I think Cisco is too slow and can't compete with all vendors. Alternative vendors definitely need to be considered. It has been the same thing around WiFi 6/6e. Yes Ubiquiti UniFi and Cisco Meraki are producing a lot of products, both began with some solar powered PoE appliances and of course WiFi, Cams etc. Still both companies are producing interesting things, air quality sensors, EV chargers etc. Funny to see. In case you want to learn, evolve some technologies it's always bad to consider only one vendor. Mikrotik is another great manufacturer for some protocols, Cisco offered in the past. (LoRa) They also got a bunch of industrial equipment and high speed switching utilities. So it.will definitely be stunning to see what's coming next in the industry.

So I ordered them and did a first test run. Pretty neat: Will re-check it with the updated WiFi card and once the Samsung S24 is available. Sorry for the german text, thats approximately 500Mbit more compared to the values on the previously used MR56, maybe the CW916x/MR57 would perform better, but I will skip those for now. That, and also the bad experience with the availability and our account manager is some thing that should be considered, at first I will test WiFi 7 in my lab, but yeah, Meraki isn't always an option. Luckily the mounting Holes had been there since the first UAP Pro and then utilized by MR33,36,up to MR56

Could be, I would like to see what the next Gen Smartphones and Mobile computers are going to "demand". The lack of affordable mGig switching is still a pain sometimes. Have seen couple of deployment that used the SFP Cages+10GBe+PoE Injectors.. That's not how it should be implemented 🤣

Hey there, are there plans to leverage WiFi 7 for Meraki? (Affordable mGig switching+APs?) I mean, most sites still use WiFi 5/6 (some might be lucky and went for 6E) Today there was an announcement at UI: ui.social/u7pro Thrilled to see more! Yes, that's the Meraki forum, but I will definitely test it.

Definitely! Maybe there are some thoughts on how to avoid those device usages in future. (Compared to other vendors, which do offer a NFR program, but the do this intentionally, as you won't get support there aswell (VMWare, Mikrotik etc.))

I don't think that those should be sold on ebay.. like the NFR/EA hardware. https://www.ebay.com/itm/176002185263 Seller wrote me: Yeah I got that on conference

I filed it on Bugcrowd including a screen recording and random serial numbers I found in online databases. Think that's not too important for Meraki nowadays. But it will be at a certain point. I prooved that I was able to claim a whole, foreign order by only looking up a single serial number. Those could be obtained by monitoring marketplaces, inventory databases/public listings etc. Think that I will upload the video/instructions again outside Bugcrowd.

No it's referring to individual devices which were unclaimed during device moving or are not yet claimed. I mean it's enough to have the serial number to gather dozen of serial numbers. I have submitted it at Bugcrowd.

Hey there, I know that this might only apply for used devices, which are, in terms of the Meraki-ecosystem not existant, but I wanted to share my thoughts on the claim/unclaim inventory status page. It also applies to serial numbers that were accessible to the public etc. So I wanted to add a couple of devices, which were in another dashboard, I will get the overview on whats going to be added, but i do also see the order number, before my claim was even confirmed. So as a possible attacker i would try to figure out the serial number in order to gain access to details such as the Meraki-Order-Nr. Given the fact that i have access to the order number i, as an imaginary "theft" could claim unused devices from that order. I dont got a solution for that, but something like a helpdesk for the claim/unclaim procedure and a better interface would be great. In my opinion this is a possible data breach, but thats something thats visible to all engineers. I would also add a "reclaim" function in case devices have been "annexed" using this method. Description: I add a serial number from another dashboard, i confirm the license/network settings -> https://n12345.meraki.com/o/Organization-ID/manage/organization/license/claim_orders/assign_networks/select_networks In the next screen i can see details, that should be protected (in my opinion, because using the order number Licenses, Devices that are unused could be "annexed") As said, this also applies to devices that were operated by another dashboard: Sorry, but some messages are in German 🇩🇪 btw. Meraki Staff, in case you think this is inappropriate for the forum, please move/restrict it and contact me via DM, normally companies like Cisco should have a bug bounty programm 😋 TL;DR: I think some measurements in the claim process are good, like the time interval (~some claims per five minutes or so), but others are too weak or too strong..

I agree, you definitely need to enroll it in Apple Business or Apple School Manager. It will store and sync some attributes, such as the activation state, serial numbers, some metadata (device gen/iOS etc.) and it will be re-enrolled upon reset. We utilize ABM in addition to our MDM, which is Intune. But that's actually just the tool. The DEP is ABM/ASM

Hey @Inderdeep Firstly: I work for a partner and the profile is set up correctly. So regarding CMNA variants: That's true for me as well. I also contacted our sales rep a couple of times and had been in contact with the community assistant/s here. Unfortunately as some more time passed, the certification was finally reduced or the kit was finally cancelled. I wanted to gain not really the hardware, but knowledge by setting it in a demo env. As I already got a couple of switches, MRs but still do not exceed the 12 Device Policy I should be eligible for the license that comes with the CMNA/for eligible partners. But still it was not possible. So currently I got two ,old‘ MX100 which I would love to use for test purposes. Think that running them w/o a valid license is too dangerous, even in a lab scenario. I wanted to replace a lab equipment of another vendor bit think I have to utilize Ubiquiti or Mikrotik again, they have a slightly different policy. I mean Ubiquiti is still instable and more for home usages, but often they had features in place other vendors brought quite late. Like the WiFi 6E etc. For Mikrotik Routerboards there are at least licenses available with reduced functionalities and a community-only support (AFAIK). Some do also reflash old Meraki Devices with OpenWRT 🤓 Think that's something in terms of user engagement and enablement Cisco/Meraki should consider. Of course its not meant to be installed in residential spaces, but there might be some things that could be checked regularly: proper certifications/work email and a valid dashboard/device count etc. Those are just my ideas for the CMNA curriculum 🤣😀

I can barely read it, does it say offline on that port? MX and the switch are connected directly? Try to run a cable test on the switch if possible or just checking the cable physically. I know thats some effort but for troubleshooting purposes it might also be required to have an engineer on site. Sometime there were also untold changes during maintenance times, which do produce some additional issues. For instance changing certain physical connection/s during switch/config updates.

I would try to check the template, but also the device logs. You could do this by either having physical access to the device/s or with a remote connection. Talking about SMTP, in case you got access to the server you could check the logs here as well.

Thanks, I already heard about the direct power supply, or at least saw it in the docs for other Sensors like the MT10 as well 🙂 (There is a MQTT integration for USB power etc.)

Hmm. Is there some client privacy feature activated? In case the Mac address does not persist, I would try to change it. Or at least reconfigure the WiFi network on the device/s.

I would reduce the amount of Tunnels to a minimum, in order to comply with HW regulations.

I like the idea but is it really doing precise measurements in indoor areas? I mean, the main PM2.5 in an office is produced in there, like the toner cartridges etc. So in case it's mounted outdoor I would trust those numbers. I it somehow precise? I mean when thinking about a crisis it should be a precise warning.
