Being asked to create a preventative maintenance plan for the MV cameras at my sites. We are using the alert features to email on faulted and offline cameras but that didn't satisfy the audit. Anyone have a process/procedure they use for preventative maintenance.  ... View more

Thank you both. The router idea has crossed my mind but Im trying to avoid putting anything between my MX and my carrier. If I have too I will but trying to find other alts first. What about the following configuration.    Primary WAN 1 --> Carrier #1  Primary WAN 2 --> Carrier #2   Warm Spare WAN 1--> Carrier #1  Warm Spare WAN 2--> MG with Cellular   In regards to this design Im concerned about the conditions to force the Warm Spare to take over. Ideally the Carrier 1 and 2 would go down which would mean the spare is only available to communicate with dashboard and would force failover. Any thoughts?   ... View more

MX with 2 DIA Circuits + 4G

I don't think my company is unique in this design but I have a challenge around the USB 4G modems. Current WAN configuration is 2 x land based fiber DIA internet circuits (various carriers) and 1 x 4G Skyus DS modem(I have a warm spare environment as well). I think it is safe to say the usb modems are remarkably unreliable and Meraki is putting zero effort in to them now that they have the MG series. The problem in my company situation is I already have a contract with 2 DIA circuits(WAN1 and WAN2) and I see no good way to leverage the MG series as my cellular backup due to this fact.    Has anyone else figure out a good solution for something like this with a requirement to have 2 x DIA AND a 4G/5G Backup.  ...

Re: Non Meraki site to Site VPN with Oracle Cloud

I suspected as such. On the new network, the appliance will not participate in autovpn but that will not prevent it from being able to use non-Meraki Site to Site VPN correct? ... View more

Non Meraki site to Site VPN with Oracle Cloud

Has anyone attempted to create a site to site VPN with the Oracle cloud. We need to set this up however some of the documentation I'm finding is not pointing me in the right direction.    Setup : 9 sites. All using MX appliances in routed mode(they are edge device as well) with 2 ISPs in load balance. Site to site Mesh all sites using AutoVPN.    Requirement : Create an IPSec Tunnel to Oracle VCN. All sites need access to the resources on the other side of the tunnel.   Issues / Questions :  1. Site to sites scope : If all networks are set for the scope will each unique MX try to establish a IPSec tunnel to the endpoint from each public IP resulting in 18 unique IP Sec tunnels 2. Routing : From the documentation I read if you don't have subnets "advertised to VPN" the tunnel will not come online and that the subnets on each side have to match. The oracle side would be using the summary route for the network however ourside would not be advertising the full summary route because I can't add that to any one site.   Is this best accomplished with a concentrator (IE another Meraki MX behind my current pair)?   ...
