M4100-50G-POE+(GSM7248P) auto reboot

Is it possible to auto reboot this switch every night? I need to reboot it every 1-2 weeks to keep working.

Hi ronaldpeeters,

Welcome to our community!

GSM7248P doesn't have auto-reboot feature. May I know what seems to be the problem?

There are 8 access points (WAC720) connected via POE to this switch. Every 1-2 weeks my customer complains that his users cannot connect to internet with their smartphone. When I check the access points (are in ensemble config) they seem to be fine but a reboot of the switch (and via poe also the access points) makes the system working again.

ronaldpeeters,

Maybe there is something going on inside the network that causes flood for the switch to stop working. May you be able to run syslogs so that we may know what seems to be causing that issue?

    What is the current firmware version of your M4100 switch? If ever it is not yet the latest version, I suggest you to update it. The latest M4100 firmware is v10.0.2.35 and you can download it here.
