I just came upon a major bug in the gandalf xpresstack BRI. Unfornately, I can't delve any more deeply into it, since anytime I do, I crash it, and its our only one. The xpresstack has been running firmware version 3.0.3 just fine, and being connected to by Gandalf lanline 5242i edge routers running either version 2.2.2 or version 2.3.0 code. Those code versions are still very stable. I just upgraded one of the routers to version 2.5.4, and whenever I connect to the xpresstack, it crashes with a hardware failure. Once I reboot it, i can connect with the older firmware fine, but the whenever the newer firmware tries to connect, the concentrator goes down. I've contacted gandalf about this, and i'll forward any solutions they come up with. Steve Kosciolek
Known problem with incompatible compression algo's. Upgrade all your 5242's to the latest firmware and the problem goes away. -- ======================================================================== Eric Kimminau eric () kimminau org "I speak my mind and no one else's." http://www.kimminau.org/Index.html "I am the downhill tumble and roll champ, king of the toad finders, captain of the high altitude tree branch vista club, second place finisher in the round the yard backward dash, premier burper state division, sodbuster and worm scout first order, and generalissimo of the mud and mayhem society."
