About the Cisco Meraki MX Meraki MX65 Cisco Meraki MX security gateway

The Cisco Meraki MX65 is a cloud-managed SD-WAN security gateway delivering up to 250 Mbps recommended maximum throughput, designed to protect and optimize branch and edge networks without on-premises complexity. This appliance combines stateful firewall, intrusion detection and prevention (powered by the Sourcefire engine), content filtering, and advanced malware protection into a single unified platform managed through the Cisco Meraki cloud dashboard. Network engineers and IT procurement teams benefit from centralized visibility, policy enforcement, and rapid threat response across distributed locations.

The Meraki MX65 integrates 12 Gigabit Ethernet ports—2 WAN ports and 10 LAN ports with integrated switching—to connect multiple subnets and upstream circuits without external equipment. It supports up to 50 concurrent VPN tunnels with a maximum VPN throughput of 100 Mbps, enabling secure branch-to-branch and branch-to-cloud connectivity. SD-WAN capabilities deliver intelligent path control and application-aware routing, while AutoVPN simplifies site-to-site provisioning through cloud-brokered automation. Client VPN access via IPsec and IKEv2 extends secure remote work capabilities. Category-based content filtering powered by Cisco intelligence and seamless Cisco AMP integration provide layered defense against evolving threats, all configured and monitored from a single cloud console—eliminating manual firewall management across multiple sites.

Typical Deployment Scenarios

  • Branch office security and WAN aggregation with integrated switching for small-to-medium networks
  • Secure multi-site connectivity using AutoVPN without requiring manual IPsec configuration at each location
  • Remote workforce access via client VPN with centralized authentication and threat prevention
  • SD-WAN path selection to prioritize business-critical applications across multiple internet circuits
  • Inline threat detection and malware sandboxing to block advanced attacks before they reach internal resources
