SuperStack 3300 Firmware Problem

L. Weissman
1/12/98

Problem :

  1. Today I visited a customer site with a SuperStack 3300. The customer told me that occasionally he needs to reset the switch to solve connection problems.

  2. Last week I installed a 3300 switch. Today the customer called me reporting that the network performance is slow. All LEDs on the switch are flickering in a manner indicating a lot of network activity (which is not the case).

  3. A customer in Brussels installed three new SuperStack switches (not from Scitex). This customer complains that following the SuperStack switches installation a server and printers sometimes disappear from the network.

Solution:

Revision on the switch MUST be 1.07 and up (But NOT 1.08)..

The problematic Firmware on was 1.06 (wrong one).. We loaded 1.07 (the pre-requisite in the release notes) and the switch performed faster a more reliably.

The older firmware causes a LOT of network disconnections and problems that will affect the total site on different computers.
