All Meraki Z3 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 gateway, 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:
1.Using a client machine such as a laptop, connect to one of the four LANports of the Z3.
2.Using a browser on the client machine, access the gateway'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 Z3 devices are configured to DHCP from upstream WAN / ISP servers. Simply plug the Z3's WAN / Internet port to your upstream circuit and wait a
few minutes for the unit to negotiate a DHCP address. If your Z3 device was configured to have a static address (and not attempt to negotiate DHCP), you can
held the reset button while the device is powered until the lights on the device turn off. Doing so willreturn the Z3 device to its default DHCP settings.
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 PPPoE
PPPoE authentication may be required if you are connecting Z3 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.
Note: 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.
Note: When the WAN connection is fully enabled, the device's front LED will be solid white.
