Change: Added note that MX75, MX85, MX95, MX105, MX250, and MX450 will have a performance boost (up to 3x with no additional cost) enabled by default in MX 18.2 and above firmware release; added "AnyConnect Enhancements".

SSID Tunneling and Layer 3 Roaming - VPN Concentration Configuration Guide

Change: In case the MX is used as VPN concentrator it is recommended that the MX is not configured for NAT. However, an exception is made for virtual MX (vMX) devices in cloud environments where broadcast traffic limitations can impact network functions. In such cases, deploying vMX in Routed mode is recommended.

MS:

Catalyst 9300/X/L-M Series Installation Guide

Change: Added C9300L/X-M models; added note that the included video will link to a MS390 but the steps and information are the same for the C9300-M; added differentiation between soft and factory reset.

Switch Stacks

Change: Added C9300/L/X-M models; added note "If the Active stack member is replaced there will be a short loss in connectivity when it is powered down while a new Active member is elected"; added MS130.

Small-Form Factor Pluggable(SFP) and Stacking Accessories

Change: Added accessories for new C9300/L/X models.

Catalyst 9300-M Datasheet

Change: Updated accessories table; added fiber models.

Getting started: Cisco Catalyst 9300 Management with Meraki Dashboard

Change: Added note that the C9300-NM-2Y module requires CS16GA2firwmare (Feb '24) for management. When the software is available, customers might still need to unseat the module to bypass the compatibility checks during migration. After full migration and dashboard connectivity, re-insert/install the module (hot-swappable).

Port Schedules

Change: Added note that each network can have at most five port schedules.

MS Mid-Mount Mounting Brackets

Change: Updated "Compatible Switch Models" to include MS130 (except the 8-port and 12-port models).

MR:

Wi-Fi Personal Network (WPN)

Change: Added section "Supported Authentication Types"; added step-by-step user onboarding example.

Setting a WPA Encryption Mode

Change: Added warning that WEP is deprecated in MR 30.X and newer firmware. Limited configuration options still exist when using the old Access control page (Wireless > Configure > Access control > View old version > WPA encryption mode) until this page is deprecated.

Channel Bonding

Change: Added note that Channel bonding is not possible for 2.4GHz. Using anything other than 20MHz channels in 2.4GHz is not practical in real deployments as no clients negotiate 40MHz bonding in the 2.4GHz band.
