WAC540 - Not connected to Insight cloud after firmware update.

Hi

Have updated to V9.5.5.4 and now neither of my WAC540s will connect to insight cloud, just says Status: Device failed to connect back

Please advise where to start looking to resolve issue.

 

Kind regards

 

Simon

    Reboot. Simple if your PoE switches are Insight managed.

        Do the WAC540 get PoE power (only one port is PoE)?

         

        Do the WAC540 get IP configs assigned from your DHCP server (typically on the router)?

         

        Can you ping the WAC540 IP addresses?

         

        Can you reach the WAC540 local Web UI by using a Web browser using http://[ip-address]/ ?
