SG350-28P Some ports dropping on/off

[Antony_85]

Hi Everyone,

I have a SG350-28P switch acting all haywire. The switch has 1 wireless link and 6 IP Cameras (PoE) connected to it.  The ports where the IP cameras are connected; are dropping randomly (frequently). Port1 (where the wireless link is connected) drops off sometimes but not as frequently as the other ports. I had a computer connects and run a continuous ping test and that seems to be working fine (not dropping) Any idea what could be the cause?

      - Review the port configuration(s) , make sure they are in host-mode and or being set as access-ports.

Thank for your reply Marce1000. I will have  a look at the switch to confirm if the ports re set up as access. I did a reboot from the console and that seems to have resolved it. No dropping out yet.

I see similar behavior on my C1000L switches. All ports are confirmed access ports and the end connection are to work stations that stay online always unless rebooting to apply updates. So they are ports that Id expect 99.0% uptime on but are not. No issues are reported as a result but trying to understand what or why this occurs?

Hi MMSIT, the switch has been working fine since the reboot. I will port the results if I manage to find something else. Thank you for your reply.

Hi everyone,

So after 2 weeks or so the switch started to do act up. I had another SG350 8 port switch and I installed it there and disable STP. everything was good until I plug in the IP cameras. as soon as I plug in the cameras the new switch starts behaving the same way. Only common denominator I can think of is PoE. there's 1 more camera connected with a power injecter and that (port) works fine. Below is the log entries

Is it possible the port is not negotiation the correct power output to the cameras?
