Workaround at the moment is when the page loads the "old" version click the ESC key to stop the page loading. Then you should be able to navigate around the tabs and between APs. If you have the device health tab don't click that or it will launch the "new" version and break the page again. ... View more

If I'm not mistaken I think the key difference would be this. And this is specifically for a Routed mode hub as Concentrator mode only has one interface/one route out from itself.   With a Routed mode hub if you select default route on a spoke it would send all traffic to the hub. But then traffic would egress back out of the hub WAN interface unless there was a more specific route to some other destination.   Whereas if the hub has a 0/0 static route to a LAN side next hop and that's enabled in the VPN then traffic from the spoke would go to the hub then follow the next hop to the LAN side IP.   Others can check my work and chime in if I'm off base.   I've tried to capture the main points & differences in this deck ...

As of today you can opt for Subscriptions if it's a net new purchase/deployment (no existing org and licensing in place) or if you're on Co-term and it's due for renewal.   Once an Org is shutdown you can't do much. The dashboard will show as shutdown when you login. And most functions stop working. I think? switches maybe still pass traffic. It's been forever since I tested a shutdown org to see what if anything functions.   Maybe someone else with recent experience can chime in. ... View more

Using breakout switch(es) for automatic failover would be ideal vs. relying on physically moving cables to restore service.   Now whether you do this with one switch, two switches, cloud managed switches, non cloud managed switches, dedicated switches, dual purpose "inside" switches like your #2 diagram shows, etc. you're never going to find one agreed upon design. People have their preferences and beliefs and you need to find the right solution to fit your requirements (cost, manageability, redundancy).   I will refrain from saying what I'd do and leave it to others here to offer their advice and experience on what's worked for them. ...
