Stuggling with AWS VMx and connection back to meraki auto vpn sites

I've just deployed a VMx-L in AWS, dashboard is connected fine. I now need to configure it so the subnets inside AWS can see the subnets inside our network we publish using the autovpn. 

 

Do I just use a single subnet to a vpc in AWS and then do everything else in AWS or do I have to configure every subnet individually in both places? 

 

Is there any more documentation on this anywhere? All I can find is the how to deploy which worked fine.

 

Thanks in advance for any help on this,

Lee.

You don’t need to configure every subnet individually in both places ,but you do need to advertise each AWS subnet you want reachable over AutoVPN in the Meraki dashboard.

Apologies if I'm misunderstanding this, we have a bunch of subnets set up in AWS. If I need all of these connected using AutoVPN, I need to set them all up as networks on the VMX and Enable AutoVPN? Is that correct?

You only need one Meraki network for the VMx.
You manually list each AWS subnet you want to advertise via AutoVPN.
AWS handles internal routing; Meraki handles VPN routing.

 

Take a look at the Additional VPC Configuration  session on the document.
