Hi - is the switch itself a DHCP client or does it have static IP addresses on it's VLAN interfaces?

Hello kwanshe01,

I am sorry you are experiencing this issue.  To explain mostly likely what is occurring is that the switch does not have a Static IP address.  It either has gotten DHCP from your DHCP server or is on its default IP address.  If it is on the default IP address it is considered Dynamic and not static.

To fix the issue statically assign your switches IP address then enable the DHCP server.
