Hello Pierre,
As long as you can confirm that the switches have a stable connection to us and are being managed by the ESRS gateway, you can ignore the status shown in Service360. Newly purchased devices will have to be in "installed" status for 3 months in order to have the Connectivity feature in Service360 to show as connected.

There is no way around that wait period.
Best regards,

What are their serial numbers? I can check their installation and contract status.

Hi,
try to take a look to this post

Should be something not configured correctly inside the Remote Connection in CSI

Yeah Install base status (connection type is ESRS and contract is all good). But 26 days ago something happened within your environment. Ever since then it shows offline/disconnected for us. This is what I can see:
06-14-2017 05:41:09.506 IMPORTANT INFO EDDAppPoll-GW: Connection Failed For Serial Number::JAE1835074Y-CLI. Application::EMCRemote. Port::5414. Reason::Socket closed.
06-14-2017 05:41:09.507 IMPORTANT INFO EDDAppPoll-GW: Connection Failed For Serial Number::JAE1835074Y-CLI. Application::RemoteDesktop. Port::3389. Reason::Socket closed.
Have your network team check the network/firewall rules to make sure traffic can go both ways. Also it wouldn't hurt to reboot your ESRS gateway.
Good luck,
Steffen

Sorry Pierre about that
The device status is "Not Connected" because inside our Installbase the Remote Connection field is "Customer Permission Required- See Site Messages". If this is not a correct status please open a Service Request asking to change it for example as "unrestricted Access".
