Release Notes for Catalyst 4500 Series Software Release 7.x

OL-1983-28

Open and Resolved Caveats in Software Release 7.4(3)

• If a port shuts down due to security violation, this behavior may occur:

–

If an age timer is not set, learned MAC addresses become configured addresses.

–

If an age timer is set, learned MAC addresses are cleared.

This problem is resolved in software release 7.5(1). (CSCin25101)

• If you use RADIUS authentication to log into your switch from the integrated CiscoView utility,

CiscoView may send the RADIUS the user ID $enabl5$ instead of the user ID you entered. This

problem is resolved in software release 7.5(1). (CSCdz18313)

• When the supervisor engine fails POST, the software only functions partially and only a few select

tasks run. When this failure occurs, the system will not update the power supply information and the

power supply status information will not be displayed by the show system and show test commands.

Open Caveats in Software Release 7.4(3)

This is the open caveat in software release 7.4(3):

• A Catalyst 4500 series switch running in the access layer may display loop guard-inconsistent

messages if a topology change occurs in corresponding designated switches that have a high number

of spanning tree instances. The switch recovers on its own and does not cause a network outage.

(CSCdz65842)

Resolved Caveats in Software Release 7.4(3)

These caveats are resolved in software release 7.4(3):

• Under rare circumstances, a Catalyst 4500 series switch will receive a corrupted VTP packet with

an invalid vlan_id, which causes the switch to crash. The switch will recover automatically. This

problem is resolved in software release 7.4(3). (CSCdy60111)

• RSPAN fails when it is enabled on a Catalyst 4500 series switch and the WS-X4448-GB-RJ45 port

is selected as the reflector port. This problem is resolved in software release 7.4(3). (CSCdy87385)
