[c-nsp] Cisco WS2960-X - Are these switches lemons or is there a stable release?

[Nick Cutting]

I've never got over the bug that plagues copper SFP's in this model of switch.  They just stop forwarding traffic randomly.

They keep promising a fix - I still haven't seen anything rock solid.

Hi guys,

For reasons best left alone, I’ve ended up with a pair of Cisco 2960-X’s (WS-C2960X-48TD-L to be precise). I’ve had nothing but trouble with them so far, hence asking the list. Does anyone know if there is a stable software image for them that doesn’t crash when you SSH to it or drop the stack module offline and split brain for fun?

Thanks,
Ian
