## Questions & Answers

**Q: How about the licensing? i have meraki account, if i buy it from you guys, how can i use/activate? usually, meraki partners will ship with license.**
A: License Orders placed with us over Amazon are sent via Amazon Messages. So your new dashboard license key will arrive to you via Amazon Messages. We will also ship something to you, however the key is in Messages.

**Q: If i have a Meraki firewall and a Meraki switch do i still need a license for each access point or will the switch/firewall license be enough?**
A: I believe a license is required for any deployed Meraki device

**Q: where can I find pricing for 3 year licensing?**
A: Hello! You can find licensing and pricing through other sellers on Amazon or directly from the manufacturer.

**Q: Will these work with switch meraki ms120-24 and firewall meraki mx67c?**
A: Absolutely, although if the switch is not POE you will need to use a POE injector or AC power adapter to power the MR42
