Product Specifications : Cisco Meraki MS220-8 Cloud Managed Switch
Meraki switches are built from the ground up to be easy to manage without compromising any of the power and flexibility traditionally found in enterpriseclass switches.
Cisco Meraki switches are managed through an elegant, intuitive cloud interface, rather than a cryptic command line. To bring up a Meraki switch, just plug it in; there’s no need for complicated configuration files, or even direct physical access to the switch.
Meraki’s centralized management gives administrators deep visibility into the network and how it’s used. See which switches are near capacity across hundreds of sites. Find all configuration changes made by a certain person with instant search.
