Hello,

I'm more from the Cisco side of config / licensing and have a few questions I hope the community can help with.

Placed an order for Meraki hardware and licensing. This is the first Meraki HW so there is no existing dashboard.

Do I setup the dashboard first just by creating an account or would you normally get an email for "licenses" and to then follow the registration instructions? Is the Dashboard linked in anyway to the Cisco licensing portal/account? 

I also ordered some cisco catalyst devices with advantage licenses which we now have in our CCO licensing portal. The plan was to bring these into these catalyst devices into the Meraki Dashboard for cloud management.

Do I license these catalyst devices in the normal cisco smart way and then bring them into the Dashboard (once created) for configuration?

Really just trying to understand how the cisco licensing portal and Meraki dashboard hang together if at all.

Thanks!

Hi group,

When creating a security policy for traffic going through a vwire can this policy allow / deny traffic based on L3 addressing? I know the FW doesn't route or switch for vwires but does the FW still have the ability to look at the L3 headers on traffic to then make a decision based on the security policy?

Thanks
