bonjour all,
when doing a test in lab yesterday, I was surprised that a change in mtu size on EX-2300C forced me to do a power cycle on the switch.
I was connected in console and simply issued a set interface ge-0/0/11 mtu nnnn command. I was at that moment pinging my switch successfully through that interface.
I issued a commit confirmed 3, then promptly lost the pings.
no problem, I said to myself, everything will be back in 3 mns.
But the pings never came back even after the console informed me that the rollback had occured !, the only way I found of getting back my ping was to do a power cycle on the switch.
the switch is running 18.2R3-S3.11
I don't mind having to reboot after a change in mtu, but losing access to the switch even if I do a commit confirmed is kind of scary.
Also, If I ever end up having to do this on a remote switch, is there such a thing as a "commit and reboot " command ?
as always, thanks for your help.
merci,
Michel
