I think what you recall is that the thing would reboot itself after each and every addition or removal from the forwarding table (or maybe it was fixing an IP to a MAC).

As I have a number of devices I access remotely that was a PITA. What was an even bigger PITA was that on one occasion it managed to completely corrupt or lose either the forwarding or fixed IP table - on reflection while typing I think it was the fixed IPs as I remember going round everything taking them off DHCP and allocating fixed IPs.

Whatever it was the many bugs in the firmware and the fact it simply couldn't reliably do a TrueImage backup over WiFi (set to 300 it would hang inside a couple of minutes, 145 - maybe it would complete eventually or maybe not) made me eventually ask for a VMNG300 from the CEO office.
