<p class="MsoPlainText">I have been troubleshooting an issue with Brocade TAC in regards to our Brocade CES that we use for some static routing. The Firmware has been upgraded and hardware has been replaced and still the problem is occurring. I have talked
to some other carriers I work with that have previously used Brocade gear and switched because of odd issues that could not be resolved with Layer 3. Curious if anyone on this list has had other odd Layer 3 issues with Brocade/Foundry Networks gear? My issue
seems to be somehow related to the table in memory that the ARP and next-hop entries are stored in, entries will point to the wrong mac address or the wrong port for the next-hop, it happens about every 60 days like clockwork.<o:p></o:p></p>
