Hi,

Im a Junior Networkengineer and i must block some Mac addresses on a specific wifi (SSID).

Could you explain me how to do that? Mac addresses are allowed to connect with other wifi's.

Find the client on the client page, then select different policies by connection and ssid and then block it for the SSID in question.

Note: The device will still receive an IP address and will be able to resolve DNS names.

Note: The EAP exchange will still be allowed for wireless clients, and devices will be able to associate with an SSID. The block will apply to client traffic after the 4-way handshake is completed.

Blocking or Allow listing a Client

There are two ways to allow list or block a client on the Cisco Meraki dashboard.

Note: There is a limit of 3000 clients for allow listing and 3000 clients for blocking. An error will appear when attempting to allow list or block more than 3000 clients.

Take a look at this document and consider using iPSK without Radius.

I am not a Cisco employee. My suggestions are based on documentation of Meraki best practices and day-to-day experience.
