I'm not sure of a way to obtain the shared VIP used by two MX's in HA. Looking at the API docs I don't see any calls where you could obtain this information (help>api docs). I'd advise making a "wish" within dashboard for this feature. ... View more

Hello @Silas1066, Welcome to the Community!   Please find answers to your questions below;   1. Does that model have only one Ethernet interface for both management and wireless client connectivity to the network? Correct, one Ethernet Up-link which will be used for both management and wireless connectivity. You can use separate VLAN's if wanting to keep Management separate from user traffic.   2. If it is only one interface, does it need to be changed to an 802.1q trunk after I get the unit up and running? If I do that, will I lose management connectivity to the AP? (especially if I do this via dashboard/the cloud)   The port on the AP does not need to be changed to 802.1q, it acts as a trunking port natively. As long as the switch port which the AP is connected to is placed into 802.1q mode, multiple VLAN's will be able to parse over the link. By default when the AP is connected to a switch port it will send out a DHCP request to get it an IP to communicate with the cloud. Depending on the native VLAN/VLAN tag on the port it is connected to will depend on the IP it receives. If you want to set a static IP on the AP before having cloud communication, follow this guide - https://documentation.meraki.com/MR/Monitoring_and_Reporting/Static_IP_Assignment_on_a_Cisco_Meraki_Access_Point.   3. If I set up wireless networks that use bridged-mode, does it require a 802.1q trunk connection to the AP?   Yes, If you're going to set up a bridged-mode SSID you'll need to configure an 802.1q trunk port to the AP, allowing the bridge-mode VLAN over the trunk port.    Have a read of this article which provides more information about bridge mode SSID's  - https://documentation.meraki.com/MR/Client_Addressing_and_Bridging/SSID_Modes_for_Client_IP_Assignment   Happy to answer more questions if required.         ...

Yeah, Meraki support will not be able to help you in any way unless you have admin access to the org which the AP is claimed. If you have access to the old Employees email, do a password reset and then login with these credentials and un-claim the AP. ... View more

Hey @Aondio_Carlo, I'm not too sure I understand your problem, however, I assume it's that you're trying to access the local status pages of your Meraki appliances by VPN into your network?   Are you able to ping the management IP of your Meraki devices when connecting from the VPN?   Have a read of this document too which outlines the configuration steps required to enable remote Local status page access and some common troubleshooting steps; https://documentation.meraki.com/zGeneral_Administration/Tools_and_Troubleshooting/Using_the_Cisco_Meraki_Device_Local_Status_Page. ...

I'm sorry to be blunt however it very much sounds like the Wireless environment is at fault here, especially if screen sharing works seamless via a wired connection. If Meraki support has advised you to make some changes to your RF/Channel settings and the problem still is arising, my only recommendation would to be to perform a active Wireless Site Survey for your environment. This document outlines the steps in great detail - https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/wireless/5500-series-wireless-controllers/116057-site-survey-guidelines-wlan-00.html.       ...

Have you ensured that location services have been enabled on the devices/allowed Meraki SM app to have access to the Location services for the IOS devices? - Have a read of this article https://documentation.meraki.com/SM/Monitoring_and_Reporting/Managing_Systems_Manager_Location_Services_for_iOS   I've had issues with the OSX clients in the past, this has because a host-based antivirus/firewall was stopping cloud communications with the device,  If you have a host-based firewall/antivirus ensure that you set a policy to allow connectivity to the required IP's (help>Firewall info). ...

A 503 error normally indicates that the problem is with the HTTP server itself, common causes of this are,  Server hosting Web Service is overloaded  Server hosting Web Service is down for maintenance, etc.   Do you currently own/have Root access to the server?

Config Sync and Templates is the native way of replicating configuration from networks which need to be re-used and re-purposed else where.   If you're wanting to back-up the configuration to a local file you can do this via scripting and the API. @PhilipDAth has created a script for this purpose.

Hello Enrico, unfortunately, to my knowledge, there is no way to get around this. Meraki's policy is that the License life-time starts ticking as soon as the license is generated and emailed out to the partner/customer. This is the case as the license and order number provided allows the partner/customer to claim the devices and licenses and start to design and configure the device as needed. Meraki has no control over the delivery of the hardware, therefore, cannot take this into consideration with licensing. ... View more
