We have two Cisco C9500-48Y4C switches which we have onboarded to Meraki monitoring. After a while one and later the other began "alerting" on Meraki dashboard with the error "The configuration for this device is out of date". The monitoring appears to be working fine, however, and the dashboard shows the expected monitoring data. I am not sure how this error/alert makes sense for a "Monitoring Only" scenario. Meraki support suggested we should try reloading the switches, but they are functioning as network core switches, so we are reluctant to do this, particularly without an understanding of exactly what is going on... Any ideas? Richard

I am also seeing something similar after upgrading to 29.4.1. Anyone know if an upgrade to 29.5 is worth a shot?

"And later this year you’ll be able to manage and configure your Catalyst 9300 switches in the Meraki dashboard." So will this be "a la MS390" where the ability to access IOS disappears and configuration is only possible via Meraki dashboard? Or will be Catalyst 9300 management via Merkai in effect modify the IOS config with SSH into IOS remaining available (e.g. for debugging and "advanced config" not available via Meraki dashboard?)

I am an IT Director at a school which has been Cisco for many years. Two years ago, we decided to replace aging Cisco switches and WiFi with Meraki equivalents. We trialed MS390, but at the time it was missing functionality we needed, so we deployed MS250/350. We needed to keep traditional Cisco switches at the core, to give flexibility around IPv6, complex ACLs, etc, so opted to migrate these to Cisco 9500 in our roadmap (as there are not Meraki equivalents). We really like Cisco's current direction of the travel, as we will now be able to integrate our Cisco 9500 core switches into the Meraki console for single-pane-of-glass network visibility / monitoring. Converged Cisco hardware, able to run IOS or Meraki, really makes sense at lots of levels. It gives customers choice and flexibility and simplifies supply chains, hopefully lowering costs. However, the bottom line here is that things will need to work far better than what has happened with MS390 which has been a "pilot" for converged Cisco/Meraki hardware. From what I can ascertain, MS390 is a rebadged 9300 running a Meraki management layer, and from discussion above doesn't seem like it has ever been properly stable.... I don't know what the problem is/was. Maybe the Meraki layer was simply "retrofitted" - so perhaps designing "ground up" in future with both usage cases in mind can yield better results. I want this to work, and certainly hope it will!
