SD-Access architecture
What if you could give time back to IT? Provide network access in minutes for any user or device to any application –
without compromise? SD-Access is the industry’s first policy-based automation from network edge to cloud. Your
foundation for your digital network, Cisco SD-Access. Built on the principles of the Cisco DNA, SD-Access provides end-
to-end segmentation to keep user, device and application traffic separate without a redesign of the network. It automates
user access policy so organizations can make sure the right policies are set for any user or device with any application
across the network. This is accomplished with a single network fabric across LAN and WLAN which creates a consistent
user experience anywhere without compromising on security.
There are many challenges today in managing the network to drive business outcomes. These limitations are due to
manual configuration and fragmented tool offerings. SD-Access provides:
● A transformational management solution that reduces operational expenses and enhances business agility
● Consistent management of wired and wireless network provisioning and policy
● Automated network segmentation and group-based policy
● Contextual insights for fast issue resolution and capacity planning
● Open and programmable interfaces for integration with third-party solutions
For an overview of key use-cases SD-Access addresses, refer to SD-Access Solution Overview.
● Automated device provisioning is the ability to automate the process of upgrading software images and
installing configuration files on Cisco Catalyst switches when they are being deployed in the network for the first
time. Cisco provides both turnkey solutions such as Plug and Play and off-the-shelf tools such as Zero-Touch
Provisioning (ZTP) and Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) that enable an effortless and automated
deployment.
● API-driven configuration is available with modern network switches such as the Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series. It
supports a wide range of automation features and provides robust open APIs over NETCONF and RESTCONF and
GNMI using YANG data models for external tools, both off-the-shelf and custom built, to automatically provision
network resources.
● Granular visibility enables model-driven telemetry to stream data from a switch to a destination. The data to be
streamed is identified through subscription to a data set in a YANG model. The subscribed data set is streamed to
the destination at specified intervals. Additionally, Cisco IOS XE enables the push model. It provides near-real-
time monitoring of the network, leading to quick detection and rectification of failures.
● Seamless software upgrades and patching supports OS resilience. Cisco IOS XE supports patching, which
provides fixes for critical bugs and security vulnerabilities between regular maintenance releases. This support lets
you add patches without having to wait for the next maintenance release.
Security
● Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA) is a unique capability for identifying malware in encrypted traffic coming from
the access layer. Since more and more traffic is becoming encrypted, the visibility this feature affords for threat
detection is critical for keeping your network secure at different layers.
● AES-256 MACsec encryption is the IEEE 802.1AE standard for authenticating and encrypting packets between
switches. The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series switches support 256-bit and 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard
(AES), providing the most secure link encryption.
● Trustworthy solutions built with Cisco Trust Anchor Technologies provide a highly secure foundation for Cisco
products. With the Catalyst 9300 Series, these technologies enable hardware and software authenticity assurance
for supply chain trust and strong mitigation against man-in-the-middle attacks that compromise software and
firmware. Trust Anchor capabilities include:
◦ Image signing: Cryptographically signed images provide assurance that the firmware, BIOS, and other software are
authentic and unmodified. As the system boots, the system’s software signatures are checked for integrity.
◦ Secure Boot: Cisco Secure Boot technology anchors the boot sequence chain of trust to immutable hardware,
mitigating threats against a system’s foundational state and the software that is to be loaded, regardless of a user’s
privilege level. It provides layered protection against the persistence of illicitly modified firmware.
◦ Cisco Trust Anchor module: A tamper-resistant, strong cryptographic, single-chip solution provides hardware
authenticity assurance to uniquely identify the product so that its origin can be confirmed to Cisco. This provides
assurance that the product is genuine.
Figure 6.
Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series StackPower
● High availability: The Catalyst 9300 Series supports high-availability features, including the following:
◦ Cross-stack EtherChannel provides the ability to configure Cisco EtherChannel technology across different members
of the stack for high resiliency.
◦ IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) provides rapid spanning tree convergence independent of
spanning tree timers and also offers the benefit of Layer 2 load balancing and distributed processing.
◦ Per-VLAN Rapid Spanning Tree (PVRST+) allows rapid spanning tree (IEEE 802.1w) reconvergence on a per-VLAN
spanning tree basis, providing simpler configuration than MSTP. In both MSTP and PVRST+ modes, stacked units
behave as a single spanning tree node.
◦ Switch-port auto-recovery (“err-disable” recovery) automatically attempts to reactivate a link that is disabled
because of a network error.
◦ The Catalyst 9300 Series platform delivers the best NSF/SSO resiliency architecture in a stackable solution with sub-
50-ms failover.
◦ Always-On wireless network with stateful switchover when wireless functionality is enabled on stack of Catalyst 9300
Series switches.
Flexible Netflow
● Flexible NetFlow (FNF): Cisco IOS Software FNF is the next generation in flow visibility technology. It enables
optimization of the network infrastructure, reduces operation costs, and improves capacity planning and security
incident detection with increased flexibility and scalability. The Catalyst 9300 Series is capable of up to 64,000
flow entries on 48-port and 24 port models and up to 128,000 flow entries on Multigigabit models.
Application visibility and control
● NBAR2: Next-Generation Network-Based Application Recognition (NBAR2) enables advanced application
classification techniques, accuracy with up to 1400 predefined and well-known application signatures and up to
150 encrypted applications on the Cisco Catalyst 9000 switches. The most popular applications included are
Skype, Office 365, Microsoft Lync, Cisco WebEx®, and Facebook, among many others that are predefined and
easy to configure. NBAR2 provides the network administrator with an important tool to identify, control, and
monitor end-user application usage while helping ensure a quality user experience and securing the network from
malicious attacks. NBAR2 leverages FNF to report application performance and activities within the network to
any supported NetFlow collector, such as Cisco Prime®, Cisco Stealthwatch®, or any compliant third-party tool.
QoS
● Superior QoS: The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series offers Gigabit Ethernet speeds with intelligent services that keep
traffic flowing smoothly, even at 10 times the normal network speed. Industry-leading mechanisms for cross-
stack marking, classification, and scheduling deliver superior performance for data, voice, and video traffic at wire
speed. Superior QoS includes granular wireless bandwidth management and fair sharing, 802.1p Class of Service
(CoS) and Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) field classification, Shaped Round Robin (SRR) scheduling,
Committed Information Rate (CIR), and eight egress queues per port.
◦ Per-port power consumption command allows customers to specify a maximum power setting on an individual port.
◦ Per-port PoE power sensing measures actual power being drawn, enabling more intelligent control of powered
devices. The PoE MIB provides proactive visibility into power usage and allows you to set different power-level
thresholds.
● RFID tags: Catalyst 9300 Series switches have an embedded RFID tag that facilitates easy asset and inventory
management using commercial RFID readers.
● Blue beacon: Catalyst 9300 Series switches support a blue beacon LED for easy identification of the switch being
accessed.
* Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) will be fully supported on Multigigabit switches in a future SW release
High-Performance IP routing
The Cisco Express Forwarding hardware routing architecture delivers extremely high-performance IP routing in Cisco
Catalyst 9300 Series switches, based on:
● IP unicast routing protocols (including static, Routing Information Protocol Version 1 [RIPv1], RIPv2, RIPng, and
Open Shortest Path First [OSPF], Routed Access) are supported for small network routing applications with the
Network Essentials stack. Equal-cost routing facilitates Layer 3 load balancing and redundancy across the stack.
● Advanced IP unicast routing protocols (including Full [OSPF], Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol
[EIGRP], Border Gateway Protocol Version 4 [BGPv4], and Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System Version
4 [IS-ISv4]) are supported for load balancing and for constructing scalable LANs. IPv6 routing (using OSPFv3 and
EIGRPv6) is supported in hardware for maximum performance.
Benefits
● Improves quality of experience by lowering jitter and latency for time-synchronized delivery of high-quality AV.
● Provides scalability of applications across networked deployments, including expansive and complex
AV infrastructure.
● Lowers Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) with reduced cabling (lowers CapEx) and no license fees (lowers OpEx).
For more details about AVB and specific models supported, check https://www.cisco.com/go/avb.
Multigigabit Ethernet technology: Cisco Multigigabit Ethernet technology allows you to achieve bandwidth speeds from
1 Gbps to 10 Gbps over traditional Category 5e/6 cabling or above. This technology addresses the need for exponential
increases in bandwidth with the enormous growth of 802.11ac Wave 2, to be eclipsed by the growth of Wi-Fi 6 and new
wireless applications without having to replace current cabling infrastructure.
Catalyst 9300 Series modular uplink models (C9300 SKUs) supports Cisco UPoE or PoE+ and PoE, thereby addressing the

Licensing
Packaging
The Cisco Catalyst 9000 family of switches introduces a new and simplified licensing package in the form of base and add-
on licenses.
● The perpetual licensing package includes the Network Essentials and Network Advantage licensing options that
are tied to the hardware. Between them, the base licensing packages cover switching fundamentals,
management automation, troubleshooting, and advanced switching features. These Network licenses are
perpetual.
● The subscription licensing package includes the Cisco DNA Essentials and Cisco DNA Advantage options. In
addition to on-box capabilities, the features available with this package provide Cisco innovations on the switch,
as well as on Cisco DNA Center. The Cisco DNA subscription licenses are mandatory at the time of configuration.
License consumption is easily determined by the package itself. While perpetual licenses are always permanent and
without an expiration date, subscription licenses have to be purchased for a 3-, 5-, or 7-year term (and hence are also
known as term-based licenses). Table 12 shows the combinations of perpetual and subscription licenses that must be
purchased.
*
At the time of Cisco DNA license renewal, the Cisco DNA Essentials license can be purchased to be used with Network Advantage
You must order a Cisco DNA subscription term license in order to purchase a switch. When the license term expires, you
can either renew the add-on license to continue using it or deactivate the add-on license and then reload the switch to
continue operating with the base license capabilities.
Both the base and add-on licenses are also available for a 90-day evaluation period. An evaluation license is activated
temporarily, without purchase. An expired evaluation license cannot be reactivated after reload.
Note: It is not required to deploy Cisco DNA Center just to use one of the above packages.

Warranty
Cisco enhanced limited lifetime hardware warranty
The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series Switches come with a Cisco Enhanced Limited Lifetime hardware Warranty (E-LLW) that
includes Next-Business-Day (NBD) delivery of replacement hardware where available and 90 days of 8x5 Cisco Technical
Assistance Center (TAC) support.
Your formal warranty statement, including the warranty applicable to Cisco software, appears in the information packet
that accompanies your Cisco product. We encourage you to review the warranty statement shipped with your specific
product carefully before use.
Cisco reserves the right to refund the purchase price as its exclusive warranty remedy.
For further information about warranty terms, visit https://www.cisco.com/go/warranty. Table 23 provides information
about the E-LLW.
Cisco E-LLW
End-of-life policy In the event of discontinuance of product manufacture, Cisco warranty support is limited to 5 years from the
announcement of discontinuance.
Hardware replacement Cisco or its service center will use commercially reasonable efforts to ship a replacement for NBD delivery,
where available. Otherwise, a replacement will be shipped within 10 working days after receipt of the
Return Materials Authorization (RMA) request. Actual delivery times might vary depending on customer
location.
Effective date Hardware warranty commences from the date of shipment to customer (and in case of resale by a Cisco
reseller, not more than 90 days after original shipment by Cisco).
TAC support Cisco will provide during business hours, 8 hours per day, 5 days per week, basic configuration, diagnosis,
and troubleshooting of device-level problems for up to a 90-day period from the date of shipment of the
originally purchased Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series product. This support does not include solution or network-
level support beyond the specific device under consideration.
