   A university uses Meraki Insight to monitor its learning management system (LMS), which is a predefined application in the Meraki dashboard. The IT team wants to receive alerts when the LMS's performance degrades, but they are not sure which predefined application corresponds to their LMS. What should the team do to identify the correct predefined application?

   • ACreate a custom application for the LMS instead of using a predefined one.
   • BReview the list of predefined applications in the Meraki dashboard and match the LMS's hostname.
   • CUse the 'Web Browsing' category to monitor all web traffic and infer LMS performance.
   • DContact Meraki support to ask which predefined application matches the LMS.

   A hospital uses Meraki Insight to monitor its telemedicine application, which is a predefined application. The application is used for video consultations, and the hospital wants to ensure low latency and jitter. The admin has set thresholds for latency and jitter, but the alerts are not triggering even when the application's performance degrades. The admin suspects that the application traffic is not being classified correctly. What should the admin do to verify?

   • ACreate a custom application for the telemedicine application to ensure classification.
   • BCheck the Meraki Insight dashboard to see if the telemedicine application is listed in the application usage report.
   • CDisable and re-enable application assurance to reset classification.
   • DIncrease the thresholds to see if alerts trigger at higher values.

   What is the default behavior of predefined standard applications in Cisco Meraki MI application assurance?

   • AThey are only monitored if the application is used by more than 10 users on the network.
   • BThey are blocked from the network unless explicitly allowed by the administrator.
   • CThey are assigned a default QoS policy that prioritizes them over all other traffic.
   • DThey are automatically monitored and classified, but no QoS or performance policy is applied unless the administrator configures one.

   A school district uses Meraki Insight to monitor its student information system (SIS), a web-based application. The SIS is performing poorly during peak enrollment periods. The IT admin wants to be alerted when the SIS's latency exceeds 500 ms for more than 5 minutes. What should the admin configure in Meraki Insight?

   • ACreate a traffic shaping rule to prioritize SIS traffic and reduce latency.
   • BSet the application threshold for the SIS to 500 ms and configure an alert for threshold breach.
   • CUse the Meraki dashboard's packet capture to analyze SIS latency.
   • DEnable the SIS as a predefined application and rely on default thresholds.

   A government agency uses Meraki Insight to monitor its internal collaboration tool, which is a custom application. The tool is critical for daily operations, and the agency wants to ensure high availability. The admin has set thresholds for latency and packet loss, but the tool's performance varies significantly during peak hours. The admin wants to avoid false alerts during brief spikes while still catching sustained degradation. What should the admin configure?

   • AUse the Meraki Insight alerting feature with a duration condition to avoid brief spikes.
   • BSet the thresholds to the average performance values and enable alerting.
   • CDisable alerts during peak hours to avoid false alerts.
   • DSet the thresholds to the peak-hour performance values.
