"Clock Signal Component Issue" or again a massive marriage in Cisco devices

A few years ago, JDima wrote about a marriage at one of the suppliers of memory for Cisco network devices, leading to their early demise.

Now a problem has been discovered with the Clock Signal Component component, which may fail prematurely after 18 months of operation and the device will stop loading.

The problem affected:
')

• ASA 5506, 5506W, 5506H, 5508, and 5516
• ISA3000
• ISR4331, ISR4321, ISR4351
• UCS-E120
• IR809 / IR829
• NCS5500 Line Cards
• NCS1K-CNTLR
• N9K-C9504-FM-E / N9K-C9508-FM-E / N9K-X9732C-EX
• Meraki MX 84
• Meraki MS350 Series

If you have a warranty or contract valid on November 16, 2016, you can contact the TAC for a proactive device replacement, priority will be given to devices with more time. Detailed description and FAQ: Clock Signal Component Issue

To check the revision, issue the show inventory command and find the VID in the output:

Name: "Chassis", DESCR: "ASA 5506-X with SW, 8GE Data, 1GE Mgmt, AC" PID: ASA5506 , VID: V02 , SN: <removed>

Update: Judging by the similar symptoms, the source of the problem was a bug in the Intel Atom C2000 and not only Cisco customers will have to change hardware.
