Most people may disagree with me but I speak from 15+ years of experience using aftermarket SFPs with Cisco gear. There's no difference! Cisco DOES NOT manufacture SFPs, they OEM it from Finisar and possibly others. I've bough SFPs straight from the Finisar factory and they told me Cisco was one of their clients. All they do it put a different branding sticker and sometimes hardcode a vendor ID in it, that's why you get a warning on some Cisco switches.   Buy it from the right manufacturer and it's the same. 10 years ago I used to buy thousands from the source for $20-30/piece for 1G SFPs when Cisco's list on those was $500 to $1000 !!!! At that point throwing in 10% extra was still 10x cheaper!!! And till today, I've NEVER had a single one fail! I still keep a 10 year old finisar SFP in my laptop bag that been abused, and it still works flawlessly!  ... View more

The switching capacity of the MS220-8P is 20Gbps👈 https://meraki.cisco.com/lib/pdf/meraki_datasheet_ms220_compact.pdf   So it can definitely push way more traffic! You guys are right, the "throughput" to the cloud test is labelled wrong. It's definitely NOT the MAX throughput. 9-10Mbps makes it look like a bottleneck when it definitely isn't. I donno what the heck the engineers did to make the calculated speed always around 10Mbps! The MX throughput is closer to a speedtest.net test. ... View more

I'm having the same issue. Unfortunately the Meraki dashboard doesn't give much info about the attack. A customer of mine is having an issue with syslog events NOT showing any info on SQLi attacks after changing their IPS from Barracuda to Meraki! Meraki needs to provide granular configurations in their MX product otherwise security minded professionals will steer away from this box deeming it too simple! They could easily enable an advanced (geek) mode! ... View more
