Re: v1.5.14 Bug Reports and Comments

Mon Mar 13, 2023 4:37 pm

I have 97 Netonix switches, a mix of 8, 12 and 26 port models with 1.5.11 -> 1.5.14. Memory leaks fixed on most of them but I've got one that's just started doing it after a 3 years of mainly trouble free running.

No broadcast, STP nor discovery running. I disabled SNMP but it made no difference.

I have tftp backups of the switch configs since it was installed. Nothing was changed on Saturday at the site.

What did change on Saturday was one of the WATCHDOG targets started failing as the target site was upgraded with a new IP address. This would imply there is a missing delete[] call(s) somewhere in the watchdog subroutine(s)

Any update on the various issues people have reported with applying configuration changes?

What happened Sunday to free up the memory? Did the switch crash/reboot?

I feel like a lot of this might be falling on deaf ears, but we are also having a number of VLAN issues on this firmware. Pretty sure it was also present on 1.5.12. Adding VLANs to the switch seem to apply, but when plugging hosts in, they don't come online on the expected VLANs. Switch MAC table doesn't show the host on the port. We have to then toggle the VLAN off and back on for it to take effect.

Yeah I've seen this problem a few times when adding new vlans. 1.5.5 is one of the last good versions we've came across.

Netonix staff, can we get these issues looked into? Something went south with applying new VLANs and the handling of SFP ports between 1.5.6 and 1.5.14.

It will also not block if you enable it from one port and disable the other. It sticks with the original configuration until its rebooted. The checkmarks are updated properly on the page but doesn't work until reboot.

Thanks for the reply,

Rebooting the switch doesn't power cycle the actual device. Is their a way to recycle the port without loss of power?

I'm confused by your reply but to maybe answer your question, on the Status tab, the Gear icons at the right allow you to "Port Bounce Link" or for PoE ports, "Port Bounce POE"

For any others with the memory leak issue with the snmp server, we've created a cronjob that evaluates the memory at 3am. If available memory is low, it restarts the server. If that doesn't fix the memory issue, the host is rebooted.

If you're interested, flick me a message. Happy to share it with the community.


Fun fact, even though cron is in the list of services that are meant to be started at boot, it does in fact not start up. I should be surprised, but alas...

@jpmoller - I'd love to see your cronjob script.

Yes, the netonix rebooted. I can confirm there is definitely a memory leak in the watchdog as similar happened at another site where a destination IP address for the watchdog had changed.
