Hardware Details
| Licensing Requirements |
This product includes a cloud license that provides product updates and support for a specified duration. Meraki devices are cloud-managed, so a cloud license is required for each device. You'll need to obtain new licenses before your old licenses expire to continue using this Meraki product. Discounted licenses for this product might be available through Cisco Meraki for Nonprofits at Connecting Up. If you choose not to renew, you will no longer be able to manage this product via the Meraki cloud, and this product will cease to function. Meraki cloud licenses use a "co-termination" licensing model by default, but you can opt in to per-device licensing through the Meraki Dashboard after you set up your account.
For more information, see the Meraki Licensing FAQ and Meraki Licensing Models page. |

Cisco Product Grant Program
The Cisco Product Grant Program is another option for some nonprofits to receive Cisco networking products. This program offers individual nonstandard networking bundles as donations to select nonprofits. For more information, see the Cisco Product Grant program.
Eligible organizations can receive donations from either the Cisco donation program at Connecting Up or the Cisco Product Grant Program, but they can't receive donations from both programs during the same fiscal year.
