscription details and delivery target.
A site standardizing on 48-port Catalyst 9300 modular-uplink copper switches uses one Catalyst Advantage term per switch. Mixed 24-port, 48-port fiber or C9300L members need their own matching PIDs, so the buyer checks every member PID and port count.
24-port Catalyst 9300 switches
The license covers 48-port Catalyst 9300 switches. A 24-port Catalyst 9300 Advantage copper order uses C9300-DNX-A-24-3Y for the same 3-year term.
48-port Catalyst 9300 fiber switches
The license covers copper Catalyst 9300 models. A 48-port 1G fiber Catalyst 9300 Advantage order uses C9300-DNX-A-48S-3Y for the matching term.
C9300L fixed-uplink switches
The license fits C9300 modular-uplink switches. A 48-port C9300L or C9300LM Advantage copper switch uses C9300L-DNX-A-48-3Y.
Network Essentials installed tier
The Advantage subscription needs Network Advantage on the switch. A 48-port Essentials switch needs the C9300-48-E-A-3 upgrade before the subscription matches the installed tier.
