Key Features
Use C9300L-DNA-A-24-3Y when the bill of materials needs DNA Advantage for a 24-port Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink switch, not a C9300 modular-uplink switch.
The 3-year term gives procurement a defined subscription period without locking the buyer into the longer 5-year or 7-year C9300L DNA Advantage options.
This SKU is scoped to 24-port C9300L models, so the port count and hardware family should be checked before quoting or renewing the license.
Cisco ordering guidance requires Smart Account handling for Catalyst 9300 Series software entitlements, so procurement should confirm the customer Smart Account or partner handling path before placing the order.
Choose this license when the 24-port C9300L deployment is specified for DNA Advantage because the network team requires the higher subscription tier.
Using the exact SKU separates the license tier, term, port count, and C9300L fixed-uplink model group, reducing the risk of quoting a C9300 or C9300LM license by mistake.
Application Scenarios
Use C9300L-DNA-A-24-3Y when a new 24-port Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink switch order requires a Cisco DNA Advantage subscription for a 3-year term.
Choose this SKU when the buyer already has 24-port C9300L switches and needs to align renewal paperwork with the same Advantage tier and term length.
Use C9300L-DNA-A-24-3Y when a quote review shows the hardware is Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink but the software line was entered as a Catalyst 9300 modular-uplink license.

- Choose C9300L-DNA-A-24-3Y when the confirmed requirement is DNA Advantage for 24-port Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink hardware with a 3-year term.
- Choose C9300L-DNA-E-24-3Y when the same 24-port C9300L hardware only needs DNA Essentials.
- Choose C9300L-DNA-A-24-5Y when the same Advantage tier must be selected with a longer 5-year subscription.
- Choose C9300-DNA-A-24-3Y only when the hardware is a Catalyst 9300 modular-uplink model rather than C9300L.
Selection Guide
1. Choose this SKU for 24-port C9300L Advantage coverage
Select C9300L-DNA-A-24-3Y only when the hardware order is a 24-port Cisco Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink switch and the software tier is DNA Advantage.
2. Choose Essentials if the required tier is lower
If the project is scoped for DNA Essentials, use the matching C9300L-DNA-E-24 term SKU instead of ordering Advantage by default.
3. Choose the 5-year or 7-year option for longer lifecycle coverage
If procurement wants fewer renewal events across a campus refresh cycle, verify whether the 5-year or 7-year C9300L DNA Advantage term is required.
4. Verify the Smart Account and hardware family
Before purchase, confirm the Smart Account, virtual account ownership, exact hardware SKU, new purchase or renewal status, and whether the quote should use C9300L rather than C9300 or C9300LM license SKUs.
