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.

When the WAN connection is fully enabled, the device's front LED will be solid white.
