Mounting Hardware
The supplied wall screws and anchors allow you to mount the appliance on a drywall surface, either vertically or horizontally. The distance between the holes
you drill should be 5-1/8 inches (13 cm).
•For mounting on drywall, use a ¼-in drill bit, then insert the plastic and screw assemblies.
•For mounting on wood or a similar surface, use only the screws.
•Allow the heads of the screws to stick out far enough to be inserted securely into the back of the appliance.
Connecting to WAN
All Meraki MX devices must have an IP address. This section describes how to configure your local area network before you deploy it. A local management web
service, running on the appliance, is accessed through a browser running on a client PC. This web service is used for configuring and monitoring basic ISP/WAN
connectivity.
Setting up a Static IP Address
Do the following to configure basic connectivity and other networking parameters:
To ensure that the client PC is redirected to the local web service in the following step, you must disable all other network services (ex: wi-fi) on your
client machine.

1.Using a client machine such as a laptop, connect to one of the LAN ports of the MX.
2.Using a browser on the client machine, access the appliance's built-in web service by browsing to
http://setup.meraki.com. (You do not have to be connected to the Internet to reach this address)
3.Click Uplink configuration under the Local status tab.The default credentials use the device serial number as
the username, with a blank password field.
4.Choose Static for the IP Assignment option.
5.Enter the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway IP and DNS server information.
Setting up a DHCP IP Address
By default all MX devices are configured to DHCP from upstream WAN / ISP servers. Simply plug the MX's WAN / Internet port to your upstream circuit and wait
a few minutes for the unit to negotiate a DHCP address.
Setting up Cellular Failover
The MX67C and MX68CW have an embedded LTE module for cellular failover connections. The following section will walk through first-time set-up of an MX
with an internet connection as a primary connection and cellular as failover.
To set up the cellular failover connection, follow the steps below:
1.Power off the MX. Swapping/installing SIM cards while the MX is powered on may cause unexpected behavior or errors
2.For the MX67C, connect the antennas for cellular reception. Antennae are pre-attached for the MX68CW
3.Open the SIM tray using the SIM card removal tool included in the box
4.Insert a nano SIM card (4FF size) and close the SIM tray
5.Connect the uplink for the MX device via a wired connection to connect to the Meraki cloud
6.Power on the MX and wait for the MX to show as online in the Meraki dashboard
7.Check with the carrier of choice if an APN needs to be configured. If so, do that from the Meraki Dashboard underSecurity & SD-WAN > Monitor >
Appliance Status > Uplink tab
8.Navigate to Security & SD-WAN > Monitor > Appliance Status > Uplinktab and next to Status, select the edit (pencil) button and then select
Enabled. When the cellular uplink is successfully connected, you will be able to see the status on the left hand side of the Appliance Status page and in
the Uplink tab. The connection will say Ready when it is successfully connected
9.Test the cellular failover connection by unplugging the wired connection or by using the traceroute tool underSecurity & SD-WAN > Monitor >
When the WAN connection is fully enabled, Internet LED 1 will turn green.
Note that the IMEI cannot yet be found on the Meraki dashboard, only on the physical label of the device. The IMEI of the MXs with embedded LTE,
as well as the serial number and MAC address, can be found on the product label at the bottom of cellular-embedded MX devices.

Appliance Status in the Tools tab
10.If, after following the steps above, the SIM card is not detected, please confirm with your carrier that the SIM card is active and has data. You will need
the ICCID of the SIM card and IMEI of the device to get troubleshooting help from the carrier
◦A list of certified carriers can be found in our MX67 and MX68 Overview and Specifications document
11.Please contact the Meraki Support team if the cellular connection is still not being recognized after following the steps above
Additional Settings
Setting VLANs
If your WAN uplink is on a trunk port, choose VLAN tagging > Use VLAN taggingand enter the appropriate value for VLAN ID for your network.
Setting up a Secondary WAN Interface on the MX68
MX68 devices come with two dedicated Internet ports, which are both configured under Security & SD-WAN > Monitor > Appliance Status in the Uplink tab.
Setting up a Secondary WAN interface on the MX67
You can toggle the LAN2 port between LAN and Internet, through Local Status Page
Setting PPPoE
PPPoE authentication may be required if you are connecting MX device to a DSL circuit. You need to know your authentication option and credentials (supplied
by your ISP) in order to complete these steps.
•Choose Connection Type > PPPoE.
•Select your Authentication option.
•If you select Use authentication, enter appropriate values for Usernameand Password.
Web Proxy Settings
These settings take effect if the MX device has to fall back to using HTTP to contact the Cloud Controller. By default, web proxy is disabled. To enable web
proxy, do the following:
•Choose Web proxy > Yes.
•Enter values as appropriate for Hostname or IP and Port.
•If you require authentication, choose Authentication > Use authentication, and enter appropriate values for
Username and Password.
Please note that all these settings below are accessible only via the local management console.

Configuring Physical Link Settings
To configure physical link settings on the Ethernet ports, click Local status > Ethernet configuration. You can enable half duplex, full duplex, and
autonegotiation, as well as set 10- or 100-Mbps data rates.
To apply all configuration settings to the appliance, be sure to click Save Settings at the bottom of the page.
