C9200-24-E-A is a software upgrade for a 24-port Cisco Catalyst 9200 entitlement. Cisco defines the change as Network Essentials and Cisco DNA Essentials to Network Advantage and Cisco DNA Advantage.
This product code is not a Catalyst 9200 chassis, power supply, network module or cable. Match it to an existing 24-port C9200 asset and its current Essentials entitlement before ordering. The similar C9200L codes apply to the fixed-uplink C9200L family and are not this SKU.
The exact code shown here has no -3, -5 or -7 suffix. Do not infer a subscription duration from this page. The quotation and Cisco Smart Account order must identify the selected term and entitlement start date.
Verify the Smart Account and virtual account, map the electronic entitlement to the correct 24-port switch, and preserve the order and activation evidence. Confirm the resulting Network Advantage and Cisco DNA Advantage levels in the supported Cisco licensing workflow.
