For the MAC-based access control, that @KarstenI referenced, note the point below, in his screenshot: you need a RADIUS server, which holds the database of MAC addresses and which the access points query, when the clients associate to that SSID. You can't do such MAC auth just using the Dashboard. It is possible to whitelist clients in the Dashboard, but this is rather different than (just) authenticating them. Have a very careful read of all of this and any relevant linked documents if you want to go further down that path: https://documentation.meraki.com/General_Administration/Cross-Platform_Content/Blocking_and_Allowing_Clients

To summarize the most important steps: Port UDP 1812/1813 (that you have configured on the SSID) have to be allowed all the way to the RADIUS server The shared secret has to match on the AP and the RADIUS server After that, you should have at least a log entry in your server when users connect. For me, the test function in the SSID config was never reliable. Try to connect a client and look at the server logs.
