Resolved Caveats in Software Release 5.3(3)CSX

• The usage display for the clear qos acl map command is:

Usage: clear qos acl map <acl_name> <mod_num/port_num|vlan>

clear qos acl map <acl_name|mod_num/port_num|vlan|all>

The second syntax form fails when entered with multiple port numbers or multiple VLAN

numbers. This problem is resolved in software release 5.3(3)CSX. (CSCdm89542)

• Do not use Netﬂow Data Export (NDE) version 1 (the default NDE conﬁguration is version 7).

This problem is resolved in software release 5.3(3)CSX. (CSCdm89362)

• After a supervisor engine switchover, a supervisor engine port might go into a state where the

port state is disabled in NVRAM. However, the ﬁrmware believes that the port is up and there is

a link on the port. This problem is resolved in software release 5.3(3)CSX. (CSCdm84809)

• When you conﬁgure DNS on the switch and specify a hostname for the COPS server, the switch

on reset prints the following to the console every time the COPS/RSVP connection manager tries

to initiate a connection to the COPS server (workgroup-pc is the COPS server in this example):

Translating "workgroup-pc.cisco.com"...domain server (171.69.2.132) (198.92.30.32)

(171.69.2.81) Host name lookup failure

Translating "workgroup-pc.cisco.com"...domain server (171.69.2.132) (198.92.30.32)

(171.69.2.81) Host name lookup failure

Translating "workgroup-pc.cisco.com"...domain server (171.69.2.132) (198.92.30.32) [OK]

This happens until the switch successfully connects to the COPS server. This problem is resolved

in software release 5.3(3)CSX. (CSCdm87215)

• An eight-port channel might stop forwarding trafﬁc after a port in the channel is disabled. This

problem is resolved in software release 5.3(3)CSX. (CSCdm89990)

• Occasionally, after being turned off and back on several times, switches conﬁgured as VTP

clients stop accepting VTP updates. This problem is resolved in software release 5.3(3)CSX.

(CSCdm90300)

• After a switch reset, non-trunking ports are put to errdisabled on a VTP client when the VLAN

is activated. For example, the switch is a VTP client with an ISL trunk to a neighboring VTP

server. There is a non-trunk port, port 6/6, assigned to VLAN 13. It is conﬁgured for auto,

negotiate. The link connects to a port on another switch, which is also auto, negotiate. When the

VTP client switch is reset, the module (port 6/6) comes online and a link up is received. The port

state shows inactive because the native VLAN is not active. When the ISL trunk is up and the

VLANs are learned, port 6/6 joins the bridge but approximately 20 seconds later, a DTP link

down message is written to the console. This problem is resolved in software release 5.3(3)CSX.

(CSCdm82642)

• System might run out of memory if SNMP cseFlowMcastQueryEntry is repeatedly created and

deleted. This problem is resolved in software release 5.3(3)CSX. (CSCdp00531)

• Using Ctrl-R (command recall) at the initial password prompt displays any part of the password

already entered. For example, if the password is “worker” and you have typed the ﬁrst three

characters of the password, a Ctrl-R will display a line reading: “Enter Password: wor.” If you

have entered the entire password and walked away, anyone can type Ctrl-R and reveal the

password. This affects both the physical console port and the telnet virtual console. Also, this is

with no TACACS server (local passwords only) using the default conﬁguration. It also only

happens at the initial login password prompt - the enable command's password prompt does not

exhibit the problem. This problem is resolved in software release 5.3(3)CSX. (CSCdm92441)
