vMX in azure as SSID concentrator for guest Internet

Hello,

 

i was wondering if we can use the vMX as SSID concentrator for Guest Internet traffic from remote Meraki AP.

 

we have the same setup on MX400 and we would like to move it to thew cloud. Meraki support confirmed it can work, but as per vMX documentation, this does not look as a supported design, as vMX can work as one armed concentrator with split tunnel.

Kind of a big deal

I’m not sure on whether it would work or not, but thinking beyond that point, what would you do to provide IP addresses to the clients on that Guest SSID since Azure doesn’t officially support DHCP? There may be a way to make it work, but I doubt it will be pretty/supported.

Good Question actually, i totally didnot think about.

 

current setup we are using the MX as the DHCP server to the guest client, I assumed that it is possible in the vMX !
