The 2.2 software releases support the existing Catalyst 3000 switch family (including the Catalyst 3000, Catalyst 3100 and Catalyst 3200) and CPW1601. The 2.2 software releases introduce the following features:
For detailed information about configuring CGMP and DISL Protocols, refer to the 2.2(1) Configuration Note. For detailed information about configuring other features on a Catalyst 3000 series switch, refer to the Installation and Configuration Guide.
Caution if you are upgrading a pre 2.0 system, you MUST upgrade the bootcode first. If you do not, the system will not boot when restarted. For complete details, see the section "Downloading the 2.0 (or above) Image to a Pre 2.0 system" in the 2.0 series of Release Notes. |
Caution Clearing a port's statistics resets all of the counters for this port, both those displayed on the console and those reported via SNMP. If you are using port statistics data for important applications you should exercise extreme caution in choosing to reset a port's statistics, since all applications dependent on such statistics will be affected. |
The following are known conditions as of this version of the software release.
Multicast sources arriving at the Catalyst 3000 series via an ATM port cannot have the list of destination ports controlled by CGMP. This is a limitation of the ATM subsystem and is not planned to be fixed in any future release.
This limitation is described in detail in the CGMP section of the 2.2(1) Configuration Note.
It is not possible to run CGMP and have Address Filtering in use at the same time. CGMP will override filter table entries.
When configuring a new system to be LECS and LES+BUS, if an ATM address for the default ELAN is added before the system is rebooted, a warning message appears. The system behavior is not affected; the default ELAN comes up correctly. To avoid the warning message, reboot the system after configuring the system as LECS, LES+BUS and before assigning ATM addresses.
SNMP Sets for the LANE server MIBs, CISCO-LECS-MIB, CISCO-LES-MIB and CISCO-BUS-MIB are not supported for the 2.2(2) release.
The following conditions have been corrected with the 2.2(8) version of the software release. In addition, all corrections applied to the 2.2 and above releases are included in this release.
CSCdk13812: MAC filters do not block after a reload
CSCdk20271: Cat3000, 2.2(6): dot1dTpFdbAddress always set to zero
CSCdk56155: CDP should test for version in CDP advertisements
CSCdk78842: Cat3000 MIB2 outbound traffic counters corrupted
CSCdk82590: Console - port address table for ATM is wrong
CSCdk84827: Cat3k: GUI change of Switch/Stack Information resets the sysUpTime
CSCdk85784: Communication problems between FastEthernet (3009,3010) and ATM(3006)
CSCdk86104: Telnet - viewing CPU util screen in diag menu crashes switch
CSCdk86242: Debug - congest-debug messages show up on wrong screen
CSCdk88021: FastEthernet - switching stops after five days (Q25922)
CSCdk92962: ILMI - always send default IP addr even if it is 0.0.0.0 (R42005)
There is a possibility of packet corruption between the WS-X3009 or WS-X3010 (FastEthernet modules) and the WS-X3006 (ATM module). The problem only occurs if there is a large number (at least 120) of ATM channel data directs established. Looking at the received packets on the ATM side from a WS-X3009 or WS-X3010, you will see that the packets from these cards will have 4 or 2 extra bytes right before the MAC header.
The workaround for this problem is:
eps> EnableV17 1
An argument of 1 will enable the workaround. 0 will disable it (default is 0 [disabled]).
NOTE: Enabling this workaround will reduce the number of ATM channels available for data directs from 1913, to 1017. Enable this workaround only if you are experiencing this problem. Enabling/Disabling will automatically reset all of the ATM cards in the Stack. This command will fail if it finds any ATM card running an ATM firmware version of less than 17.
This command only needs to be entered once. You do not need to enter it at every reboot.
To disable the workaround (and get back the complete 1913 ATM channels), execute the following command at the eps> prompt:
eps> EnableV17 0
