So i again had an issue where removing some port configuration (sticky mac addresses and vlan config on access ports to endpoints) resulted in unexpected behaviour of our entire Meraki stack containing MX, MR, MS so i created a case. Apart from not being able to find the cause of the issue TAC also mentioned this : "but we need to keep in mind that changing any layer 3 interface on the switch causes a reload of the configuration and therefore a brief disconnection of the clients." This annoys me very much, already have experienced when adding a vlan interface the OSPF proces to our ASR routers got reset and indeed disconnects. But this restricts us from changing config during daytime on lots of items. How can this be accepted ? I know the OSPF process has to be reset when adding items but it would make sense to have a separate option for that. Also i find it unacceptable what support mentions "changing any l3 interface cause a reload of the configuration and thus disconnects clients" ... Seriously ?? How do other members here experience this behaviour ? I am used to Cisco devices and Meraki feels just so home-user here.
