This guide describes the steps required to configure Cisco Meraki Security Appliances to send logs to a Samurai Local Collector deployed on your network.  Cisco appliances require access to the Local Collector via syslog on port 514/UDP.

To complete this Integration you will need to:

1) From the Meraki Dashboard:

• Meraki syslog configuration

Meraki syslog configuration

Log in to the Meraki Dashboard and complete the following steps:

1. Click Network-wide.
2. Click General.
3. Click Add a syslog server.
4. In the Server IP field, enter the IP address of the Collector appliance deployed on your network.
5. Specify the Port as 514.
6. Select all the available Roles.
7. Click Save.

For integrations that utilize a Local Collector where we ingest syslog only, you do not need to follow specific steps in the Samurai MDR Application as we auto detect the vendor and product. The only reason you need to use the Samurai MDR Application is if you need to determine the Local Collector IP address. Of course you will still need to ensure the integration is functioning!  See Integrations for more information on checking status.
