Wireless Access in Nat Mode, need to access wireless scanner from Lan

We use scanners in our company that can be wireless,  our Meraki wireless is configured with Nat Mode

"Clients receive IP addresses in an isolated 10.0.0.0/8 network. Clients cannot communicate with each other, but they may communicate with devices on the wired LAN if the SSID firewall settings permit."

 

What SSID Firewall rule would I have to use to allow the wired computers to see the wireless scanner?

 

Thanks in advance.

You need to configure bridge mode for this:

Inbound client connections - NAT mode with Meraki DHCP prevents inbound connections to a wireless client”

Thank you,  I was just hoping there was an easy rule to create.

To piggyback on what @KarstenI said you can also create a wireless ssid hidden/broadcast for the scanners in bridge-mode and then allow the Meraki wireless network to communicate with scanner network.

That sounds like an idea.  I may give that a try.
