Caveats
CSCdt42091
Intensive Telnet/FTP probing may cause a device that is being probed to stop responding. (Generally
this represents a fault in the device being probed.)
Workaround: Probe the device at a slower rate and increase the probe interval value.
CSCdt42937
If the CSM is forwarding traffic while configuration is occurring, error messages may appear on the
screen.
Workaround: Ignore these error messages.
CSCdt44655
Booting the CSM with a large number of virtual servers configured (over 2000) causes the CSM to
go offline.
Workaround: Reduce the number of virtual servers and reboot.
CSCdt45461
HTTP GET probes may fail when probing using large HTML pages.
Workaround: Probe using smaller web pages, or probe using a HEAD request instead of a GET
request.
CSCdt64850, CSCdt75262, CSC77827, CSCdt79110, CSCdt80328
In configurations approaching the CSM’s maximum limits, the CSM may reboot when a maximum
load that contains certain traffic mixes and large amounts of invalid traffic is applied.
Workaround: None.
CSCdt72948
IDENT protocol causes slow Telnet connections to CSM.
Workaround: Do not use the IDENT protocol to communicate with the CSM.
CSCdt73069
When the MAC address corresponding to a real server IP address changes, it may take 5 to 6 minutes
before probes to that real server are successful.
Workaround: None.
CSCdt73118
Although it is possible to configure the Catalyst 6500 Series switch remotely using HTTP server,
the CSM does not support this mode of configuration.
Workaround: None.
CSCdt75365
Trace route to a VIP does not work.
Workaround: Do not use trace route to a VIP.
CSCdt76588
The CSM appears not to see some SYN ACKs when forwarding a heavy flow of traffic.
Workaround: None.
