Since we've started using OSPF in our Maxen the following symptoms have
cropped up:
1. Random reboots once every two weeks or so. Sometimes only a day,
sometimes as long as three weeks.
2. OSPF dies with a memory allocation error, stopping OSPF. This error
causes routing to stop working altogether, resulting in a MAX that
takes calls and leaves the customer with a "dead" connection.
#1 is painful but only irritating.
#2 is simply unacceptable.
Conversely, the PM3's we have don't seem to exhibit these symptoms at all.
Anxiously awaiting a reply.
