Summary
SysUpTime is not being shown correctly
during an SNMP walk (Poll interval 1sec)
Log messages need to be corrected on ip
dhcp snooping rate limit scenario.
The show ip vlan command output is not
proper after more-quit prompt is
encountered, i.e. after around 16 routing
interfaces
Invalid error port number displayed on
log message when vlan is changed to
forbidden mode from access mode
The banner motd XXXXX does not
appear in show running-config
Web page mac-vlan table too slow to
load.
Confused between ip default gateway
and ip default route (update manual with
how to set a default route).
Auto Install show boot retry count line
needs to be left aligned by one space.
Cannot Access Optical Transceiver
Diagnostics Page if Multiple Submits
done prior to initial refresh completing
Error messages for non-existent stack
members non-informative
Traffic is forwarding when IPv6
forwarding is disabled
A LAG member comes UP if configured
individually as no shutdown, even though
the port-channel's state is down
Re-authenticate Now check box is not
highlighted when edit check box is
selected
Block command is not seen in show
running config through web and cli
FDB entries are getting aged out before
default age-out time, when both FDB and
MFDB tables are full.
DHCP packets forwarding is not proper
to/from the trusted and un-trusted ports
Configuring all ports in all VLANs takes
a long time
System Firmware Version 4.1.0.6

Workaround
The correct variable is used to write
SysUpTime
Interface representations in log messages
use unit-slot-port format.
The paging has been corrected.
The error message is no longer issued.
All banner configuration appear in the
running-config
For certain browsers, paging has been
implemented to speed up load times.
The ip default route command is
deprecated. Use the ip default route
command to set a default route.
The retry count alignment is corrected
This is a browser dependant issue (IE 6)
that is not seen in later versions. The web
session recovers after doing a refresh.
The user can pre-configure stack units. If
the stack unit does not exist for a switch
configuration operation, an error message
indicating same is issued.
The ipv6 forwarding command is deprecated.
To disable traffic forwarding, use the no ipv6
unicast-routing in place of no ipv6
forwarding command.
LAG members are placed in the blocking
state for dynamic LAGs and only come up
when the LAG link comes up.
The Re-authenticate Now check box is
highlighted when the edit check box is
selected
The block command is a temporary
administrative assignment and is not
maintained persistently in the saved or
running configs.
On the PCM6220, the MFDB and FDB
tables are a shared resource. The user is
continually sending new MFDB entries,
which causes old FDB entries to be
removed to make a place for the new
MFDB entries.
The frame flooding routing in DHCP
snooping now takes into account trust
status.
VLAN configuration has been optimized.
