Ugh, we experienced an awesome bug (and subsequent outages) with one of these once.... there was a bug in the firmware that was triggered simply by executing a show command... yes.... a show command.... effectively locking up the switch, requiring a hard reboot.

We didn't know what caused the lockup the first time.... so it happened a few more times over the course of troubleshooting the first outage.

That was not a fun weekend.

Took us months to trust touching those switches outside of a scheduled downtime change window because of that.....
