Hi All,
I am planning to use the Meraki Security Cameras MV22 - Indoor and MV72 - Outdoor. But it will be using the HP PoE switch for the physical connectivity and SOPHOS Firewall for the Internet access.
I would like to know will there be any challenge or it should be straightforward once i will connect these Meraki Security Cameras to the LAN (which has the Internet Access already) it should work fine.
Any thoughts or suggestions ???
Thanks
The MX72 needs 802.3at power, so make sure the HP switch is 802.3at.
When you log into the Meraki Dashboard you can go "Help/Firewall Rules" in the top right hand corner. That will give you the rules to configure on your Sophos firewall.
Hi Phil,
This is the switch we have got. Will this work?

When it comes to SOPHOS Firewall Rules if i will allow any/any from the Security Camera VLAN. Will that not work ?

this will work... Or as Philip said, you can configure the following:
