GS724TPv3 The switch loses IP connection about 1 time in 5 days.
Hi, I have Netgear switch GS724TPv3, newest firmware installed The switch loses IP connection about 1 x every 5 days. I don't know why? While power supply of IP cameras powered via POE is...
Unfortunately, no communication with the switch works.
Likewise, the switch is unavailable in Netgear Insight.
I was thinking about rebooting as a preventive measure, for example rebooting every 3 days at night to avoid losing connection.
Reboot of course while the switch is still IP accessible.
Loop detection (STP) and DoS were enabled.
After disabling STP the switch died and I had to reboot to factory settings.
I only have the syslog before the loss of communication from Insight. (attached)

Another option is to power the switch from a smart plug, so you can easily power-cycle it remotely. You could also do this on a schedule.
