Meraki MS220-series FOSS firmware

[hmartin]

Can I use the normal cisco commands in the cli?

No, the command line is a standard embedded Linux command line (busybox sh). The firmware does not implement any switch configuration interface from vendors like Cisco, HP, 3com, Ruckus, <insert vendor here> etc. Cisco use the click modular router for their Meraki products, for which there is no public documentation and the reverse engineering effort is ongoing.

And how do I access the cli after flashing?

SSH or uart connected directly to the switch.

I feel like a broken record for saying this, but given your questions I feel the need to set your expectations accordingly. This is a firmware still under heavy development. There is no management UI. There is no command line similar to any other switch you have.

Ok, this might be to difficult for me than, I only have a CCNA and some basic Linux skills.
I have no clue how I would configure something like vlans, poe and port security using this firmware.
Thanks for the help anyway, I really apprechiate your effort to make this possible!

So, is there and CLI help for the PostmerkOS? Just flashed my Meraki today on have it running but not sure about things like VLAN, LAG, etc..

I know it is busybox just that this is the first time I have used busybox so I am not at all familiar with this flavor. Also, I have not done much of that on linux that much just some Debian such as /etc/network/interfaces etc.. Is that the best way to approach this box? Oh, so much to learn and so little time.

Once I am more familiar I would like to contribute to the furtherment of this OS wow it is a quite switch compared to the Readstone that I am also attempting to put new firmware onto.

Oh, @hmartin thanks for the great effort you have already put into this OS and very great documentation to get this far!!!
