Access Manager going GA

[rhbirkelund]

So it seems Cisco is pushing the button and making Access Manager GA. It's going really fast now, as this was just published yesterday, but also it seams rather silent.

Cisco Access Manager is available in Early Access and General Availability (GA) on November 10, 2025. Enable Early Access for your Meraki organizations by opting in under the Organizations > Early Access menu.

Early Access will end at GA then the Access Manager menu will be removed and not restored until you claim Access Manager licenses (subscription or trial). Contact your Sales Representative, reach out to the Sales Team, or complete a trial form to register for a free evaluation. Any existing configurations and data from Early Access will remain and endpoint authentications will continue based on those configurations and policies. No changes will be possible until an Access Manager license is claimed.

So from November 10, Access Manager will no longer be available as Early Access, and inorder to use Access Manager you will require a License.

Hmm, it will be interesting to see what happens with Access Manager in my Per Device Licensing organisation...

Apparently, what is also not written, is that post November 10, it will enter a Grace Period. Access Manager will continue to work for 30 days, but the menu item will disappear, so no config/tshoot will be available.

I've removed all my config and disabled it to be safe as I don't want hidden config being left behind!
