This research explores the integration of Meraki MX with Cisco DNA Center to better operate networks, automate management processes, and ensure network performance and reliability. Modern network environments are becoming increasingly complex, and organizations are seeking solutions that make it possible to enhance automation, reduce manual work, and improve operating efficiency. The study primarily evaluates the level of automation through the Meraki MX device, scrutinizes the implementation and performance assured through Cisco DNA Center, and investigates the positive impacts of merging them on performance efficiency and efficacy of the operations in the networks. This exploratory qualitative piece synthesizes qualitative case studies based on secondary research on expert views and technical manuals regarding the aspects and best practice that could or are being accomplished in this mergence. The results indicate major network performance improvement, which include a 6.5% increase in uptime, a 62.5% reduction in troubleshooting time, and a 20% increase in network health score. On the other hand, the issues included compatibility with legacy systems, initial setup costs, and training of staff were identified. Based on the research, the conclusion is that integration offers great advantages in terms of automation and efficiency in operation; however, it has to address these challenges to be successfully implemented. It seems the research helps develop a better understanding of how the union of Meraki MX with Cisco DNA Center could optimize network management by giving practical insights into surmounting integration hurdles and maximum performance.
