Problem Reports
PR 35206
The reQid packet delivery is unreliable if Qid has problems on the OS7000. It affects port mirroring. The
port mirroring feature may display frames that were received by the switch but never set out because the
queue was already full.
Workaround: There is no known workaround at this time.
PR 66806/66847
Packets are mirrored only if the hardware is programmed on an OS6624/6648. During the learning
process, the hardware is not yet programmed. Under heavy traffic not all packets will be mirrored.
Workaround: There is no known workaround at this time.
