Re: Optimal Settings for Wireless Roaming

Is this how it works? Every time a client roams to a new AP the whole DHCP process restarts and the new AP will provide a new IP address?  ... View more

Re: MR57 or 9166?

by UKDanJones in Wireless LAN
yesterday
yesterday
I don't think there is any push from meraki to use the IoT sensors in the 9166 as they already have their own IoT sensors available. You will never need more than 1 Gbps over the Ethernet connection unless you're planning on running 160/320 MHz wide channels (which you never will in an enterprise environment).  ... View more

It only allow up to a max of 30 days, provided the face value matches. So i can only have a $30 prepaid card, tied to a 30 days plan. From what i understand, it will expires every 30 days this way, and got to insert a new code again. ... View more

Re: Multicast Basic's

You only need one of them configured on the switch were your core AV device is that discovers all the A/V devices on the network(and put the querier on the correct vlan). You also only need the IGMP querier if they are on separate switches. We had a Shure vendor tech support try and tell us that the Mics didn't support vlans but that was just them trying to blame our network for audio streams making it to the core device but getting silently ignored(when they had been working for years before without issue). ...

Re: Cloud Archive License Renewals Confusion - Co-Term or Per-Device?

by JFurlong in Smart Cameras
Thursday
Thursday
The problem is that there's no leeway for co-terming the licensing. If they go without the 7 x CA licenses for a month, or use a trial license (not even sure they offer those for CA), they're still going to have to -- again, based on what Meraki support said -- renew all 17 CA licenses at the same time as the MV & MRs, despite 10 of the CA licenses indicating they're valid until 2025.   Regarding, Plan B -- according to the documentation: "When a cloud archive license is removed from the camera, the Cloud Archive functionality will continue to work for 24-hours from the time of un-assigning the license. This is meant to allow changes to your cloud-archive retention period without losing the previously stored video." Since the cloud archiving is a cost item for Meraki, since they're pushing the video to a cloud service (Amazon or the like), I don't think they're going to give 30 days grace. Anyway, that still wouldn't solve the issue of being told to renew 100% of CA licensing despite 10 of them not expiring until 2025. ... View more

That should never have worked.  I would expect you would need to loop through the output of getOrganizationInventoryDevices() and print out the serial number field of each device.   Untested, but something more like:   for device in dashboard.organizations.getOrganizationInventoryDevices(organization_id,total_pages='all'):   print(device['serial']) ...

This could easily be the end user's Internet connection.  It would be their WiFi connection. You don't mention the type of VPN you are using.   If you are not using AutoVPN, could you buy a Z4 for one of the users?  This will collect a lot of stats about the connection BETWEEN you, and also let you see the quality of the end users Internet circuit.   Below is an example of the kind of statistics that can be reported on when doing this. Of interest is MOS - which is a measure of voice quality.  You can also define performance classes when you do this. ... View more

Re: Recommendations for casting - Meraki Wifi

mDNS which is the discovery process generally used is not meant to scale well in high client count environments. The clients will send a discovery and all devices that are capable will respond. If you are having issues with discovering devices limiting where they are observed would help. For casting it would be unicast to the TV where it would send a single stream and make sure reachability and bandwidth between the devices are there to support the cast.    Back of the napkin math of ~30 clients per AP and 28 APs is 840 devices. 28 classrooms assuming 1 AP a classroom and 1 TV per classroom isn't untenable, in terms of multicast but all TVs would respond any time someone looks for devices to cast to. This puts it more in the High-density category and less about the multicast traffic to me.  https://documentation.meraki.com/Architectures_and_Best_Practices/Cisco_Meraki_Best_Practice_Design/Best_Practice_Design_-_MR_Wireless/High_Density_Wi-Fi_Deployments ...

@alemabrahao it's all about getting the result, even in a recent refurbishment, we had to cancel replacing a bundle of 120 unshielded CAT5e cables with new CAT6a as the cost of taking down all the ceilings, opening up the roof and the re-doing it all would have taken the project up to £100k over budget.  We ended up using the shortest length possible,  re-terminating them all and creating a patch frame out of wooden and angle iron offcuts that would fit into a 80mm deep void.   Horrible solution, but often what you need to do in the real world! ...
