Hi jdsilva
Yes there would be an Auto VPN between the HQ and the Branch and therefore the MXs at either end would automatically share routes.
However, what I had wanted to do was only configure the branch subnets on the MS425 and then route traffic to the branch MX over a separate subnet. I would then run OSPF on the MS425 and branch MX so the branch MX would learn about the branch subnets. As I am currently running OSPF between our core MX and main Cisco network I had thought it would be a nice solution to link these two separate instances of OSPF into one OSPF Area, i.e. all the way from the Cisco L3 switch at our HQ, all the way to the branch MS425.
As the MX cannot receive routing information over an Auto VPN this will not work.
You have highlighted another issue in that if I do not configure all the subnets on the branch MX, how do I tell the branch MX to allow these subnets over the Auto VPN? There must be a way as there would be little point in having a core/distribution layer in the Meraki solution. I'm looking into that now!
Kind Regards
