Has anyone gotten a "non-factory" firmware to go onto these guys? There are a couple threads on Google that are inconclusive. There are rumors that it's the same as a Dell something or an HP something else, but no one has outright said, "I loaded a Dell XXXX firmware onto it and solved all of the random ass bugs."
I managed to brick one of these by loading the wrong firmware, or doing it at the wrong layer. I have gotten a few more and these are great switches for home or environment where you have a spare on hand. You can usually get them for around $100 on eBay. The firmware is *really* not designed for anything fancy but I’ve been able to drop in a variety of optics and have it work without issues in the 10G ports. Check the flash on them as there is a primary/secondary flash once you’re past the boot image. (Don’t try to flash it from that level, that’s how I killed it at least). I tossed a few different firmware versions I extracted here, as well as the flash0/flash1 images and the doc i found for it. http://puck.nether.net/~jared/lb4m/ - Jared
