Hi all,
I have a 6224 which until recently was running quite nicely without an IP, or http access, but I don't know what configurations may have been made via console since it came out of the box.
I assigned it an available IP last week, and enabled http access, and since then it's been throwing users out of their RDS sessions (eg on PC103 and PC106). The 6224 is connected via a fibre link using a StarTech Mini-GBIC SPF Transceiver into port g24, the other end of which is the same transceiver into port g48 of Switch 4 in a stack of 4x 6248s in my office. (I ruled out the connection being an issue since it was working fine before I assigned the IP etc).
I can ping -t PC103, or PC106 and see the replies are <1ms with occasional increases in latency of up to 1000ms, and packet losses of 0% when there's minimal traffic, and up to 14% when they're using RDS over the connection.
Since the problems started I noticed that the 6224 was running firmware v2.2.0.3 and the stack of 4x 6248 were on v3.3.3.3, so I upgraded the 6224 to v3.3.3.3 following Dell's PC6200UpgradeSoftwareFromVersion2.xProcedure.pdf which came with the firmware. The problem still exists.
Any help with troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated!
