Open Caveats in Release 2.2(7)
This section describes known limitations that exist in CSM software release 2.2(7).
• CSCdz61644
Some restricted CSM port commands return “failure” instead of “feature not supported.”
Workaround: None
• CSCdz61386
The last module in the chassis may not be shut down gracefully.
Workaround: None
• CSCdz53839
In certain network setups, the standby CSM incorrectly reports that it learned the 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
• CSCdz40545
In a Hybrid Catalyst system, a switch running both Cisco IOS and the Catalyst operating system,
the CSM stays as the active system if the MSFC was shut down and the switch processor is still
running.
Workaround: Manually shut down the CSM.
• CSCdz12163
The CSM drops packets because MLS and the MSFC use different MAC addresses. This problem is
still in pre Catalyst 7.5.1 software releases. If any Supervisor engine 2 in the switch is still running
pre 7.5.1 software and the traffic is forwarded by that switch, the CSM drops the packet.
Workaround: None
• CSCdy88197
During reset of the CSM, show module command displays the module as faulty when it should be
displayed as “Other.”
Workaround: None
