My discoveries with the Cloud
Here are some of the things that I have discovered while setting up Insight switches/cloud. Some of this has been infuriating so hopefully it helps others.

Yes, that's right, connecting (talk) to Cloud is the pre-condition to fetch the configuration, so please alwasy keep up if you have only last one uplink port, and stay untagged in management VLAN (default VLAN1)
Yeah this whole untagged VLAN1 makes things a lot more complicated. My PCs are not on VLAN1 so for the PCs and the switches to have access to the web, then all of the routing/access between VLANs has to be sorted out. At the moment my Insight switches and the PC's on them are on VLAN1, which then all gets untagged on the uplink and tagged to the main VLAN by the L3 to access the core, and then from there untagged per usual to access the web. Not a long term solution, but it's the only way to get started with Insight switches on a live network.
