Wireless Client Whitelist

Vijay2918 — Fri, 05 Apr 2024 05:30:01 GMT

Hi Team,

In the Meraki dashboard, we can whitelist 3000 wireless clients. Is it for the entire network or for the specific SSID?

What will happen if we whitelist more than 3000?

Where do we see the whitelisted client count details in the dashboard?

If we whitelist one of the device's MAC, how many days will it exist in the dashboard? If we can't connect the whitelisted device to the wireless network for more than a month, will it exist, or can we connect the device after 50 days from the day of whitelisting?

If the whitelisted working device gets inactive for 3 months, will it work after 3 months?

Some of the wireless clients frequently disconnect from the network. How can we mitigate that?

Is there any way to see all the client's individual connectivity time on a single page with the graphical representation for the specific SSID?

It's by network

What will happen if we whitelist more than 3000?

Just filtering the clients to which it is applied, there is no counter.

Where do we see the whitelisted client count details in the dashboard?

On the clients page. https://documentation.meraki.com/General_Administration/Monitoring_and_Reporting/Client_Details_Page_Overview

Take a look at the cloud data retetion policies

Yes

You need to be more specific, in this case I suggest you open a support case.

On client details. https://documentation.meraki.com/General_Administration/Cross-Platform_Content/Clients_Usage_Page_Overview#Client_Details

For each of your questions you can read the documentation or open a support case.

It seems to me that you might be trying to use a feature for a requirement for which it was not designed. You might be better to outline what you are trying to achieve and seeing if the hive mind can come up with a more appropriate solution..?

Hi Alemabrahao,

Thank you for your response.

I got the information from your reply, and I tried to implement it. I found that we can filter and find the whitelisted device count for a maximum of one month from the client usage page.

I would like to know the exact number of whitelisted devices.

To know more about that, I am going to open a support case, as you suggest.

Hi Greenman ,

Yes, you are right. I think I am trying to get the details from the client usage page, which is not designed.

I would like to get the graphical usage details of each device that is connected to the SSID in a single file.
