MR70 Installation Guide

The Cisco Meraki MR70 is a dual-band enterprise class 802.11ac cloud-managed access point.

Package Contents

The MR70 package contains the following:

• MR70 Cloud-Managed Access Point

• Mount cradle including built-in level tool

• Mount Kit

◦ Wall screws and wall screw anchors

Understanding the MR70

Your Meraki MR70 has the following features:

The mount cradle has the following features:

Security Features

The MR70 allows 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 MR70 features a Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 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 MR70 access point can be powered using either the Meraki AC Adapter, PoE Injector (both sold separately), or a

third-party PoE switch. The MR70 operates at full power with 802.3af PoE.

Factory Reset Button

If the button is pressed and held for at least ﬁve seconds and then released, the MR70 will reboot and be restored to its

original factory settings by deleting all conﬁguration information stored on the unit.

ED Indicators and Run Dark Mode

Your MR70 is equipped with a multi-color ED 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 MR70 may be operated in “Run Dark” mode for additional security and to reduce the visibility of the access point. In

this mode, the ED will not be illuminated. This mode may be enabled through Meraki dashboard.

Pre-Install Preparation

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

Conﬁgure Your Network in Dashboard

The following is a brief overview only of the steps required to add an MR70 to your network. For detailed instructions

about creating, conﬁguring and managing Meraki wireless networks, refer to the online documentation

(documentation.meraki.com).

1. ogin 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) 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 license key, which you should have received via email.

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.

Check and Upgrade Firmware

To ensure your MR70 performs optimally immediately following installation, it is recommended that you facilitate a

ﬁrmware upgrade prior to mounting your MR70.

1. Attach your MR70 to power and a wired Internet connection. See the "Power the MR70" section for details.

2. The MR70 will turn on and the ED will glow solid orange. If the unit does not require a ﬁrmware upgrade, the ED

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

* If the unit requires an upgrade, the ED will begin blinking orange until the upgrade is complete, at which point the ED

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.

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 MR70s

All gateway MR70s (MR70s with Ethernet connections to the AN) 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 MR70 either through a PoE switch or a

PoE Injector. If using a PoE switch, plug an Ethernet cable into the MR70’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 MR70 to the “PoE” port of the Injector, and the client machine to the “ AN”

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. og 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 AN.

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 ocation

A good mounting location is important to getting the best performance out of your MR70 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 MR70 should have line of sight to at least two other Meraki devices. A

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

Install the MR70

For most mounting scenarios, the MR70 mount cradle provides a quick, simple, and ﬂexible means of mounting your

device. The installation should be done in two steps. First, install the mount cradle to your selected location. Then,

attach the MR70 to the mount cradle.

Attach the Mount Cradle

The MR70 mount cradle can be used to install your access point on a wall, solid ceiling, or pole.

Wall or Solid Ceiling Mount Using Mount Cradle

Using included wall anchors and screws, attach the mount cradle to your mounting wall or ceiling. It is

recommended that the MR70 be mounted to a wall or solid ceiling using the mount cradle for physical security

reasons.

Pole Mount Using Mount Cradle

Use mounting straps (not included) to secure the mount cradle to a pole. Thread the mounting straps through the

mounting strap slots to secure the mount plate in a horizontal or vertical orientation. Vertical orientation is

recommended for optimal RF coverage.

Connect Access Point to Ethernet and/or AC Adapter

Using a phillips head screwdriver, remove the screws that secure the Ethernet cover. Ensure that the Ethernet cable

(and power cable, if applicable) is properly secured in the black cable gland. Secuire the Ethernet cover with the phillips

head screwdriver.

Mount the MR70

Attach the MR70 to the Mount Cradle

(This section applies to wall and/or solid ceiling where you have already installed the mount cradle.)

The MR70 attaches to the mount cradle with two tabs on the cradle that insert into the MR70, and is secured to the

cradle using one screw.

To attach the MR70 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 MR70 towards the top tab and insert the top tab into the

MR70’s slot.

Then, adjust the MR70 to guide the MR70’s bottom slot into the cradle’s bottom tab until it clicks into place. Once in

place, the MR70 should be secured to the cradle by using one of the included screws in the cradle’s bottom tab.
