That sounds just like me! The majority of the tools I used are cloud centric as well. It makes the OS less important, and at the same time, harder to choose.

After some further consideration, I have decided to rule Apple out of the options. My primary concern with Apple is the eco-system they have created of vendor lock in, to make it hard to move to another platform. For example, you used to be able to get Apple Configurator for Windows and Mac, so you could put an initial policy onto an Apple device. Now there is only a Mac version, creating vendor lock in. Consider iMessage - if you get all your mates on this then you are locked into using Apple devices. You can't use it on any other platform. Consider hardware like Apple Watch - once again only works with other Apple devices. Consider music purchased through iTunes - its a real bitch trying to move that to a non-Apple platform. Consider music purchased through Google Music - works on everything. Apple want you to use all these technologies so that once they get you on their platforms it is hard for you to leave. Once of the reasons I can use a platform like Ubuntu at the moment is that none of the technology I used is locked in. I can use it on a Microsoft platform, on an Apple platform, on Android - and even Linux. To support Apple would be choosing to support a company that wants to exclude others.

You have to use the same speed module on both ends of the link. Either both 1 Gb/s or 10 Gb/s. You can't mix them.

I think you are mostly referring to content filtering, rather than AMP. And no it wont matter what DNS servers they are using.

@Adam is right, the MX will limit the performance to a level where it will operate correctly. So you can happily plug in a much faster circuit. You wont be able to use its full capacity, but the MX will operate without issue on it.

Try turning IGMP snooping off and then back on again - to give it a reset on the switch.

By having the same users in two places you create an issue - which is the authoritative user?

That should be fine. Anything interesting in either of these two places right after the video content fails: Network-Wide/Events Security Appliance/Security Centre/Events

I checked abs the Meraki site is definitely using TLSv1. 2 and and supports strong elliptical curve encryption algorithms. Are you sure the date is correct on your machine?

Actually it looks like they try to connect to these three URLs: captive.apple.com www.airport.us www.thinkdifferent.us

I think Apple devices try and connect to captive.apple.com to determine Internet access.

If you keep it up all the time it is only about $5 per month. Two machines would be $10 per month. You are going to find it hard to find another solution this cost effective. The next solution I would recommend is Amazon Workspaces - their managed desktop service. https://aws.amazon.com/workspaces/

Personally, I would use Amazon AWS. You can spin up a t2.micro in each country you want to test from. It's something like 1.3 cents per hour. https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2014/07/01/introducing-t2-the-new-low-cost-general-purpose-instance-type-for-amazon-ec2/ So when you want to test, just start the machine up. RDP to it, and then start web browsing.

I'm thinking of replacing my notebook in a couple of months. I'm trying to decide which OS to go for. Ubuntu, Windows 10, Mac OS, or something else. I currently use Ubuntu. I used to use Windows 10 when it first came out for maybe 6 months. But it was so horribly slow it I couldn't stand it and wiped my machine and moved to Ubuntu. Ubuntu has been great. These days Windows 10 has been improved greatly, and I don't find it slow when I use it on other peoples machines. So that is no longer a barrier to me. I mostly use Web apps such as Office 365, LucidChart, Meraki Dashboard, Cisco Spark, the community, etc. I use languages like Python and NodeJS. I use a little bit of perl, but not so much on my workstation these days. I like being able to use tools like grep to quickly search through lots of text data. I use VMWare Workstation daily so I can have multiple machines setup with different configurations for testing things. So which OS would you go for?

I agree with @spankym. I would compared the TCP/IP settings on a machine on your LAN that you can ping to one that you can not. There will probably be a difference. My second guess is Windows Firewall is blocking it.

If you are just doing a trial, I would run with the static route like @MarkW. Here are some Meraki Design Guides. The first is using AutoVPN for failover only. The MPLS is just routed over. https://documentation.meraki.com/MX-Z/Deployment_Guides/MPLS_Failover_to_Meraki_Auto_VPN The second (and my preferred solution), AutoVPN is run over both MPLS and the Internet, and you can use both paths at the same time if desired (thanks to SDN). https://documentation.meraki.com/MX-Z/Site-to-site_VPN/Configuring_Site-to-site_VPN_over_MPLS
