Hi All,   I don't think this is possible but may as well as the collective and see.   At one of our Production site we have 4 SSID's 3 have password authorization and 1 is guest authorization (i.e. guest registration).   1 of the SSID's is for production kit (i.e.. tablet, terminals etc).  Anyway I've been asked if there if we can get a bit of equipment on the wireless via MAC authorization.   My question - is there a way of using the existing production SSID  for both MAC and Password authorization or would I have to create another SSID with just MAC authorization.   Thanks Dave ...

Hi All,   We are going to be implementing SD-WAN with MX appliance and I was wondering if anyone know of any good training courses  or companies either free or paid.   Obviously with the current situation they will have to be online courses   Thanks Dave ... View more

Hi All,   Looking at using the Band Steering option to push devices which are capable of 5ghz over to that but still need the 2.4ghz as well.   So may question is where to set the band steering option, the doco I found says configured on a per SSID basis under Access Control.  However I noticed there is a RF profile where you can configure Band Steering for either per AP or per SSID and all the AP's use the RF profile it would make sense to configure it there.   So where is the best place to configure this option or do you need to do both?   Thanks Dave ...

We have the following WiFi setup at one of our offices.  10 Cisco AP’s being managed by a Cisco Wireless Controller there are two main SSID’s for the office a Corporate and Guest.  The corporate WiFi is routed over the WAN and the Guest is routed out via a dedicated DSL line. The DSL router is plug into a network and a VLAN has been assigned to the port and the Guest interface on the Cisco controller has the same VLAN assigned. Devices on the corporate WiFi receive a DHCP address from the local DC and devices on the Guest receive an address from the Cisco Controller. So it’s been decided that we are going to replace the existing Cisco AP’s and Controller with Meraki AP’s and cloud controller which is simple enough but they still wish to use the DSL line for the Guest SSID which seem to be a little difficult. If I set the SSID to NAT mode I can get a DHCP address from the Cloud Controller but this does not sort VLAN’s and will not use the DSL line. If I put the SSID in Bridge or Layer 3 mode I can VLAN it off to the DSL Line but there is no DHCP server, so the devices do not get any addresses. Has anyone come across this situation or have any ideas.  The only ideas I can think of is either put a small MX appliance in or use the current router.   Thanks Dave ... View more

Hi All,   I'm new(ish) to Meraki.   We have 28 Meraki AP's at on of our sites which is providing access to company laptop's and for devices in the factory via two SSID's.   When the dashboard was initially setup only one network was created which seemed OK as there was only one site. But now as per normal there is now talk of implementing meraki at other sites.   I'm thinking of creating a template based copied from the current network and then creating individual networks for each site and binding them to the template.   Should I use a template and individual networks or just have one network for all sites? What are the issue with using a template versus individual network and manually syncing them? Will all the setting from the current network copy over to the template?   I hope that makes sense.   Thanks Dave ... View more

Hi,   We are just moving over to Meraki MR33 and the cloud dashboard.    We currently have a Cisco Wireless Controller and Cisco AP's where we create the Guest accounts.  We currently have a Guest WiFi which is Vlans off to a separate DSL line via the controller.     We would like to do the same on the Meraki Dashboard but allow guests to create their own accounts.   Is there anyway of doing this without a MX appliance?   Thanks Dave         ...
