Hello all,

Have someone experienced low memory on this device? My switch was working and after some days I tried to access it by ssh, it didn't response, by console there was the message "low on memory.. try later". However, after reset, it became work well but the memory is filling along the days and now it is 61% used.

Hi

If your constantly getting low memory change the IOS version , that's an early deployment ios move to the recommended version safe harbour c2960s-universalk9-mz.150-2a.SE9.bin  or to any other MD release. Some ios versions can be more susceptible to mem leaks than others
