I'm using Meraki Cloud authentication for VPN, and it's working well.  My question is, what's the difference between RADIUS and Active Directory (AD) authentication for VPN?  I know for AD, the user logs in with their username and password.  What about RADIUS?  Where is the username and password info coming from?  Is that still coming from AD or do I need to create it locally on the Meraki?   Also, I know with AnyConnect you could use RSA for 2 factor authentication.  Is there anything for Client VPN?  Right now, we have one VPN account for Meraki cloud authentication, and everyone is using that one account for VPN.  I think it might be better for each users to have their own account.   ...

They can only access the files if they login with their AD account.    How can I fix this? ... View more

We've been getting lots of DoS attacks on our Comcast router, so I changed the firewall on the Comcast router from minimum to maximum hoping this will prevent more DoS attacks.   I noticed that when I have the Comcast firewall to maximum, Meraki thinks it lost connection to the Meraki Cloud, but obviously not because I can surf the internet.  When I switch the Comcast router firewall to minimum, Meraki regains connection back to the cloud (even though it never lost connection).   Any recommendations?  Is it a good idea to have the Comcast / ISP router firewall to maximum?  Is there a way to make MX84 aware it is connected to the cloud? ...

Does Meraki have any long range APs?  I need something that can provide coverage up to 3 miles.  Something like this.   https://www.amazon.com/EnGenius-directional-long-range-N-ENH500-KIT/dp/B007ZDC64I/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1549040351&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=engenius+5ghz+wireless+outdoor+ap%2Fclient+bridge%2Fcpe&psc=1   I didn't really see anything on Meraki website.   https://meraki.cisco.com/products/wireless#models ...

Can I have the same public IP assigned to the two WAN (internet) ports on MX68?  I know the best way is to add a second internet connection for back up, but just wondering.   Sorry for the misleading topic subject, I'm not sure how to edit it. ... View more

I have two laptops connected to a switch, which is connected to my MX. The MX is giving out the correct dhcp to both laptops.   My problem is that one laptop can ping devices on the network, while the other laptop cannot ping the device.   What could be the reason? ... View more

I often get an email saying from Meraki saying that the "The security appliance in the network has become unreachable from the Meraki cloud", but when I look at the event log of the MX, I don't see anything.   What could be causing this? ... View more
