Meraki MX appliances and MPLS

[CarlT]

Hi All

I am looking at a router refresh for our MPLS connections, at the moment we use a "wires only" MPSL service, meaning we run BGP to the provider, we overlay this with ipsec tunnels between all our Cisco ISRs.

I see Meraki MX appliances support BGP, so in theory we could peer to our ISP using EBGP, then potentially run meraki vpn tunnels over it.

The design would be 1 MPLS connection and 1 internet connection, MX firewall 1 would have the MPLS connection and a secondary MX would have the internet connection.

Is this feasible? does anyone else do this? does it work well?

Cheers

Carl

If you were to use the search bar at the top of the Meraki Community page and search MPLS you will find quite a few posts regarding MPLS in the equation (if interested).

My preferred solution is to run AutoVPN over MPLS.

With this configuration, you don't require BGP.  The provider needs to provide the stub routing between all of their stubs, and that is it.

The only catch - something has to provide a single Internet access to the MPLS network for all the MXs to use the VPN registry system.  This can be done via the head office (or the service provider).

@RWelch has already provided the documentation link for this.
