Release Notes for Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3120 for HP, Cisco IOS Release 12.2(40)EX1
OL-12250-01
Limitations and Restrictions
VLANs
This is a VLAN limitation:
When the domain is authorized in the guest VLAN on a member switch port without link loss and an
Extensible Authentication Protocol over LAN (EAPOL) is sent to an IEEE
802.1x supplicant to
authenticate, the authentication fails. This problem happens intermittently with certain stacking
configurations and only occurs on the member switches.
The workaround is to enter the shut and no shut interface configuration commands on the port to reset
the authentication status. (CSCsf98557)
Stacking
These are the switch stack limitations:
• When using the logging console global configuration command, low-level messages appear on both
the stack master and the stack member consoles.
The workaround is to use the logging monitor global configuration command to set the severity
level to block the low-level messages on the stack member consoles. (CSCsd79037)
• If a new member switch joins a switch stack within 30 seconds of a command to copy the switch
configuration to the running configuration of the stack master, the new member might not get the
latest running configuration and might not operate properly.
The workaround is to reboot the new member switch. Use the remote command all show run
privileged EXEC command to compare the running configurations of the stack members.
(CSCsf31301)
• When the flash memory of a stack member is almost full, it might take longer to start up than other
member switches. This might cause that switch to miss the stack-master election window. As a
result, the switch might fail to become the stack master even though it has the highest priority.
The workaround is to delete files in the flash memory to create more free space. (CSCsg30073)
Device Manager Limitations
These are the device manager limitations:
• When you are prompted to accept the security certificate and you click No, you only see a blank
screen, and the device manager does not start.
The workaround is to click Yes when you are prompted to accept the certificate. (CSCef45718)
• If you launch the device manager from a Firefox web browser, an invalid certificate alert appears.
If
you launch the device manager from an Internet Explorer 7.0 browser, a certificate error appears.
The workaround when using Firefox is to either temporarily or permanently accept the certificate.
If you temporarily accept the certificate, close and then reopen the Firefox browser window. If you
permanently accept the certificate, delete the certificate, and then close and restart Firefox:
– If you are using Firefox version 1.5, choose Tools > Options > Advanced > Security >
View
Certificates > Web Sites, select the certificate, and click Delete.
– If you are using Firefox version 2.0, choose Tools > Options > Advanced > Encryption > View
Certificates > Web Sites, select the certificate, and click Delete.
