Cisco Meraki: Fast, Simple, and Powerful Network Deployments

IT teams are being asked to do more with less: to support corporate devices and any other device a user prefers. To transition to a wireless office and support remote working. To enable massive device expansion and constant digital collaboration. To provide zero downtime and constant change. And we’re supposed to accomplish this with shrinking budgets and in many cases, fewer or even a single IT employee!

For us to survive, infrastructure has to be simple. Simple enough to allow IT to be nimble and adapt with the business. Simple enough to allow IT and companies to focus on their true mission.

Cisco Meraki has helped tens of thousands of businesses quickly deploy and manage more than 1 million networks around the world and in this meeting you’ll learn how to quickly deploy and manage security appliances, wireless access points, switches and cameras from a single dashboard. You’ll learn how to set up branches in minutes by configuring gear while it is still on the shipping truck and by templating commands across hundreds or even thousands of locations.

Humphrey Cheung, Consulting Systems Engineer - Cisco Meraki

Humphrey Cheung has been with Cisco for nearly two years and is currently a Cisco Meraki Consulting Systems Engineer covering Southwestern US Enterprise accounts. Prior to Cisco, he worked at Panda Restaurant Group as a network engineer. He is also the founder of the RouterGods Meetup Group.

From 2004 to 2008, as a Senior Editor for Tom’s Hardware Guide, Humphrey wrote hundreds of reviews, news articles, produced dozens of videos and appeared on NBC4, CNN, Fox News, LA Times, New York Times and the Wall Street Journal. He’s hacked wireless, gmail on live TV, hunted down online scammers and even filmed an electric motorcycle inventor almost killing himself during a demonstration.

When Humphrey is bored of routers and wireless access points, he runs into conflict zones wearing body armor, carrying cameras and piloting drones. He dodged gunfire in the 2010 Bangkok Riots, laughed off artillery in the 2011 Libyan Civil War and breathed a lifetime's worth of tear gas during the 2013-2014 "Bangkok Shutdown" protests.
