Havent come across this with console server to MX series connections.  I'd be suspicious of a usb-to-serial adapter if that's in the equation anywhere.

Nope - we have quite alot of MX boxen in the network and havent seen a console port die yet...

Have you asked JTAC? Is it a common console router/connector/laptop/usb serial thing?

Just a quick question to those using juniper MX series routers.. or perhaps any series - is there a known issue with the console port dying ? We've seen this happen on two different boxes - completely unresponsive after running for a few weeks, reboot doesn't fix it, and no output at all on it, even during the freebsd boot
sequence.

So before I start second and third-guessing what I've been doing to it, is this a known issue that people have seen elsewhere ?
