Would the SSIDs need to be on different VLANs to ensure separation when the traffic hits the MX84? The Existing SSID is using the default VLAN 0.

Are the MR45 mounting brackets the same as the MR33? Are all MR APs supplied with the same type of mounting bracket?

Thanks, can you recommend a webinar or document which provides details on these options?

Thanks cmr. To clarify we only have a single MX84 in the data centre. The branch sites only have MRs. Currently we are using a separate MX64 to tunnel the guest traffic. Can we have both corporate and guest tunnelled to the MX84 but on different VLANs?

We have a one armed VPN Concentrator in a data centre. Is it possible to configure multiple VPN tunnels from the branch sites into the VPN Concentrator in the data centre? Using an MX84. The goal is to have a separate VPN tunnel for the corporate traffic and one for guest traffic. There is no Internet breakout at the branches so all traffic needs to traverse the MPLS to break out at the data centre. Thanks in advance

When traffic shaping is applied on the MR, is this applied to the traffic on the wired side or the wireless side (over the air)? I ask as surely it would be bad practice to rate limit traffic over the air? Every wireless client should transmit and receive data at the highest rate possible to reduce their contention on the air space. Is it therefore best practice to apply traffic shaping on the MX? Thanks

That make sense! Thanks very much for your help

The guest traffic is just required to access the Internet (nothing in the DC). There is currently traffic shaping on the MRs to rate limit certain websites for the guest traffic There is currently a second MX set up as a VPN concentrator. This is just used for the guest access. I suspect this was implemented to create a DMZ for the guest traffic.

There is only 1 data centre and 11 branch sites. Some site have only 1 or 2 APs. Would I need an MX at each site as indicated in the design? One design goal is to isolate the guest traffic. I know this can be done at the AP but what is the best practice? - An MX at each of the larger sites then combine the smaller sites with a shared MX?

Looks good, Thanks Can this design be simply scaled up for multiple branches?

I have a Meraki network with one Data Centre and 5 branch sites with approximately 30 APs across the sites. Is there a Best practice design for this set up. The Data centre has an MX84 serving as a One- Arm VPN Concentrator. LAN and data centre access is required from the branch sites Guest access is required to be isolated from the data centre and LAN traffic. Thanks in advance

Am I right in thinking that they should have one MX set up as the one-arm concentrator for access to their data center then another MX at each branch site to control access? Is this the current best practice? Thanks

The APs are all Meraki, a mixture of MR33 and MR42. The goal is to keep the guest traffic separate from the rest of the corporate traffic. The guest traffic is all tunnelled to one MX device. setup as a wireless concentrator. Would the MXs need to be in Routed Mode in order to define traffic separation rules?

I have a customer who is using a separate MX for their guest network. Is this best practice? They have two MX (MX84 and MX64) in two separate locations running in passthrough mode. All wireless traffic passes through the MX84 except for the guest traffic which is tunnelled to a MX64 acting as a concentrator. Is there a better way of achieving this?

I would like to prioritize all traffic on a certain VLAN. Ideally all traffic from this VLAN should be identified as Voice so has priority for winning over the air contention. Is there a guide to set this up? Also a guide to allow only certain device types to connect to an SSID/VLAN. Thanks in advance Ash
