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.

I now have it on a remote PDU which can power-cycle it when it stops responding to pings, but if they come out with a f/w fix for this problem, I'd be very interested! -----Original Message----- From: AF [mailto:af-boun...@af.afmug.com] On Behalf Of Nate Burke Sent: Saturday, March 07, 2020 11:24 AM To: Animal Farm 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.
