ECMS practice question

Why would you want to split an organisation into multiple networks?

A.) To create additional Auto-VPN domains

B.) To calculate a longer licensing co-termination date

C.) To avoid exceeding Dashboard limitations with the max number of devices per network

D.) To unlock the MSP portal navigation feature

Is it one or two answers?

[DavidLowe]

Good spot, only looking for one.

The other answer that you might have chosen was a bit misleading (fixed)

[Karsten Iwen]

This is a really hard one (EDIT: no, not at all)!

Spoiler

A) Could be. If I want to have independent Auto-VPN domains, I need separate organisations.

B) That won't work

C) The device-limit per network (is it still 1000 devices?) will not change regardless how many organisations you have. And the answer is not referring to the organisation-limit of 25k (same here, still in place?) devices. BTW: is there a documentation if there are any Meraki-networks that big?

D) Well, it would give you the MSP-navigation. But for which benefit?

I would expect the right answer to be A)

I was kind of blind and was reading that it was about splitting the organisation into multiple organisations ... OMG ... So here we go:

A) No, one organisation is one AutoVPN-Domain.

B) No, the date will not change.

C) Yes, it will give you n* the device limit per network up to the organisation-limit.

D) No, as this is only for multiple organisations.

So the only hard part was reading the question correctly. That can also give you a "fail" for a real exam ...

Answer - C

if you want different Auto VPN domains you would use a different Organisation

[inderdeepsingh1]

Even for the MSP option we required multiple organizations and here, the question is for only one organization : so no with option D

Auto VPN uses different organizations and the option is not the part earlier , fixed by @DavidLoweso no with option A

Option B is not the Answer, so the answer is option C

By the way, @DarrenOC good reference doc

Another week, another answer!

This time we were looking for...

C.) To avoid exceeding Dashboard limitations with the max number of devices per network

Thank you to All-Star Profile: UCcert for providing us with the relevant documentation and best practice guides: https://documentation.meraki.com/Architectures_and_Best_Practices/Cisco_Meraki_Best_Practice_Design

As a quick note there are limits of:

• 25000 devices per Organisation
• 1000 Devices per Network
• 1 (active) MX per Network

Personally I haven't seen Networks / Organisations reaching these numbers (apart from the MX!!), what about you lot?

Thanks @DavidLowe , My answer was correct 🙂
