One major thing to note not mentioned in the video... Establishing a Meraki VPN client connection when the client is located on the LAN of the MX is unsupported. So basically you need to be outside of the network to even attempt to setup the VPN client (Windows, Mac, Linux, etc..) . It will fail to connect by design. The easiest workaround (if you want to test/complete the setup without leaving the office or wherever you may be) is to use a cell phone as a hotspot (make sure the Wi-Fi is turned off) and complete the VPN setup that way. 😎😎

@@praveendsouze It's 100% true... You cannot use the Meraki VPN client connection (L2PT) from inside of the MX network at all. It would create a Layer 3 loopback and rip a hole in time. However if not using Meraki VPN client and a separate PPTP VPN with RRAS can be accessed and configured behind the MX but that is not what we are talking about here. 😀😀

@@DAHCKRAM yes I was wrong, we r using MX250 at main office which is connected to MX100's and other MX65's at sites which are connected through AutoVPN, but still users can use VPN (L2TP) to connect to Main Office. As u said it might be cos main office is In different subnet.

Hi Joan. Thank you for creating this playlist. It has been very helpful for me. I'm requesting a video from you showing how to get Meraki Z3 working with redirect ACL to a page provided either by Meraki or ISE for a second layer authentication. My scenario is we have users with Z3s and currently use wired (not wireless) dot1x with EAP-TLS. We want to send them to a splash page or ISE provided page for a second layer authentication. This is because we tried using TEAP but that doesn't seem to work well with our windows build.

Hello! The client VPN is not to access the dashboard or the device config ( is not for telnet or SSH on any sort). This feature is to access the local resources under the MX/Z and act as a regular under the local LAN of the network. You can find more information about the feature in the link below. documentation.meraki.com/MX/Client_VPN/Client_VPN_Overview

Hi, I like it, but I have the problems on the current Client VPN, the user can't connect to it, When we do the packet capture, we can see the traffic on the internet interface but not on the Client VPN interface, also we see some UDPENCAP packets? I don't know what that for? Please help if you have some time.

@TheITWay4 жыл бұрын
Good that you can configure the Client VPN correctly! In order to help you to reach resources under the MX/Z1/3, you need to ensure your devices under the Meraki device can respond to the new subnet you created. Most of the times this issue happens because the firewall of the resources under the Meraki device blocks the traffic to unknown subnets ( in this case, the new VPN subnet). If you allow all the traffic including the Client VPN subnet and still does not work, try taking packet captures in the LAN interface of the MX while you are doing a continuous ping from the client VPN to the internal device. You should see the ping going out from the LAN interface of the MX to the internal resource in the LAN. If you do not see a response, you should check something downstream. I hope that helps you in your issue, if you need any additional guidance, let me know.

@TheITWay4 жыл бұрын
Hello @Omer, It depends. If you have a private IP address from your ISP and you can configure Port Forwarding in the ISP router in order to forward traffic destined to the public IP address to the private IP address MX downstream, yes. If the ISP router is not able to use Port Forwarding, all the traffic destined to the public IP address will be blocked and not sent to the MX.

@TheITWay4 жыл бұрын
You should access to the local resources as if you are in the LAN of the MX. If you cannot access to the local resources, I would recommend you to check the firewall rules in the MX and the local resource and server to ensure they allow traffic form the client VPN subnet. Additionally, you can take pcap in the MX to ensure the traffic is leaving the MX and reaching your internal resource. With that, you can discard any problem with Client VPN or firewall configuration.

If you would like to know how to configure your Windows 10 to use client VPN with the MX, you can follow the guidelines in the Meraki documentation below: documentation.meraki.com/MX/Client_VPN/Client_VPN_OS_Configuration#Windows_10 You do not need licenses for end devices, the only license you need is for the MX in the dashboard. You can have as many client VPN connections as your MX supports
