Hi,

I've already posted my Q in this post but no problem to move it here...
https://community.extremenetworks.com/extreme/topics/c35-premature-failures

Q: Yes or No, Extreme Networks knows which units are affected and who bought them.

I've had some tickets in the past regarding hardware issues and for some of them Extreme tracked the hardware back to the day it was produced and even looked into the logs to see whether all test steps went ok.

So I'm pretty sure the answer is Yes and I wonder why we've to make a road trip thru the country to check a sticker if it would be easier to just look into a database and filter the required information.

Hi Drew,

first - thanks for your information concerning that issue

one question regarding the shipping no. - do I have any possibility to
check that number without being onsite?
