Activating and configuring Cisco Partner Support Service for your Catalyst 9130ax Series is designed to be straightforward through your Cisco partner portal or your designated Cisco account manager. Follow these steps to enroll, activate coverage, and align the service with your network goals:

• Step 1: Gather essential details about your environment.

• Step 6: Validate integration with existing ITSM tools and ticketing workflows. If you use a service desk platform, coordinate with Cisco to ensure seamless ticket creation, status updates, and closure notifications that align with your internal processes.
• Step 7: Start using the service. Begin with a phased approach—prioritize critical wireless segments first, then expand to non-critical areas—while monitoring performance improvements and documenting any optimization opportunities for future reviews.
