Our customers who are running our MS-series of switches are getting some good news – we’re releasing an update that provides some new features to make their hardware even more useful. Included in the update are port schedules that allow administrators to enable and disable ports based on time of day (for example, shutting off connected PoE VoIP phones in the night to save energy), visibility into DHCP servers on a network for enhanced monitoring and debugging, and a new Live Tool for attempting to wake a client via Wake-on-Lan.

We’ll be blogging about these features in the coming days so stay tuned. Customers with switches will be receiving the update over the next few weeks as we roll the update out; as always, a quick call to Meraki support can get you upgraded immediately.
