Re: 511 Power Issues

by Richard Laager

When the switch came back, there was some traffic flooding. Unknown unicast flooding, I assume. Jeremy cleared the MAC table, which made the switch happy. (I suppose that caused it to re-learn in hardware or something?) It's been stable since 3:33 PM or so. You should be able to re-enable things now.
