Can we encrypt MPLS Traffic on Meraki ?

Hello, 

 

There is a requirement to encrypt traffic on a private MPLS link between HQ and Branch sites using Meraki. We would like to apply IPSec over this private MPLS link. 

 

Can someone advise if this is possible?

Traffic moving through a Site-to-Site VPN is encrypted regardless of the transport underlay (local LAN, Internet, MPLS etc).

Therefore, if you have two Meraki MX devices that can connect to each other via MPLS circuits, you can build a Site-to-Site VPN between the two for encryption.
