It also lacks some of the features I require (S-Flow).

Also the used equipment has often spent its entire life in a datacenter on an equipment lease. I am about to install my first 7301 as a BGP router, I think these may lead a tougher life since some were probably installed at customer prem by carriers for metro Ethernet service. One place I won’t go is their security (ASA) product line. Seems well built with good performance numbers, but apparently it’s a bitch to configure them, or else my customers hire incompetent Cisco experts. Every time they mess with the VPN config it breaks something, they blame the ISP, and it’s never the ISP’s fault.

Apparently I don't use these turds enough to remember everything. show config says: interface FastEthernet0/3 switchport access vlan 777 switchport mode access speed 100 duplex full no cdp enable !

I even tried just setting the description. Same result.
