About MS125-48FP-HW

The Meraki MS125-48FP 48-Port Layer 2 Cloud Managed Stackable Gigabit PoE+ Switch is built from the ground up for cloud management without compromising any of the power and flexibility traditionally found in enterprise-class switches. The MS125-48FP is managed through an elegant, intuitive cloud interface, rather than a cryptic command line. To bring up this Meraki switch, simply plug it in. This switch doesn't require CLI for switch configuration or port management. Meraki’s centralised management platform gives administrators granular visibility into their network. Meraki's dashboard helps you keep track of every configuration change in your network with Meraki's detailed event and change logs.

 Industry-leading cloud management

Cloud management has a number of benefits that make it easier to build networks large and small:

• Automatic email alerts from power loss, downtime, excessive Layer 1 errors, or configuration changes
• Powerful remote diagnostic tools such as packet capture to help isolate and troubleshoot network issues
• Role-based administration
• Firmware upgrades and enhancements from the Meraki cloud
• Virtual Stacking enables switch port configuration changes on the dashboard interface without the need to physically stack switches
• Incredible network transparency with application, operating system, client, and hostname visibility
• Zero-touch provisioning for rapid deployment across sites

Branch and campus access

• Quality-of-Service (QoS) to prioritise mission critical traffic such as voice and video
• Voice VLAN support for simplified VoIP deployments
• CDP/LLDP with detailed neighbour discovery and visibility
• Port Mirroring support for monitoring network traffic at line rate
• IGMP Snooping to optimise network performance for multicast applications
• Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) for high-capacity trunking

Network security

• IEEE 802.1X, MAB, and Hybrid authentication support for wired access control with RADIUS server monitoring
• ACL support (IPv4 & IPv6) and MAC whitelisting
• Single-Host/Multi-Domain/Multi-Host/Multi Authentication
• Change of Authorisation (CoA) and RADIUS accounting support
• DHCP snooping to prevent users from adding unauthorised DHCP servers on the network
• Rapid spanning tree, BPDU guard, root guard, loop guard, UDLD & other safeguards to help prevent misconfigurations and reduce convergence time
• Per-port VLAN configuration
• Multiple administrative roles with sophisticated security policy management
