Right.  I guess that is the crux of my challenge trying to sell Meraki (or many things) online.  How to make sure I know my current cost. because I don't intend to be loading every online purchase in CCW.  Well, not small orders at least. ... View more

Thanks.  We are cost plus too, but some of us got accustomed to having a simple, up to date sheet for quick calculations.  I am also working on an e-commerce project where I want MSRP easily too.   So far, I have a 250MB flat text file from Tech Data with our costs to work with 😉 As primarily a Mac user it was fun to realize I couldn't open it in Google sheets or Numbers because it is too big.  I also took the spreadsheet provided via merakipartners.com that has all the parts without prices and uploaded it into CCW as an estimate.  Then I exported it to get all the MSRP.  Wonky, at best since I would want to update it every 30 days at least to stay up do date.   Anyhow, thanks for the reference to that Cisco tool.  I will be exploring that soon.     ...

Also if you want to communicate with people in Cisco - WebEx teams is the way to go since they all have and use it. https://www.webex.com/team-collaboration.html Good point ;). So I have a WebEx Team with no one but me in it ready to go.  Anyone who wants to share their email (DM is best I suppose) and I will invite you.  At the very least those of us not yet familiar with Teams can play around and learn to use it (and maybe to sell it).  I would like to ask that you provide me some proof that you are working for a Cisco partner- like let me lookup your email domain in the Cisco partner locator or something.  I could also make a general team, but I really have some interest in making friends with other partners to begin with.   Thanks! ...

Cool.  I am all tech and nerd at heart and I hate salesing myself, but on the other hand I am a small business owner so it really cannot be avoided if I want to pay the bills 🙂   Even if there does not ending up being a forum here maybe we can connect on Slack or Glip or something.  I am on a vendor specific Slack channel (Zultys) with dozens of other partner techs and business owners that is really useful.       ...

I see this at the bottom of an MX data sheet:  POWER CABLES 1x power cable required for each MX, 2x power cables required for MX250 and MX450. For US customers, all required power cables will be automatically included. Customers outside the US are required to order power cords separately.   https://meraki.cisco.com/lib/pdf/meraki_datasheet_mx.pdf   My experience in the US is that a power cord is alway included *unless* you specifically order just one with multiple devices.  So if you order 10 MXes and one power cord you well get exactly that.  If you just order 10 MXes you will get 10 power cords with them.     ...

I would ask your Cisco reseller for a free trial to be sent to one of the sites.  If it works you can just pay for it and keep it.  It seems very unlikely for an ISP to be blocking Meraki.     ... View more

@NolanHerring wrote: I use this Acceltex AP/Antenna mount for my MR74 in warehouse. Thankfully it has two of these i-beam bolts that clamp down so its very secure, but even with both of those, I still require the installers to have a metal wire cable crimped to the antenna mount itself, and to the i-beam because if this thing were to get knocked by a forklift or something, the Ethernet cable would not be able to hold it. If this were to fall from 40 feet its going to do serious damage.   http://shop.acceltex.com/product_info.php?cPath=113&products_id=273       Good point.  OP might consider a safety strap so even if it comes loose from a ceiling tile it can't fall on someone. ...

This shouldn't be needed at all unless you are blocking outbound traffic with higher priority rules.  It does not appear that way from your screenshot.   At default, Meraki will allow all traffic to flow. ... View more

Sorry but I am not really sure.  It is something you may just need to try and see.   Wy couldn't you add another domain though?  It would be cheap and easy and seems to have a good chance to work.   Another idea might be to use Meraki authentication for staff and give them all account credentials.     ... View more

I think you would only be able to separate these if you can use two different domains.  *Maybe* you can have a subdomain or alias in GSuite that would work.     So if students and teachers all use myschool.com maybe you can also have myschoolabc.com or myschool.net in GSuite for them to use for the purpose of WiFi authentication.     ...

Also, even if you made it work with Meraki and antennas there is a problem of Meraki only allowing one VLAN to be bridged.  It would not work as true Layer 2 bridge. ... View more

Yes, I have had "weird" and inconsistent results as well.  I don't consider it much more than a base line test and don't completely trust it.  That said, I think it is still a useful starting point, but I would not take the results and tell a cable contractor they need to go fix their cable necessarily without closer inspection.     ...

I guess you tried factory defaulting them?     Maybe you could try moving some to a different network temporarily with a minimal (or no) configuration and monitor them for a few days to see if they still reboot.  This may help rule out a software issue vs. hardware. ... View more

I've seen these third party tracking applications that integrate with Meraki: https://create.meraki.io/build/rtls/#how-to-integrate-with-stanley-aeroscout   It will depend on what kind of assets and if you plan to purchase tags, I suppose, but it is technically possible. ... View more
