Rare project developers

[Marcos Felipe Schwarz <>]

Hi Alex,

It seems that all Dataplane ports are down.
Did you checked if they came up after your restore?
Already tried a reboot, but they seem to be in an error state.
I'm trying to use it for some tests.

Regards,

Marcos Schwarz

I was too optimistic, of course :( Adapting the control-plane to the new 
interface of the gearbox chip is a lot more work than anticipated.

I'll have to do some more planning before asking you for more time on the 
device. It should now be in the same state it was before.

Regards,
Alex
