[SRX5308] ERROR: miiSwitchRegisterRead: Timeout

I have the following in the logs of my SRX5308 [latest FW 4.3.3-6]. The messy alignment is verbatim.                                 Sat Oct 31 17:21:17 2015((GMT+0100)) [SRX5308][Kernel][KERNEL] ...

Just guessing: that miiSwitchRegisterRead seems to refer to the Media Independent Interface (a standardized interface between an Ethernet logic IC and a PHYsical interface IC connected to the Ethernet magnetics), and suggests that a switch-related register can't be read.

 

Also: I notice that when the high traffic coinciding with these errors is underway, log-on to the SRX5308's web interface is extremely slow. This all points to the SRX5308 being maxed out by the heavy traffic.

I have the same issue on my FVS336GV3 latest FW. I have all the error messages below after reboot, without any traffic.
