I have a primary fiber line that I use for VPN tunnels and Video Conferencing and other business critical services. We also have a 100/20 Comcast line for emergency fail over.
The reception in the building is terrible so I like to have a mobile SSID available for the employees to do WiFi calling or check their emails on their breaks. For this I use the Meraki DHCP and NAT settings on the SSID which gives the mobile devices a 10.0.0.0/8 IP.
I currently limit the bandwidth on the Mobile SSID but I would rather just send the traffic out the lower quality failover Comcast line. However, I am having a little trouble because my internal IPs are 10.0.x.x as well. I do not see a way to send traffic out an interface by VLAN or SSID.
Solved! Go to solution.
I believe in theory for this to work, you would have to use bridge-mode and have a dedicated VLAN for the mobile SSID your talking about.
Then, using that subnet you provide it, you would go into Security & SD-WAN > SD-WAN & Traffic Shaping, and there configure Flow Preferences.
So your source would be that subnet for that SSID, and preferred uplink would be WAN 2 for example.

Thanks,
I supposed I could use the MX as a DCHP for that VLAN for the SSID and use a smaller subnet which would allow me to route the traffic.
Alternatively if your AP’s are all on the same management vlan you could configure that subnet to flow preference out wan2. When doing dhcp with NAT on a MR all clients src NAT to management IP of MR pre egress.
In this scenario the MR would also talk to the dashboard using WAN2.
food for thought
