VLAN or STATIC Route to take all Traffic on specific SSID and Route to Server on LAN

[Sean_R]

Hi All!

My Name is Sean, not new to provisioning, but newer to Meraki.

I am trying to do the following:

• Set up an SSID
• Static rout traffic from that SSID on (MR35) to IP of Server on LAN

I cant seem to figure out how to Route that specific traffic to the IP address on my LAN. I have treid:

• Setting up a VLAN to segment traffic from default route VLAN.
  • I cant figure out how to correctly set this up to do that.
• I assigned a static route to the IP Address of the NAS on my LAN, but traffic would not route.

My Gear:

1. MX64
2. MS120
3. MR36
4. Linux Based Network Server

Any suggestions would be great.

Thank you, 

Sean

Here’s a suggestion, not sure if it will work, but it might be heading in the right direction.

1. Assign the SSID to a VLAN
2. Have a Layer 3 interface for the VLAN on the MX64
3. Configure a source-based default route to your server

Note: you need MX15.4 or later, your server needs to exist in a subnet that is configured on the MX (or connected to another MX, which is connected via AutoVPN), and it won’t work if there is a specific route for the traffic on the MX, it’s only for default routed traffic (I.e. no known route).

Have a look at this document, https://documentation.meraki.com/MX/Networks_and_Routing/Source_Based_Default_Routing

Give it a try and see how you go.

Hi Bruce,

Awesome, ok, I will try that and read the doc link you posted. I will report back what I found.

Thank you for the response.
