Alert::dashboard.meraki.com - ::127.0.0.1::Network Nodes packet loss Alert Warning::Network Data::Critical Alert Description Node Name: dashboard.meraki.com - IP_Address: 127.0.0.1 City: Region: Site Code: Device Identification: Network Data Device Type: Packet Loss : 50 % Status: Critical

Don’t know what’s going on with your solarwinds reporting but are your Meraki devices stable and registered to the cloud and your network working?

that issue appears to be more cosmetic so nothing to worry about….

Often when you see 127.0.0.1 it's because the host accessing DNS is using a DNS protection service like Cisco Umbrella.
