Open Issues, Known Behaviors, and Resolved Issues Table 39: Platform-Specific and Feature PDs (Continued) PD Number Description PD4-679100494 Hot swapping I/O modules in a fully populated chassis causes the modules to go into failed state for a short period of time causing the switch to reboot until it comes up in an operational state. Summit Family Switches PD4-944608201 A Summit family switch shows an error when trying to apply a dynamic ACL using the meter action-modifier.
Table 39: Platform-Specific and Feature PDs (Continued) PD Number Description PD3-77983510 Summit X450a and Summit X450e series switches and BlackDiamond 8800 a-series and e-series modules provide more powerful ACL capabilities. Because of this, the amount and complexity of ACL rules will naturally impact the time needed to process and apply the ACL rules to the switch. This will also impact switch bootup time. Access Control List limitations fall into two areas: physical and virtual.

Open Issues, Known Behaviors, and Resolved Issues Table 49: Platform-Specific and Feature PDs (Continued) PD4-594067381 During a firmware upgrade, one or more of the I/ O modules may get stuck in a booting state during the TFTP download process. After the firmware upgrade is complete, ExtremeXOS software reboots the switch and the I/O modules should become operational within 5 to 10 minutes. If this does not occur, run the firmware upgrade again on those I/O modules only.
Table 49: Platform-Specific and Feature PDs (Continued) PD4-461858543 In certain situations, a BlackDiamond 20808 is unable to send line rate multicast traffic. Summit Family Switches PD4-736302244, PD4-445637097 When configuring sampling rates lower than the 256 default value, the show sflow configuration command automatically rounds up the configured sample rate to 256.
