@JED2021 what is your question?

All VLANs exist, it is an SVI that you are creating for VLAN32.

[JED2021]

Vlan 32 is new  and will support layer 3.

It is added via the MX250 not the switches.

[cmr]

VLANs are a layer 2 construct, they become layer 3 enabled by creating an interface either on an MS or MX.  Are you asking if your setup is correct?  If so then it looks okay to me.

[JED2021]

yes I understand the statement.

Its is added on the MX so it is supporting layer 3.

I was just seeking a +1 since more of an IOS person not a Meraki Gui

Hi @JED2021 , the Config looks fine as that would create your later 3 interface on the MX which I assume you’ll Trunk to your down stream switches.

Just one question, why not configure the L3 int on your switches instead? Are your switches L2 only or was this done from a security perspective?
