On the whole, yes.  You'll still be able to do things like app deployments and policies.

 

An example of something you won't be able to do is say automatically deploy wifi network "x" without having to say anything else because it already knows the wifi settings.  Instead, you have to say deploy wifi "x" using WPA2-Enterprise mode, etc.

Basically things it would normally be able to learn from the network you will have to manually specify.

 

You also won't be able to use some of the automatic security features, like Sentry.

Well, what kind of integration are your seeking with non-Meraki devices?

I wanted to have the understanding regarding the integration of Cisco Aironet APs and Cisco Catalyst Switches with Cisco Meraki Solution wherein for example I'm having user clients with laptops and mobile phones connected to Cisco Aironet APs and also desktops connected through Cisco L2 switches and I want to manage these endpoints like Laptops, Mobile phones and desktops on systems manager in Cisco Meraki Dashboard hence is it possible to manage it over Meraki Dashboard ?
