What we found (we have about 12 KFP-4s in our building) is that if a KFP gets
a RTMP packet that lets it pick a network number while it is loading, it
barfs on the download and autoconfigures with its new network number and
name.
The cure: Disconnect it from the appletalk...this seems to work just fine.
We suspect that PAP status messages will also cause it to restart, but
this has not yet been proven.
