Moving from ASA5505 to Meraki Mx64

Hi all,

We are looking at moving from a Cisco asa 5505 to a Meraki MX64 and I am looking for thoughts and advice on how to go about it. We have a lot of rules setup on the ASA and wondered if there is a process for migration or it is all setup manually.

Many thanks,
Simon

I have not seen one so far. This is more or less a manual conversion, specifically since the major portion of Meraki on cloud. I did one migration deployment and had to do it manually. As an opinion, Meraki are easy to configure but difficult to troubleshoot.

Meraki has some good documentation so that would help. Let me know if you have any specific questions.

Hello,

you can get started here.

The GUI for Merkai is simple and easy to configure. If you are familiar with any firewall concept, the config on Meraki is going to be mostly easy. Also, you can contact their support if you have any queries.
