C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y licenses one Catalyst 9300L or Catalyst 9300LM switch with 24 ports for 3 years. The license is a Catalyst Essentials subscription for fixed-uplink 1G copper models. Network Essentials must be present on the switch. Catalyst Center management gains Advanced telemetry and visibility, Simplified Campus Automation, Day-0 network bring-up automation, Element management, and Basic Assurance. A Cisco Catalyst Essentials license carries base product-level hardware and software support, which the older Cisco DNA Essentials license does not. C9300LM-24U-4Y is the mini 24-port 1G copper host in the same fixed-uplink family. The port count must match the access-port count. The Catalyst 9300L license covers one stack member, so each 24-port member needs its own 3-year, 24-port subscription.

Features enabled by the tier are Advanced telemetry and visibility with Full Flexible NetFlow and EEM, Simplified Campus Automation, Day-0 network bring-up automation, Element management, and Basic Assurance. Network Essentials remains the prerequisite tier and provides Layer 2, routed access, sampled NetFlow, SPAN, RSPAN, and StackWise. C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y runs as a Smart Licensing Using Policy entitlement under Cisco Switching Licensing on IOS XE 26.2.1. At expiry, Network Essentials switching continues and the Catalyst Essentials term features and bundled support stop. RUM reporting follows the Next ACK deadline in show license status. Before the PO, confirm the port count and the installed tier on the switch with show license summary. Smart Licenses are transferable between the same types of devices. A stack consumes one entitlement per 24-port member.
This license is sold new only as a genuine Cisco license; licenses have no refurbished condition. The PO must carry the PID, quantity, term, and the customer's Smart Account and Virtual Account, and delivery is electronic within 1 business day of the PO. Order C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y with the switch PID, or against the expiring subscription for a renewal. The license is not returnable once delivered; order errors are corrected before delivery and terms apply. PO accepted, Net-30 for government, co-termination and multi-year quotes, and UK, EU, US, and MEA orders are supported.

A new 24-port Catalyst 9300L or Catalyst 9300LM switch order needs the Network Essentials hardware suffix and a 3-year Catalyst Essentials subscription. Specify the switch PID, C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y, quantity, term, Smart Account and Virtual Account before the PO.
An expiring Catalyst Essentials term on a 24-port fixed-uplink Catalyst 9300L or Catalyst 9300LM switch needs renewal before the subscription ends. Match the installed tier, port count and term, then provide the customer's Smart Account and Virtual Account before the PO.
A stack being standardized on Catalyst Essentials needs one entitlement for each 24-port member. Mixed 24-port and 48-port members need matching port-count licenses. Check every member with show license summary, then specify the license quantity that equals the number of 24-port members.
48-port fixed-uplink switches
A 48-port Catalyst 9300L or Catalyst 9300LM member needs the 48-port entitlement, and the 3-year Catalyst Essentials PID is C9300L-DNX-E-48-3Y.
Catalyst Advantage features
SD-Access, ThousandEyes entitlement, Cisco Spaces entitlement and ISE Advantage licenses sit in Catalyst Advantage, and a 24-port 3-year order takes C9300L-DNX-A-24-3Y.
Modular Catalyst 9300 switches
A 24-port Catalyst 9300 modular copper switch is a different fixed-versus-modular host, and the matching 3-year Catalyst Essentials PID is C9300-DNX-E-24-3Y.

C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y is the C9300L/LM Cisco Catalyst Essentials, 24-port 1G Copper, 3-year term license. C9300L names the fixed-uplink Catalyst 9300L and Catalyst 9300LM host family, DNX means Cisco Catalyst Software subscription, E means Essentials, 24 means 24 ports, and 3Y means 3 years.
C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y fits 24-port Catalyst 9300L and Catalyst 9300LM fixed-uplink switches: C9300L-24T-4G, C9300L-24T-4X, C9300L-24P-4G, C9300L-24P-4X, C9300L-24UXG-4X, C9300L-24UXG-2Q, and C9300LM-24U-4Y. 48-port C9300L and C9300LM switches take C9300L-DNX-E-48-3Y.
A Catalyst 9300L switch needs a Network Stack perpetual tier with the hardware and a term software subscription. A 24-port -E hardware PID carries Network Essentials, and C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y supplies the 3-year Catalyst Essentials subscription for Catalyst Center automation, monitoring and management.
Catalyst Essentials on Catalyst 9300L includes Advanced telemetry and visibility with Full Flexible NetFlow and EEM, Simplified Campus Automation, Day-0 network bring-up automation, Element management, and Basic Assurance. Catalyst Advantage adds SD-Access, ThousandEyes entitlement, Cisco Spaces entitlement and ISE Advantage licenses.
C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y needs Network Essentials on the switch. The -E license level pairs Network Essentials as the embedded Network Stack tier with the Essentials term subscription. A switch ordered with the -A hardware tier uses the Advantage subscription path instead.
C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y includes base product-level hardware and software support for the subscription term. The included support carries a four-hour TAC response objective for severity 1 and 2 service requests. Hardware replacements are accessed through the Catalyst warranty program.
C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y runs for 3 years. At expiry, Network Essentials switching continues and the Catalyst Essentials term features and bundled support stop. Add-on licenses must be renewed before term expiry to keep the subscription features available on the switch.
C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y is delivered electronically to the customer's Smart Account and Virtual Account. The order needs the Smart Account and Virtual Account. The switch uses Smart Licensing Using Policy, show license summary checks consumption, and RUM reporting follows the Next ACK deadline in show license status.
C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y renews as a term subscription for the same Catalyst 9300L or Catalyst 9300LM port count and tier. Cisco Networking Subscription allows renewal dates to align and new licenses to be added to an existing subscription while maintaining a common renewal date.
C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y is counted per 24-port switch member. A stack with three 24-port Catalyst 9300L or Catalyst 9300LM members needs three entitlements. Mixed stacks need the matching port-count license for each member before the PO.
C9300L-DNX-A-24-3Y adds SD-Access, ThousandEyes entitlement, Cisco Spaces entitlement and ISE Advantage licenses, which C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y does not carry. Choose Catalyst Essentials for basic automation, monitoring and management. Choose Catalyst Advantage for advanced automation, assurance and segmentation.
C9300L-DNX-E-24-5Y extends the same Catalyst Essentials entitlement to 5 years, while C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y runs for 3 years. Both cover one 24-port Catalyst 9300L or Catalyst 9300LM switch and require Network Essentials on the switch.
C9300L-DNX-E-48-3Y covers 48-port Catalyst 9300L and Catalyst 9300LM fixed-uplink switches, while C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y covers 24-port members. Both carry Catalyst Essentials for 3 years, so the buying decision is the switch access-port count.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y.
C9300L-DNX-E-24-3Y is offered new only as a genuine Cisco license. Delivery is electronic within 1 business day of the PO. The PO must carry PID, quantity, term, Smart Account and Virtual Account. The license is not returnable once delivered, and order errors are corrected before delivery.
