Pre-Install Preparation
You should complete the following steps before going on-site to perform an installation.
3.1 Configure Your Network in Dashboard
The following is a brief overview only of the steps required to add an MR36-HW to your network. For
detailed instructions about creating, configuring and managing Meraki wireless networks, refer to the
Meraki Cloud Controller Manual (
meraki.com/library/product ).
1.
Login to http://dashboard.meraki.com. If this is your first time, create a new account.
2.
Find the network to which you plan to add your APs or create a new network.
3.
Add your APs to your network. You will need your Meraki order number (found on your
invoice if you ordered directly from Meraki) or the serial number of each AP, which looks like
Qxxx-xxxx-xxxx, and is
found on the bottom of the unit. You will also need your Enterprise Cloud Controller license key,
which you should have received via email from shipping@meraki.com.
4.
Go to the map / floor plan view and place each AP on the map by clicking and dragging it to
the location where you plan to mount it.
3.2 Check and Upgrade Firmware
To ensure your MR36-HW performs optimally immediately following installation, Meraki recommends
that you facilitate a firmware upgrade prior to mounting your MR36-HW.
1.
Attach your MR36-HW to power and a wired Internet connection. See p. 19 of this
Hardware Installation Guide for details.
2.
The MR36-HW will turn on and the Power LED will glow solid orange. If the unit does not
require a firmware upgrade, the Power LED will turn white within thirty seconds.
* If the unit requires an upgrade, the Power LED will begin blinking orange 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.
3.3 Check and Configure Firewall Settings
If a firewall is in place, it must allow outgoing connections on particular ports to particular IP
addresses. The most current list of outbound ports and IP addresses can be found here:
