Every network connects employees, contractors, IoT, printers, and guest devices—but most environments still rely on:

• Shared Wi‑Fi passwords
• Flat networks with static VLANs
• Manual device exceptions
• Little visibility into who or what is connected

Traditional NAC solutions promise security—but often demand:

• Dedicated appliances
• Specialist knowledge
• Complex policy engines
• Long deployment cycles

Cisco Access Manager is a cloud-based Network Access Control solution purpose-built for Meraki-managed wired and wireless networks.

It allows you to:

• Identify every connecting device or user
• Authenticate based on identity, not location
• Assign access automatically based on role or device type
• Enforce segmentation consistently across sites

All managed from the same dashboard your team already uses.

Built for Meraki Environments

Because Cisco Access Manager is native to Meraki, it avoids the common failures of bolt‑on NAC solutions:

• No separate policy engines
• No synchronisation issues
• No additional infrastructure to manage

Cisco manages updates, scalability, and platform availability—as part of the service.

Access is controlled using the same RBAC and auditing mechanisms already in place within Mera
