Hi @John-K , This is wonderful! Are we looking to have this endpoint available in the Meraki V1 SDK any time soon? I've looked through the changelog and searched available endpoints but was not able to locate it. Would be great to know if its in the works for the SDK as this is something I could definitely use at my organization! Thanks, Craig.  ... View more

Hello all, I am trying to retreive the following information from MR42E devices within my network. I have around 1000 networks and I need to fetch the Antenna Type information for the same.  The following information is what I would like to extract: 2.4/5Ghz  Combined Antenna  Would appreciate if anyone could send through an idea of which API call to use for this, checked under the Wireless section but was unable to locate anything in particular to get that information . Thanks, Craig. ... View more

Hey @Bruce  Thanks for the suggestion, changing it to :https://api.meraki.cn/ actually worked in postman!  For the second part of this, how do I get this working with the Python SDK, as that still throws me the 404 error? Would I have to use the Python Requests module in this case or are you aware of a workaround using the Python SDK? ... View more

Hi @Bruce and @PhilipDAth ,   API access is enabled from the Organization Settings.   I've also tried regenerating a new API key in Dashboard 2.   Both don't work, one throws 404 and the other 401!    Looking at the error codes it's due to invalid api key, but it's exactly the same as what is provided during creation.   Anything else you'd recommend to check? Bit of an odd one as I've been using the API for Dashboard one since a few months now. ... View more

Hello all, I work for an MSP and we currently have 2 dashboards for our clients : Dashboard 1 ( 50 + Orgs ) , Dashboard 2 ( 2 clients ). I have created the API keys for both clients atleast a week ago   For dashboard one, I was able to create and successfully use the API key without any issue. However with dashboard 2 , I have created the API key but I receive 404 error on using via Postman and even via the Python SDK. I have added the API key in postman as well as the Python dashboard call.   Would anyone have any suggestions as to what is going wrong here? Thanks, Craig. ... View more

Re: L3 Firewall Update API automatically converting IP to CIDR

Hello @bmehta , @PhilipDAth, @Bruce  Thank you for all your responses and suggestions. Yes, there is no issue with the subnet being added. I was actually wondering if there was a change in the API, as when I used it last month, it took the IP address as is without conversion ( hence the query here ) .  However, I agree with all your suggestions of it not affecting anything if the subnet being added. @bmehta  I will report this issue as it does not take only IP and always converts to subnet. Thanks everyone. Cheers, Craig. ... View more

Hello all, I am trying to update the L3 Firewall rules of a particular network via API for testing purposes, however whenever I enter the IP address I want in the Source and Destination it gets automatically converted to IP/subnet. I have tested it with both v0 and v1 using Postman. Attaching the screenshot reference and the JSON data being passed to the API below. Do I need to switch the key from srcCidr to srcAddr and destCidr to destAddr? Any suggestions would be appreciated      "rules" : [     {          "comment" :  "Default rule" ,          "policy" :  "allow" ,          "protocol" :  "Any" ,          "srcPort" :  "Any" ,          "srcCidr" :  "Any" ,          "destPort" :  "Any" ,          "destCidr" :  "Any" ,          "syslogEnabled" :  false     },     {          "comment" :  "Testing rule" ,          "policy" :  "allow" ,          "protocol" :  "Any" ,          "srcPort" :  "Any" ,          "srcCidr" :  "192.168.128.56" ,          "destPort" :  "Any" ,          "destCidr" :  "2.2.2.9" ,          "syslogEnabled" :  false         }   ] } ...

Re: Capture Alert on Dashboard for Meraki Fan Failure on MX Device

Hey @Greenberet , I checked the event logs for a month back from time I noticed the alert in the dashboard, there were no logs present for this. Seems to be that the event log in the Dashboard only captures the software related alerts, don't see any filters or any logs for any Hardware faults in it. ( Do correct me if im wrong) Hope this helps in any way.  To the Meraki devs, please get us an API to view such alerts! 🙂   Thanks, Craig. ... View more

Hello all, I'm looking for an API to capture the following alert of MX250 device. The alert is visible on the Network-> Security & SD-Wan -> Appliance Status page. I have checked the network event logs, but I am not able to locate anything for this and there are no webhooks to trigger an alert for this either! Would anyone happen to know how we can capture this alert? Thanks, Craig.     ... View more

Re: API to disable SSID broadcasting on an MX 65W device.

by Craiegg in Developers & APIs
‎12-08-2020 03:57 PM
‎12-08-2020 03:57 PM
Hi @John-K , Thank you for your suggestion. I have tried v0 endpoint and it works perfectly. However there is an issue. I have a network with both an MX-68W and an AP. If I use any of the v0 or v1 endpoints to Get SSIDs or Update SSID's , it only returns me the SSID's from the AP and enables/disables the SSID from the AP. It still continues to broadcast from the MX-W. If i remove the AP out of the network and keep only the MX-68W, then the v0 endpoints for Fetching and Updating the SSID's on the MX-W works perfectly fine. My end objective is the following: "Network with MX-W and AP (both broadcasting the same SSIDs) - Fetch SSIDs - Disable SSID 1/2/3  - It should disable SSID broadcasting on both the MX-W and the AP. " But currently it only disables from the AP. I have raised a feature request, however if there are any suggestions for an alternative endpoint please do let me know and I'll be glad to test them out. Looking forward to your response. Thanks, Craig. ... View more

Hey @JoshMikow , To change the password of an SSID in the Template. You need to first grab the configTemplate ID using (https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/#!get-organization-config-templates) Once you have the template for which you want the SSID password to be changed, fetch the "SSID number" ( https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/#!get-network-wireless-ssids  )  Use the "SSID number" along with the necessary password parameters and pass them in a PUT request to update it as you need. This would update it for all the networks bound to that particular tempalte (  https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/#!update-network-wireless-ssid ) Hope this helps you 🙂   Cheers Craig ...

Disable SSID broadcasting on a Z3/Z1 Appliance.

Hello all, I am working on a solution that provides our clients an option to enable/disable SSIDs for their networks on request through a portal. It works perfectly fine for networks that have a Wireless Access Point. However, for the networks that have the SSID broadcasting through the Z1/Z3 device, there is no API call to do it for the same. I get the following error if I try to do it via the Wireless SSID API call: " Network bound to a template is not a Wireless Network" A workaround that is possible, is having to disable the SSID for the entire template which is not feasible as my template is tied to 10+ networks.  Is there any method or way to disable an SSID from broadcasting on a particular Z1/Z3 appliance?

@CptnCrnch that indeed did help and i appreciate you referencing the link too. However, what I am not understanding is the section Elector State - Master / Elector state - Backup As per my reading of the link and understanding - 255 for Primary is Master and anything below that is Backup As per my logs at  Sep 29 15:26:05 MX001 - transitioned into Master as Prio is 255 and then at Sep 29 15:31:01 MX001 transitioned into Backup as Prio is 75.

Hello all, i've been working on a few Meraki devices and I've seen some failover events come through. I would like to understand the logs better. Security appliance Client Event type Details Time   (UTC)     Sep 29 15:31:01 MX001   VRRP transition if_up: 0, old_if_up: 1, mode: detect   old_mode detect prio 75 old_prio 255 elector_state backup Sep 29 15:26:05 MX001   VRRP transition if_up: 1, old_if_up: 0, mode: detect  old_mode detect prio 255 old_prio 75 elector_state master My Objective: Identify when the primary failed and switched to being a Backup. Could someone help me understand the status codes in the Details section. I have read through the Routed HA Failover Behavior. But I do not understand the Elector state .  Is it saying Elector State- Master = Device is currently Master and Elector State - Backup = Device lost connectivity and is now Backup ( Spare becomes Master)? Could someone please clarify the same for me. Would highly appreciate it!  Thanks, Craig. ... View more
