The Cisco Meraki firewalls, specifically the MX series, are hardware-based network perimeter firewalls.

They provide comprehensive security features such as site-to-site VPN, content filtering, intrusion detection and prevention (IDS/IPS), and malware protection support the protection of network, systems, and endpoints such as laptops, desktops, servers, and virtual environments, providing protection with configuration to analyze and accept only authorized network traffic into the organization’s network.

These firewalls are managed via the cloud, allowing for centralized control and monitoring of network traffic.
