Looks like our BGP session with MRS2 bounced around 3:47 pm. Can someone who has access confirm that the copper link bounced, too?

I reseated the SFP/cable. Appears to be back up and passing traffic. Although it didn't seem particularly loose to me.
Thanks!
I've seen in the past just certain Cat5e cables and certain manufactorer machines just didn't play too well together. Swap out one for the other and it works fine. Probably the race to the bottom/cheapest in commodity parts gives some pretty loose tolerances sometimes.
I think Jeremy has some spares, although I don't know what. We could probably also do a fiber NIC in the RR's at some point as well if we didn't want to get a copper SFP involved.
