Hi all
Went onsite yesterday to check out some network issues, so I fired up PRTG and
let it do its thing.
Later in the evening when I'm home I VPN into the site and after 12 minutes my
vpn drops , I check the public IP internet is up.
I call the IT mgr and let him know that I cant authenticate, he goes to the
office and tells me the core switch (240 port procurve) is lit up like
Christmas tree (all lights flashing), no telnet no ssh no ping reply , he does
a physical shutdown , and I'm back in , ten minutes later it drops again this
happened 4 times.
Finally the last time it remains online, they are telling me that this "has
never happened before" (at least that they know of it was late at night)
Oh and the logs on the switch only show 2 entries
1. First time installation
2. Warning loss of link on B10
So is it possible that PRTG caused this, or is likley they've never been around
that late to realize this?
