TPlink Smart Switch answering for devices IP, randomly.

This will come back to me, but a former customer has another IT guy who put in a TPlink Smart switch with some L3 ish capabilities. Randomly, accessing an internal website or the router for the internet via IP (single subnet LAN with no VLAN's), the web page bounces to the switches web gui after a few seconds. I have never seen this is 20 years. I am not sure how such a feature could be used. Any tplink experts? This is likely bleeding over to any device like server shares etc. as we are seeing clients access to anything go off and on randomly. I can understand why as it would likely hand the mac address of the switch to requested IP to be cached on a PC until it expires.
