yes, which firmware do you run?

- We use bpdu-guard for client ports to prevent spanning-tree problems f.e. when users connect switches to the ports. - We use loop-guard on switches with multiple uplink-ports to prevent loops in case of spanning-tree or aggregation problems. - We don´t use the root-guard option because our core-switch is the rootguard with the best bridge ID priority value. So it´s not neccessary. https://documentation.meraki.com/MS/Port_and_VLAN_Configuration/RSTP_on_the_MS_Switch https://documentation.meraki.com/MS/Port_and_VLAN_Configuration/Switch_Ports https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/lan-switching/spanning-tree-protocol/10596-84.html https://documentation.meraki.com/MS/Other_Topics/Switch_Settings

Yes, we do the same. And it´s working with port scheduling on the Meraki switches.

Yes, if the pin needle factory reset doesn´t help you should open a case to get an RMA.

And, sorry for this question: is the patch-cable in order? Once I had a defective cabel with that kind of problems.

Yes, I have to replace 21 switches in different locations. That is not a good karma. It would be really nice to get a license duration upgrade or something else.

A strange thing happened today. I did an software upgrade from 25.11 to 25.12 on one of my WLAN-networks. And now some of the accesspoints are showing the software version 26.0 altough 26.0 wasn´t offered. Two of four accesspoints are on 25.12 and two are on 26.0.

I know that the software updates didn´t helped. So this is why I had to replace all these switches in the last month. The question now is: was this replacement resolving the issue or do I have to replace all the switches again. Until now I did´t have any temperature issues.

redsector · ‎Aug 28 2018

Oh no, I got a mail from Meraki that I have to replace 21 Meraki MS225-48LP switches. But I am wondering why. I had to replace switch by switch the last 18 month because of the fan issue. And now I have to do it again? Im worrying how to do that.

redsector · ‎Aug 6 2018

Yes, I had to change some switches three times to get a good one.

redsector · ‎Jul 24 2018

No, each switch will keep the own IP-address.

Wanted to do the updates last week from 10.6 to 10.29 while the 10.30 was arriving. So I changed my schedules to 10.30 beta. And while upgrading to 10.30 the status changed from beta to stable release candidate. This quick changes where pleasantly surprising me. But now in the end everything is working well with 10.30

Yes, while upgrading from 9.x to 10.x we had some spanning-tree loops too. It was with stacks. But after this all the upgrades were working fine. 10.x has some nice features and spanning-tree configs that I can use. And it´s more stable in the end. So, now I did update 7 of our 8 networks. The last one I will do in two weeks when the other networks are doing well.

Hi, I want to update my switches (many MS-8P and MS220 and MS225, some are stacked) from 10.6. to 10.29. I want to remove some stacking issues and I like to have the UDLD and the spanning-tree guard feature. Are there any experiences with that update? Thank you Markus

After weeks spending with support and a Cisco Case Cisco made a patch on our Cisco-ISE. It´s working better now, not perfect but better. Now we have this ISE versions: Version: 2.2.0.470 Patch Information: 1,2,7,8,9

Hello, We have an problem with our guest WiFi. The splashpage from the ISE doesn´t appear for signing in. With Windows notebooks, Android devices and Apple Notebooks it´s working well but not with Apple iPhones (from IOS 11.3 and 11.4). Its working with the iPhones on Cisco Controller based wireless LAN conncted to the same ISE. Has anybody problems with iPhones and Meraki and Cisco ISE?

redsector · ‎May 4 2018

I have got eight wireless networks with MR32, MR33, MR42, MR52 (not MR34) on firmware version 25.11 and they are working well.

You can do redundant links with port aggregation. Then you don´t need STP.

redsector · ‎Mar 13 2018

I agree to that.

I like 10.9 10.x has Loop-Guard for the uplinks. Switch stacking issues are gone now with 10.x It´s running well on a network with 23 switches MS220 and MS225, stacked and non-stacked, layer2 and spanning-tree, aggregated ports and connected to Cisco 3850 distribution switches and Cisco Catalyst 6800 Cores.

Maybe the cable had an loose connection. If you pull it back to the first port and checking if it´s good connected you will find out if this was the problem. Turning off the power saving for the network card will not save a lot of energy, I think you won´t find a difference in the energy bill. regards

- I had this kind of problems with Dell PC´s. After firmware updateing the network card it was gone. - Some other devices like Apple iMacs had this problem, and I solved it with fixing speed to 1GBit on the switch, since then there wasn´t this problem appearing - some other devices had a power-saving problem, and then the link speed changed all the time. After switching off power saving the problem was gone. good luck.
