At the moment we have 12 switches of the type TP-LINK TL-SG1024DE. These switches are connected in serie now, which means when one in the middle goes down that all the others in the chain will loose Internet access.
I want to connect the switches in MESH so that they are redundant and the network will remain working except for the downed switch.
When I connected the network to the MESH topology I got the problem that the whole network went down. This was probably the cause of looping.
How can I configure the TP-LINK switches to enable the topology MESH?
