licensing

hey guys

 

I am purchasing an MR36, my question is about licensing, since I will only use it as an access point on an intranet.
What does this license offer me? For what purposes do I need a license?

Hi ,

 

This is a good documentation related to basic questions around licences : 

https://documentation.meraki.com/General_Administration/Licensing/Meraki_Licensing_FAQs

 

Do I need to have a license for every piece of Meraki hardware?

Yes, every Meraki hardware component requires a cloud license to be managed. Meraki hardware that isn’t licensed won’t pass traffic.

 

 

You will need a licence for every Meraki device.

Bear in mind too - the Meraki AP will need to be able to communicate with the Meraki Dashboard, via the Internet, to operate effectively - even if your user-traffic does not touch the Internet.

without a license it doesn't work

An unlicensed MR36 makes a very elegant (if rather large and expensive) door stop...?  😁

But when you license it...   https://tenor.com/bQRKu.gif

It's true, today I use Unifi 6 LR, but I'm having some problems with the network, which I believe are not the antennas but rather a line of equipment that uses SP8266 for Wi-Fi communication.
