Hi everyone, Is it possible to get information on the MT Sensor roadmap ? I am asking myself if there will be some sort of dedicated gateway (other than MV or MR) that can cover more than six sensors? Thanks in advance. Best Regards Niklas

Hi everybody, I am working on a project at the moment where multiple branches need to be configured. My idea was to use Bulk Network Creation Tool with a predefined "base" template to create those branches networks within dashboard. Did i get this right that changes made to this template afterwards get automatically pushed out to all networks that are bound to this template ? Additional i can easily configure local changes for each network individually, right? Is there something special to keep in mind when doing so or is it just straight forward as described ?` Thanks in advance Niklas

Hi TippTop, Maybe this documentation article does help you. https://documentation.meraki.com/MS/Port_and_VLAN_Configuration/Recommended_Configuration_for_Trunk_Link_to_Non-Meraki_Switches Kind Regards Niklas

Hi everyone, Can't you just go to Organization's Tab and select "Firmware Upgrades --> All networks tab" and then select the relevant devices you want to upgrade ? All my devices are up to date so i can't test it right now but at least i am able to select them one at a time and schedule an upgrade for each of the selected devices. Maybe give it a try 🙂 Kind Regards Niklas

Hi jorge-diaz, I have the same "issue" at home with my MX64. When i visit a blocked category the website request just times out. As far as i know the reason behind this is that Meraki MX devices can't perform SSL decryption for HTTPS websites. Umberlla does display a block page even for HTTPS connections because Umbrella can do SSL decryption. "Without the root certificate, when your users go to that service, they will receive errors in the browser and the site will not be accessible. The browser, correctly, will believe the traffic is being intercepted (and proxied!) by a 'man in the middle', which is our service in this case. The traffic won't be decrypted and inspected; instead, the entire website won't be available." This is a extract from an Umbrella article explaining the SSL decryption feature. When you have no root certificate installed in Umbrella it behaves just like the MX devices now and the connection times out rather than you getting an block message. So if my assumption regarding this topic is correct i dont really think that there is a chance for a workaround. Hope that helps 🙂 Kind Regards Niklas

Hi all, I have created a small Python script that reads out your organizations devices and then checks them against a .csv file containing the current EoL/EoS announced models. If you like have a look at it, i have uploaded it to github: https://github.com/NikGl/Meraki_EOL_Check.git What the script does: 1) Collect all your organizations devices from dashboard API. It then saves the model names and serial numbers. 2) It reads in the .csv file containing the announced EoL models and saves the model names and End of life dates. 3) Finally it checks for model matches and lists matches in a "Eol Report" .csv file. In there will be the model name, the serial number and the date this model reaches end of life state. You just have to use your own api access key (the one used here is an example key from the Meraki Sandbox) and you would have to paste in your organization id (the one used here is the one of DevNet Sandbox Organization within the Sandbox environment). The Report .csv will be saved in the same location this .py file is. You could create a .bat file that starts the python script and use Windows Task Scheduler to periodically run this script to check for EoL devices. Little note at the end: I am not a professional developer, this was just a hobby project to improve my python skills and to get familiar with Merakis dashboard api. If you have suggestions for improvement please let me know 🙂 Kind Regards Niklas

Hi Varun1, Since your workers are already working from home i think there are not many ways how you can enforce such things. When you do have access to those laptops you could enroll them in Systems Manager and at least force them to have Antivirus installed or such things. Like kYotobi said Umbrella would be a suitable solution to your problem. However you would need to buy Umbrella Subscriptions since Umbrella is not part of your Meraki licenses. What Umbrella does is that it monitors your users DNS queries and checks them against a Talos (Ciscos Threat Response Team) database of malicious domains and checks the queries against policies and block-/allowlists created by you. When you have an active Umbrella subscription you then could give your users the lightweight Umbrella client to install them on their laptops. Then every DNS query of those user laptops would be checked against Umbrella to see if it should be blocked or permitted. Another (more simple solution in my eyes) would be that you tell your users to configure their laptops to use a VPN connection to your MX. https://documentation.meraki.com/MX/Client_VPN/Client_VPN_Overview Here's a documentation on that. Since Meraki uses L2TP there is no additional software needed for that. You just have to trust your users to configure it that way. I'm not quite sure if theres a way to force the laptops to use the VPN connection rather tham the "normal" internet connection. Hope this helps Kind Regards Niklas

HI nikmagashi, I am not quite sure but may it be possible that you have to put the RADIUS key in the secret field under RADIUS server and the other field is just for a shared secret that you choose for your cilents to establish the VPN connection? So you can choose the shared secret and have to put in in when establishing the connection. The final authentication is against the radius server. I havent configured this before... so its just an idea 🙂 Kind Regards Niklas

Hi, Do you have Meraki Secruity Appliances in your network as well ? If so have you tried to go to the Security & SD WAN Tab in your Dashboard and see if there are any Content Filters under the catagory "Content Filtering" ? The websites you named fall under the following categories and may be blocked. https://rateyourmusic.com - Entertainment & Arts https://www.zillow.com/ - Real Estate https://ijetbrains.com - Computer & Internet Info https://1x-rate.com/ - Gambling https://autodesk.com/ - Business & Economy, Computer & Internet Info Apart from that it may be that Advertising is prohibited as part of an Layer 7 Firewall Rule. When users search in Google they get advertised links which are then blocked. Both are just some ideas. I hope it helps 🙂 Kind Regards Niklas

Hi all, I am currently planning a deployment for a customer working with mentally handicapped people. He said that they have some rooms which need to be video monitored. I did not find any information if the Meraki cameras are impact resistant/rugged or something like that. (The customer told me that some of the patients get aggresive and may try to hit the cameras with different things) I hope you can help me out. Thanks in advance!
