I hope a power cycle brings it back online.

@cmr - any additional info on this? What causes it, what to look for, etc? This is a bit concerning as I have over 100 MV72s sitting on 5.2. 

We're deploying a high number MV72s to a number of sites currently and have had a fair number of MV72s not come back online after updating to 5.2 for the LLDP fix. They power on initially, get the 5.2 update and randomly do not seem to come back. If we power them down, bring them back to our office and reconnect them a few days later, sometimes they'll function again. We've had to RMA a few, though.

@derek_b I'm a customer, so unfortunately don't know what exactly has changed to fix the issue.  I'd not yet upgraded my 72x (we don't use many MVs) and will definitely go straight to 5.3 in light of this.

Ah okay, I just assumed you were Meraki staff. Apologies.
