@Jeff-Lthe thing is, Our organization was enrolled in the private beta testing this before. So I already have several switches in this Org running in Hybrid mode. That is why in my understanding it was already working in my org. ... View more

We've got a whole bunch of 9200s that  would love to have in Meraki mode. I want to wait what Cisco gives me back on this before I go forward moving all 9200s from the old Cloud-Monitored mode to Hybrid mode, because if it failes more I would seriously have a problem. Now I've got enough spares to swap this one. ... View more

Had contact with someone from Meraki Support. The person claimed it was supported. So also send the case to my Account manager because I don't think it's true. But on the other hand. Another switch shows this with the same firmware version and running in Hybrid mode already. =========================================================================================== Meraki Cloud Monitoring: Compatible =========================================================================================== Meraki Cloud Management: Compatibility Check     Status ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Boot Mode               INSTALL  - Compatible ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Switch#  SKU                                Bootloader Version              Network Modules ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2        C9200-48P          - Compatible    17.15.1r        - Compatible    C9200-NM-4X    - Compatible    Compatible SKUs: C9200-24P, C9200-24T, C9200-48P, C9200-48T, C9200-24PXG, C9200-48PXG, C9200-48PL Compatible NMs : C9200-NM-4G, C9200-NM-4X, C9200-NM-2Y, C9200-NM-2Q   ...

Just updated a c9200-48P from 17.12.3 to 17.15.3 the following way Removed it from the Meraki Dashboard Updated the firmware Added it to the Meraki Dashboard   The following issue arose. I didn't get a question about the credentials for Hybrid mode. Now it's added as a Meraki cloud managed switch. The configuration was lost so I had to recreate the configuration. Luckily only AP's where connected who all had the same config. ... View more

I've got already several switches running on version 17.15.2 and will be upgrading them to 17.15.3. The new Cloud Monitoring is indeed much simpler then before. I need to upgrade all of them to do it the correct way. 🙂 ... View more

@cmr it Also depends on what functions you need from the Meraki Dashboard on the switch. If the CS firmware supports is and the IOS-XE not you shouldn't upgrade. Otherwise I see in my opinion no reason to not upgrade. ... View more

Comment from Cisco   Our engineering teams pushed a fix for this issue late last night. Please test and let me know if you are now able to make successful configuration changes, from my perspective everything appears to be working correctly at this time.  ... View more

They did something on the backend for me also, but that didn't fix the switches I factory defaulted. The still running stack they didn't fix yet. ... View more

I'm now running a nice stack of 4 C9300-48 perfectly. Now you can also easily find out what cli commands are used the configure an trunk port in the Meraki Dashboard. This makes it easy to create the correct port settings for devices not in the Meraki Dashboard for configuration. ... View more

I've talked with Cisco about Access Manager and also our organisation is one of the lucky ones to test this feature.  I must say it's very easy to setup and will most likely be something that would be able to replace your ISE setup if your only using the basic stuff. We've only tested MAB for now, but you can connect it to Entra ID for example to work with certificates and then do fully 802.1x. ... View more

Found out the the new firmware is probably using other connectivity methods to the Meraki Dashboard. Haven't checked what is different exact but when connecting on the limited guest network with firmware CS 17.1.4 everything was working after the upgrade there was no connectivity to the Meraki Dashboard so the application wouldn't start. I did now send this data a different way to a VPN tunnel via the HUB and everything was working. ... View more

Still have the same issue. Tried to upgrade 2 C9300-48P and 2 C9300-48T from CS 17.1.4 to this version. No LACP configured. Getting the messages below.

For at least to differentiate between wired and wireless clients you need to use NAS Device Properties like Called Station ID for example. You can use the same as in Windows Server NPS. I think you need to add every AP in the Wireless section of Forescout. You can find this under Tools --> Options   https://docs.forescout.com/bundle/radius-4-7-3-h/page/c-properties-for-use-in-policy-c-d1e5130.html#t_radius_451_h_radius_properties_for_use_in_policy_c_d1e5130   ...

We are using Ansible to deploy Meraki switch configuration. This can easily be done. Our main issue with Meraki templates is that for example you cannot set STP values for stacked devices.   We are looking to do the templating via Ansible. Also we use Netbox as a Dynamic Inventory. I think the combination of the 2 is very strong. But this is my opinion. ... View more
