Extending VLAN from DC to Remote site

Not sure if this is possible with a Meraki, but I'll ask anyway:

 

We provide a free wifi service that I need to push out to a new remote site. The new site will be connected via WAN link. (Circuit specifics are TBD at the moment as we sort out costs and services available.) We are currently doing this to other sites via ASE circuit (using separate VRF for wifi traffic) as well as dedicated dark fiber links via trunk port.  Being fairly new to Meraki world, I'm hoping some resident experts can provide some pointers on how to accomplish this.

Kind of a big deal

If those remote site are being serviced by an MX that is running SD-WAN over that circuit you could full tunnel the traffic to the main site and have any policy locally on that MX.

However if you are using separate routers outside of Meraki SD-WAN then you could still have the SSID tunneled to a central separate MX.  Or you could go the catalyst route and use a central C9800 controller who can already be onboarded into dashboard.

From what I heard this year in Cisco Live Amsterdam they may be moving away from the MX as concentrator solution in favor of a new type of device or using the second solution which is Cisco Native and can now be fully monitored.
