Just polling here to see if anyone else has observed an issue with Stratix 5700 switches similar to what I've been seeing. At our site we have a 5700 as the main switch in our PLC panel, then we have another one in an MCC. When we connect the MCC switch to the main switch, we notice several (don't remember if it's all of them or not) of the LED port status indicators change from green to yellow for about a minute and then they go back to green. If I'm connected to a PLC with Logix5000 through the main switch, then I get disconnected when this happens. After the lights go back to green, everything is back to normal.
There is another integrator on this project and he's said he's seen this behavior before at other sites and they kind of just live with it. I'm planning to contact Rockwell at some point to see if they know what is going on here, but figured I'd check here to see if I'm the only one seeing this type of issue or if this is a more common phenomenon. The switches are pretty much in their default config, the only thing we've done is set them up with IP addresses.
Any feedback is appreciated...
