within 30 seconds.
* If the unit requires an upgrade, the LED will cycle rainbow until the
upgrade is complete, at which point the Power LED will turn solid white.
You should allow about an hour for the firmware upgrade to complete,
depending on the speed of your internet connection.

Check and Configure Firewall Settings
If your network will be located behind a firewall, it must allow outgoing
connections on particular ports to particular IP addresses in order for the
MR74 to be able to seamlessly communicate with the Cloud Controller. The
most current list of outbound ports and IP addresses can be found here:

Assigning IP Addresses to MR74s
All gateway MR74s (MR74s with Ethernet connections to the LAN) must
be assigned routable IP addresses. These IP addresses can be dynamically
assigned via DHCP or statically assigned.
3.4.1
Dynamic Assignment
When using DHCP, the DHCP server should be configured to assign a
static IP address for each MAC address belonging to a Meraki AP. Other
features of the wireless network, such as 802.1X authentication, may rely
on the property that the APs have static IP addresses.
3.4.2
Static Assignment
Static IPs are assigned using the local web server on each AP. The following
procedure describes how to set the static IP:
1.
Using a client machine (e.g., a laptop), connect to the AP either wirelessly
(by associating to any SSID broadcast by the AP) or over a wired
connection.
If using a wired connection, connect the client
machine
to the MR74 either through a PoE switch or a Meraki PoE
Injector. If
using a PoE switch, plug an Ethernet cable into the
MR74’s
Ethernet
jack, and the other end into a PoE switch. Then
connect the client
machine over Ethernet cable to the PoE switch. If
