Configuring a L3 interface on MX250

[LeAnts]

Im a cisco, forti  and palo guy - meraki still very new to me.

i cannot find a way to configure just a normal L3 interface without specifying a vlan tag id.. is this possible? doesn't look like it.

ive done in on the uplink ports thats fine and working.. but on the GbE ports seems not an option..

on other FWs you'd create a L3 interface, then sub-interfaces if you want to do vlan ports.. but Meraki it seems i am forced to use vlan tags from the get go.

thanks in adv

No, it's not possible you need to create a VLAN interface.

Thanks for clarifying..

Another important point is that MX does not support LACP

You don't have any direct interfaces on the LAN side of an MX.  However defining a VLAN and having that VLAN on an access port on the firewall or as native and only VLAN on a port is basically the same as defining an "interface" on the other types of firewalls.

Do mind that indeed some needed features are missing like the spanning-tree support and port-channel/LACP support as alemabrahao mentioned.
