In this lab you will deploy and manage a Cisco Meraki environment using Infrastructure as Code principles. Starting from an empty organization, you'll use YAML-based configurations, Terraform, and GitLab CI/CD pipelines to progressively build out networks, VLANs, traffic shaping, firewall rules, and wireless SSIDs — all without touching the Meraki Dashboard manually.

By the end of this lab you will have hands-on experience with the Network as Code framework, automated configuration validation, integration testing, and notification workflows that represent real-world NetDevOps practices.
