Do you mean someone physically unplugging the AP and plugging in their own device?     It would depend entirely on the switch you are using, but practically I would say no.  You might find a way to use only tagged VLANs and black hole the native/default VLAN or not use DHCP as basic deterrents though.   Maybe best to go for physical security like using conduit and mounting height to prevent access? ...

Kind of a wild guess, but I saw similar with a new customer recently that has Meraki.  They had 8 MR's in an open office area that were about 30-50' away from each other.  They had inconsistent performance and poor Zoom calls quite often.  It was kind of obvious to me there was probably co-channel interference, but I verified it with a spectrum analyzer and turned the power down on all MR's to the minimum and haven't heard a complaint since. I also turned off most of the 2.4GHz radios for good measure.   All that to say, maybe co-channel interference if you have too many MR's near each other with power set to auto or too high? ...

Some conflict presumably, but I agree it seems like incorrect behavior.  There is a post about this, with some links to more information here too: https://community.meraki.com/t5/Dashboard-Administration/Z3C-Disabled-gateway-bad-connectivity/m-p/130002   I'll be curious to hear what you discover.  Good luck. ...

Maybe the same reason @cmr  suspected in a post above?  Maybe the device was "sleeping"/inactive at the moment showing in the screenshot and it would be normal behavior. It does seem the device was on the move between at least 3 APs.   Or did the specific client report some trouble and is that an example capturing the trouble moment? ... View more

It sounds like the SSID is not in bridged mode. You need that for external (from the AP) DHCP to function with clients.  ... View more

I actually don't agree with all three points you wrote.  I have customers that have or had MPLS over DSL.  MPLS doesn't care what transport it goes over. There is no particular reason you can't manage and monitor your MPLS unless the provider refuses portal access and features. MPLS does not imply all traffic goes through HQ, it can be configured as mesh topology too.   Besides that, I would think the main considerations are the same as just about anything in networking and technology-  Save money and improve reliability (assuming 2 or more WAN connections) Maybe improved bandwidth as well. ...

I just had an idea actually.  Make a rule specifically allowing that IP and point it to a "black hole" like an IP address in a VLAN that goes nowhere and has access to nothing.  If you can move the rule to the top of the list it may (should?) trigger first and have the effect of blocking.     ...

I don't think there is a way to block a specific address or subnet in a NAT rule.     You could drop them in the web server though, right?  And I guess you could put something upstream with ACL's to block specific IP addresses.   Do you have advanced security license?  You maybe able to do something there.   I have a similar situation with a FTPS server I maintain to send customer backups to.  It uses port 22 and gets hammered all day, every day.  I configured my server to block specific addresses and it also has a feature to auto block multiple failed attempts.   ...

Thanks @PhilipDAth that makes sense for MR. I think MX and MS if they sell you the license they will cover the hardware with it though, right? I know some licenses are labeled EOS but can still be purchased making me think if the MX or MS failed Meraki would replace with same or similar.  ... View more

I doubt anyone in these forums including employees will be able to tell you why.  I also don't think there is any law or regulation requiring Cisco to support anything for any specific length of time.  That said, consider the difference between end of sale, end of life and end of support.  End of support typically goes much longer and I think you can find Meraki devices still supported after 10 or more years.     As long as you can purchase a license it is supported, but if the hardware fails it may be subject to being replaced by a different device if the original device is no longer  available or being made.   Best. ...
