What I've heard of Lucent's tech-support doesn't encourage me to take any action towards them. I'll try to apply some pressure towards them. > When they crash, they don't reset themselves?

Not in a scale that would warrant this. Some MAX20's give me a few CRC's from the WAN-line occasionally, but this is pretty normal. This also occurs with both software-versions (7.10.6 & 8.0.3). We have only about 5-6 filters on the MAX20, so this is not a problem as I see it. > Other than that, as i said to Mikko, we've had RAIDUS Authentication > cause major, major problems.

The problem is that I cant't find any relevance from the mailing-list archives to a Radius-problem similar to mine. Radius is crucial to us. We use it to authenticate DSLPipelines and to distribute routes, so that we don't have to add static routes to our routers. Due to this we are very reluctant to drop radius. My opinion is that we should atleast test this with a few MAX20's, but I'm yet to convince my superiors on the fact. If you (or anyone else) have information, examples or anything else to give me about radius-authentication and MAX20's I'd appricciate it very much.
