Cisco Meraki Configuration

Meraki Go is not supported by the Smart WiFi Platform.

Upon ordering our service, you will be given some specific information to populate the fields in your specific Meraki dashboard.

The following instructions outline how to setup a Cisco Meraki for the Smart WIFi Platform. Additional Cisco options may need to be enabled before you’re able to configure completely.

  1. In Cisco Meraki Dashboard, navigate to Wireless > Configure > Access Control.
  2. Select the SSID to be configured to the Smart WiFi Platform.

    Please do not use any apostrophes in your SSID as it will cause an issue with Authentication.
