Automate MAC Addresses added to meraki Networks.

Dears, 

 

Can anyone support me to Automate Add MAC Address (Add Client) with the Meraki dashboard instead of adding it manually?

 

more Clarification:

 

We have several Sites in our company and I need when new employees come to receive their laptops, make it connecting to any site automatically, instead of adding it manually for all site (networks) one by one, as it takes a long time because we have over 25 appliance.

You can automate your current workflow by utilising the API. https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/#!provision-network-clients

 

However what's the use case of manually adding the client to each network? Is it in order to apply a group policy? In which case can it be applied via matching an MS AD group?

Thank you bro for your reply, 

I Added them manually because I make a policy for anyone who joined the network with a limited speed (50 kb), so when a new employee joins this site I want to change his policy from normal to Allowed (5 MB), so can use the network with good speed. So I want to automate this with his first day receiving his laptop (upload bulk of MAD address to the bulk of different networks).this just some of our networksthis just some of our networks

Sounds like a lot of overhead.

I suggest looking into using RADIUS or Microsoft AD groups to apply the group policies.
