Since you reloaded the switch then there is no logs we can get from it, i believe you should try loading a different ios and monitor, if the issue persists then replace it,

Hi,

I' recommend to use version 12.2(55)SE8.

You can find the instructions how to update in the relaese-notes:

I' recommend to use version 12.2(55)SE8.

2960 running only on Layer 2 (no default routing), 15.0(2)SE4 is also good.

12.2(55)SE8 would also be an alternative but I too would recommend.

Good to know, thanks Leo!
