Release Notes for Catalyst 4500 Series Software Release 7.x
OL-1983-28
Open and Resolved Caveats in Software Release 7.4(1)
Open Caveats in Software Release 7.4(2)
This is the open caveat in software release 7.4(2):
• 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(2)
These caveats are resolved in software release 7.4(2):
• If a switch is in VTP client mode and the trunk port connecting to the VTP server is no longer a trunk
port, ping failure or traffic disruption might occur. This problem applies to software release 7.4(1)
and earlier releases. This problem is resolved in software release 7.4(2). (CSCdy13083)
• A destination SPAN port configured to capture trunk ports cannot capture IEEE 802.1Q tagged
packets after a reboot. This problem is resolved in software release 7.4(2). (CSCdy22282)
Resolved Caveats in NonEmbedded CiscoView
These caveats are resolved in nonembedded CiscoView:
• When CiscoView is set to show a Catalyst 4006 switch with an RSM module, an error may occur
during the refresh. If the IP address for the RSM module is not configured, CiscoView tries to query
the default value 0.0.0.0 and shows the error message. (CSCdy25800)

Open Caveats in Software Release 7.4(1)

• If a switch is in VTP client mode and the trunk port connecting to the VTP server is no longer a trunk
port, ping failure or traffic disruption might occur. This applies to software release 7.4(1) and earlier
releases.
Workaround: Make the switch a VTP server. (CSCdy13083)
