I have always setup with a Mx or a Z1 device but a layer3 MS switch is capable of running on its own in Meraki network. I could create a network in Meraki based on ONLY a switch. But, can I use it as a flat switch ? I guess not. And as @alemabrahao mentions, where can I setup the uplink info as I can normally do on an mx/z1 device. ... View more

Actually, even after disabling load balancing and Active-Active Auto VPN , still MX-250s continue to show latency spikes on both ISPs at the same time for unknown reasons. No particular event is captured at the mentioned time which might point to this latency spike. ... View more

Checking with AWS it is identified that there are EC2 instances from some account which have theses ips.AWS cannot reveal the account holder or their location as per their policy. I have blocked the  xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/32 public ip in layer 7 rules (ip range section) but still see traffic visible on WAN internet pcap capture on Meraki Dashboard. How else could I block "Internet Protocol Version 4, Src: ec2-xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.us-east-2.compute.amazonaws.com from hitting our MX. We do not have advanced security features option. ... View more
