Configure Cisco Meraki Systems Manager
Cisco Meraki Systems Manager supports a variety of platforms, enabling the diverse device ecosystems that are commonplace today. Systems Manager offers centralized, cloud-based tools for endpoint management with far-reaching scalability for growing organizations. Integrate Cisco Meraki Systems Manager as an MDM server in Cisco ISE to leverage the endpoint information that is collected by Cisco Meraki Systems Manager for compliance checks and endpoint policy management.
For more information about Cisco Meraki Systems Manager, see the datasheet.
Cisco Meraki Systems Manager now supports MDM API version 3 and can provide Cisco ISE with a unique device identifier for connected endpoints. If you already have an active Cisco Meraki Systems Manager integration in your Cisco ISE, carry out Steps 8 to 15 for the Cisco ISE-related device profile in your Cisco Meraki Systems Manager.
