Meraki

Update: Thank you all for the valuable input. The issue was fixed by adding the 'access port' to both 9k's. I was doing the initial config on only 9k1 and that's why the VLAN was going into a suspended state. I sometimes forget we dual homing our 9k's. Once that was complete and the necessary rules were added to our upstream NGFW's. We were able to see the outbound traffic and the return traffic, but the MX250 would never connect to the cloud. Since we are hoping to have this solution live pasts its POC. We created a new VLAN and subnet for it, and once we got our NAT squared away everything from the MX250 perspective is up and running.

It's actually not 10Gb now. We didnt have an open SFP port on the FEX so I have a 1Gb GBIC in the Meraki MX, connected via ethernet to the FEX.

Yes the port on FEX108 is an access port. I have a UCS living on that same FEX utilizing the same data vlan, and it has no issues when plugged into the port.

I recently just had this project handed to because I have deployed Meraki networks at past organizations. Above is the current architecture and I have been fighting some issues all day today. Anytime the port is turned on that's connected to the Meraki, it goes into a Local VLAN Suspended State on the 9k's. And when I check on 9k1 the vpc peer info doesnt populate. I just got off the phone with Meraki they don't have any info or documentation for a supported architecture that we are trying to run. I have also read in other posts/ across the web people have had similar issues with Meraki and vPCs.

I am running into a similar issue. In the end we want to have a HA pair, but this is currently a POC, so we just need one up and running. Anytime the port is turned on that's connected to the Meraki, it goes into a Local VLAN Suspended State. And when I check on the 9k1 the vpc peer info doesnt populate.
