C9200-24-E-A-3 is the three-year upgrade license for a 24-port Cisco Catalyst 9200. It moves the existing Network Essentials and Cisco DNA Essentials entitlement to Network Advantage and Cisco DNA Advantage.
Confirm that the target is a 24-port C9200, not a C9200L or 48-port unit, and that the asset currently has the Essentials tiers represented by the E-A upgrade path. This line supplies software rights only; it does not include a switch or uplink module.
The -3 suffix identifies the three-year order. Record the start and end dates, renewal owner and Smart Account destination before activation. Align renewal review with the switch software and support plan rather than treating the entitlement as a perpetual hardware feature.
Retain the Cisco order record, entitlement transaction and target serial mapping. After assignment, verify the Advantage tiers through the supported Cisco licensing workflow and document the state needed for future renewal or transfer.
