That is correct. Any time we do a static address on anything, it just works as long as that port has the correct VLAN associated with it.

I read that page as well, and that is how all of ours are configured right now.

The odd thing is that it was working when I left the office yesterday, and then today when I came in they aren't. I don't know what changed besides us swapping out a switch stack last night. There were no configuration changes though, so I'm not sure what the issue is.

Yes, that is how we have it configured. We are using a VLAN for our AP Managment, and we have that set as the native VLAN. Then we are pointing tagging the SSID with the appropriate VLAN that we want to use. The thing is that we are in the process of migrating from our current 2960 switches to the Meraki switches. All the APs that are still on one of our other 2960 stacks are still working, but the ones connected to the Meraki Switches are not. So I'm assuming it has to be a setting somewhere that I'm overlooking or not aware of. Wired connections off of this same switch are fine. Also, if I static code an IP to my wireless interface, and connect to the WiFi in question, it works fine. It is like I'm not hitting the DHCP server for some reason.

We have no other options in DHCP enabled. DHCP for the Avaya system is coming straight from the controllers, and the DHCP for the data VLAN. I tried setting the options linked to in the first post and that didn't make any changes to how things ended up on this end. It is very odd. We have some older phones at this locaiton, so I am thinking of trying a newer phone to see if there is a difference.

We are swapping out our old Aruba network for a Meraki option. We have had our wireless up and working for about 2-3 weeks now, so we were going to start installing all the switches that we purchased as well. Last night we rolled over on of our closets from the old Cisco equipment to the Meraki. For some reason this morning we are now having issues with our WiFi. It will not pull and address in our basement or first floor, but will work fine on the second floor on the same SSID. I'm new to Meraki, but this doesn't make any sense to me. It is all the same network, so I don't understand why one AP will allow us to connect, while another will not.

We are in the process of updating our network to Meraki, and we have started to swap out our switch stacks with the new Meraki Stacks. We started with some small closets, and did our first real "production" stack last night. Everything seemed to go well besides some small mistakes that we made with our patching, however we are seeing a new issue now. We have an Avaya VoIP system in place, and any instance where the user is connecting their computer to the Avaya Phone instead of using a dedicated drop, the computer will not pull an IP address. We have the data and voice VLANs set for that port, and it shows the Current Clients on that port associated with the correct VLANs. The issue is that the computer never pulls an IP and gets the default 169.254 address, but if you static code the computer with a valid IP, it works fine. We are migrating from Cisco 2960-X switches, and everything seemed to work fine there. So I'm not sure if there is an issue with our Meraki Configuration, or if there is something up with the Avaya system not allowing the DHCP requests through. Any guidance would be appreciated since I'm still trying to get used to this Meraki Dashboard.
