Wireless firmware versions MR 30.1 changelog

Important note

While Meraki APs have traditionally relied on UDP port 7351 for cloud communication, and TCP ports 80 and 443 for backup communications, with MR 28+ we are beginning the transition to using TCP port 443 as the primary means for cloud connectivity. In order to ensure proper connectivity to the Meraki cloud after this upgrade, please ensure that all “Meraki cloud communication” traffic specified in the "Help" > "Firewall Info" page is allowed through any firewalls or security devices that are deployed upstream of your Meraki APs. These requirements have been updated in November of 2022, so it is important that you review them. (Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E APs)

I've been running it on a network with MR55, MR56 and CW9166 for a couple of weeks and it is a stable beta when using the existing features. I haven't tested the new features yet...

Finally UNII-3 Support in the EU. 🎉

Can more info be given also because in the Netherlands for example in UNII-3 the transmit power may be less than for UNII-1.

Are the Radsec settings supposed to be visible on the dashboard yet? The doc mentions them but then goes into detail on how to set the certificates up via the api? I upgraded a test network and don't see anything new.

I believe it is API only at the moment.
