NBAR - Shaping rules

[RaphaelL]

Hi ,

I have read the document : https://documentation.meraki.com/General_Administration/Cross-Platform_Content/Next-gen_Traffic_Anal...

My networks and templates are set to : Network-wide > Configure > General > Traffic analysis and set "Traffic analysis" to "Detailed: collect destination hostnames." 

However when I try to create a shaping rule , I still get the default choice reported by TA : 

It looks like NBAR is not enabled or leveraged by my shaping rule.

I'm running the latest MX version.

The picture is not for the traffic shaping section 

[RaphaelL]

indeed but same menu / result :

That is strange.  It should be working for traffic shaping rules.  

For vpn traffic-policies its still not available afaik

[RaphaelL]

Oh really !? Bummer..

Also the menu/output is present for my L7 firewall rules which kinda suggest that NBAR is not enabled/running. 

I'm running MX 19.1.7.1 , MS 17.1.4 and MR30.7 which is pretty much the latest version in every category. Might open a ticket on that one.

Maybe somehow related to an old network using the same template?

That's what I thought at first. I created a brand-new template + network for the purpose of testing this. 

So there is only 1 network bound , still can't get it to work. Maybe I have some shaddy backend option preventing me from doing this. At this point I don't know 😥

Hi @RaphaelL 

The documentation states that there are limitations when using configuration templates. Are the same things observed outside of template networks?
