I wonder if your router and his switch had an issue at the same time.
That lends credence to the theory that you're getting something wacky on
the power line.

Subject: [AFMUG] Somewhat OT: Random reboots
I’ve been having the strangest day today with my network. It all
started with a sudden reboot of my core router. Made no sense to me at
all until Sterling mentioned the brownouts (my core router sits right
next to many of his switches in the same cabinet).
Next, another core router reboots about an hour later. No power loss,
no indication of issues, just a random reboot caused by a random kernel
panic.
Then three hours later, two of my netonix switches rebooted with no
warning.
I’d say my network is being hacked, but there no manual commands
triggered. It is just out of the blue.
Maybe the solar eclipse did it? Or maybe I made some celestial being
angry? Whatever it is, I just want it to stop!
I can see having reboots several times one one device, but one time on
almost every device in such a small timeframe is paranormal.
Thank you,
Brett A Mansfield
