I’m trying to do a bulk rename of APs in Postman. I have Postman set up with the following variables   And they work, so if I do any of the following, I get the expected output GET {{baseUrl}}/organizations GET {{baseUrl}}/organizations/:organizationId/networks GET {{baseUrl}}/organizations/:organizationId/devices GET {{baseUrl}}/networks/:networkId/devices GET {{baseUrl}}/networks/:networkId/wireless/ssids/ So now I want to use runner, so I created a CSV file called “name-change-data” with a header line and a single line relating to a single AP I want to test on   The serial number is the number seen in the Meraki Dashboard, so I know that is right, and the name is just a different string to what is there at the moment. I then create a collection called “Bulk Rename APs” that looks like this:   {{baseUrl}}/networks/{{networkId}}/devices/{{serial}}   the format of which was as specified in https://community.meraki.com/t5/Wireless/Rename-AP-with-postman-runner/m-p/21137#M3507 Next, I set up the body section as follows:   { "name": "{{name}}", "serial": "{{serial}}" }   I then go to file>New Runner Tab, and get a window that asks me to “Drag a collection from the sidebar to run”, so I drag “Bulk Rename APs” in. It goes in with a lot of others, so I deselect all of them and reselect “Bulk Rename APs”   On the right of the page, I click “Select File” and select “name-change-data.csv” and then click the “run” button. I get the following result:     And the console shows   What am I doing wrong, and why is github flagged? GET https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dexterlabora/json-magic/master/postman/postman-viz-jsonmagic-template.html     All advice gratefully recieved!   Thanks Roo   ... View more

We have a wireless network, created from Meraki CW9164i APs (Current version: MR 30.6). It advertises three SSIDs: Corporate, Guest and IoT on 2.4 and 5GHz. We do not (yet) run 6GHz, though that is our intent in the near future.   In one area of the network, we want to be able to Miracast from a Corporate PC (Main network connection is RADIUS Authenticated by NPS) to a Samsung WM75B Wi-Di screen. The users first press "Windows-k", select the name of the screen and, when the screen connects, we have the choice of "duplicate", "extend" etc. for what we see on the Wi-Di screen.   This works fine for the first time of connection, but if the screen is disconnected and a reconnection attempt is made, the connection fails with no particular message, it just doesn't work. The screen name is shown in the Windows-k selection box, but selecting it does not result in connection or any response. It looks like the control plane is working (can see the name) but the data plane is failing.   We have found a workaround, which is to reboot (power-cycle) the Samsung WM75B screen, after which connection is once again possible, but this is highly suboptimal.   Investigation has shown that if the screen and PC are out of wireless range of the Meraki network, the connection/reconnection works as expected. Searching through this community revealed instances where Rogue suppression by Air Marshall were identified as a possible cause, so a whitelist was configured:   That did not change the behaviour.   The fact that the PC/Screen pair work flawlessly when remote from Meraki APs suggests strongly it is a Meraki issue, but I have been unable to resolve it with whitelist and don't see anything else in Air Marshall or elsewhere that may influence this.   Has anyone seen this kind of behaviour, or even better, resolved it?   Thanks Roo ...

I guess I know the answer to the question I'm going to ask, but I'll ask it anyway, because there is a lot of experience out there and someone may have managed to do what I want to do:   I have an existing Dell switch network. Tht is non-negotiable, it's not old enough to just right off and replace. It has L3-capable Core and Data centre switches, but the access switches are all N2048, which don't do vrf, don't do GRE, don't do any L3.   I want to run SSIDs for Guest and card payment, so in any other environment, using Meraki APs I would have put those SSIDs into VLANs that were in vrfs and thus secure from the other traffic/users....but I can't build vrfs. I could, at a push, use GRE tunnels, but the access switches don't support GRE, either.   I can't mix traffic from secure and insecure VLANs in the same L3 environment ("VLANs aren't a security tool") so it appears I can't use Meraki, but will have to use a controller-based solution, so the APs will pass all SSIDs to a WLC via CAPWAP (Cisco, etc)  or IPSec (Aruba, etc) tunnels, then break them out in the core, where the switches DO handle vrfs and I can get them across to the firewall safely.   So here's the question: is there another way? I want to use Meraki, the user wants to use Meraki, but the Ethernet network appears to be a blocker unless I can work some magic....   Thanks Roo ... View more

I have a bunch of sites that I have configured manually, which is OK up to about 100 APs then the time and effort to configure each AP gets a bit excessive. I now have to build a site with 350 APs and I don't want to use my time doing that many APs manually. Is there a way to use a CSV file or similar,to input things like AP name, address, tags, etc, etc. Thanks Roo ... View more

I just put together a network with MS225 switches, to a MS425 core stack. I'm deploying MR57 APs and seeing a number of good APs in the Topology, but also a number of blue diamonds The diamonds, when hovered over, show they are actually repeats of the APs already there. This must be something to do with the dual ethernet links to the APs, but they are all in default configuration with only some of them doing this. Has anyone come across this before, and if so what is the fix?   Thanks   Roo ... View more
