Yea, same question as Philip.   We have Cisco APs, local/centralized controllers, but guess SSID tunnels back to guest wlc in a dmz. Works fine and it doesnt matter if it's a MPLS site or a Meraki based site, centralized wlc or flexconnect. Guest SSID is all fine and dandy.   We did have one little issue at one site, but it was a mtu issue when we tried to use a GRE tunnel over the Meraki connection - haven't messed with gre since. Otherwise, zero issues. ... View more

Z3 and MX wireless options are fairly limited when comparing to the MR APs. As others said, it doesn't have all these options.   If you need anything beyond basic SSID/wireless features you will want to go the traditional AP route (MR).   ... View more

The number to contact Meraki support is under the help page when logged into your org.   Did you ask the person who sold this if it was removed from their network/org? Though, typically you receive an error saying it was already claimed.   Meraki support can tell you more. ... View more

Yea, based on this design it appears it appears of the primary goes offline then everything fails, including the secondary.   Actually, the secondary in this config actually does nothing. Unless there is more to this design you are not showing. Such as vlan3 being served by some other links to the internet. ... View more

Does the soft client work different than say a Z3? I have never had issues with multiple Z3/MX at home for testing behind a single NAT router. But I have never tested the soft client. ... View more

When they cold reboot how long do you have them wait before testing? Have you let it sit for 30min to see what would happen?   Repeat offenders, can you move them to 15.x beta? ... View more

Double edge sword.   On one hand someone may want to see all addresses handed out via DHCP. On the other hand someone may want to see just the "regular" dhcp clients, not known clients which have static reservations.   If it were me, I think I'd care about non-static only.  ... View more

Same. "User" is contained in all user based networks, and the site code for company locations. VPN hubs have a different naming convention. Nicely groups things together, and the filter + naming standards make it super easy to find anything. ... View more

Don't think of network like "wan", think of it like physical location. If you had 20 physical locations would you want to look at a flat view where you couldn't differentiate which subnets went to which physical location? Of course not.   Network is honestly a poor name. If you only have cameras is "network" a good name? Nope, "location" or "site" would be better. A location can have a MX, sketches, APs, cameras, etc. ... View more

Are all of the Meraki switches non-blocking, or only certain ones? ... View more

Since the Meraki's are going to separate switches I'd be worried about the trunk being lost and the Meraki's going dual active.   While I cannot find my Meraki document I referenced years ago, Aaron's article still exists: https://www.willette.works/mx-warm-spare/   However, it does look like Meraki treats warm spare slightly different between NAT and concentrator modes:   "In order to receive heartbeats in a one-armed concentrator configuration, both VPN concentrator MXs should have uplinks on the same subnet within the datacenter.   For Routed mode configurations, both concentrators must be able to communicate using the LAN ports."   If you make the directly connected ports a dedicated /30 subnet you shouldn't have to worry about loops or anything. I have mine setup this way....but I also run NAT mode 🙂 ... View more

Do any video guys care about configuring a network switch? Probably not, which is probably why Netgear and others are preferred.   Also, this isn't an insult, as I am one of those "video guys". Been doing audio/video for just about 20 years, I just happen to also belong to our network team and cross pollinated to network. Heck, just the other day I had to spin up a Dante mic and DSP for some work stuff. I grabbed the smallest PoE layer 2 switch I had from the supply drawer (it was a Crestron switch). It powered the devices, passed the packets and the gear is none the wiser. Sure, I could have used one of the Meraki switches I had in the adjacent drawer, but I didn't want to deal with a switch that took longer than 5 seconds to boot...lol ... View more

I suspect they dont prefer Meraki for NDI because Meraki probably has little interest qualifying it. If you look at the list of certified switches from Audinate for Dante, it doesn't include Meraki. But they work just fine.   While I have not done anything with NDI specifically (only Dante), if the core specs pan out you should be OK. Backplane (non-blocking) is probably the most critical. ...

Should not lose any settings or matter, but it should be pretty easy to test if you have a couple spare pieces of gear. 🙂 ... View more

So it sounds like this page requires your non-Meraki VPN to be connected, correct? If that is the case and the page is not part of your Meraki network it does not make a lot of sense.   Is the page you are trying to load part of the vpn tunnel and not a split tunnel exclusion? ... View more

I'm curious, why did you just not just directly connect the two MXs for the heartbeat using its own vlan? That is an acceptable design from Meraki. ... View more

That is an odd setup, and it would seem to make more sense to have them all combined together. I presume the same support team provides support to all of the devices, correct? With different networks you could have different permissions.   Maybe someone else will chime in with an advantage to this, but to me it seems very odd. ... View more

I agree with the above, set the range once and never try to grow. Always easier to slice up, never easy to combine. I put all my templates in /19 ranges just to be safe, regardless if I carve up as a /24, /29, etc.   Maybe the Meraki is having an issue trying to grow from the bottom end? Rather than growing from the upper end? ... View more

Correct, vlan can be on a layer 2 switch without needing to be configured on the layer 3 switch.   In my picture you will see 1234 exists on the switch, but not the MX. If you configured 1234 on the switch and any layer 2 trunks it should work just fine.   The part I have not tested/confirmed is if the MX will pass the "1234" vlan when "allow all vlans" is enabled on a MX trunk port. You cannot allow just 1234 on a MX trunk link without it being configured, and obviously there would be no layer 3 routing if you did not configure it.     ... View more

vzwinternet is the correct apn. It's what I have on my mx67c.   Have you connected it via hard wire first? After that, remove the hardwire and give it a solid 5 minutes.....just don't touch it. Sometimes mine acts goofy on initial load.   Otherwise, it's been working great on Verizon. ... View more
