How to Use the Meraki License Calculator

To use the Meraki License Calculator, input the necessary details such as the license ID, duration in days, and select the appropriate edition. You can also choose to invalidate a license or change the mode of application. The calculator will provide the projected co-termination date and total cost.

Formula

The calculator uses the formula: Projected Co-Termination Date = Start Date + Duration. The total cost is calculated based on the selected edition's daily cost multiplied by the duration.

Example Calculation

For example, if you have a license starting on January 1, 2023, with a duration of 365 days and an 'Enterprise' edition, the projected co-termination date will be December 31, 2023. The total cost will be calculated based on the daily rate of the selected edition.

Tips for Accurate Calculations

  • Ensure all dates are correctly formatted and valid.
  • Use the invalidate option to simulate scenarios where a license is not considered.
  • Check the edition and mode settings for accurate cost calculations.

Considerations

When using this calculator, consider the impact of invalid licenses on your overall co-termination strategy. Adjusting the order of application can also affect the results. For more complex scenarios, consider consulting with a licensing expert.
