Connectivity & DHCP problems

Wed Mar 10, 2021 2:17 pm

Hello everyone, hope you're all doing great.

My problem is that users on the network keep getting disconnected or having connection problems.


The network architecture is thus;

1. Internet is a DIA from the radio to ISP's IDU
2. From the IDU, it went into Cisco 2900 router
3. From Cisco 2900 router to Mikrotik Cloud Core CCR-1009-8G-1S
4. From the Mikrotik to a Cisco 2960 switch.
5. From the Cisco switch to multimedia converters which carry the network over Fiber to other buildings in the company (about 2square 2km)
6. At the receiving ends, the netlink 100 BaseT multimedia converters feed the network to Cisco 2960 switches.
7. The 2960 switches then provide internet to desktops over LAN and also wireless via tplink TLMR2430 access point.

The tplink access points are configured to provide DHCP. Should that be so? Or I should disable it so that only Mikrotik can do that?

Why do you think that the network keeps flapping or kicking users out?

I'll attach a squiggly diagram I drew up to illustrate the network.

Thank you in anticipation of your guidance

And what we can say....
you should check problems from a end-users and from center of you network.
You can install TheDude at your 4 fiber sites.. to monitor other 3 legs and center of network
You can use many stuff to debug that.

If your problems are related with DHCP service who works at APoint and end-user not recevie it that seams like problem at a Branch part of your network. Maybe a AP should be upgraded.
Many stuff here can give you a problem.
