Enabling Netflow for Meraki devices

The Meraki dashboard logs are very limited and doe snot allow us to get a very granular view of our traffic flows. Because of this we're thinking about enabling netflow in the Meraki dashboard. We would like to enable this for the security MX, switches and Wireless AP's. We use site 24x7 for monitoring. Could there be any adverse affects when we enable netflow in the MEraki dashboard? IS there anything we need to be aware of?

 

Thanks.

I am not a Cisco Meraki employee. My suggestions are based on documentation of Meraki best practices and day-to-day experience.

Only mx (and ms390) support netflow.  You will get a minor increase of data load on your network (0.5%)
