I used to do that, back in the day. Then I had the problem where the
PDUs Started failing and turning everything off more than the PDUs were
helping me by letting me power cycle things. Or the Failure was
something like the router, so the PDU couldn't be accessed anyway.

We are putting remote PDUs at all sites as a general precaution –
there’s too many devices which can fail/crash, requiring a truck roll,
that end up getting fixed by a power cycle. It doesn’t take too many
disruptions like that to realize the value of a remote reboot with
ping watchdog option.

If you see enough problems that you're putting in a a remote PDU -
replace the router before putting in the PDU unless absolutely nothing
else than the RB4011 will work.

I only have one RB4011 in the field, but it seems to have a

problem, I'd be very interested!

Subject: [AFMUG] RB4011 Lockups
This week I've had 2 RB4011 Routers lockup requiring a power
cycle. They
were still passing some traffic, but stopped doing things like
handing
out DHCP, or responding to SNMP. And you couldn't log into them via
Winbox or MACNeighbor.
One was on ROS6.44.3, the other on ROS6.45. Both of them were doing
NAT, whereas most of my Mikrotiks are only routing. Both of these
locations have multiple RB4011s, and only the one doing NAT locked
up.
Nothing is recorded in the log other than the reboot. These were both
routers that have been installed for months. One router lockup I can
attribute to a fluke, but 2 in the same week is worrysome. Has
any one
else noticed anything?
