GS308E Not in range/No IP Address
Hello,
My new switch doesn't seem to be getting an IP Address, I have followed the instructions for installation but nothing. This is the correct device as the MAC address is the same. Any advice would be gratefully received?
Is there a DHCP server on this same broadcast domain?
i would suggest to add a DHCP reservation for this MAC address on your router DHCP server just to be on the safe side. It's strange there is no IP assigned - I would expect to see the DHCP client does pick up the default IP instead.
