Meraki Go GR12 Installation Guide

The Cisco Meraki GR12 is a dual-band enterprise class 802.11ax cloud-managed access point.

Package Contents

The GR12 package contains the following:

• GR12 Cloud-Managed Access Point

•Mount plate

• Mount Kit

◦ Wall screws, wall screw anchors, and security screws

Understanding the GR12

Your Meraki GR12 has the following features:

The mount plate has the following features:

Security Features

The GR12 features multiple options for physically securing the access point after installation:

1. Security screw – The accessory kit includes screws that can be used to secure the access point to the mount

cradle. Engaging the security screw prevents accidental dislodging and theft.

Ethernet Ports

The GR12 features a Gigabit Ethernet R 45 port that accepts 802.3at and 802.3af power (labeled “Eth0, PoE”). This port should be used for uplink to your WAN

connection.

Power Source Options

The GR12 access point can be powered using either the Meraki AC Adapter, PoE Injector (both sold separately), or a third-party PoE switch.

Factory Reset Button

If the button is pressed and held for at least ﬁve seconds and then released, the GR12 will reboot and be restored to its original factory settings by deleting all

conﬁguration information stored on the unit.

LED Indicators and Run Dark Mode

Your GR12 is equipped with a multi-color LED light on the front of the unit to convey information about system functionality and performance:

• Orange - AP is booting (permanent Orange suggests hardware issue)

• Rainbow - AP is initializing/scanning

• Blinking Blue - AP is upgrading

• Green - AP in Gateway mode with no clients

• Blue - AP in Gateway mode with clients

• Blinking Orange - AP can't find uplink

The GR12 may be operated in “Run Dark” mode for additional security and to reduce the visibility of the access point. In this mode, the LED will not be

illuminated. This mode may be enabled through Meraki Go mobile or web apps.

Pre-Install Preparation

You should complete the following steps before going on-site to perform an installation.

Setup your Meraki Go Account

The following is a brief overview only of the steps required to add an GR12 to your network. For detailed instructions about creating, configuring and managing

Meraki Go wireless networks, refer to the online documentation (https://documentation.meraki.com/Go).

1. Download and install the Meraki Go app: Android App,ios App,web app.

2. Create a new account and verify provided email address.

3. Follow the in-app instructions to scan and add your new hardware to the Meraki Go account.

Check and Upgrade Firmware

To ensure your GR12 performs optimally immediately following installation, it is recommended that you facilitate a ﬁrmware upgrade prior to mounting your

GR12.

1. Attach your GR12 to power and a wired Internet connection. See the "Power the GR12" section for details.

2. The GR12 will turn on and the LED will glow solid orange. If the unit does not require a ﬁrmware upgrade, the LED

will turn either green (no clients associated) or blue (clients associated) within thirty seconds.

* If the unit requires an upgrade, the LED will begin blinking orange until the upgrade is complete, at which point the LED will turn solid green or blue. You should

allow at least a few minutes for the ﬁrmware upgrade to complete, depending on the speed of your internet connection.

Note: Meraki Go setup is best performed from the mobile app.

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

for your particular organization can be found here.

Assigning IP Addresses to GR12s

All gateway GR12s (GR12s with Ethernet connections to the LAN) must be assigned routable IP addresses. These IP addresses can be dynamically assigned

via DHCP or statically assigned.

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.

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 wirelessly (by associating to any SSID broadcast

by the AP) or over a wired connection.

2. If using a wired connection, connect the client machine to the GR12 either through a PoE switch or a PoE

Injector. If using a PoE switch, plug an Ethernet cable into the GR12’s Ethernet jack, and the other end into

a PoE switch. Then connect the client machine over Ethernet cable to the PoE switch. If using a PoE

Injector, connect the GR12 to the “PoE” port of the Injector, and the client machine to the “LAN” port.

3. Using a web browser on the client machine, access the AP’s built-in web server by browsing

to http://my.meraki.com. Alternatively, browse to http://10.128.128.128.

4. Click on the “Uplink Conﬁguration” tab. Log in. The default login is the serial number (e.g. Qxxx-xxxx-xxxx),

with no password (e.g., Q2DD-551C-ZYW3).

5. Conﬁgure the static IP address, net mask, gateway IP address and DNS servers that this AP will use on its

wired connection.

6. If necessary, reconnect the AP to the LAN.

Static IP via DHCP Reservations

Instead of associating to each Meraki AP individually to conﬁgure static IP addresses, an administrator can assign static IP addresses on the upstream DHCP

server. Through “DHCP reservations,” IP addresses are “reserved” for the MAC addresses of the Meraki APs. Please consult the documentation for the DHCP

server to conﬁgure DHCP reservations.

Installation Instructions

Choose Your Mounting Location

A good mounting location is important to getting the best performance out of your GR12 access point. Keep the following in mind:

1. The device should have unobstructed line of sight to most coverage areas. For example, if installing in an ofﬁce

ﬁlled with workspaces divided by mid-height cubicle walls, installing on the ceiling or high on a wall would be ideal.

2. Power over Ethernet supports a maximum cable length of 300 ft (100 m).

3. If being used in a mesh deployment, the GR12 should have line of sight to at least two other Meraki devices. A

Cisco Partner can help ensure that your AP placement is ideal.

Mount the GR12

Attach the GR12 to the Mount Cradle

The GR12 attaches to the mount cradle with two tabs on the cradle that insert into the GR12, and is secured to the cradle using one screw.

To attach the GR12 to the mount cradle properly, line up the top edge of the AP with the top tab of the mount cradle. Since the cradle is already mounted to the

wall, guide the GR12 towards the top tab and insert the top tab into the GR12’s slot.

Then adjust the GR12 to guide the GR12’s bottom slot into the cradle’s bottom tab until it clicks into place. Once in place, the GR12 should be secured to the

cradle by using one of the included screws in the cradle’s bottom tab.
