Yes, network scanning can bring down a switch or core device. But, it all
depends on the hardware you have. What is the core switch? What OS version
is it running? What kind of scans is your security person running?

Subject: [THIN] Port Scanning
Has anyone seen where port scanning caused major network issues? Our
security officer runs port scans on our network when ever she wants to and
it never fails that our network then chugs down to a complete halt and we
have to reboot our core switch to correct the problem. Any ideas or
suggestions?
