   A manufacturing company uses Meraki Insight to monitor its supply chain management (SCM) application, which is a custom application. The SCM is hosted on a server with a dynamic IP address that changes periodically. The admin has configured a custom application using the server's IP address, but the monitoring stops working after the IP changes. What should the admin do to ensure continuous monitoring?

   • AUse the predefined 'Web Browsing' application to monitor the SCM traffic.
   • BUpdate the custom application's IP address manually whenever it changes.
   • CDisable and re-enable application assurance to refresh the IP address.
   • DUse the server's hostname instead of its IP address in the custom application definition.

   A media company uses Meraki Insight to monitor its video conferencing application, which is a predefined application. The company wants to ensure that the application's performance meets internal quality standards. The admin has set thresholds for latency and packet loss, but the alerts are not triggering even when performance degrades. What is the most likely reason?

   • AThe thresholds are set too high, so the degradation does not exceed them.
   • BThe admin needs to enable application assurance separately for each application.
   • CThe application is not being used, so there is no traffic to monitor.
   • DThe thresholds are only applied to custom applications, not predefined ones.
