A financial services company is connecting its main office to a partner organization using a dedicated Layer 3 link. The partner is running OSPF. The security team requires that only the partner's specific application subnet (10.10.0.0/24) be reachable from the main office, and that the main office's internal routing table is not exposed to the partner. The main office uses a Meraki MX. What is the most secure and stable way to configure this peering?

Enable OSPF on the MX's uplink interface, and configure a route map to filter outbound advertisements.

Configure a site-to-site VPN tunnel to the partner and use a static route on the MX for 10.10.0.0/24, with the MX's local networks not advertised to the partner.

Create a static route on the MX for 10.10.0.0/24 pointing to the partner's router, and configure an inbound ACL on the MX to block all other traffic.

Establish a non-Meraki VPN tunnel to the partner and run OSPF over the tunnel, using prefix filtering to only exchange the 10.10.0.0/24 route.

A retail chain is deploying Meraki MX appliances at 200 branch sites, each with a single uplink to a regional hub. The hubs run OSPF with the corporate data center. The network team wants to advertise a default route from the hubs to the branches and have the branches learn specific prefixes only when needed. The MX appliances at the branches will use the Meraki SD-WAN feature to select the best path. Which routing approach should the architect recommend?

Configure the MX appliances at the branches to use the Meraki auto-VPN and let the hubs advertise a default route via the VPN tunnel.

Use BGP on the MX appliances to peer with the hubs and advertise all branch subnets to the data center.

Disable dynamic routing on the branches and configure static routes pointing to the hub, with a floating static route for failover.

Run OSPF on the MX appliances at the branches and hubs, and configure route summarization on the hubs.

What is the primary purpose of integrating routing deployments with Meraki SD-WAN?

To replace all routing protocols with a proprietary protocol

To provide stable, secure, and scalable connectivity across WAN links

To eliminate the need for firewalls

To increase the physical bandwidth of WAN links
