Hi all,

Encountered this issue on mutiple client sites where Eir Sagemcom routers have been installed. When installing switches specific models GS1920-8hp, GS1920-24hp and GS1920-48hp Switch boots up just fine and any devices connected work perfectly,

However the switch itself fails to find the default gateway and must be configured manually before the switch will register with NCC.

Has anyone encounterd this issue?

    Hi @LukeArchbold,

    Regarding the issue you’re encountering, please first verify DHCP server functionality on the Sagemcom router, whether it is correctly providing the default gateway option (DHCP Option 3).

    In our local testing with USG FLEX 200H, we confirmed that the default gateway is successfully received.

    Therefore, if possible, we recommend capturing packets to confirm whether the router is sending the default gateway information in its DHCP Offer. This will help us narrow it down and investigate further.
