Good Morning/Afternoon!

Got some general questions regarding the Meraki Switch.

I am not super familiar with this ecosystem, so I will field questions as best I can.

Topology: I have a MS120 that is uplinked to a Z3 with direct internet access. The Z3 is managed by a MX84.

I have configured the Z3 with the appropriate firewall rules to permit the various connections out to the Meraki Cloud to establish connectivity on the MS120 from the dashboard.

But best practices for my organization are that nothing on our management network can go direct. (Naturally)

As such, I need to proxy the management connection from the MS120, through our Z3 to our Zscaler gateway. The kicker is that all clients in our environment already run a Zscaler client, so I do not want their connections being proxied halfway across the country to this gateway because they are already being proxied.

Long story short, does Meraki allow this level of granularity in its proxy configuration? I am struggling to find options and or other cases such as this in the dashboard or on the web. (Could be that I don't understand it well enough)

I have tried quite a few things, I can list them if that's beneficial. Appreciate any information/Guidance/Pointers here.

If you’re setting up proxy options on a Meraki switch and need detailed steps or best practices, check this link for clear guidance. It covers configuration methods, recommended settings, and tips for keeping the connection secure and stable. This should help you choose the right approach whether you’re using it for basic web filtering or more advanced network routing.
