Before your device arrives
In order to manage and configure devices, you'll first need to create an account in
Dashboard, if you don't have one already. For instructions on creating a Dashboard
account, Creating a Network and Adding Devices and Licenses, please refer to Meraki’s
Getting Started guide:
https://documentation.meraki.com/Getting_Started
For your Telstra Internet Direct service to operate at the maximum rate, you are advised
to shape your outbound traffic on the Security Appliance. Within our network we police the
rate of your service at 50 Mbps or 100Mbps. Therefore, you should rate limit your
outbound traffic to slightly below this value –47 Mbps is recommended. This will ensure
the burst rate on the Security Appliance does not exceed our policer. Failure to apply
shaping outbound may result in below par speeds being achieved.
Configure outbound traffic shaping as follows:
1. Login to the Meraki dashboard
2. Select Security Appliance.
3. Under Configure, select Traffic Shaping
4. Set the Uplink configuration for WAN 1 to the values shown
below

Connecting to WAN
All Meraki MX devices must have an IP address. This section describes how to configure
your local area network before you deploy it. A local management web service, running on
the appliance, is accessed through a browser running on a client PC. This web service is
used for configuring and monitoring basic ISP/WAN connectivity.
Setting up a static IP address
To ensure that the client PC is redirected to the local web service in the following step, you
must disable all other network services (ex: wi-fi) on your client machine.
Do the following to configure basic connectivity and other networking parameters:
1. Using a client machine such as a laptop, connect to one of the LAN ports of the MX.
2. Using a browser on the client machine, access the appliance's built-in web service by
browsing to http://setup.meraki.com. (You do not have to be connected to the Internet to
reach this address)
3. Click Uplink configuration under the Local status tab. The default credentials use the
device serial number as the username, with a blank password field.
4. Choose Static for the IP Assignment option.
5. Enter the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway IP and DNS server information
provided in you Telstra Internet Direct Completion Advice.
