Re: HikVision NVR on Meraki Network

I'm not sure about any global bandwidth limits. Can you point me towards where I would find that in the dashboard?   The Cameras connect directly to the NVR, the port forwarding is to allow external access to the NVR via web portal or remote app. ... View more

HikVision NVR on Meraki Network

Hello all. Relatively new to the community, but it's been very helpful in the past with my networking questions. I'm also not sure if this is in the right section of the forums (if not, please advise how to move). I am a generalist IT Manager of a team of just me at my employer. We recently had a third party vendor (a large, regional security company) install a new security camera system for us using a HikVision NVR and HikVision cameras. I set up TCP and UDP port forwarding in our MX84 firewall to allow external access, which works. However, the video feeds are incredibly slow and frequently freeze altogether. Everything looks like it is set up properly, as far as I can tell. The port the NVR is plugged into on one of our MS210-48FPs reports gigabit auto negotiate. We've tried a new CAT 5 cable and a different NVR, and the performance issues remain. Does anyone have any experience with an issue like this, or tips for something to try to alleviate the performance issues from the network side? We've also got an MS250-48FP Layer 3 switch in between the Firewall and the Routers. If there is any other information about our network that would be helpful for this troubleshooting, please ask.   Thank you! ... View more

Re: DHCP issue after stack replacement

Looks like you hit the nail on the head, @PhilipDAth. The DHCP server reports 257 IP addresses assigned in our .0/24 range. Looks like some of our VoIP phones got assigned to the wrong VLAN during the switch over, which used up the rest of the IP range.  ... View more

Issues are only with the Layer 3 switch providing DHCP, and I believe only on VLAN 1 (I don't remember any on VLAN 200). ... View more

There are two devices acting as DHCP servers on the network. An MS250-48FP Layer 3 switch acting as DHCP server for VLANs 1 and 200, and an MX84 acting as DHCP server for VLANs 500 and 50. ... View more

DHCP issue after stack replacement

I recently completed a switch replacement under the MS225 replacement action. Six switches broken in to two stacks of 3 each. Since the replacement, about a half dozen endpoints will not get a good IP address via DHCP. I've confirmed that the ports they are on are assigned to the correct VLAN, and they will connect if manually assigned an IP address. Clients are a mix of Windows 7 and Windows 10. I have tried all of the Windows troubleshooting tricks that I know of (netsh int ip reset, netsh winsock reset, ipconfig /release and /renew) and they still won't get anything from DHCP except for an APIPA IP address. If anyone has any thoughts or suggestions on what could be causing this, I'd love any help anyone can provide.   Thank you! ... View more

Sorry for the thread hijack. Is there anything bad that would happen if I cloned the switches during production time? I have two stacks of three switches each, and if I can save myself some maintenance time by cloning ahead of time, that'd be great. I don't want to clone early and bring down the network during a non-maintenance window, though. Thanks! ... View more
