Intro:

If you want to use some SOCIFI features (bandwidth management, PayThru, roaming) you'll have to set external RADIUS on your Meraki controller. SOCIFI recommends to use configuration with the external RADIUS as the first choice. The following steps can slightly differ for each Meraki type, but the logic of settings is the same. Settings for Meraki Z1 and Meraki MR12 follows.

Note: The configuration without RADIUS authentication can be found here: Meraki without external RADIUS authentication.
