You can even pre-configure the module ports by using the new C9300-NM-DEFAULT/1 - 8 ports. The config on these ports will be copied to the actual ports of the module you install.  Great stuff! ... View more

Hello,   do you know if something in the meantime changed and MX68CW now supports CoA?   Thank you in advance! ... View more

The MX at this time does not support ECMP so you can only enter 1 route for each destination. However in your example you might run into an issue where you try to add an aggregated subnet 10.10.0.0/16 for where you already have a local VLAN 10.10.51.0/24 which is more specific. Normally you can have routes to less specific subnets and routes via several local subnets. But I would try to add a more specific route than the 10.10.0.0/16 first or remove the 10.10.51.0/24 subnets just as a test and see if you can add the aggregate route then.  Usually you can also see the error in a red banner on the top of the dashboard page.  But sometimes these can be hidden and show themselves when you push via API, ...

Support for the C9500 (device configuration mode) is only coming in 17.18.x  I believe the documentation right now says it is not supported yet. ... View more

I believe this was mentioned a year ago.  However I have looked at the most recent CLUS presentations (especially that one from Brennan Martin). There it was indeed stated that fully cloud managed (or configuration source cloud as it is called now) switch don't get the full config mode yet and will have to rely on dashboard availability for features. So in the case of OP it would be better to remove the switch and fact default it and then add it with configuration source local to still have these features. ... View more

The Bulk Network Creation Tool is designed for managing or deploying multiple networks. This tool streamlines the creation of networks at scale and becomes available once at least one configuration template exists in your Dashboard.   Accessing the Tool You can find the tool by navigating to: Dashboard > Organization > Configure > Bulk Network Creation   Configuration Options When creating new networks in bulk, you can choose from the following configuration sources: Default Creates new networks using the initial default configuration in Dashboard. Copy settings from (network name) Uses the selected existing network as the template for configuration. Bind to template (template name) Binds new networks to an existing configuration template for centralized management.   CSV Import You can upload a .csv file to create multiple networks at once. The CSV must include: Required: Device serial number(s) Network name(s) Optional (Recommended): Additional configuration details (e.g., tags, time zone, notes)   A sample CSV file is available for download by clicking "Sample import file" in the Dashboard. This sample provides the correct format and required fields for successful import.   ... View more

The MR36/46/56/76/86 are WiFi 6 models, not 6E which means no support for 6 GHz. If you are considering warehouse coverage with directional antenna coverage then you have multiple options: Oldest option: Use the MR46E for dry/normal temp warehousing where you can attach any 6 lead antenna that suits your needs (MA-ANT-3-X) or one from different known vendors like Acceltex. Newer options: If 6 GHz is a requirement (haven't seen any warehouse devices supporting 6 GHz in the field yet) then you can choose between the WiFi6E or WiFi7 range devices (CW916x or CW917x) however the indoor models don't have any external antenna possibilities due to regulatory issues in the 6 GHz space. The outdoor CW9163E does have external antennas.  The WiFi7 model is not here yet. ... View more

I know this thread is a couple years old, I've experienced this too.  The issue appears to be a question of how the WAN ports are being configured.  The MX units ports can be configured through the Dashboard, but it will not stick or it will lie about a config.  My most recent experience is that our WAN1 port had to be configured with a Vlan ID tag for the traffic to reach the other side.  In the Dashboard, the tag was setup correctly.  When I consoled in, the tag was missing.  So, going forward, all new configuration changes to the MX WAN ports will have to be done through the console port, on site.   ...

When you are pinging the AP's from your infrastructure you are not testing client experience but rather the management plane connection speed between the AP and your monitoring system.  As @cmr has mentioned, the AP could be busy and be a little slow to respond to ICMP echoes.   Things you should be monitoring are the following: Channel airtime AP CPU and RAM Client RSSI/SNR Average client onboarding experience Average client frame latency and drops. Channel airtime can be viewed from dashboard and is maybe available via the API, not sure. Onboarding expierence can be vewed per AP or per client. RSSI/SNR can be viewed in client view or by going to the AP and viewing the currently connected clients. Average frame latency and drops can be viewed from the RF spectrum page. You can also have thousandeyes integration with your managed clients to see their wireless experience over time. ... View more

That was one of the first features I asked at CLEUR this year and they confirmed that the feature would be very handy but is not implemented right now.   The idea behind it is that the BGP based non-meraki VPN is primarily used for SASE solutions where you use a non-meraki VPN tunnel to tunnel all your spoke traffic to a central cloud based security system (like secure connect, secure access, etc...). Using the route based VPN via BGP to route to extranets or certain service providers is however problematics since you cannot filter their incoming routes or your outbound routes to the ones are relevant to that connection. ...
