Meraki

Dunky

Many thanks. I will have a 'play' with this on my test network over the Xmas hols, no doubt I will be bored and looking for something to occupy myself! 🙂

I'm hoping posting here is going to get me a quicker answer than me trying to find sites to test and configure this. I am working on putting together a plan to migrate a new site to Meraki infrastructure and have a requirement to permit traffic outbound from a specific vlan to to say *.abc.com on tcp ports 8080-8180. Can I add a L3 rule with the dst as *.abc.com ? I know about using a group policy and adding "Allow list URL patterns" but I believe that would only apply to http/https traffic? Or am I mistaken and that is indeed the way to do it by adding say abc.com:8080-8810 ?? Any help/guidance would be greatly appreciate as I'm under a quite restrictive timeline on this one.

Thanks for the reply @Mloraditch The annoying thing is all the MV documentation and dashboad displays say the cameras use LLDP - it appears that the camera ports also receiving CDP packets screws this.

I believe the correct dst FQDN for Cloud Archive is dependant on region which is why the 'Firewall Info" page says ANY. In reality there is an FQDN for each region, e.g. cloud-archive-upload.euc.vision.meraki.com cloud-archive-upload.apa.vision.meraki.com

I have a number of cameras at a site that are connected to non-Cisco/Meraki switches that are managed by a 3rd party. The LLDP info that is being displayed on some of the cameras is the name of another camera appended with /Port 0. A wireshark pcap showed the camera ports receiving CDP data from other MV cameras on the site so we can only assume this is the cause of the issue as the 3rd party switches don't understand CDP and are hence flooding the CDP packets out of every port. The cameras receive this and report that as the LLDP info. Has anyone else come across a similar issue, and more importantly, if so, how did you resolve it? TIA

Is anyone able to confirm that the dome in the MA-MNT-MV-63 fits an MV72X ??

As if my magic today the "View new version" re-appeared. I have therefore clicked it and suffice to say I wont be reverting back to the old again 🙂 Have asked support to close the ticket.

Dashboard

Yes, that's the date of the last update I have from the assigned engineer. I guess its a waiting game 🙂

Dunky · ‎Nov 5 2024

Is MA-MNT-MV-63 also suitable for MV72X? just want to check before ordering.

Dunky · ‎Nov 5 2024

Yeah I know, I wish Meraki would put as much effort into fixing know issues as they do into new features!

Hi @JosRus I've reverted to the older theme perfectly ok. This issue is I no longer have the option to go to the new one! Support have said (back in Sept) "I've contacted our product specialist team and I'll provide un update as soon as I have any response from them." I'm still waiting 😞

If you use the Vision Portal and put it into Fullscreen mode that bypasses the global timeout setting.

The issue I have with the new layout is if you edit a port that is a member of an LACP group it doesn't tell you what ports are in the AGGR/n nor the aggregate speed (which you can see on the old version)

Just wanted to thank @Ryan_Miles for all your help and here are the MR76's 'in the wild' so to speak with the sector antenna fitted.... We are getting 190-200Mbps across the link

Hi @FeliA Thanks for the reply. It was due to clients using internal DNS servers, I'm in the process of correcting as per the documentation here https://documentation.meraki.com/MV/Physical_Installation/MV63_Installation_Guide#DNS_Configuration_Best_practices_for_LAN_Streaming

Dunky · ‎Sep 27 2024

I noticed this problem earlier today and have been doing some troubleshooting. The symbol in the bottom left of streams indicates streaming via the cloud even when on the same LAN: I have put my laptop on the same subnet as the camera and still see the Cloud symbol. I've done a packet trace on the switchport the camera is on with a filter expression of "host n.n.n.n", with n.n.n.n being my laptop address and no data is captured, so its deffo going via the cloud. If I look in the Video Access menu that also says I viewed via cloud access. Looks like something has gone wrong here as its at every site.

Had a good run then 🙂

@JessIT1 What utilization was the old MX running at compared to the new one?

Dunky · ‎Sep 19 2024

MX84 End-of-Support is Oct 31, 2026

Dunky · ‎Sep 19 2024

I've got the issue on an MX84 which cannot be upgraded (its on 18.107.11), although its running at 33%+ utilization which may be the issue rather than the firmware version

Dunky · ‎Sep 19 2024

Haha, given that some of my cameras cover car parks that's an issue. I will keep an eye open to see if I can disprove that theory when it next rains. If you click on the "Show Objects" when going to the footage from a motion alert email it does highlight the odd car as an object in motion when it most definitely isn't!

Dunky · ‎Sep 19 2024

Given that a few months have passed since you posted @cmr , are you able to confirm that you are no longer getting hundreds of emails when its raining or when the spiders/insects are active. If so would you mind sharing the settings please? I have areas of interest defined, minimum event duration 5s, sensitivity 50%, alert only on people detection enabled. Put it this way - I don't need a weather forecast to tell me when its raining at these sites as my phone is constantly pinging with emails!

Dunky · ‎Sep 19 2024

Have logged a call with Support. Will update this thread when resolved.

Dunky · ‎Sep 18 2024

Can you not Deny at Layer 7 as below: And add L3 Deny rules for teamviewer.com etc provided the MX has seen the DNS lookup, or if using internal DNS setup a teamviewer.com domain and resolve to 127.0.0.1 ??
