Meraki networks, refer to the online documentation (documentation.meraki.com).
1. Login to http://dashboard.meraki.com. If this is your first time, create a new account.
2. Find the network to which you plan to add your switches or create a new network.

your Enterprise license key, which you should have received via email.
