Meraki NAC vs. Access Manager

shlomoi — Tue, 02 Dec 2025 19:38:07 GMT

Hi ,

I have a Meraki wireless environment without switches. I want to connect users with a certificate but I don't have a radius server.

Can the Meraki NAC / Meraki Access Manager solution help in this case?

Which solution is easier and faster to implement?

Thanks

Yes, you can use it. There are all documents that you need to understand about access manager.

@shlomoi @Do you plan on onboarding the end user devices to Meraki System Manager MDM? What are you planning to use as a ldap directory source?

Yes !!

this is a new small serverless environment, I want everything to be managed in Meraki.

Thanks

Yes. Note that only Entra ID is supported as an external authentication source at this point in time.
