Everything is automatically pulled from the selected Security Appliance and then pushed out through a profile update to managed clients. No need to worry about user configuration, or shared secrets, or server credentials. That’s all there is to it! Oh, and we can perform the same trick for Mac OS X too and Samsung Knox enabled Android devices. Finally, determine whether this should be a full tunnel VPN (Send All Traffic, a good choice when on unfamiliar networks), and any proxy settings before clicking save. The usual Systems Manager tags are available here, both static and dynamic, enabling tight control over which devices will be enabled for VPN. In the Sentry VPN section the admin chooses the Systems Manager network (if there is more than one) and the scope of devices which will receive the VPN settings. This will open up a new panel as shown here: Enable the Client VPN server and then enter the desired settings and then select ‘Systems Manager Sentry VPN Security’. To get things set up, log on to the dashboard and head over to the Client VPN settings page on the MX to which VPN clients will connect. Pairing an MX with Systems Manager adds a number of powerful security features we call Sentry. Among the Security Appliance’s many features are comprehensive site-to-site and client VPN. Meraki to the rescue! Customers who deploy one of our powerful MX Security Appliances together with Systems Manager have everything they need to build a turnkey VPN solution in their hands. Here’s what the iPhone owner is confronted with when attempting to add a new VPN configuration: Even people who consider themselves ‘technical’ can struggle here, because VPN configuration requires the user to configure several settings. So the issue isn’t connecting to VPN, but configuring it in the first place. An iPhone with VPN configured will simply present a toggle for the user to slide. Thankfully today many of the services we access are reached over an SSL connection, but a Virtual Private Network (VPN) remains the best way to protect all traffic. What hasn’t been compromised at some point? Connectivity is so important to us that sometimes we forget we may not be the only ones joined to that café hotspot. Passwords, private photos, corporate data, government secrets.
