I think only one in networking market doing that is Cisco in their products with CMP. So Nexus7k RP1, SUP2T, RSP880? Ethernet or RS232 on control-plane really isn't an OOB port at all, as it fate-shares the same hardware and software, IOS dead, RS232 dead. Of course on RS232 you at least can send break signal, to start executing rommon and boot the box from there. But my understanding is that virtually no one uses this feature for some reason, and indeed it does not work in IOS-XR 9k today at all. It seems people are content with Nike and Corolla OOB. -- ++ytti _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
