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 four LAN ports of the Z3C.
2. Using a browser on the client machine, access the gateway'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.
Setting up a DHCP IP address
By default all Z3C devices are configured to DHCP from upstream WAN / ISP servers. Simply plug the Z3C's WAN /
Internet port to your upstream circuit and wait a few minutes for the unit to negotiate a DHCP address.
When the WAN connection is fully enabled, the device's front LED will be solid white.
Additional settings
Setting VLANs
If your WAN uplink is on a trunk port, choose VLAN tagging > Use VLAN tagging and enter the appropriate value for
VLAN ID for your network.
Setting PPPoE
PPPoE authentication may be required if you are connecting Z3C device to a DSL circuit. You need to know your
authentication option and credentials (supplied by your ISP) in order to complete these steps.
• Choose Connection Type > PPPoE.
• Select your Authentication option.
• If you select Use authentication, enter appropriate values for Username and Password.
Web proxy settings
These settings take effect if the Z3C device has to fall back to using HTTP to contact the Cloud Controller. By default, web
proxy is disabled. To enable web proxy, do the following:
