Understanding the GR10-HW

Your Meraki GR10-HW has the following features:

The mount plate has the following features:

Security Features

The GR10-HW features multiple options for physically securing the access point after

installation:

1. Security screw –The accessory kit includes screws that can be used to secure the

access point to the mount cradle. Engaging the security screw prevents accidental

dislodging and theft.

Ethernet Ports

The GR10-HW features a Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 port that accepts 802.3at and 802.3af power

(labeled “Eth0, PoE”). This port should be used for uplink to your WAN connection.

Power Source Options

The GR10-HW access point can be powered using either the Meraki AC Adapter, PoE Injector

(both sold separately), or a third-party PoE switch.

Factory Reset Button

If the button is pressed and held for at least ﬁve seconds and then released, the GR10-HW

will reboot and be restored to its original factory settings by deleting all conﬁguration

information stored on the unit.

LED Indicators and Run Dark Mode

Your GR10-HW is equipped with a multi-color LED light on the front of the unit to convey

information about system functionality and performance:

Orange - AP is booting (permanent Orange suggests hardware issue)

Rainbow - AP is initializing/scanning

Blinking Blue - AP is upgrading

Green - AP in Gateway mode with no clients

Blue - AP in Gateway mode with clients

Blinking Orange - AP can't find uplink

The GR10-HW may be operated in “Run Dark” mode for additional security and to reduce the

visibility of the access point. In this mode, the LED will not be illuminated. This mode may be

enabled through Meraki dashboard.

Pre-Install Preparation

You should complete the following steps before going on-site to perform an installation.

Conﬁgure Your Network in Dashboard

The following is a brief overview only of the steps required to add an GR10-HW to your

network. For detailed instructions about creating, conﬁguring and managing Meraki wireless

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 APs or create a new network.

3. Add your APs to your network. You will need your Meraki order number (found on

your invoice) or the serial number of each AP, which looks like Qxxx-xxxx-xxxx, and is

found on the bottom of the unit. You will also need your Enterprise license key,

which you should have received via email.

4. Go to the map / ﬂoor plan view and place each AP on the map by clicking and

dragging it to the location where you plan to mount it.

Check and Upgrade Firmware

To ensure your GR10-HW performs optimally immediately following installation, it is

recommended that you facilitate a ﬁrmware upgrade prior to mounting your GR10-HW.

1. Attach your GR10-HW to power and a wired Internet connection. See the "Power the

GR10-HW" section for details.

2. The GR10-HW will turn on and the LED will glow solid orange. If the unit does not

require a ﬁrmware upgrade, the LED will turn either green (no clients associated) or

blue (clients associated) within thirty seconds.

* If the unit requires an upgrade, the LED will begin blinking orange until the upgrade is

complete, at which point the LED will turn solid green or blue. You should allow at least a

few minutes for the ﬁrmware upgrade to complete, depending on the speed of your

internet connection.

Check and Conﬁgure Firewall Settings

If a ﬁrewall is in place, it must allow outgoing connections on particular ports to particular IP

addresses. The most current list of outbound ports and IP addresses for your particular

organization can be found here.

Assigning IP Addresses to GR10-HWs

All gateway GR10-HWs (GR10-HWs with Ethernet connections to the LAN) must be assigned

routable IP addresses. These IP addresses can be dynamically assigned via DHCP or statically

assigned.

Dynamic Assignment

When using DHCP, the DHCP server should be conﬁgured to assign a static IP address for

each MAC address belonging to a Meraki AP. Other features of the wireless network, such as

802.1X authentication, may rely on the property that the APs have static IP addresses.

Static Assignment

Static IPs are assigned using the local web server on each AP. The following procedure

describes how to set the static IP:

1. Using a client machine (e.g., a laptop), connect to the AP wirelessly (by associating to

any SSID broadcast by the AP) or over a wired connection.

2. If using a wired connection, connect the client machine to the GR10-HW either

through a PoE switch or a PoE Injector. If using a PoE switch, plug an Ethernet cable

into the GR10-HW’s Ethernet jack, and the other end into a PoE switch. Then connect

the client machine over Ethernet cable to the PoE switch. If using a PoE Injector,

connect the GR10-HW to the “PoE” port of the Injector, and the client machine to the

“LAN” port.

3. Using a web browser on the client machine, access the AP’s built-in web server by

browsing to http://my.meraki.com. Alternatively, browse to http://10.128.128.128.

4. Click on the “Uplink Conﬁguration” tab. Log in. The default login is the serial number

(e.g. Qxxx-xxxx-xxxx), with no password (e.g., Q2DD-551C-ZYW3).

5. Conﬁgure the static IP address, net mask, gateway IP address and DNS servers that

this AP will use on its wired connection.

6. If necessary, reconnect the AP to the LAN.

Static IP via DHCP Reservations

Instead of associating to each Meraki AP individually to conﬁgure static IP addresses, an

administrator can assign static IP addresses on the upstream DHCP server. Through “DHCP

reservations,” IP addresses are “reserved” for the MAC addresses of the Meraki APs. Please

consult the documentation for the DHCP server to conﬁgure DHCP reservations.

Installation Instructions

Choose Your Mounting Location

A good mounting location is important to getting the best performance out of your GR10-

HW access point. Keep the following in mind:

1. The device should have unobstructed line of sight to most coverage areas. For

example, if installing in an ofﬁce ﬁlled with workspaces divided by mid-height cubicle

walls, installing on the ceiling or high on a wall would be ideal.

2. Power over Ethernet supports a maximum cable length of 300 ft (100 m).

3. If being used in a mesh deployment, the GR10-HW should have line of sight to at least

two other Meraki devices. A Cisco Partner can help ensure that your AP placement is

ideal.

Mount the GR10-HW

Attach the GR10-HW to the Mount Cradle

The GR10-HW attaches to the mount cradle with two tabs on the cradle that insert into the

GR10-HW, and is secured to the cradle using one screw.

To attach the GR10-HW to the mount cradle properly, line up the top edge of the AP with the

top tab of the mount cradle. Since the cradle is already mounted to the wall, guide the GR10-

HW towards the top tab and insert the top tab into the GR10-HW’s slot.

Then adjust the GR10-HW to guide the GR10-HW’s bottom slot into the cradle’s bottom

tab until it clicks into place. Once in place, the GR10-HW should be secured to the cradle by

using one of the included screws in the cradle’s bottom tab.

Power the GR10-HW

If mounting to an electrical junction box, feed the Ethernet cable through the cable access

hole in the mount cradle. If mounting to a wall or ceiling, the Ethernet cable will feed from

behind the GR10-HW. The "Power Source Options" section of this document lists the

different powering options and their unique characteristics.

Mount the GR10-HW

Attach the GR10-HW to the Mount Cradle

(This section applies to wall and/or solid ceiling, drop ceiling or electrical junction box mount

where you have already installed the mount cradle.)

The GR10-HW attaches to the mount cradle with two tabs on the cradle that insert into the

GR10-HW, and is secured to the cradle using one screw.

To attach the GR10-HW to the mount cradle properly, line up the top edge of the AP with the

top tab of the mount cradle. Since the cradle is already mounted to the wall, guide the GR10-

HW towards the top tab and insert the top tab into the GR10-HW’s slot.

Then adjust the GR10-HW to guide the GR10-HW’s bottom slot into the cradle’s bottom

tab until it clicks into place. Once in place, the GR10-HW should be secured to the cradle by

using one of the included screws in the cradle’s bottom tab.

To release the GR10-HW from the mount cradle, first remove the security screw that secures

the GR10-HW to the cradle’s bottom tab. While holding the GR10-HW with one hand, press

the cradle’s bottom tab upwards, releasing the GR10-HW from the bottom of the cradle.

Then remove the GR10-HW from the cradle’s top tab.

Desk or Shelf Mount

The GR10-HW can be placed on a desk or shelf resting on the non-scratch rubber feet. The

mount cradle is not necessary for a desk or shelf installation.

Secure the GR10-HW

Depending on your mounting environment, you may want to secure the GR10-HW to its

mount location. Your GR10-HW can be secured in several ways. If the GR10-HW has been

installed using the mount cradle, it should be secured via security screw (Torx security

screws are included) and/or Kensington lock. If the mount cradle was not used, the GR10-HW

can still be secured using a Kensington lock.

Power the GR10-HW

If mounting to an electrical junction box, feed the Ethernet cable through the cable access

hole in the mount cradle. If mounting to a wall or ceiling, the Ethernet cable will feed from

behind the GR10-HW. The "Power Source Options" section of this document lists the

different powering options and their unique characteristics.

Verify Device Functionality and Test Network Coverage

1. Check LEDs

a. The Power LED should be solid green (or blue, if clients are connected). If it is

ﬂashing blue, the ﬁrmware is automatically upgrading and the LED should turn

green when the upgrade is completed (normally within a few minutes). See

the "LED Indicators" section for more details. .

b. Note: Your GR10-HW must have an active route to the Internet to check and

upgrade its ﬁrmware.

2. Verify access point connectivity
