Open Caveats in Release 2.2(8)
This section describes known limitations that exist in CSM software release 2.2(8).
• CSCea02255
The CSM processes the TCP connection, although the MAC address is not intended for that port.
Occasionally, the switch floods a SYN (synchronize) packet to all bridge ports. In this case, the CSM
incorrectly resets or load balances the unintended connection.
Workaround: In most cases, the bridge device sends the destination MAC addresses to the correct
port.
• CSCdz61644
These restricted CSM port commands return the “failure” message instead of the “feature not
supported” message: set port cdp, set port trap, set spantree portpri, and set spantree link-type.
Workaround: None.
• CSCdz61386
The last module in the chassis may not be shut down gracefully.
Workaround: None.
• CSCdz53839
The standby CSM incorrectly reports that it learned the address resolution protocol (ARP) address
for a server or gateway on both sides of the bridging VLANs. The problem is caused by the external
device, which overwrites the padding data in the ARP requests inserted by the CSM.
Workaround: None.
• CSCdz50182
Token Ring and FDDI VLANs should not be allowed on CSM trunk ports.
Workaround: None.
