Re: (ASCEND) sick of lost of route problem with max4k



I have a similar problem.  We have a Max with 5.0Ap1 (yes I've been meaning
to upgrade forever) and if the power is ever cut for any reason, when it
comes back and my users reconnect, their static routes do not take effect.
I see the static route in the static route section but if I show the active
routes in termserv it is not listed.  If I go to static routes and do
something as simple as changing the priority (doesn't matter what, just that
it is changed) it will suddenly pop up and the static route starts working.

So basically any time there is a major power outage and the UPS can't hold
(or the max reboots for any other reason) I spend the next hour changing
something small on every single static route so it will become active again.
