I absolutely understand being busy and having multiple windows open and the dangers that can occur if you mix up which window is for which task. Anybody can have an issue in those conditions with any kind of hardware.
The fact this person did it 6 times in quick succession means someone gave them access they shouldn’t have to devices they didn’t understand. And yeah 6 total. There were 5 when I first wrote the bewildered email about it. That does make me consider which person might deserve the proposed the knee breaking accident. Two were the 450i which have the very convenient recovery mode feature. Three of the others we got back by getting in through the wireless side with an SM. The last was a 3.5ghz 450 (not 450i). So no recovery mode, and you know since the AP can’t talk to the SAS no SM could be authorized and an SM without a SAS grant doesn’t bridge traffic. That one was a tower climb with a default plug…….no other choice. I don’t know what individual did it, but I hope they are mercilessly heckled by their coworkers. And I do appreciate the mafioso knee breaking jokes, but I don’t actually wish them any injury. -Adam From: AF <af-boun...@af.afmug.com> On Behalf Of castarritt Sent: Tuesday, February 22, 2022 6:06 PM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group <af@af.afmug.com> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] The weirdest coincidence There are rumors that I might on occasion reboot the 450 AP when I mean to reboot an SM, but nothing proven...

In all cases the switch reports link, but I get zero Rx traffic. Power cycle doesn’t bring any of them back up. WTF just happened?
