CW9162I-MR Overview

The Meraki CW9162I-MR is an enterprise-class, dual-concurrent 4x4 MIMO 802.11ax indoor

access point designed for

high-density deployments in offices, schools, hospitals and hotels. When

connected to the Meraki Cloud Controller, the CW9162I-MR enables the creation of ultra-high

speed, reliable indoor wireless networks quickly, easily and cost-

effectively.

2.1

Package Contents

The CW9162I-MR package contains the following:



2.3

Security Features

The CW9162I-MR 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 plate. Engaging the security screw prevents accidental

dislodging and theft.

2.

Kensington lock – The access point contains a hard point that allows it to be secured to

any nearby

permanent structure using a standard Kensington lock.

2.4

Ethernet Ports

The CW9162I-MR features an Ethernet RJ45 port that accepts 802.3af power (labeled “PoE”). This

port should

be used for uplink to your WAN connection.

2.5

Power Source Options

The CW9162I-MR access point can be powered using either the Meraki AC Adapter or 802.3af PoE

Injector (both sold

separately) or a third-party 802.3af PoE switch.

2.6

Factory Reset Button

If the button is pressed and held for at least five seconds and then released, the CW9162I-MR will

reboot and be

restored to its original factory settings by deleting all configuration information stored on

the unit.

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 CW9162I-MR 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 sh[email protected]om.

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 CW9162I-MR performs optimally immediately following installation, Meraki recommends

that you facilitate a firmware upgrade prior to mounting your CW9162I-MR.

1.

Attach your CW9162I-MR to power and a wired Internet connection. See p. 19 of this

Hardware Installation

Guide for details.

2.

The CW9162I-MR 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:

http://tinyurl.com/y79une3

8



3.4

Assigning IP Addresses to CW9162I-MR

All gateway CW9162I-MR (CW9162I-MR with Ethernet connections to the LAN) must be assigned

routable IP addresses.

These IP addresses can be dynamically assigned via DHCP or statically

assigned.

3.4.1

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.

3.4.2

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 either wirelessly (by associating to

any SSID

broadcast by the AP) or over a wired connection.

If using a wired connection, connect the client machine to the CW9162I-MR either through a PoE

switch or a Meraki

PoE Injector. If using a PoE switch, plug an Ethernet cable into the CW9162I-

MR’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 Meraki

PoE Injector, connect the CW9162I-MR to the

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

2.

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.

3.

Click on the “Static IP Configuration” tab. Log in. The default username is “admin”. The default

password is

the AP’s serial number, with hyphens included

4.

Configure the static IP address, net mask, gateway IP address and DNS servers that this AP will

use on its

wired connection.

5.

If necessary, reconnect the AP to the LAN.

3.4.3

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.

Verify Device Functionality and Test Network Coverage

1.

Check LEDs

The LED should be solid white. If it is flashing orange, the firmware is automatically upgrading

and the

LED should turn green when the upgrade is completed (normally in under thirty

minutes).

Note: Your CW9162I-MR must have an active route to the Internet to check and upgrade its firmware.

2.

Verify access point connectivity

Use any 802.11 client device to connect to the CW9162I-MR and verify proper connectivity using the

client’s web browser.

3.

Check network coverage

Confirm that you have good signal strength throughout your coverage area. You can use the signal

strength meter

on a laptop, smart phone, or other wireless device.
