JGS524ev2 Loses mgmt ip on reboot
Morning all, have the above switch that simply will not retain its mgmt ip during a reboot. I forgot it was having this issue until i updated the firmware this past weekend. Other then losing its mgm...
Your JGS524Ev2 has a config for the managment VLAN?
Again, if you have multiple VLANs and there are DHCP servers the JGS524Ev2 can pick up IP addresses on any VLAN...
No Windows or MacOS system at hand to try the Netgear switch discovery utility? It might be informative for you.

Not sure how the device is not accessible when in this stated doesnt answer your question. If you need the black and white, correct, the discovery tool does not work. The mgmt vlan is on the default vlan one, there are no other mgmt ip's on the device. I use multiple vlans other than 1 but they are all passthrough only. DHCP itself for all internal vlans is all being served by dhcp server. All passthrough dhcp functions conrrectly during this time, only dhcp from the switch istelf appears broken.

Though this doesnt explain the previous behavior it was the current issue. I have since shutoff dhcp and it consistently reboots and has no issues. Thanks for the followup. I have marked the solution.
Ok, so a static IP assigned now instead of DHCP - that's about the only solution, indeed. Sorry, missed to mention this opiton.
