Just had a look a these costs again SCEPMan is actually far cheaper coming in at 743 EUR per month for 2000 users compared to Microsoft $3280.00 per month. Unless i'm missing something, It makes no sense to pay Microsoft 20K more for this volume of users 🙄. It may make sense if you have a smaller volume but not for us.

I was just looking at this and its damn expensive 2000 devices/users somewhere in the region of £34000 per annum as a standalone Addon. You would think MS would include this in enterprise licences.

Hi .. This has been back to normal for a while. I cant recall what Firmware resolved it though. Currently on MR 29.6.1

Seen this before and its always been cabling not being terminated correctly. We used to terminate cat6a with Rj45 plugs and as you suggested plugged into directly into an AP. There just isn't enough room. Now we always ask for all terminations to AP's be in patch boxes where a patch cable can be run to an AP. We have had 2 sites re-wired because the contractor said its better to terminate with RJ45 plugs. I think not.

Same here, turned a couple of days ago no adverse effects either. Just 1 jammed AP mitigated. Hopefully we will see more detail on the page in the future

Has anyone had this dilemma when thinking of POE? 24 X MR access points 10 X IP cameras 2 X MS355-48X (Stacked) Total power - 1480W Working with with POE budget power If there is switch failure and we have move the devices on to a working switch which can budget 740W. for 34 devices @ 30W this would push a single switch over budget. Or ... 2 X MS355-24X2 (Stacked) 740W POE exclusively for access points 24 MR @ 30W = 720W would keep a switch failure within budget. + 2 X MS225-24P Stacking and uplinked to MS355 for cameras etc 10 X cameras @30W = 300W would keep a single switch failure within budget too. Although option 2 is slightly more expensive. I am sure the MS switches does not block power if actual usage is less then budgeted power however we have seen devices that don't like it if a switch is over budget. Any thoughts ? Thanks

We are are not seeing crazy lead times either with Meraki it varies anything between 3 days to 8 weeks depending on what we need and where we need it (MS and MR). Smaller MX especially MX 75 are hard to get hold off. Aruba are in a really bad place though up to 1+ year for some kit.

Yes you can ... We have networks in UK,EU,US and APAC under one dashboard. From what i know the AP's will already know which regulatory domain they should be in based on the shipping address when you buy them. If you need to change them then do as previous replies. The only place you cant use the global meraki.com dashboard is China! where you have to setup under meraki.cn dashboard.

We have pretty much the same setup as @AdBurl. Recently added CW9166 to our fleet with MS355 Mgig switches. We thought .. why not might as well get the mgig switches too. All new locations will go this way too. If you have the budget you might as well.

Both options are great MS425 or Fortigate depending on as others say your traffic needs. We have no on prem servers or the need for client to client traffic, everything is cloud. Hence we let the Fortigate do all L3 services.

We have done something very similar except our gateways for vlans are on the fortigate, DHCP/DNS provided by fortigate 2 X 10Gb Aggr port with trunked vlans from MS425 to Fortigate. We find better visibilty and ease of management by letting the fortigate handle services.

Hi Just a curious one and trying to get my head around it The dashboard measures client signal strength with dB where a higher value is better i think But dbm a lower value is better My understanding is dbm - Signal Strength and dB Signal to noise ratio (SNR) The dashboard displays signal strength but in dB Is there any logic behind this as to why its not in dbm?

We have a very similar or exact issue on MR56's 28.6.1. AP's all slowed down no client could get more than 10mbps speed pings were >100 ms. On a normal day we get 200mbps throughput and pings <8ms. Full reboot of the site AP's resolved it. The known issues on 29 firmware don't look promising either AP performance may degrade over time (Wi-Fi 6 APs)

I heard that google didn't like devices pinging 8.8.8.8 constantly and they start rate limiting the IP, not sure how true it is. Don't understand why Meraki don't ping the parent Cisco open DNS servers ??

Hi, Since dropping our DHCP lease time time to 4 hours for the AP's i have not seen any disconnects for over 2 weeks. (Someone mentioned DHCP renewal earlier so i thought id try this) Some asked whether the clients can still work through a disconnected AP, mine do i only had 1 AP that didn't but that could have been something else.

FWIW Interesting investigation I dropped our DHCP lease time on some sites to 4 hours, Not seen these sites go offline in the dashboard for over a week now, while other sites that are still on 3 days + do go offline randomly.

Hmm strange ours were offline for 8 hours, they also showed config not up date. different question then do MR's stop accepting clients if they cant contact the dashboard for a set time and be deemed a dead ap or does the last known config apply and the MR carries on serving clients?

Has anyone noticed if when the MR's stay offline from the dashboard for an extended period that they stop allowing clients to connect ? Had one this morning and had to bounce the port on it
