Hi @route_map! Let me try to answer at least a few of your questions. Guess the guys who are more into Systems Manager will chime in later.   1. Yes, that‘s what Sentry is being used for https://documentation.meraki.com/SM/Deployment_Guides/Systems_Manager_Sentry_Overview 2. Yes, e.g. by using Policies https://documentation.meraki.com/SM/Profiles_and_Settings/Configuration_Profiles 3. Yes (depending on the type of device / enrollment) https://documentation.meraki.com/SM/Monitoring_and_Reporting/Selective_Wipe_and_Device_Quarantine_in_Systems_Manager 4. I don‘t quite understand 5. See Sentry 6. See 3. 7. You can push certificates https://documentation.meraki.com/SM/Profiles_and_Settings/Certificates_Payload_(Pushing_Certificates) 8. RBAC from a management perspective? 9. Yes, see 2. and https://documentation.meraki.com/SM/Apps_and_Software 10. I don‘t have an answer for that question 11. Yes https://documentation.meraki.com/SM/Tags_and_Policies/Geofencing_with_Managed_Devices 12. I don‘t have an answer for that question 13. Yes, via Geofencing and Policy (see 11. as a start)   Hope that helps. You‘ll find additional (high level) information in the data sheet: https://meraki.cisco.com/lib/pdf/meraki_datasheet_sm.pdf ...

Regarding your questions:   > Support traffice filtering by IP host add/range and deep packet inspection at wire speed? DPI is not possible at Wire Speed. But that's the case for every other firewall out there. Please find throughput figures here: https://meraki.cisco.com/products/appliances/#models   > Manageable via SNMPv3, supports snmp trap messages Management is done completely cloud-based (via Dashboard), you could also leverage the API for that. SNMPv3 could be used for monitoring puposes though: https://documentation.meraki.com/zGeneral_Administration/Monitoring_and_Reporting/SNMP_Overview_and_Configuration   > Support 802.1q Yes, but you'll have to activate VLANs first: https://documentation.meraki.com/MX/Networks_and_Routing/Configuring_VLANs_on_the_MX_Security_Appliance   > The firewall shall support syslog protocol for reporting events? Yes, not only Syslog: https://documentation.meraki.com/zGeneral_Administration/Monitoring_and_Reporting/Meraki_Device_Reporting_-_Syslog%2C_SNMP_and_API https://documentation.meraki.com/zGeneral_Administration/Monitoring_and_Reporting/Syslog_Server_Overview_and_Configuration   > Continue to log events while under attack (DOS, DDOS, etc) As long as the box is up and running it will produce logs. Perhaps Meraki could elaborate further on that.   > THe FW should support DNS functionality for local host that resolves uo to a public DNS What exactly do you mean? MX itself won't be able to do that but could leverage Cisco Umbrella to add DNS layer enforcement. ... View more
