300-435 Question 279
Select 2You are tasked with integrating Cisco Meraki's cloud-managed devices into an enterprise's automated network monitoring system. The goal is to retrieve real-time network health data and device status for proactive monitoring. Which API endpoint(s) in the Meraki Dashboard API would you use to achieve this?
- A
GET /networks/{networkId}/devices
- B
GET /networks/{networkId}/clients
- C
GET /organizations/{organizationId}/uplinks/statuses
- D
GET /networks/{networkId}/events
- E
POST /organizations/{organizationId}/networks
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C
Explanation
To monitor real-time network health and device status in Cisco Meraki, you would use the 'GET /networks/{networkId}/devices' endpoint to retrieve device-specific information and the 'GET /organizations/{organizationId}/uplinks/statuses' endpoint to monitor uplink health. These endpoints provide the necessary data for proactive monitoring in an automated system.
- A. Correct.
This endpoint retrieves a list of devices in a specific network, including details such as serial number, MAC address, and status, which is relevant for monitoring device health.
- B. Incorrect.
This endpoint provides information about clients connected to the network, but it does not offer device status or network health data directly, which makes it less relevant for this scenario.
- C. Correct.
This endpoint provides real-time status information about uplinks, such as connectivity and latency, which is crucial for monitoring network health proactively.
- D. Incorrect.
This endpoint retrieves event logs for the network. While useful for troubleshooting, it is not specific to real-time health data or device status.
- E. Incorrect.
This is a POST endpoint used to create networks within an organization. It is not relevant for retrieving monitoring data.
