<div tabindex="0">
<P>Cisco Packet Tracer supports a simplified version of the Meraki Security Appliance (SA), MX65W, and a cloud based Meraki web server.</P> Configuring these devices is done via web configuration.</div>

<div tabindex="0">

<p>A powered up Meraki Security Appliance (SA) can be configured via an HTTP session from a PC to the SA with the URL <strong>http://setup.meraki.com</strong>. The user name is the SA's serial number with no password. The SA's serial number can be found on the Config tab of the SA. Prior to the HTTP session, the PC is either configured with a static IP address of the network 192.168.0.0 or is obtained a DHCP address from the SA.</p></div>

<p>Further configuration of the Meraki SA can be done on the Meraki cloud, a web server, that provides unified management of the Meraki SAs from a centralized dashboard.</p>
<p>Below is an example of a topology that has both a Meraki SA and a Meraki server.</p></div>
