MS108EUP fails to pass/provide DHCP
I have a Multi-gig managed switch (MS108EUP) that is servicing my home network. It is connected to a pfsense appliance and, at the moment, the switch is configured in basic "dumb" or unmanaged mode. ...
Yes the switch gets its IP address from the firewall in dynamic DHCP.
I can try the advanced configuration you suggested and report back my findings. Should I set this to only a small number of ports, or all active ports?

Whatever is convenient and can be used to extend testing or experiencing your firewall system.
So I ran the test and it also ended up failing. Looking at my Firewall logs there's nothing that I can see that is obvious as to why it failed (if it was a firewall side issue), but I can see the DCHP server was properly setting up addresses and renewing IP leases until the switch just stopped. Once again, a power cycle brought it back online.
Should I start an RMA process with Netgear support?
