To hell they are working on it, they are crickets to even post an update! They do billing just fine, but getting required features they don't care. ... View more

I am not going to take the time to hunt them down, but multiple eMail's. Also look in this forum, they missed their own set deadline to just extend it to just mad a damn announcement! But they sure as hell can bill you for support and kill your networks but tell you tough luck when asking about IPV6 support. The account manager just says noting now. There is no reason at all to use Meraki for anything IMHO! ... View more

The issue is that Cisco/Meraki has promised IPV6 since the first MXs can our and they should have never released the product without it.  Cisco/Meraki will never be recommended by us at this point and we are recommending removing all equipment. ... View more

I hear you, we have been actively tearing Cisco & Meraki out and will continue to do so. They want their money for licenses and will turn your networks off, but they will not fix what they have promised. ... View more

Why pay them? I have licenses that are expiring next week and we have been bugging Meraki for IPV6 for years now. They promised by the end of September only to miss that after years of crickets. I don't understand why in the name of hell we should pay them for a single thing. ... View more

We pulled all clients off of MX a bit over a year ago and we will have Meraki completely out within 90 days. I can’t wait! We are waiting to order and deploy 4 Nexus 7700s due to this at a larger client and are currently actively recommending against Cisco in any way just due to this. ... View more

We pulled all of our MX’s from clients out a bit over a year ago and within six months will be totally Meraki free. We are trying to use nothing Cisco over just this. We have a need do four of the Nexus 7700’s and have put that off almost 9 months due to this. They need to fix this ASAP! ... View more

@Austin You hit the nail on the head if you need IPv6 then you have to change infrastructure which is what we are recommending to anyone using anything Meraki. This disgusts me and has left a huge black mark on my company for recommending this stuff.  ... View more

Yeah TL I know what you mean, my nightmare of losing an almost 7 figure a year client came true last week due to Meraki sitting on their arse about this. They are blaming us and talking about a lawsuit.  ... View more

I have a meeting next week with a large gaming/hotel company that we are recommending to remove ALL Meraki and goto another solution immediately. They are looking at over ten thousand room's of hotel space and Meraki just doesn't give a hoot. ... View more

The T-Mobile IPV6 is going to cost a multi hundred device deal with a client of mine. We highly recommended Meraki a while back and the lack of support and the promise of it is coming but never being here has egg all over our faces. ... View more

Yes, I want that as well, but if they are communicating with an internal server they are only seeing 5mbit of throughput, I want to limit internet connection to 5mbit only.    Client - Internet - 5mbit Client - Intranet(Internal Servers) - Unlimited ... View more

MX Group Policy BW Limit

When I set a group policy bandwidth limit it seems to also limit the amount of traffic that is available locally as well over the wifi network. Is that true? If it is, is there a way to separate it?    Thanks! ... View more
