I appreciated the quality of the 500-220 practice questions. The materials helped me build a stronger understanding of the technical concepts.
Three of the 85 questions in this pack
Question 1
Which two features can be configured on a Cisco Meraki MX security appliance and on a vMX virtual instance? (Choose two.)
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A, D. SD-WAN policies; Layer 3 and Layer 7 firewall rules
Both the Cisco Meraki MX security appliance and vMX virtual instance support SD-WAN policies and Layer 3/Layer 7 firewall rules as core security features. SD-WAN policies enable traffic management and path selection across WAN links, while firewall rules provide stateful inspection and content-based filtering. These features are fundamental to both physical and virtual deployments of the MX platform. Client VPN, Active Directory integration, and threat protection are features available on MX but have limitations or are not fully supported on vMX in the same manner.
Why the other options are wrong
- B. Client VPN functionality is not consistently available across both MX and vMX platforms with feature parity.
- C. Active Directory integration is an advanced authentication feature not uniformly supported on vMX instances.
- E. Threat protection capabilities differ between MX hardware and vMX virtual deployments due to performance and licensing constraints.
Question 2
Which Radio Frequency (RF) Profile setting is typically used to decrease the Service Set Identifier (SSID) overhead, exclude legacy clients, and promote more efficient client roaming?
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Minimum bitrate
The minimum bitrate RF profile setting directly reduces SSID overhead by preventing the broadcast of management frames at slower legacy data rates, excludes older wireless clients incapable of higher speeds, and promotes more efficient roaming by encouraging clients to maintain connections at higher data rates. By setting a higher minimum bitrate, legacy 802.11b or low-speed clients cannot associate, and the access point avoids reserving bandwidth for lower-speed transmissions, resulting in improved network efficiency and more deterministic roaming behavior.
Why the other options are wrong
- B. Channel width affects spectrum utilization and throughput but does not directly address SSID overhead or legacy client exclusion.
- C. Band selection (2.4 GHz vs 5 GHz) determines frequency usage but is not the primary mechanism for reducing overhead or promoting roaming.
- D. Transmit power range controls coverage area and signal strength but does not reduce SSID overhead or exclude legacy clients.
Question 3
For which two reasons can an organization become “Out of License”? (Choose two.)
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B, C. more hardware devices than device licenses; expired device license
An organization is out of license when it has more hardware devices than the number of device licenses purchased, or when device licenses have expired. Both scenarios represent a mismatch between what is deployed and what is properly licensed. License location and serial number matching are administrative concerns but do not directly cause an out-of-license state.
Why the other options are wrong
- A. License location in the network does not determine licensing status.
- D. Serial number mismatches are tracking issues, not licensing compliance issues.
- E. Model mismatches for MR devices do not create an out-of-license condition by themselves.

What makes the ECMS hard
ECMS is the only Cisco exam that is entirely Meraki, and it assumes you have lived in Dashboard. There is no CLI on this blueprint; the questions are about how you would design, configure and troubleshoot MX, MS, MR, SM, MV and MI from the cloud, and about the licensing and organisation model underneath all of it.
Design and Monitoring and Troubleshooting are 30% each. Design covers scalable Auto VPN architectures, vMX deployment, routing designs, redundancy, QoS for voice and video, and high-density and guest wireless. Troubleshooting covers Dashboard alerts, logging and reporting, the Dashboard API, firmware upgrades, and diagnosing Layer 2, Layer 3 and wireless client problems. Implementation at 25% is configuration detail: MX SVIs, Auto VPN, SD-WAN, 802.1X access policies, SSIDs, RF profiles, and Systems Manager profiles. Cloud management at 15% covers the cloud architecture, organisation structure and permissions, and licensing.
About the exam
500-220 (Engineering Cisco Meraki Solutions v1.0, ECMS) earns the Cisco Meraki Solutions Specialist certification. It covers Meraki cloud management and licensing, designing Auto VPN, routing, security, wireless and endpoint management, implementing MX, MS, MR, SM, MV and MI, and monitoring and troubleshooting from Dashboard. No prerequisites; Cisco recommends the Engineering Cisco Meraki Solutions Part 1 and Part 2 courses.
