Clarifications and Known Behaviors
ExtremeWare 7.3.1b3 Release Notes 63
The show log Command Truncates Long Commands
If you download a configuration, the output of the show log command might not completely display
commands longer than 240 characters. This is a display problem; the configuration loads correctly
(PD2-171470611).
The show log Display Truncates Configuration Parsing
If you download a configuration and use the show log command to view the parsing of the
configuration, the log does not display the entire parsing. This is a display problem; the configuration
parses and loads correctly (PD2-171470601).
Do Not Create Single-Character Names
When you create named components such as VLAN or access group names, do not use single character
names. The single character might be interpreted by the switch as a truncated parameter. For example,
if you name an SNMPv3 access group “a” and delete that access group using the
configure snmpv3
delete access a
command, the switch might interpret the command as configure snmpv3 delete
access all-non-default
(PD2-152594408).
Smart Redundancy Enabled in Saved Configuration
Smart redundancy is always enabled in a saved configuration. To work around this, disable smart
redundancy after downloading a configuration (PD2-128133503).
Microsoft Load Balancing
When using Microsoft load balancing, if you replace existing hardware and use the same IP address on
the new hardware (thus associating the same IP address with a new MAC address), IP traffic through
the IPFDB is not forwarded. To work around this, manually clear the IPFDB (PD2-124851229).
Telnet and the show ports Command
If you telnet to the switch and use the show ports info detail command, the line feeds might not be
recognized, resulting in output lines overwriting previous lines (PD2-130127501).
The show configuration Output
After using the unconfigure switch all command, the show configuration output displays the
VLAN default without any ports assigned. The ports still belong to the VLAN default, as the
show vlan
output correctly displays (PD2-128233941).
Upgrading to ExtremeWare 7.0 and Bi-Directional Rate Shaping
When you directly upgrade from ExtremeWare 6.2.2 to ExtremeWare 7.0 (or later), bi-directional rate
shaping does not work if the loopback ports were in autonegotiation mode. This behavior is not
displayed by 10/100Base-T or Gigabit fiber ports. A workaround is to remove and re-add the loopback
ports to the VLAN (PD2-107820904).
Upgrading to ExtremeWare 7.0 and Debug-Trace
When you directly upgrade from ExtremeWare 6.2.2 to ExtremeWare 7.0 (or later), the debug-trace
configuration might change. Verify the debug-trace configuration, if any, after upgrading. Use the
show
