Lab Abstract

This hands-on lab focuses on troubleshooting Cisco Meraki AutoVPN and IPsec scenarios by analyzing the traffic flow patterns in live packet captures and log analysis directly within the Meraki Dashboard. Designed for network engineers and IT professionals, this session provides practical experience in troubleshooting and maintaining Hub & Spoke designs and SD-WAN connectivity.

Attendees will navigate real-world troubleshooting scenarios, starting with VPN Registry communication issues and common unfriendly NAT scenarios. We will also touch on BGP routing between AutoVPN and IPsec environments.

By the end of this session, you will walk away with a stronger troubleshooting toolkit, featuring new diagnostic views and practical tricks—from interpreting event logs to gaining a fresh perspective on packet captures—that you can immediately apply to your own environment.
