I am looking for sites that are runnning 3.5.4.1 on thier 8600 switches currently, We are about to upgrade to it (to resolve the memory leak issues in 3.2.2) and I would like to know if it is stable and sound.-thank you.

That memory leakage issue can be traced to version 3.2.2 of the Passport 8600 code when SSH and NTP daemons are present.

Don't be overly alarmed about this vulnerability, it took nearly two years of uptime for the memory leak issue to build, its effects are brief IST/SMLT link sessions going down and back up interrupting services. A simple reset of the switch, turning off NTP and SSH will buy back risk but it is a matter of buildup time until it starts to happen again.
