RE: (ASCEND) 4048 Reboots again!!!!

[Kirk Rogers <Kirk.Rogers@trw.com>]

John,
Did you get a resolution to your problem?  Our boxes are continuing to
reset, which Ascend has confirmed is a bug associated to AppleTalk.  My own
assessment based on customer experience, the problem increased as more of my
customers starting using ARA 3.0 tunneling through IP.  I can almost
guarantee that the ARA 3.0 client connections are reeking havoc on Ascends
code. 
Ascend has given us 6.1.24e20 which slowed the frequency of resets, but the
MAXen continue to reset about every 4-5 days.  We're now waiting for another
reset so I can send the coredump image to their engineers.

Kirk

	Tech support is getting back to me. They say the max seems that it
is being
	shut off. I disconnected it from the ups and plugged it directly
into a
	wall outlet and it still reboots. I'm running the default protocols
and
	haven't changed a thing since september of last year. It started
rebooting
	in november and as time goes by, the reboots are more frequent. I
did get a
	code 51 a few times which I think means out of resources. Last night
it was
	rebooting while it was booting. I think I'll try a new power cord.
