Create Network Switch Ports Profile - Meraki Dashboard API v1 - Cisco Meraki Developer Hub Found it. It is under Port Profiles in the Early Access API. And we don't have any MS390's or C9300-M switches yet.

I'm looking around, but I don't see any API for SmartPorts yet? I'm not missing anything, am I? We are building a master "new network" script that automates nearly everything for an admin, and would love to be able to build out the SmartPort profiles for the various Trunk and Access port setups that we use.

I'm working on a script to update network alerts across our org, and while doing an alert export with the API, I came across this alert: {'type': 'weeklyUmbrella', 'enabled': False, 'alertDestinations': {'emails': [], 'snmp': False, 'allAdmins': False, 'httpServerIds': []}, 'filters': {}} What does this alert in the API match up to in the Dashboard? We don't use Umbrella in our org or in any of our networks, so not sure where this would be coming from.

Never did...but I noticed that if a network tag isn't being by any networks, it doesn't show up in the Tags tab in the Org Overview page. So, that is helpful.

We use webhooks to send a ton of various Meraki alerts to ServiceNow. The SN team uses their own scripting and logic to handle the creation of incidents based on those alerts coming in through the webhooks. For the "offline" alerts, if a device comes back online, the incident is automatically canceled. Helps with overnight outages due to ISP or local power maintenance. We've been doing this for a couple of years now, and we are cutting down on the type of alerts that generate incidents. Because some are just (for the most part) false positives or they generate a ton of incidents during occasional hiccups, like when a warm spare failover occurs and we end up with like twenty incidents for some reason. Cutting down on incident overload. My team is only a couple of guys managing nearly 100 separate networks.

Anyone see or hear of any reasoning behind this? Are there new features that won't be applied to these MX models going forward?

We just noticed a warning on the Firmware Upgrades page in our orgs. A bunch of networks with last gen firewalls (MX84, MX100, are getting the warning of "Restricted from versions 18.200 and higher:" Anyone else seeing this warning on their orgs?

A bunch of MX68W's and a MX65W were affected. We don't have any MX64W's running around. We did open a ticket, and they wanted us to do live packet captures while on the phone with support, and I never got around to doing that. It was quicker to just add a MR to those production networks, and then upgrade to the 17.x firmware.

We had something similar to this issue. Our corp SSID uses Radius auth from Windows 2016 NPS servers in our data centers, and for some reason, ONLY the MX's with wifi were failing when clients connected to the corp SSID. Since the NPS servers were in the data center, the Radius requests went over the AutoVPN. We switched those networks to using a MR instead of a MX with wifi, and we had no issue after that. We were hoping a firmware update would fix the issue, but switching to a MR for wifi was the only solution.

The "getNetworkWirelessSsid" command pulls all the info and attributes from the SSID on that network. And if try to add the various other PSK attributes, I still get the same error. Just very odd that the Python API is only letting me update the SSID name and status, and no other attributes or properties.

API Call - Update-the-attributes-of-an-mr-ssid So, I'm playing around with the API for updating a SSID. Using Python 3.9.4 and the latest Meraki module version. The bottom API call works fine, with just changing the SSID name and if the SSID is enabled or not. BUT, when I try to update other attributes (in the top API call), I get errors about syntax. Am I missing something here? And help would be appreciated.

Any word if Network/Policy Objects will include ports in the future, and not just Subnet/FQDN/IP values?

I have, but I'm curious how to use the Policy Object as a destination or source when writing a Python script to update a rule in a L3 Firewall on a MX.

Are there any examples or documentation on updating the L3 Firewall on a MX using existing Network Policy Objects with the API? I can't seem to find any examples to follow.

We ran into this exact same Radius failure issue with the 17.10.2 firmware (and still with the 17.10.4 patch). We have a couple of branch locations using the MX wifi and Radius over the AutoVPN to a data center. We rolled those MX's back to 16.16.8. For those couple of MX's at those branch offices, since no patch is forthcoming and we want to update the MX's, we've shipped them an AP to use instead of the built-in MX wifi. We opened a ticket with Meraki ourselves just to keep it on Meraki's radar.

I can confirm the "Fixed an issue that resulted in wireless clients experiencing degraded performance for HTTP and HTTPS traffic when content filtering was enabled." worked on a network using a MX68W for firewall/wifi. They were complaining of slow wifi speeds off the MX since being upgraded to 17.10.2 a month ago, and this patch fixed their complaints on wifi speeds.

Anyone have any good ideas for finding and tracking non-Meraki switches that someone (i.e., someone not on the network team) might plug into a network that is supposed to be full stack Meraki? You know, those times when a third party vendor (like a security or AV installer) or a user in an office might plug in a cheapo switch to add more ports to a spot in the office, but not tell anyone in IT? Just looking for ideas that others might have come up with, or if there is some Meraki feature I haven't thought of yet....

You are right...I talked to a Meraki rep a while ago, and using a Syslog setup is the only way to see hits on a deny rule.

I hope this year to finally get that CCNA I've kept putting off. Then hopefully quickly follow up with the Meraki certification... I'm also hoping to take my Python API scripting up to another level....daily backups of settings/configs across all networks in multiple orgs, checking for standard configs on networks across an org, single script to setup new networks and devices....

Meraki Support told me the same thing...impossible to do that kind of routing with a simple Hub-Spoke setup. Yeah, I have a few solutions brewing. The remote MX in the offsite network (if they would even allow that), setup a limited number of Spoke networks as Peers to the same IPSec tunnel, or setup the tunnel on another router or MX on the same LAN subnet as the Hub MX and use static routes to advertise it.
