Hello,

 

Basically 2 months into use with this an error message comes up saying Mainboard Hardware Authentication Failure and will not load any IOS and I cant even get into recovery mode by holding in the mode button on the switch.  It looks to me like a possible hardware failure but I'm not sure and wondering if you guys have experienced this issue.  Thanks

Reboot the appliance and if the same error message pops up, RMA the appliance.
