Release Notes for Catalyst 4500 Series Software Release 7.x

OL-1983-28

Open and Resolved Caveats in Software Release 7.2(2)

• When the dot3adAggPortAttachedAggID SNMP MIB object value is queried, the returned value is

wrong. As a result, applications that rely on the value returned from this object might fail. This

problem impacts CiscoView. In CiscoView, these fields shows “N/A” when a port is configured for

the LACP protocol on the Catalyst 6500 series and Catalyst 4500 series switches:

–

“Dot1Q Tunnel” field in Port -> Config -> Physical dialog

–

All fields in Port -> Config -> VTP Pruning dialog

–

When device is in MST Spanning tree mode, the “Preferred MST Instances” field in Port ->

Config -> Spanning Tree -> MST Port Status dialog box does not work.

This problem is resolved in software release 7.3(1). (CSCdw90927)

• When a reachable host and an unreachable host are configured as “syslog server” without a default

gateway, only the first syslog message appears on the syslog server, no other syslog messages appear

on the server. After clearing the unreachable host, messages that were not sent are sent to the

reachable host all at once. The workaround is to clear the unreachable host from the configuration.

This problem is resolved in software release 7.3(1). (CSCdx52404)

Resolved Caveats in Software Release 7.3(1) CiscoView

These caveats are resolved in software release 7.3(1) CiscoView:

• RSP LED is not supported on the Catalyst 2948G and 2980G devices. (CSCdw38266)

• 802.1X Authentication timer fields are available in the port level PAE dialog box. (CSCdw86044)

• When a device is set to MST Spanning Tree mode, the “Path Cost” and “Priority” fields in the Bridge

Details dialog box cannot be set on a channeling port that is using PAgP or LACP. (CSCdx23217)

Open and Resolved Caveats in Software Release 7.2(2)

These sections describe the open and resolved caveats in supervisor engine software release 7.2(2):

• Open Caveats in Software Release 7.2(2), page 43

• Resolved Caveats in Software Release 7.2(2), page 44

Open Caveats in Software Release 7.2(2)

These caveats are open in software release 7.2(2):

• 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. (CSCdw86025)

• When 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. (CSCdx01532)

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

messages if a topology change occurs in the 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)
