We had a ton of these devices at work that would do this exact thing. When I told some of the other engineers to be careful of it they laughed at me, until one of them plugged into the dmz switch in the middle of the day and had it reboot. Anyway I put in a tac case and of course the answer was to flash it, even after flashing it we still had the problem. I know this is going to sound stupid but what we found out is if we plug our machine in to the switch then turn the laptop on it would cause the switch to reboot. If we booted the laptop all the way up, then open up procomm plus before plugging in to the console port the switch would NOT reboot. We did this numerous times in our lab with 2900 switches. After explaining this to TAC they actually sent us replacements and we sent the others back.

We had a similiar problem, and one of the guys in work found out from cisco that a batch of switchs were sent out with the wrong setting's for the config-reg.

I guess I'll have to look at that too. I was just going to upgrade the IOS on all of these switches. Thanks. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Are you using a DELL laptop.
