Release Notes for Cisco IOS Release 12.1E on the Catalyst 6500 and Cisco 7600 Supervisor Engine and MSFC
OL-2310-11
Caveats
• Adding or removing an entry from the IGMP cache for special addresses 224.0.1.39 or 224.0.1.40
or 224.0.0.x or an interface joining or leaving a multicast group unnecessarily resets the interface
hardware, causing the interface to go down and then back up. This problem is resolved in
Release 12.1(8a)E5. (CSCdv43208)
• Entering the attach command while connected over a secure shell (SSH) session freezes the switch.
This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E5. (CSCdm78585)
• With AAA accounting enabled, TFTP downloads take much longer. This problem is resolved in
Release 12.1(8a)E5. (CSCdt42050)
• EIGRP routing updates about routes configured with the redistribute connected command are not
processed correctly. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E5. (CSCdu59583)
• When the Cisco IOS server load balancing stateful backup feature sends updates for connections
that have been both server load balanced and firewall load balanced, the firewall real information is
not transported in the connection update. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E5.
(CSCdv22951)
• The snmp trap link-status command is not saved when you enter the write memory and reload
commands. After you enter the snmp trap link-status command, the no snmp trap link-status
command has no effect. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E5. (CSCdv03931)
• When a Layer 3 interface goes down, there is up to a 1-second delay before the MSFC is notified,
which results in a convergence time of approximately 2 seconds in the Layer 3 redundant
environment. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E5. (CSCdt44165)
• After multiple online insertion and removal (OIR) operations on an OC12 or OC48 optical services
module (OSM), the running configuration for the slot may be lost and the OIR may fail. This
problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E5. (CSCdv11985)
• The switch might reload due to a bus error in process_events_waiting_p. This problem is resolved
in Release 12.1(8a)E5. (CSCdv46280)
Resolved Caveats in Release 12.1(8a)E4
• A Telnet connection through an OC-12/vip4-80 either times out or is too slow to process commands.
This problem also affects other applications such as FTP and HTTP. This problem is resolved in
Release 12.1(8a)E4. (SCSdv09097)
• With Release 12.1(8a)E and later releases, when you configure the spanning tree port-priority on an
access port, a line entry is created for all the VLANs even if they are not in the VLAN database. This
problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E4. (CSDdv03102)
• A race condition exists when hidden VLAN updates and trunking information is processed by the
OSM-4GE-WAN modules. If the trunking information is processed first, the main interface fails to
ping. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E4. (CSCdv21981)
• When the NAT outside-source static translation is configured, packets are forwarded without
translation. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E4. (CSCdv12429)
• Configuring IPX NLSP causes a system reset. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E4.
(CSCdu63323)
• Partially switched multicast packets coming from an OSM interface might trigger an MSFC reset.
This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E4. (CSCdv24728)
• If a switch is responding to hosts using proxy ARP and has multiple paths to a destination network,
the switch might forward packets for the host for which it is performing the proxy ARP to the
interface the switch proxied to if the primary path fails or a new path with a lower metric is added.
This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E4. (CSCdu47015)
