The TP-Link switch crashes when The Dude Client starts exploring the network. Only the T2600G-28TS switch will collapse within 1 minute of the start of the client. When I stop the Dude client, the switch will not reset after the physical shutdown. When the switch crashes, it can not be accessed either on http or console port, the first time the client's screen will be green, then yellow and red will be the icon of the device. Other TP-Link devices will not collapse or become inaccessible.

What's the problem, what do I do to keep my tools from getting used to and using the Dude client?

Thanks for all your answers!

Client version: 6.43.2
Server: CHR-6.42.9.vdi on VirtualBox

hello pparta

What's the version of T2600G-28TS? HW and FW? 

What do you mean the other TP-Link Switch? Do you got a model name? 

Hardware Version:         T2600G-28TS 1.0

Firmware Version:         1.0.1 Build 20160412 Rel.57988(s)

Other TP-Link switches, which do not collapse :

Hardware Version:              TL-SG5412F 1.0
Firmware Version:              1.0.5 Build 20150130 Rel.38923
 
Hardware Version:              TL-SG3216 2.0
Firmware Version:              1.0.2 Build 20150714 Rel.61832(s)
    
Hardware Version:              TL-SG3210 2.0
Firmware Version:              1.9.11 Build 20150714 Rel.61832(s)
    
Hardware Version:         T2600G-28TS 2.0
Firmware Version:         2.0.0 Build 20170928 Rel.34921(s)

Would you suggest I upload the T2600G-28Ts V2 hardware firmware to T2600G-28TS V1 hardware?

It will not collapse because it was not written!

Seems various TP-Link switches are not playing well with SNMP software.

Hi GPB

About the problem that T1700G-28TQ Lost access to management interface - still carrying traffic, we can try to upgrade the beta firmware to solve the problem.

If you have any other problem and if you need any further help, welcome to contact TP-Link Technical Support.

In fact, you can even update your switch with v3 firmware (20180201), because v1,v2,v3 firmwares are able to be installed on v1/v2 switches. It could be installed on hw v3, when it will be released also. 170928 (v2) is a good one. 20180201 (v3) is also not bad, if we are talking about SNMP perfomance. As I am using at least 170928 for a long time, I can assure you will not have problem with The Dude, Nagios, Zabbix, Kiwi cattools or smth else.
