Postal franking machine doesn't work
We have a Neopost postal franking machine. It only supports 10M but I have attached it to a small Netgear switch that does 10./100/1000
and then conected it to our network. As soon as it is plugged in it starts transmitting saturating the 10M link.
If I plug it in the Internet side ( directly to the router ) it works fine
If I plug it in our side of the Smoothwall filter it also works fine
As soon as I plug it into something ( anything ) connected to the main switch it just starts transmitting like there is no tomorrow and won't stop
Any ideas anyone

Hi interele,
Welcome to our community! :)
Before any further, May I know the model number of your switch? Is it unmanaged switch? Where is it connected? May you be able to provide us some network topology to look at?
Regards,
Excellent drawing attached :-)
The network in entirely flat.
As soon as it is pluggin in to the XCM or any switch below it it starts
transmitting like mad - drawing is simpilified in a way
The franking machine only does 10M so to plug it in anywhere
I use a Netgear GS108PE
