Which client using WAN 2?
Hi,
We recently updated to 18.107.2 and changed our client tracking from MAC to IP. Now I am seeing a steady stream of UDP traffic over WAN 2 via wireshark. Is there a way to tell which client is using WAN 2? The primary is WAN 1 and WAN 2 just being used as a failover. We did have some flow preferences to try to send the guest wifi subnets over WAN 2 but it never worked. Packet capture is just a steady UDP stream with ICMP sprinkled in.
Thanks,
Rob

With a packet capture.
Note: ICMP traffic is not subject to traffic shaping rules. As a result, Flow Preference will have no impact on ICMP traffic.
I am not a Cisco Meraki employee. My suggestions are based on documentation of Meraki best practices and day-to-day experience.

Thanks for taking the blinders off. Ran on MX LAN port vs WAN. Found the culprit.
