Release Notes for Catalyst 4500 Series Software Release 7.x
OL-1983-28
Open and Resolved Caveats in Software Release 7.3(1)
Open Caveats in Software Release 7.3(1)
This is the open caveat in software release 7.3(1):
• 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 7.3(1)
These caveats are resolved in software release 7.3(1):
• When STP tries to send a SCP message to set CBL for a channel port, it queries the PAgP to get the
corresponding physical ports. In some rare cases, the NMP gets a port that is removed from STP
(also nontrunking) and sends an SCP message for that port resulting in native VLAN
inconsistencies.
Workaround: There is no workaround. This problem is resolved in software release 7.3(1).
(CSCdw12370)
• When you use the set trunk command, set udld enable 2/1-50 is also executed. If you then reset
the switch, both commands are reflected in the show config output after reset.
Workaround: There is no workaround. This problem is resolved in software release 7.3(1).
(CSCdx12302)
• A Catalyst 4006 switch running a k9 image can crash if the switch acceleration is enabled and the
switch is subsequently reset.
Workaround: Disable switch acceleration when resetting the switch and enable it again after the
switch has come up. This problem is resolved in software release 7.3(1). (CSCdw73412)
• The total number of all received errored packets (as represented in the CLI by the show mac
command and its InLost counter) is not available through SNMP because the
dot3StatsInternalMacRxErrs MIB is incorrect. This problem is resolved in software release 7.3(1).
(CSCdw86025)
• If you use Merit Radius Server (a freeware application), and enter an invalid username to Telnet to
a switch configured to use RADIUS authentication and a RADIUS server is available, the switch
will reboot.
Workaround: Use Cisco Secure Radius Server. This problem is resolved in software release 7.3(1).
(CSCdx01532)
• An SNMP MIBwalk function with a community string in the format <community string>@<vlan>
returns an incorrect value. This problem is resolved in software release 7.3(1). (CSCdx66883)
• In MST mode, the “set” and “get” actions on a channel port’s dot1dStpPortPriority object might not
work properly. This problem is resolved in software release 7.3(1). (CSCdx23217)
• With spanning tree in MST mode, the stpxLongStpPortPathCost object cannot be set on any PAGP
or LACP channels. This problem is resolved in software release 7.3(1). (CSCdx23200)
• The total number of all received error packets (as represented in the CLI by the show mac command
and its InLost counter) is not available through SNMP because the dot3StatsInternalMacRxErrs
MIB is incorrect. This problem is resolved in software release 7.3(1). (CSCdw86025)
