Originally we had a very small network containing only switches. for some reason a template was created to add Wireless AP's and this was applied to the network. Consequently the switches lost part of their config becuase the template contained no switch settings. So, to remedy this I split the networks into swithed and wireless, then unbound the switched from the template. I was then able to configure the switches correctly. However, for ease of managment, it would be easier if the two networks were combined, one pane of glass as it were? Is there any way I can do this considering that the template only contains wireless settings, or would I need to add the relevant switch settings to the template first? This is impractical as The switch Profiles have no consideration for stacks, so we couldn't use a template for the switches?

So, if I apply a qos rule, fopr a particular Access port, are you saying that the trunk ports for the uplink will automatically honour this, or should these Trunk ports be configure with Trust DSCP? Is that right or not what about the uplinks please?

Say I've marked my access vlans with whatever qos markings. The lacp uplinks they just need "Trust incoming dscp". Yes?

Hello and thank you so say your AP is 192.168.10.2 /24 Then your DHCP server needs to be 192.168.10.X/24 as well? So this vlan also needs trunking up to the core as well then, yes?

Hello all/., We will be using AP's in bridged mode so need to configure a list of DHCP servers for these AP's 1. Where abouts are the dhcp servers configured ? 2. Do the ip addresses of these DHCP servers need to be in the included allowed Vlans of the trunk to the outside?

hello all. In this video he shows you how to configure flexible stacking. He first powers on both switches with with separate uplinks then configures the stacking ports on each switch and adds the stack cables without powering off the switches, unlike regular stacking. At what point can you remove ONE of the uplinks as he never does that in the video? Do you remove the uplink BEFORE you start configuring the stack ports or after? Flexible Stacking

Hello and thanks again. So if the 425's are layer two only, what about the connection between the 425's and the SD-Wan? 1. The SD-WAN is actually TWO boxes, so this is will be two layer 2 trunks from the distribution, yes? 2. The Access switch Gateways is still pointing to the SVI's which now sit on on the sd wan, yes?

Hello and thanks you. I'm now told that the SVI's will sit on an SD-WAN router above the MS425 Stack. The MS425 will be for distribution only and the Lan switches (MS225s) will be below the distribution switch. 1. So, I run Layer two trunks between the lan and the MS425 through the port channels, yes? 2. How do i get from the distribution switch to the SDWAN, something has to point to the VRRP vip doesn't it? 3. Where should the Default gateway for my LAN switches point? To the VRRP address of the SD_WAN router, or the management address of the Distribtion switch? 4.Should the connection between the Distribtion switch and the SVI router be layer three or layer two trunk?

Thanks Inderdeep. So what is the best practice? Native vlan or separate managment network? Or use the Native vlan with the intended /24 network you were going to use as managment? I can give my native vlan whichever number i want, right? It doesn't have to be one does it?

Is the traffic equally load balanced from the lan up to the Ms425s? If I lose one of the Ms425s the failover to the other is automatic yes?

Hello. I've read here that Best practice suggest using a management vlan So lets just say I want to use 10.1.1.0/24 as management for reachability to the cloud (this will be natted) should this 10.1.1.0/24 be configured on my layer 3 gateway as a normal SVI along with my Data & Voice svi's and whatever else?

So you would have TWO port channels on the Core stack with One port from each of the L2 stacks below yes? This would just be one port channel configured on each of the L2 stacks with a single port going to each member of the core stack, yes? So if you lost one of the switches in the core stack, the L2 stacks would automatically failover to the other member of the core stack, yes, is that exactly what you mean?

Hello everyone. I have a Low level design doc that composes of Two layer two switch stacks containing say four switches each. They then go up two MS425s. Looking at the diagram, these also are in a stack, but a stack of two. We will need redundancy for the two layer two switch stacks. Ordinarily we would use some form of VRRP or warm spare in Meraki parlance i believe? However, because the MS425s are stacked, surely this rules out VRRP/Warm Spare? How do I achieve redundancy for my lan going to this MS425 stack, when I am unable to use VRRP/Warm spare?
