Scouring some of the posts here, looks like there might be a beta that has multicast. I'll see if I can get that going.

I have a couple MX65s I requested for POC. I've come to the conclusion that Meraki SD-WAN and likely all SD-WAN will not be suitable for my company's use case. I want to double check with the experts though. My use case= Multicast video via RTP. So, you can run multicast over a private line (MPLS, VPLS in my case) no problem, but of course you can't multicast over the public internet. You can't build a GRE on the MX itself, and if you put it in passthrough mode, that takes away the other WAN port. I'm guessing you may be able to passthrough to a router and the router can build a GRE through the MX VPN? Even so, this would leave an MX for each WAN with no actual WAN auto failover between the two WANs. To clarify, my interest in SD-WAN is mitigating errors in video in an efficient way. Currently we use event manager for failover to backup router and manual failover back to primary. Also, two VPLS is not an option as we are trying to save money as well. Am I missing something? Can you Multicast through a private link with DIA as backup with auto failover at a branch site by any means?

I understand the VPN portion needing internet, just not clear on how I can do that with a mock WAN1 MPLS in a lab environment where WAN2 at hub and spoke have actual internet access. And I've tried with the Cradlepoints with many different configs via ECM to no avail. Do you have your CP IPs set to static by the provider? Also, if you do the manual NAT, seems you are limited to only one per device, what if you have two WAN VPN devices that need manual NAT? Also, I found a work around for getting internet access on WANs 1 and 2 on both MX-65s with just two 4G Novatels. Each Novatel has three LAN ports. So I connected both Novatels to each MX65 in a crisscross pattern so that each WAN on a MX65 has a unique public IP.

Hi, I am in the process of evaluating SD-WAN using 2 MX-65s in a lab environment. I was able to get a VPN going over Verizon Novatels on WAN 2, but Cradlepoints won't work at all due to unfriendly NAT. I tried opening up firewalls on Cradelpoints to no avail, so can only assume the NATing the providers do is the issue. Any experience on this? Now I am stuck trying to come up with a lab WAN 1 solution. I'm trying to mimic a provider private network with my own router and static routes with no success. Does the Meraki have to have MPLS to work in this case or should statics work? I'm seeing in another post that the private network has to have internet access via the Hub's internet in order to establish a VPN over the private network? Is it possible to do WAN1 on branch to WAN2 on Hub to mimic this? Any help in mimicing a provider private network in a lab set up is appreciated. Also, is it possible to have Hub with one 4G and branch with two 4G and have branch failover between it's two 4G's? Thanks.
