Greetings follow administrators.
New to the forums here, and wanted to start off by posing a question in regard to a recent difficulty I have been experiencing:
Recently, a brief power outage hit one of my facilities, and consequently reset one of my Cisco Catalyst 2960-X switches. Went into the configuration and set all the ports back onto vlan1 to reestablish traffic back to the network and DC. However, one particular type of device has failed to reacquire and IP from the DHCP service running of the DC: the Star TSP100 receipt printer's. Managed to find a work around by connecting a Netgear switch between the receipt printer and the network cable connecting them back to the Catalyst switch. So long as the Netgear is between them and the Catalyst, they are able to acquire an IP from the DHCP service, but this is only a temporary solution. Any ideas as to what is keeping them from getting an IP while directly connected to the Catalyst, and what command on the switch's configuration will fix this issue?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers!
