Model: TL-SG3428MP  
Hardware Version: V5
Firmware Version: 5.0.6 Build 20230602 Rel.76586

Hello,

 

I connected Dlink-DIR890L router (in AP mode) on my switch and often, randomly I get a message in the log:

" D Link Router was disconnected from network "LAN" on Switch Omada " and after that

" D Link Router is connected to TP-LINK Router on LAN network. "

..and then the same message reversed

 

How is this possible having in mind that D'link AP is connected directly to Switch via network cable?

 

My config is as follows:

ER7206 v1.0  1.3.0 Build 20230322 Rel.70951

OC200

TL-SG3428MP v5.0 5.0.6 Build 20230602 Rel.76586

Few AP (660HD and one Dlink AP)

Dlink 2

Dlink

Config

  @Loop1 I think the router in AP mode is also one of the end devices, as long as it is connected to the network, it will issue various protocols. As long as devices communicate with each other, various log messages may be generated.

 This D-link router is equiped with ddwrt firmware and dhcp is disabled and its connected to the switch via lan ports and not wan port. STP is disabled,  assign WAN Port to Switch: Unchecked,  Use DNSMasq for DHCP: Unchecked, Use DNSMasq for DNS: Unchecked,Recursive DNS Resolving: Unchecked,  DNSMasq: Disabled,  SPI Firewall: Disabled, connection warrning notifier set to Warning Notifier: Disabled.

 

Evrything that I know is disabled what else could cause its behaviour I susspect on my Omada switch.

  @Loop1 As you description, the D'Link router in AP mode acts more like an unmanaged switch. When a new switch is connected to the switch port, will there be a log prompt?

  @barrolete 

Where in which switch port on the D-link or on the Omada switch?

 

I'm using this Ap as addition just for 2.4ghz I disabled 5ghz on the D-link AP, because Omada AP are very bad on the 2.4ghz, they are strongly incompatible with  huge number of Chinese power switches and sensors, lightning controllers and various devices, my object has a lot of such devices that worked terribly with the Omada.

Also you cant pack a lot of devices on 2.4ghz, this D-link with ddwrt eats them alive without any problems.

I just use Omada AP for guests for high speed an seamless transition  and hope that guests devices are compatible with Omada AP.

Since this is a non-Omada device, per the @barrolete, he/she is correct that this device might be considered a wireless device. I am aware that this is an AP but our Omada system cannot correctly recognize it due to its system or info provided to the router/controller.

And there is a possibility that your device enters the sleep mode or energy-efficient mode which can also lead to a disconnection. I think there is no problem with its WIFI connectivity.

  @Loop1 I don't care about the performance of your AP at all. What I mean by this is that the D'Link router in your network topology acts more like a switch (providing more ports), so when D'Link joins or exits the network, logs are generated.

  @barrolete Hmmm my D-link Ap is conected by lan cable directlly to the third lan port on the Omada switch, I cant understand why would it  joins or exits the network randomlly?

 

BTW it is not exiting netwotk it is moving from switch to router (as attached on photo)
