Cloud-optimized SD-WAN for every branch
Keep branches online and apps fast with cloud-optimized SD-WAN, managed from one dashboard.
Keep users connected and secure from anywhere
Traditional WANs are costly, rigid, and hard to scale. Cisco Meraki SD-WAN replaces MPLS and complex hardware with a cloud-managed solution that keeps every branch resilient, secure, and optimized for modern applications.
- Replace MPLS at lower cost with broadband, LTE, and intelligent path selection
- Protect every branch with built-in firewall, IDS/IPS, AMP, and content filtering
- Ensure uptime with seamless failover across dual uplinks and LTE backup
- Manage everything centrally through the Meraki Dashboard with real-time visibility
- Deploy in minutes with zero-touch MX appliances and cloud-based provisioning

Cisco Meraki frequently asked questions
Cisco Meraki SD-WAN includes a comprehensive security stack built directly into every MX appliance, with no additional hardware required. This includes next-generation firewall (NGFW), intrusion detection and prevention (IDS/IPS), advanced malware protection (AMP), and content filtering. Security policies are managed centrally through the Meraki Dashboard, giving IT teams consistent visibility and control across all branch locations. This integrated approach eliminates the need for standalone security appliances at each site and simplifies compliance management for organizations in regulated industries.
Momentum handles the full lifecycle of your Cisco Meraki SD-WAN deployment, including network design, site provisioning, security policy configuration, and ongoing management. Buying through Momentum means your team gets value faster with less operational overhead, because Momentum manages the complexity of deployment and day-to-day operations on your behalf. You also gain access to Momentum's 24/7 proactive monitoring through a dedicated NOC, built-in escalation support, and the option to bundle Meraki with Momentum's broader portfolio of connectivity, collaboration, and voice services under a single partner and a single bill.
Traditional WANs rely on expensive, rigid MPLS circuits and dedicated hardware at each location, with limited visibility and slow provisioning. Cisco Meraki SD-WAN replaces MPLS with lower-cost broadband and LTE connections, using application-aware routing and traffic shaping to prioritize critical apps like Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and Zoom. The entire network is managed through a single cloud-based Meraki Dashboard, giving IT centralized control over networking, security, and performance across all sites. This approach reduces costs, improves agility, and makes it possible to bring new locations online in minutes rather than weeks.
New branch locations can be deployed in minutes using Cisco Meraki's zero-touch MX appliances and cloud-based provisioning templates. MX devices arrive preconfigured, so they connect to the Meraki Dashboard and download their policies automatically once plugged in at the site. There is no need for on-site IT expertise or manual configuration. Momentum accelerates this further by handling site provisioning, security policy setup, and network integration as part of a fully managed deployment.
Yes, you retain full access to the Meraki Dashboard at all times. Momentum's managed and co-managed service models are designed to reduce the operational burden on your IT team, not replace your visibility or control. Your team can monitor network performance, view security events, and make configuration changes whenever needed. Momentum handles the tasks you choose to offload, such as provisioning, monitoring, troubleshooting, and escalation, while you maintain oversight of your entire network environment.
Cisco Meraki SD-WAN is ideal for organizations that need secure, reliable branch connectivity with minimal IT complexity. It is particularly well suited for SMBs, multi-location retail businesses, and Cisco-centric IT environments that value simplicity, integrated security, and fast deployment. Retail organizations use it to optimize bandwidth for POS systems, guest Wi-Fi, and inventory applications. Healthcare providers use it to securely connect clinics and hospitals to centralized health record systems while maintaining compliance. Financial services firms benefit from its high availability, robust security, and ability to prioritize mission-critical transactions across distributed locations.
