Meraki AP SSID tagging

Hi,

I have trialled a Meraki AP at home, which works fine as it's a flat network. AP gets a DHCP address and off we go. I put my AP in a network to trial it and I'm slightly confused. I want the AP to get a DHCP address in Vlan10, which works as the switchport it's connected to, is in vlan10. AP comes up in dashboard and clients also get an address in VLAN 10.

I need more SSSIDs that are in different vlans, but I can't get it to work, I can't change the switchport to a trunk, as the AP loses its connection.. do I make it a trunk, with native clan 10.? Then TAG the other SSIDs..? The vlans have their own DHCP.. thanks

Yes, you can implement it as mentioned. Use trunk, the AP will use the native VLAN and all SSIDs can get it's own VLAN-tag.

If you want, you can also use a tagged VLAN for the AP itself. For that, you can configure the "LAN IP" settings of the AP in the dashboard and change the VLAN accordingly. After that you reconfigure the switchport not to use the native VLAN.
