Release Notes for Catalyst 6000 Family Software Release 5.x 25

Resolved Caveats in Software Release 5.2(3)CSX

• If the switch is in VTP client mode, entry of a copy device:ﬁlename conﬁg command may

generate messages about nonexistent VLANs. Wait until the show vlan command displays the

VLANs and then enter the copy command again. This problem is ﬁxed in software release

5.3(1)CSX. (CSCdm07337)

• Do not conﬁgure anymodule so that the number of GVRP-enabled ports, including the individual

physical ports in GVRP-enabled EtherChannels, times the number of VLANs on the module,

exceeds 720. This problem is ﬁxed in software release 5.3(1)CSX. (CSCdm18614)

• The MSM is not supported as a SPAN source port. Conﬁguring the MSM as a SPAN source port

generates a “Failed to conﬁgure source port” message. If you conﬁgure the MSM as a SPAN

source port, all subsequent SPAN source port conﬁguration commands for that SPAN session

generate the same message until you remove the MSM from the source port list with a set span

disable mod_num/port_num command. This problem is ﬁxed in software release 5.3(1)CSX.

(CSCdm20365)

• When you turn off the power on any module, you cannot turn the power back on through SNMP.

The workaround is to use the CLI command set module power up mod_num. This problem is

ﬁxed in software release 5.3(1)CSX. (CSCdm23288)

• Occasionally during bootup, a bus ASIC sequence error syslog message is reported to the console

as follows:

%SYS-1-MOD_INVALIDSEQ:Bus asic invalid sequence occurred on module 3 (asic=1,

srcidx=0x0, seq=28)

This message might be generated for any module. Ignore this message. This problem is ﬁxed in

software release 5.3(1)CSX. (CSCdm32301)

• This bug does not effect system operation. The 48-Port 10/100TX Switching Modules

(WS-X6248-TEL and WS-X6248-RJ-45) “Send admin” ﬂow control ﬁeld (show port

ﬂowcontrol mod_num/port_num) might show “desired” when the port is connected as well as

when it is not connected or disabled. This problem is ﬁxed in software release 5.3(1)CSX.

(CSCdm37747)

• If Gigabit channel ports and 10/100BaseTX channel ports are used as SPAN source ports, the

Gigabit channel ports might not show up in the Oper Source ports ﬁeld. This problem is ﬁxed

in software release 5.3(1)CSX. (CSCdm39024)

• This bug does not effect system operation. On disabling the Multilayer Switch Module (MSM),

the show module command shows “faulty” instead of “disabled”. This problem is ﬁxed in

software release 5.3(1)CSX. (CSCdm42419)

• If all ports of a channel are disturbed by either resetting the module(s) on the remote end, or due

to a broadcast storm, the switch might not transmit or receive any GMRP control packets. The

workaround is to disable and then enable the GMRP feature on the switch which experiences this

problem. This problem is ﬁxed in software release 5.3(1)CSX. (CSCdm45744)
