Migrate Cisco WS-C4948 configuration to Meraki MS225

 I have the following configuration from a Cisco 4948 that I need to replace with an Meraki MS225 . How would I implemented this configuration onto the Meraki Dashboard ? 

 

interface Vlan1111
description HQ
no ip address
ip helper-address 10.10.10.9
!
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.10.1.1

Thank you

This configuration doesn't make sense, if the Interface doesn't have an IP it can only be L2, this is probably an old configuration that was forgotten.

 

Default gateway: When creating the first IPv4 interface on a switch, you will be prompted to enter a default gateway address. This is the next hop IPv4 address of another device on the network, used for any traffic that isn't going to a directly connected subnet or over a static route. This IP address must exist in a subnet with a layer 3 interface, and will be used for the default route next hop IP address.

I am not a Cisco Meraki employee. My suggestions are based on documentation of Meraki best practices and day-to-day experience.

Please, if this post was useful, leave your kudos and mark it as solved.

@alemabrahao  Thank you for the link. For DHCP relay, the documentation suggests that I should create an IPv4 Layer 3 SVI but as per the above configuration there is no ip address configured? 

 

Also, for the default static route referenced in the config, should I expect the management interface to handle the traffic? 

 

Thanks

Thank you for the feedback. You are probably right; this is indeed acting as layer 2 access switch and some of the configuration may be outdated.
