ACL logs

[idknow]

Hello,

Do you guys know if there's any way to get logs from ACLs configured on meraki switches, because nothing shows up from the dashboard ie "event log". And let's say if i set up a syslog server would it be the same ?

Thanks

No, Switch ACLs are processed in hardware, but logging would involve the CPU to send them. If you need logs, the firewall is the place to go.

oh ok i get it, but the thing is, intervlan routing is operated by the ms switches and where acl rules also sit. We have a non-meraki firewall upstream only to route outside

Well, you can't have both. Either you move your clan-routing to that firewall or you accept not to have logs.
