    Hi noibla,

    Welcome to the community ,

    Suggest to access to GS108T web gui and check the system up time.

    From the sheet you provided,we can see DHCP status is disabled,and ip address is blank.  In this condition the GS108T is not accessable.

    To access it, we at least need to set a valid ip address.  To set ip address you can use Smart Control Center , which can be downloaded here

    After ip address is ready , you can log in to the switch via broser. And under the page of "System/Mangement/System Information"  shows the system up time.

     

    Hope it helps

      Hi Carl,

       

      Thanks for th ereply. I removed the IP addresses deliberately as well as the MAC address. The unit has been on for quite a while and probably looped the counter for the uptime. It is likely that the system uptime is stored as a signed integer, however, due to the lenghtly uptime now overflows to the negative.

       

      Best to update the system firmware to have this as an unsigned integer.
