    Hey everyone, Is anyone here running "Oxidized" on the ICX 6610 to backup the config ? I am have issues with getting it run on this switch and so I thought I would ask here on the thread where I have learned so much about this device. I have "Oxidized" running on Librenms. Thanks.

I have no...
