Frequent fiber optic disconnections

[Jay-kbindustry]

I'm a new meraki user and field/help desk tech. I'm still learning networking, but I like tackling challenging problems.

I have frequent fiber outages from the mdf to an idf. The downtimes don't happen all the time, just like once or twice a week and for about 3 hours before it comes back up on its own. It goes out around the same time when it happens, either from 1pm-4pm or from 3pm-6pm. So far, I've changed the duplex fiber connector cables and sfps at the idf swich with no luck. The light on the switch port stays off during outages. 

I didn't set up anything in the portal, and haven't used meraki before, so my main question is, where do I go on meraki to start digging into this and possibly finding what could be the issue?

Hi ,

Please go to any switch look for event log. Are you in prcocess of deploying new network set up ? Please do the packet capture on uplink interface of uplink switch.

There might be chances of STP issue.

Please check and let me know. Happy to help here.

Is it just the link going down or the whole switch? Make port scheduling isn't enabled on the port.
