PRTG Meraki integration using Netflow, hardware recommendation

Votes:

0

Have a customer, currently 5 sites (MX firewall and MR WAP), they are happy with features on Meraki Dashboard, but the data lapses after 30 days. They would like to have data available for 3 years in the past. They want following info:

  1. How many users connected to the WiFi across all sites, and on individual sites
  2. Top websites
  3. How much data have they used (each user and a site).

The solution needs to accommodate 15 new sites in near future (total of 21), while prospect is to get total of 300 like sites monitored the same way.

  • How do I do it with Netflow?
  • Roughly, what hardware configuration might be OK for PRTG to run on it exclusively?
  • Expanding from 21 to 300 sites is preferred through adding disk(s) with higher capacity

Please advise or give some directions...

Thanks

You may want to use the SNMP OID Table sensor for the wifi users (it may or may not work). What type of sensors and how many would you like to use on each site?
