Open and Resolved Caveats in Software Release 4.5(8)
• When upgrading Supervisor Engine II from software release 3.2(5) directly to software release
4.5(7), the clock may report an earlier date and become stuck after the reset. Use the set time comm
to recover the correct time and start the clock. This problem is resolved in software release 4.5(9).

• The switch might display “Out of memory” messages, which can cause VMPS to become inactive.
This might be caused by duplicate MAC addresses in the VMPS database.
Workaround: Reboot the switch. This problem is resolved in software release 4.5(9).
(CSCdr95115)
• When the RMON alarmStatus is set to “invalid” (4), you might see the following syslog message:
Task RMON AlarmTimer waits for the same semaphore alarm_sem
Workaround: Clear all the RMON alarmEntries.
This problem is resolved in software release 4.5(9). (CSCds01500)

This section describes open caveats in software release 4.5(8).
• If you have multiple ATM fabric integration modules (WS-X5165) installed and you have more than
50 LECs configured on each module, a multiple-module software download to the modules can take
an excessively long time to complete. For this reason, we recommend that you download software
images one module at a time (by specifying the module number in the download command).

• On the Gigabit EtherChannel module (WS-X5410), if a host allowed on one secured port is moved
to another, previously unused secured port on the same module, the host cannot connect to the
network on the second port.
Workaround: Disable port security on the first port, move the host to the second port, and then
reenable port security on the first port (if desired). (CSCdk31747)
• After a switchover from the active to the standby supervisor engine, the SPAN destination port
might not function correctly. (CSCdk55360)
