Infrastructure-as-Code is arguably the most foundational aspect of NetDevOps. Tying in tenets of software development allows network engineers of the future create robust, repeatable, scalable and intuitive networks. At the heart of all of this is the code and APIs. Using the Meraki Dashboard APIs in code, this session will explore deploying and managing Meraki network devices to support security, dynamic switching and routing, wireless, and streaming video for people counting and physical security.

The Cisco VNI predicts that by 2021, global IP traffic will reach 3.3 zettabytes (the gigabyte equivalent of all movies ever made willcross IP networks every minute). Also 53% of all traffic in 2021 will be over Wi-Fi. This session will help you plan for a high-performance deployment and management with Meraki wired and wireless networks. You will learn best-practices around capacity and high-density so that your wireless network is ready for the future ? You will learn how to also manage tricks to manage IOT devices in your environment. Meraki has built a variety of innovations and industry firsts within the portfolio around design, deployment, analytics and performance management, the demos for which will be provided in this session. This session should help you optimize your existing deployments as well as prepare for the future standards such as 802.11ax and WPA3
BRKEWN-1683
This session will be a culmination of all of the Infrastructure-as-Code sessions, providing an end-to-end demonstration and explanation of all of the parts and pieces that make up the IaC model. We will see a Meraki network stack go from uncabled and powered down to up and running and securely accepting wireless client connections in a matter of minutes by leveraging Meraki's APIs. Following that, we will see a captive portal automatically deployed and start collecting user engagement data. Once clients start connecting and the network cameras come online, we will see the tracking stream data that will allow us to make dynamic infrastructure decisions. Finally, just to put the icing on the IaC cake, we will tear it all down with one command and reset all of the devices to be redeployed. All. Through. Code.

ideo cameras are becoming IT centric technologies that are no longer exclusively the responsibility of the physical security team.This session outlines the potential for cameras to become a sensor for the enterprise, and showcases how Meraki MV Smart Cameras are enabling this today. Importantly, this can be achieved without having to put your video in the cloud, or investing in large amounts of computational infrastructure typically associated with machine learning.
At an abstract level, cameras collect imagery which is a complex source of data. As machine learning and big data technologies mature, how can we make this information useful to business functions beyond just security."

With almost 75% of mid-sized to large enterprises estimating that the majority of their apps will be SaaS by 2021, the shift to new WAN architectures and solutions is critical - which is why SD-WAN has been taking the industry by storm. In this session, we will look in depth at Cisco's Meraki-powered SD-WAN offering: how it works, the different elements of the path decision making, the most effective ways to deploy, and key design considerations - among other topics. The session will also cover the WAN and application analytics capabilities that are available in the Cisco Meraki platform.

A network is only as good as it is secure and historically deploying a security plan (firewalls, VLANs, application policies, etc) had been a tedious task. If we add in the security profile as part of the Infrastructure-as-Code plan, that profile can scale as the network scales. In similar fashion to network provisioning and monitoring, we're increasingly given the opportunity to define that security footprint through APIs and code. In this session we will see the options available for using APIs to configure network segmentation, firewalls, application and content management and even device control.
