Release Notes for Cisco IOS Release 12.1E on the Catalyst 6500 and Cisco 7600 Supervisor Engine and MSFC
OL-2310-11
Caveats
The MSFC2 does not support the MultiNode Load Balancing (MNLB) forwarding agent of the
MNLD feature set for Local Director. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E. (CSCdr65433)
To avoid multiple MSFCs in the same subnet claiming to be the OSPF designated router, use the
loopback interface IP address for each router rather than the interface IP address. This problem is
resolved in Release 12.1(4)E1. (CSCdr08174, CSCds00527)
After you enter the no mls qos flow-policing and mls qos flow-policing commands, any microflow
policing previously configured on interfaces is not restored. To recover, either remove the service
policies that have microflow policing and then reapply them, or enter shutdown and then no
shutdown commands on the interfaces. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(4)E1.
(CSCds41316)
The ciscoFlashDeviceInitTime CISCO-FLASH-MIB object does not return the correct device
initialization (insertion or removal) timestamp for the Flash devices on a redundant supervisor
engine. Users of applications that depend on ciscoFlashDeviceInitTime should take care not to
remove a redundant supervisor engine or a PCMCIA card from slave-slot0:when the applications
are performing Flash file operations. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(11b)E.
(CSCdp98597)
Downloading images to an Intel Value series 200 Flash card in the PCMCIA slot may in rare
situations fail to write a valid image. Downloading during periods of low system activity reduces the
likelihood of this failure. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(6)E (see the related
Release 12.0(7)XE1 resolved CSCdm52806 caveat). (CSCdm52806)
A traceback message displays when you exit the switch console. This message is harmless and can
be safely ignored. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(8a)E. (CSCdp35517)
Resolved Caveats in Release 12.1(3a)E7
An error can occur with management protocol processing. Please use the following URL for further

This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(3a)E7. (CSCdw65903)
Resolved Caveats in Release 12.1(3a)E4
Caveat CSCdr91706 is resolved in Release 12.1(3a)E4.
Resolved Caveats in Release 12.1(3a)E3
A spurious access may occur when the bgp deterministic med command is configured. This
problem is resolved in Release 12.1(3a)E3. (CSCdr43297)
The switch might display a HEARTBEAT-SP-6-NOT_HEARD message and reload. This problem
is resolved in Release 12.1(3a)E3. (CSCdr97710)
PIM sparse mode for the Auto-RP groups might not set the “L” flag for the 224.0.1.40 RP-discovery
group. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(3a)E3. (CSCdr51872)
In a redundant configuration, there is no command that identifies the active supervisor engine. As a
workaround, enter the show idprom sup 1 and show idprom sup 2 commands. The command that
fails identifies the redundant supervisor engine. This problem is resolved in Release 12.1(3a)E3
with the show module command. (CSCdr29969)
