Assigning an IP Address

All switches must be assigned routable IP addresses. These IP addresses can be dynamically assigned via DHCP or
statically assigned. C9300 switches can support a total count of 1000 VLANs per stand-alone switch or switch stack.
VLAN ID 1-1000 are configured by default, however, the active VLANs can be changed via the local status page or
dashboard. When installing an C9300, it is important to ensure that any DHCP services or IP address assignments used
for management fall within the active VLAN range.
Note: To utilize any VLANs outside of 1-1000 on a Catalyst Meraki C9300, the switch or switch stack must have ALL of
its trunk interfaces set to an allowed vlan list that contains a total that is less than or equal to 1000 VLANs, including any
of the module interfaces that are not in use. For example: If a switch needs to utilize VLANs
1,100-200,300-400,2100-2200,3000-3100, EVERY trunk interface on that switch must be configured with that allowed
VLAN list or a subset of it.
The easiest method to do this is to perform the following:
1. Navigate to Switch > Switch ports
2. in the search bar use the following search term depending on if it is a stack or a single switch:
1. switch:"{name of switch}" is:trunk
2. stack:"{name of stack}" is:trunk
3. Select all trunks configured with the allowed VLANs of 1-1000
4. set to new list including new range of VLANs. (example: 1,100-200,300-400,2100-2200,3000-3100)
5. Click Update
