I am wondering how the dynamic DNS on the MX works if you are using the MG21. Will DDNS use the public IP address on the MG or will it use the IP address assigned to it by the MG. We want to be able to do the following. We have enabled DDNS on the MX. I want to use a cname on GoDaddy to point our DNS to the DDNS address. This will update the DNS automatically and keep our websites available. It may be slow but they will work.

I emailed the person who emailed my but I don't think I tried that one. I will do so. Thanks

I did. I can not even get a response from them. Makes me wonder if that is the way they treat their customers.

I attended a number of Meraki webinars. A number of them indicate that if you attend you can get a free switch, or firewall or access point. After attending the webinars I answered the email request to verify my address. I have even tried contacting someone there (not easy). In the end I never did receive anything.

OK. So the answer is no, that there is not a way to have multiple subnets. I have looked at group policy and it is not going to work in our case for a number of reasons. Thanks for the replies

Yep. And sometimes I need to create a temporary rule for some project that we have. It is just easier sometimes to be able to click disable. Same with NAT. I have done it with those as well at times. Put in a Wish for it. Maybe if they get enough they will add it. It should be fairly simple to do.

The only way I can figure how to do it, is to assign them static IPs to use and then I can filter by them. Not the best option but this is for a client not general public.

I have been looking but I don't see an option for this. Is there a way to temporarily disable a firewall or NAT rule. We have to do that occasionally and right now the only option I see is to delete the rule. Thanks, Gordon

Is it possible to have multiple subnets for client VPNs? I have a need for different access and permissions for different groups that VPN in. One is for a client and one is for our own employees. I want to be able to limit the client to be able to access one server only but I don't see how to do that with the MX. Thanks, Gordon

Thanks for the quick reply I read this before but I missed some of it. Just so I know how the underlying system works. WAN - I can assign a VIP to it to be used as the default gateway which will follow the active firewall LANs - Since the LANs do not get assigned a VIP, do they both get the same IP (active and passive) so that the default gateway on the LAN does not change.

I am trying to understand how these firewalls work with HA. Part of the issue is how my current firewalls work. On my current firewalls I have the following WAN Firewall-1 11.11.11.02 Firewall-2 11.11.11.03 Firewall VIP 11.11.11.01 LAN Firewall-1 22.22.22.02 Firewall-2 22.22.22.03 Firewall VIP 22.22.22.01 So the VIP gets assigned to the active firewall so that the default gateway does not change. How does this work with Meraki? I don't see where I can enter VIPs for the LANs

Thanks but not what I am looking for. I want to be able to only allow certain people to access www.website.com/login A blacklist blocks everyone.

I have been playing in the devnet sandbox in anticipation of getting our new firewalls next week. One of the things I would like to do is block access to a website using the following pattern www.website.com/login so that only certain users can access that particular page. When I try entering this in any of the different types of rules I get an invalid destination address. Does anyone know if I can do this? Thanks

I was hoping to use the template to pre-program my firewalls as we haven't received them yet. After reading the document recommended by ww I realize that is not the best approach.

Thanks for the response. Reading this about templates, I realize I probably don't want to use them.

I am new to Meraki firewalls. I am in the process of configuring a template for our MX84 that is on order. What I am trying to figure out and I have read the online documentation is setting up a VLAN with a unique subnet. I see how to do that under Addressing and VLANs. What I am trying to determine is, what is the purpose of this. I currently use pfSense for my firewalls and I didn't have to do anything like that. I used IPSEC and pointed to the subnets at each end that I wanted to be able to converse. Thanks

We are looking at ordering a pair of MX84s in the near future. I have been reading the documentation online and I really don't see much information on the ports. What I would like to know is the unit shows 10 -rj45 ports and two SFP+ ports. Are all ports usable or when using the SFP ports does it disable any of the other ports. Thanks
