Release Notes for Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3120 for HP, Cisco IOS Release 12.2(46)SE

OL-16968-01

Open Caveats

• The device manager uses the HTTP protocol (the default is port 80) and the default method of

authentication (the enable password) to communicate with the switch through any of its Ethernet

ports and to allow switch management from a standard web browser.

If you change the HTTP port, you must include the new port number when you enter the IP address

in the browser Location or Address field (for example, http://10.1.126.45:184 where 184 is the new

HTTP port number). You should write down the port number through which you are connected. Use

care when changing the switch IP information.

If you are not using the default method of authentication (the enable password), you need to

configure the HTTP server interface with the method of authentication used on the switch.

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the HTTP server interface:

If you use Internet Explorer Version 5.5 and select a URL with a nonstandard port at the end of the

address (for example, www.cisco.com:84), you must enter http:// as the URL prefix. Otherwise, you

cannot launch the device manager.

Open Caveats

This section describes the open caveats in this software release.

• CSCsg67684

When a cross-stack LACP EtherChannel has a maximum configuration, such as eight active and

eight hot-standby ports, and there are multiple rapid sequential master failovers and stack rejoins

that cause extreme stress, the port channel might not function as expected. Some ports might not join

the EtherChannel, and traffic might be lost. You can detect the condition by using the remote

command all show etherchannel summary privileged EXEC command.

There is no workaround. The out-of-sync switches must be reloaded.

• CSCsi06399

When a RIP network and IP address are configured on an interface, a traceback error occurs after

you enter the shutdown, no shutdown, switchport, and no switchport interface configuration

commands.

The workaround is to configure the RIP network and the IP address after you configure the interface.

Command Purpose

Step 1

configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.

Step 2

ip http authentication {enable | local |

tacacs}

Configure the HTTP server interface for the type of authentication that

you want to use.

• enable—Enable password, which is the default method of HTTP

server user authentication, is used.

• local—Local user database, as defined on the Cisco router or access

server, is used.

• tacacs—TACACS server is used.

Step 3

end Return to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 4

show running-config Verify your entries.
