merakiUpdateMgmtVlan

This script will quickly update the management VLANs of all Meraki devices of a certain family within a given network. The script uses action batches by default, so it should have no problem updating hundreds or thousands of devices at a time.

Prerequisites

1. Active Cisco Meraki subscriptions in the orgs where the script will be run
2. API access enabled for these organizations, as well as an API Key with access to them. See how to enable here
3. A working Python 3.0 environment
4. Install libraries in requirements.txt

Usage:

• Clone repo to your working directory with git clone https://github.com/Francisco-1088/updateMgmtVlan.git
• Install libraries with pip install -r requirements.txt
• Update config.py file with your api_key, the desired vlan_id you will configure on the devices and the product family you wish to update (if looking to update Meraki APs, set this to MR, or if looking to update MS switches, set it to MS)
• Execute with python main.py
• When prompted, enter the number associated with the organization you wish to work in as displayed in the list
• When prompted, enter the number associated with the network you wish to work in as displayed in the list
• The script will tell you the number of devices of the selected family that will be updated, enter Y if you wish to proceed, or N if you wish to abort

Caution:

• This script assumes the devices will receive IP addresses via DHCP and that there is a reachable DHCP server from your VLAN of choice
• Each action batch will update 100 devices, and a maximum of 5 will be running at a time. The script constantly checks for unfinished batches in groups of 5 before creatingg a new one (that is, it will not create a 6th batch until at least one of the 5 in queue are done).
