Why is it important to plan subnets and VLANs carefully in a Meraki Auto VPN deployment?

To ensure that all sites use the same IP addressing scheme

To increase the number of SSIDs available on the wireless network

To avoid IP address conflicts between sites and ensure proper routing

To reduce the number of MX appliances needed at each site

What is the primary purpose of Meraki Auto VPN?

To provide a secure remote access VPN for individual users connecting from anywhere

To replace the need for any firewall or security appliance at branch locations

To automatically establish site-to-site VPN tunnels between Meraki devices without manual tunnel configuration

To encrypt all traffic between a single MX and a third-party firewall

A university is deploying Auto VPN across 120 campus buildings. The network team plans to use a hub-and-spoke design. The architect is concerned about the maximum number of spokes a single MX hub can support. Which design change best addresses this scalability limit?

Deploy multiple hubs and distribute the 120 buildings across them

Reduce the number of buildings by consolidating sites

Use a single high-end MX model as the only hub for all 120 spokes

Configure all 120 buildings as VPN hubs in a full mesh

What is the purpose of configuring redundant VPN hubs in a Meraki Auto VPN design?

To eliminate the need for internet connections at spoke sites

To provide high availability in case one hub fails

To reduce the number of VPN tunnels needed

To increase the number of SSIDs available

In a Meraki Auto VPN full mesh topology, how are VPN tunnels established between sites?

All sites connect to a single central hub for all traffic

Every site establishes a direct VPN tunnel to every other site

Sites are grouped into clusters, and each cluster has a designated hub

Tunnels are established on-demand only when traffic is sent
