Hi,
	You aint the only one ;).  I have a ticket open with Ascend.  Our
MAX came with 7.0.3 and it did nearly everyday, i upgraded to 7.0.4 and it
wasnt as bad, then i upgraded to 7.2.0 and bang started doing it again.
Out of interest sakes i downgraded back to 7.0.3 bang! started again.  SO
i upgraded to 7.0.4 and it has been steady for 10 days now.  Very strange,
Ascend dont have an answer as of yet, the weird thing is, i changed some
of the routing tables around on our main Cisco, and took RIP of every
single router/term server we haev and it has been steady since.  I don't
know if it could be something like that causing it, but it is sure
coincidental.
