Z3/Z4 Quick Start
Quick Start
If you just want to get started without reading any more, follow these basic steps.
- Unpack and mount your Z3/Z4 (desktop or wall mount) and power it on.
- Make sure the Z3/Z4 can get a DHCP lease from the WAN connection / ISP modem.
- Plug the WAN / Internet port into the WAN connection / ISP modem using the provided patch cable.
- After powering on, the Z3/Z4 may need to download the latest firmware image from the cloud. While upgrading, the power LED will flash. When the Z3/Z4 has fully checked into the Cisco Meraki Dashboard, the LED become solid.
- Login to http://dashboard.meraki.com and create a new network. Enter in the serial number of your Z1 (found on the bottom of the unit). This will create a new teleworker gateway network to begin working with your Z3/Z4.
- You’re done!
If you need to set up a static IP address for the WAN connection, please read the Z3/Z4 Installation Guides.
