Hi,
we recently purchased 10 units of 9300 switches , we are interested in the switches being used as the DHCP of the for several networks , and we want the FW stay the DEFAULT GATEWAY for the vlans , we set everything
But we receive the MERAKI as the DEFAULT GATEWAY and not the FW.
network 192.168.100/24
ip interface 192.168.100.253
default gateway of the interface in FW :Does not exist but should be 192.168.100.254
Does anyone know what the problem is.
Thanks
Hi @shlomoi , that’s always the default behaviour with Meraki DHCP. You’ll need to create a new Option to amend the DFG.
but….i don’t believe you can set Options using the 9300Ms.
@cmr - I believe that was your experience of these?
@DarrenOC you are correct, it is not possible to create a number of DHCP options, generally ones where there is a name in Cisco IOS-XE, such as domain-name. It did also include NetBIOS node type and some others, but I do think that default gateway was one of the few that did work.
Hi, I set option 3 and you are right because I get an error message
So actually it is not possible to set up a dhcp server on the meraki
thanks
There were errors in saving this configuration:
yep, never understood why such a basic option isn’t supported in these newer models!
Of course I was 😆
It was always supposed to be supported when native IOS-XE Meraki was released. @GreenMan have you been able to verify that?
There's definitely no specific tie-up between these two things; the extra DHCP options don't become supported within the IOS XE 17.15.1.9 that's now available for the C9300 / MS390 platforms For the uninitiated this transitions these from a container-based architecture to one that is based on native IOS XE, with support for Meraki cloud management - check out all the details on this in the Release Notes available in Org > Firmware upgrades in Dashboard, for more on this - you'll find it under the Beta tab, for the time being)
There was however a significant focus on bringing this architecture change to fruition prior to bringing on other features. These DHCP options ould fall into the latter. Right now I don't have any extra info on timing for those.
Thanks @GreenMan, so perhaps the 2025 timeline I was given referred to a subsequent native IOS-XE release, makes sense now.
