This is definitely still an issue   The MX100 seems to be as people have said dispraportionally loud. It starts up and the fans run full chat consistently.    Even if it is sitting in a 16 degree room.    I made another post earlier in the week about the MX100 and MX84 needing a refresh, but really the fan noise needs looking at.    We have them deployed in medium offices and do receive complaints about them. I have one internally in a sound proofed cabinet as its unbearable otherwise.   Installed a new one last week with 9 MS switches. The MX 100 is louder than the lot of them. I am not exaggerating either. You can tell when its powered off or on. In that instance its not a problem, but we tend to find in most cases the MX100 is too loud for its environments.    Has anyone that has RMA'd their device got one back that behaves any differently?  ...

That is correct - you need to be on the MS250 or above to run DHCP server on the MS line.   The option appears there, rather misleadingly I think.... but it doesn't work.   If you are using the MX to route then you can run DHCP on the MX If you are using the MS225's to route - then you can run the DHCP on the MX by pointing the switches to the MX.    If you have followed the best practise and enabled IP spoofing as per this article the MX may be unaware of the VLAN's. To allow it to run DHCP add them as a static route and the option to configure them for that subnet will appear in the DHCP section   Any questions just shout out 🙂 ... View more

I came across this exact setup today - it took a lot of head scratching for us to figure out what was going on. As the additional WAN subnet was not documented anywhere! So it appeared initially the MX was randomly routing IP addresses.    But this seems to work just fine. This setup has an ISR down the line on a 1 to 1 NAT without issue  ... View more

Thanks Philip! ... View more

Hi Philip,   Thanks - what I am trying to lock down is that the access VLAN between the MX and Layer 3 MS devices is also the management VLAN the switches take their IP from?   Thanks ... View more
