Introduction

The ONS 15530 is a DWDM multiservice aggregation platform that maximizes the carrying capacity of fiber by performing service aggregation of protocols such as ESCON, Fibre Channel, FICON, and Gigabit Ethernet. With the Cisco ONS 15530, users can take advantage of the availability of dark fiber to build a common infrastructure that supports data, SAN (storage area network), and TDM (time-division multiplexing) traffic. For more information about DWDM technology and applications, refer to the Introduction to DWDM Technology publication and the Cisco ONS 15530 Planning Guide.

New and Changed Information

This section lists new features that appear in this and previous releases of Cisco IOS Release 12.1. The new features are sorted by release number.

New Features in Release 12.1(12c)EV2

The following new feature is available for the Cisco ONS 15530 in Cisco IOS Release 12.1(12c)EV2.

The Cisco ONS 15530 power-on diagnostics now support testing of the following components:

Cisco ONS 15530 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card

Cisco ONS 15530 8-port FC/GE aggregation card

Cisco ONS 15500 PSM (protection switch module)

New Features in Release 12.1(12c)EV1

The following new features are available for the Cisco ONS 15530 in Cisco IOS Release 12.1(12c)EV1:

Maximum number of virtual terminals increased to 41

Automatic attenuation support for WB-VOA modules

Tx-buffer size command support moved from the portgroup interface to the esconphy interfaces on the ESCON aggregation card

Supports TL1 commands


Note Only use Cisco-certified SFP optics for the extended range transponders, ESCON cards, and 8-port FC/GE aggregation cards


New Features in Release 12.1(12c)EV

The following new hardware features are available for the Cisco ONS 15530 in Cisco IOS Release 12.1(12c)EV:

The Cisco ONS 15530 8-port Fibre Channel/Gigabit Ethernet (FC/GE) aggregation card is can multiplex up to eight FC/ FICON /GE signals onto a single 10-Gbps ITU trunk card, or groups of two ports (e.g., ports 0 and 1) onto a 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card, 10-Gbps ITU trunk card, or 10-Gbps uplink cards for connectivity to another ONS 15530 or to an ONS 15540 ESPx. Pluggable transceiver modules are required for operation and up to eight are supported.

The Cisco ONS 15530 8-port FC/GE aggregation card supports the following pluggable transceiver modules:

GE/FC - 1310 nm SM - MTLC

GE/FC - 850 nm MM - 1G MTLC

The Cisco ONS 15530 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card can be used with the 10-port ESCON and 8-port FC/GE aggregation cards to support up to ten ports of ESCON or two ports of FC/FICON/GE over a 2.5-Gbps ITU wavelength. The 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card can be used in point-to-point and ring configurations.

The Cisco ONS 15500 PSM (protection switch module) allows a customer to protect the entire fiber path by splitting an optical signal from one fiber trunk into two redundant fiber paths. This offers customers a more cost effective way to achieve protection against fiber cuts in the network.

The following new software features are available for the Cisco ONS 15530 in Cisco IOS Release 12.1(12c)EV:

The Cisco ONS 15530 8-port FC/GE aggregation card interworks with the 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card, 10-Gbps ITU trunk card, or the 10-Gbps uplink card. All 8 ports of the FC/GE aggregation card can be sent over a single 10-Gbps ITU trunk/uplink or groups of 2 ports can be sent to a 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card or a 10-Gbps ITU trunk/uplink card.

The Cisco ONS 15530 supports per-channel unidirectional and bidirectional 1+1 path switching over both point-to-point and optical ring topologies for the 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card. 1+1 protection, which is similar to SONET/SDH APS (Automatic Path Switching), is a method of protection in which one optical signal drives two sets of trunk fibers. One signal is used as the active fiber pair, and the other is used as the standby fiber pair should the working path be cut. When an active signal that is protected fails or in some cases degrades, the system automatically switches from the active network path to the standby network path.

The Cisco ONS 15530 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card supports a per-wavelength management channel providing OAM&P capabilities similar to SONET/SDH in the metropolitan DWDM network. The per-wavelength management channel provides the robustness and QoS (quality of service) required for a carrier-class optical network. The management channel provides optical performance monitoring with alarm indication, along with failure isolation and protection mechanisms.

A protection switching mechanism in software allows the Cisco ONS 15500 with PSM to protect against a fiber failure on a trunk interface. Hardware and software is used to offer a 1+1 protection mechanism that is similar to the SONET APS standard. When a loss of light or a configurable level of signal degradation is detected, the software will switch from the working fiber path to the protection fiber path in less than 50 ms.

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) support for the ONS 15530 line cards (8-port FC/GE aggregation card, 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card, and PSM) and for the Cisco ONS 15540 ESPx PSM.

The Cisco ONS 15530 supports power-on diagnostics as follows:

Tests the accessibility and basic functionality of the components present at the time of system bootup.

Isolates the faults to a FRU level.

Disables/enables the power-on diagnostics tests selectively through the CLI.

Allows the user to view the power-on diagnostics results at a later time through the CLI.

New Features in Release 12.1(10)EV4

No new features are available for the Cisco ONS 15530 in Cisco IOS Release 12.1(10)EV4.

This section describes the caveats in the Cisco ONS 15530.

CSCdu53656 · ·

A Cisco device running IOS and enabled for the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DOS) attack from a malformed BGP packet. The BGP protocol is not enabled by default, and must be configured in order to accept traffic from an explicitly defined peer. Unless the malicious traffic appears to be sourced from a configured, trusted peer, it would be difficult to inject a malformed packet. BGP MD5 is a valid workaround for this problem.

Cisco has made free software available to address this problem. For more details, please refer to this advisory, available at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20040616-bgp.shtml.

CSCdw35704 · ·

Symptom: Unchecked buffer boundary in NTP.

Workaround: None.

CSCdx02980 · ·

Symptom: When the NME is connected to an auto-sensing switch or hub, going from 10 Mbps and half-duplex to 100 Mbps and half-duplex (or similarly 10 Mbps and full-duplex to 100 Mbps and full-duplex) on fastethernet0 results in the link going down.

Workaround: Configure fastethernet0 as duplex auto and speed auto.

CSCdx78717 · ·

Symptom: A change in optical threshold condition at a WB-VOA or PB-OE module power monitor might not be detected if the condition is temporary and does not last for more than a second.

Workaround: None

CSCdx83919 · ·

Symptom: If you swap the ESCON aggregation card with the 10-Gbps ITU trunk card in a given slot, the following error message is seen four times:

%BPE-3-NOT_REGISTERED: Interface[EthernetDcc9/0/0] MAC is not registered.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy01768 · ·

Symptom: The CPU switch module LED for alarms is not cleared even though the Optical Power Monitoring alarm is cleared. There is no functionality problem. On a CPU switch module switchover this alarm LED is cleared and gives the correct alarm status.

Workaround: OIR the card on which the alarm was generated.

CSCdy02850 · ·

Symptom: When both wavepatch interfaces are in an administrative down state, a low alarm does not appear on the standby wavepatch interface after a no shutdown is done on the wave interface.

Workaround: Issue the shutdown/no shutdown command sequence on the wavepatch interface.

CSCdy08228 · ·

Symptom: Interface reports up/up even when there is no light source connected.

Workaround: Issue a shutdown/no shutdown command sequence on the interface.

CSCdy20002 · ·

Symptom: A transparent interface carrying Gigabit Ethernet traffic and configured with gigabit Fibre Channel encapsulation shows a good quality signal on the show interfaces transparent command output and does not assert any ingress alarms. The wave interface asserts loss of lock and loss of sync alarms.

Workaround: OIR the transponder module to bring it to the correct state.

CSCdy20010 · ·

Symptom: LOF (loss of frame) alarms are not reasserted after a shutdown/no shutdown command sequence on both the transparent and wave interfaces on the transponder line card.

Workaround: Disable and reenable monitoring on the transparent interface to reassert the alarms.

CSCdy20022 · ·

Symptom: The show facility-alarm status command status does not report existing LoF/LoSync/LoLock alarms after an OIR.

Workaround: Disable and enable monitoring back to reassert existing alarms in the show facility-alarm status command output.

CSCdy40864 · ·

Symptom: A software compatibility problem causes the active CPU switch module to reset the standby CPU switch module.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy40882 · ·

Symptom: The show hardware command output displays information about a CPU switch module that has been removed from the system.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy46550 · ·

Symptom: Ethernetdcc and OSC wave interfaces come up with default traffic-shaping parameters. Because this is the default, by removing the configuration using the no form of the command, the parameter value should revert to the default value, which is not being done.

Workaround: Reconfigure the traffic-shaping parameters.

CSCdy49249 · ·

Symptom: If a line card that was removed prior to switchover is inserted during switchover, the line card might not come up properly.

Workaround: Insert the line card after switchover is complete.

CSCdy53288 · ·

Symptom: The system might crash at is_optical_ifstatus_up.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy59551 · ·

Symptom: Issuing a shutdown command on the active wavepatch of a nonsplitter card brings the waveethernetphy interface down and reports loss of light in the output of the show interfaces command, but traffic continues to flow.

Workaround: If the intent is to stop traffic, issue a shutdown command on the waveethernetphy interface or wave interface.

CSCdy61641 · ·

Symptom: Following a CPU switch module crash and switchover, the show redundancy command issued on the new active CPU switch module displays "Not known" for the Reported Switchover Reason field.

Workaround: Enter show version from the standby CPU switch module console to see additional information.

CSCdy63140 · ·

Symptom: The default value of the switchover-enable min-interval timer for an APS group is 3 seconds. However, this value is incorrectly stated in CISCO-APS-EXT-MIB.my as 2 seconds for the object cApsConfigSwitchoverEnableInterval, which corresponds to the switchover-enable min-interval timer.

Workaround: None

CSCdy63359 · ·

Symptom: The getnext and getbulk commands do not function properly after a CPU switch module switchover.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy65411 · ·

Symptom: AN APS trap mode mismatch takes 30 minutes for completion.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy66507 · ·

Symptom: Low alarm is not cleared on the wavepatch interface on a transponder line card.

Workaround: Issue a shutdown/no shutdown command sequence on the wavepatch interface where the alarm is seen.

CSCdy68224 · ·

Symptom: On the 10-Gbps ITU trunk card, the CDL HEC and CRC error counters are not incremented upon reaching the threshold limits.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy68257 · ·

Symptom: When trying to modify the cApsConfigSpan object through an SNMP set to an unsupported value, the value is not set but no error is reported.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy68663 · ·

Symptom: Administrative shutdown on a waveethernetphy subinterface does not take affect. The command output indicates "admin shut" but all the traffic flows through and the subinterface is fully functional.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy69086 · ·

Symptom: After removing and reconnecting the fiber cable, the active wavepatch on the transponder line card is down even after issuing an no shutdown command on the wave interface.

Workaround: Use a shutdown command to clear the alarms on the wave interface.

CSCdy72463 · ·

Symptom: Spurious memory access is seen when issuing the show tech command on the standby CPU switch module.

Workaround: None

CSCdy78546 · ·

Symptom: PTOPO configuration rows can be configured for nonexistent interfaces.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy81501 · ·

Symptom: The show connect intermediate command output does not display all the protection paths when a switch fabric cross connect is used.

Workaround: Display the information using the show connect command.

CSCdy82663 · ·

Symptom: The active CPU switch module incorrectly detects a faulty switch fabric port, causing a switchover to the standby CPU switch module.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy85125 · ·

Symptom: When copying or reading a file to or from CompactFlash (disk0), a transient error with the following message might appear and read/write access to CompactFlash is terminated:

ATA_Status timeout waiting for <1/2/3>

Workaround: None.

CSCdy85563 · ·

Symptom: Defect-indication error messages do not indicate if the defect-indication bit was cleared or asserted for that interface.

Workaround: None.

CSCdy88154 · ·

Symptom: Some interfaces are not be available to the NMS station because the agent does not create them on OIR.

Workaround: Reload the system after removal/insertion of the cards.

CSCdz00116 · ·

Symptom: APS message channel configured for UDP/IP does not work over two IP hops. The UDP/IP packets are dropped at the end of the second hop.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz02638 · ·

Symptom: Loopback interfaces cannot be deleted from configuration.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz03643 · ·

Symptom: The power-on diagnostics do not identify the 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card.

Workaround: Upgrade the system image to release 12.1(12c)EV2 or later.

CSCdz04036 · ·

Symptom: Switch fabric protection is not disabled if the standby CPU switch module is in ROM monitor mode. As a result if an RxFail is noticed on any fabric port, that fabric port switches over its receive to the standby CPU switch module.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz06004 · ·

Symptom: The redundancy reload shelf command on the active CPU switch module can cause a switchover if the peer CPU switch module is in ROM monitor mode.

Workaround: Use the reload command to reload the active CPU switch module, if the peer CPU switch module is in ROM monitor mode.

CSCdz06602 · ·

Symptom: Issuing getbulk command to retrieve PM parameters returns 0 row.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz08641 · ·

Symptom: The ciscoFlashPartitionFileCount returns an incorrect number of files on the CompactFlash card.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz08774 · ·

Symptom: No ciscoFlashDeviceChangeTrap trap is generated when a CompactFlash device is removed or inserted.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz11505 · ·

Symptom: When forward laser control is disabled on all 10 esconphy ports and they are administratively shut down, packets are still sent to the backplane.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz12139 · ·

Symptom: OPM feature does not work for nonsplitter transponder line cards.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz12200 · ·

Symptom: Invalid mac-address or ip-address values can be made via SNMP. No error check is done.

Workaround: Delete the entry through SNMP or with the topology neighbor disable command.

CSCdz13538 · ·

Symptom: Egress loss of signal alarm is not reasserted in the show facility alarm status command output after the hardware module power is turned off and turned back on.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz15649 · ·

Symptom: Incorrect alarms are reported on wavepatch interfaces when the parent wave interface is administratively shut.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz16457 · ·

Symptom: If a system is rebooted and a transient link failure condition occurs on 10-Gbps ITU trunk cards or 10-Gbps uplink cards, the system might continuously send backward defect indications.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz16522 · ·

Symptom: Error messages appear when a 10-Gbps ITU trunk card or 10-Gbps uplink card with cross connects to the switch fabric is removed.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz20508 · ·

Symptom: The wavepatch interfaces are stuck in the down state after using the shutdown/no shutdown command sequence on the wave interface with splitter APS after the trunk fiber has been cut.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz20982 · ·

Symptom: If the peer node is rebooted, the interfaces connected to that node experience some flaps in the bootup sequence. These flaps trigger unnecessary APS flaps in the near-end node.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz24314 · ·

Symptom: A Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) session reset occurs because of a notification that indicates a defective OPEN message.

Workaround: Configure only the receive or send options of the neighbor-orf prefix- filter command.

CSCdz28582 · ·

Symptom: After a fiber cut, the OSC wave interface remains up with signal quality GOOD.

Workaround: Use the shutdown/no shutdown command sequence on the OSC wave interface.

CSCdz29723 · ·

Symptom: When APS communication is down and an APS failure is detected, APS might switch over even though the communication is down resulting in a unidirectional switchover. For IBM Sysplex CLO/ETR applications, a unidirectional switchover might lead to data corruption.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz33672 · ·

Symptom: The standby CPU switch module can be stuck in trying to register control ports.

Workaround: Enter the redundancy reload peer command on the active CPU switch module.

CSCdz33752 · ·

Symptom: In bidirectional APS, if both NEs (network elements) have the same priority request, the master/slave determination fails, leading to both claiming the control and resulting in not sending a REVERSE-REQUEST.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz34105 · ·

Symptom: When a shutdown/no shutdown command sequence is done on a waveethernetphy interface that is in the up state, the signal condition shows loss of lock.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz34254 · ·

Symptom: In bidirectional line card protection, if the APS group is associated with a working interface with an invalid cross connect and protection interface with an active cross connect, APS erroneously sets the APS channel request on the working to WAIT-TO-RESTORE. This does not recover even when the working cross connect is made dormant by the connection manager. As a result both NEs are in protection until an event (that has higher priority than WTR) is triggered.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz36187 · ·

Symptom: Splitter APS protection comes up as active on system bootup.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz36234 · ·

Symptom: Dynamic discovery of topology via CDP on the tengigethernetphy interface is not configurable.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz36420 · ·

Symptom: In a preconfigured APS group (such as when the interfaces do not exist), if the group is configured for revertive mode, it cannot be enabled.

Workaround: Enable the group after the interfaces defined in the APS group are created or remove the revertive configuration from the preconfigured APS group and then enable the group.

CSCdz36823 · ·

Symptom: The CPU switch module crashes after midnight with optical performance monitoring on when an interface capable of performance monitoring is shut down before 00-00 hours and unshut after midnight.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz38508 · ·

Symptom: In unidirectional revertive APS, after online removal is followed by online insertion of working and protection elements on both NEs, the active signal might be received from the protection line instead of the working line.

Workaround: Do a manual or force switch to the working line.

CSCdz39711 · ·

Symptom: SEF errors are repeatedly asserted on the console and are not soaked.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz40904 · ·

Symptom: When an interface is shut down administratively, the show aps detail command shows the channel request as sf-lp; however, a get on the object cApsChanStatusCurrent does not reflect sf-lp in the corresponding bits.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz42349 · ·

Symptom: A connection to a different subinterface on the same 10-Gbps ITU trunk card or 10-Gbps uplink card is accepted, but a cross connection fails in the switch fabric.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz43222 · ·

Symptom: The MTU setting on the 10-Gbps ITU trunk card interface is not displayed in the show interfaces command output. Transmit side is reporting oversized frames.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz43372 · ·

Symptom: APS group is displayed as "not associated" in show aps detail command output.

Workaround: Do a shutdown/no shutdown command sequence to either or both interfaces in the APS group. This causes a state change in the interfaces. You can also perform an aps disable/aps enable command sequence to the APS group.

CSCdz43833 · ·

Symptom: Y-cable transponder protection does not come up as active after removing lockout.

Workaround: Perform an aps disable/aps enable command sequence to the APS group.

CSCdz44366 · ·

Symptom: With line card protection configured, the switch fabric on both the active CPU switch module and the standby CPU switch module are out of sync.

Workaround: Insert all the cards and perform a no connect command and then connect command.

CSCdz44515 · ·

Symptom: CDR loss of lock is not reported after Sysplex CLO/ETR encapsulation on a transparent interface.

Workaround: Perform a shutdown/no shutdown command sequence on the interface to correct the CDR loss of lock reporting.

CSCdz49152 · ·

Symptom: Tx-CRC and CDL-HEC error counters do not show the proper values in the show interfaces command output for the waveethernetphy interface.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz49229 · ·

Symptom: The power-on diagnostics do not identify the 8-port FC/GE aggregation card. After booting the following message appears:

Unexpected fru_type (0x110B) in: pod_get_namelist_num_tests

Workaround: Upgrade the system image to release 12.1(12c)EV2 or later.

CSCdz52675 · ·

Symptom: Wave interfaces see continuous flapping when the wavepatch interface on a nonsplitter card is shut.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz55350 · ·

Symptom: If two different trunk cards in the same slot are hot-swapped, the newly inserted trunk card inherits the configuration of the ethernetdcc interface from the removed trunk card.

Example: If a user swaps a 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card with a 10-Gbps ITU trunk card in the same slot, the ethernetdcc interface for the newly inserted 10-Gbps ITU trunk card inherits the ethernetdcc interface configuration from the removed 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz58566 · ·

Symptom: Wavepatch interface configurations are retained when swapping a 10-Gbps ITU trunk card, 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card, or transponder line card.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz59146 · ·

Symptom: Loss of connectivity via the ethernetdcc interface occurs when splitter protection is configured and the waveethernetphy interface is shut down while protection on the wavepatch is active and the working wavepatch is down.

Workaround: Do not shut down the waveethernetphy interface while the working wavepatch is down.

CSCdz62286 · ·

Symptom: If bidirectional nonrevertive splitter APS is configured on the 10-Gbps or 2.5-Gbps trunk cards, a simultaneous OIR of the local and remote cards might cause the APS to switch to protection wavepatch when the card comes up.

Workaround: Enable revertive mode if the working wavepatch comes up as active.

CSCdz62296 · ·

Symptom: The PSM is incorrectly recognized as an OADM module by Cisco IOS images that do not support the PSM.

Workaround: Upgrade software to release 12.1(12c)EV.

CSCdz62922 · ·

Symptom: When lockout on the protection path is removed with a signal failure on working, the splitter switches back and forth between protection and working on 2.5-Gbps and 10-Gbps splitter ITU trunk cards.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz64021 · ·

Symptom: While performing an OIR of a protection card in a y-cable configuration, the local and remote working port is flooded with CRC errors.

Workaround: Disconnect the standby branch of the y-cable during standby line card or SFP insertion.

CSCdz66093 · ·

Symptom: The 10-Gbps ITU trunk card fails during power-on diagnostics at the Quadphy loopback test (qphy-fabric-lb) and the om-fifo test.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz67967 · ·

Symptom: Update alarms and add new alarms for new cards.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz69573 · ·

Symptom: Controller type for the backplane is not displayed in the show hardware detail command output.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz69610 · ·

Symptom: The following problems might occur on 8-port FC/GE aggregation cards:

- The interface is missing from the running-configuration after the insertion of SFP. The system message for the insertion is not printed to the console.

- The interface is present in the running-configuration after the removal of SFP. The system message for the removal is not printed to the console.

Workaround: OIR the 8-port FC/GE aggregation card to recover from the problematic state.

CSCdz69676 · ·

Symptom: The show optical filter command output shows invalid information regarding the interface wavelength for filters.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz74084 · ·

Symptom: The system crashes when WB-VOA and PB-OE modules are removed.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz74531 · ·

Symptom: If the primary CPU switch module crashes due to a send break after executing POD and before booting the system image completely, the new primary CPU switch module comes up in Cisco IOS with junk entries programmed in the SII lookup tables of the 10-Gbps ITU trunk cards present in the chassis. As a result, all 10-Gbps ITU trunk cards are stuck in the decoder and the floating channels are enabled.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz75536 · ·

Symptom: Transmit failure is cleared before APS is notified of failure and does not take correct action.

Workaround: Issue a shutdown/no shutdown command sequence on the interface.

CSCdz75949 · ·

Symptom: Disconnecting a 10-port ESCON or 8-port FC/GE aggregation card from a 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk card can cause two ports to have the same flow identifier.

Workaround: Avoid assigning the same flow identifier to the ports in the portgroup.

CSCdz76545 · ·

Symptom: The gt-interrupt and interrupt0 tests on the CPU switch module fail.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz76637 · ·

Symptom: Incompatibility messages might appear on the standby processor card when upgrading images on the active processor card.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz76792 · ·

Symptom: The WB-VOA module functional image version is different in the show hardware and show controllers command outputs.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz76891 · ·

Symptom: On a splitter APS switchover based on a CVRD SF condition, the SF threshold exceeded count is not incremented. There is also no log or event on the console that differentiates between switches overdue to CVRD SF or loss of lock.

Workaround: None.

CSCdz76991 · ·

Symptom: If a card with a bad IDPROM is detected in the system, the system crashes during bootup or online insertion.

Workaround: None.

CSCea28131 · ·

A Cisco device running IOS and enabled for the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DOS) attack from a malformed BGP packet. The BGP protocol is not enabled by default, and must be configured in order to accept traffic from an explicitly defined peer. Unless the malicious traffic appears to be sourced from a configured, trusted peer, it would be difficult to inject a malformed packet. BGP MD5 is a valid workaround for this problem.

Cisco has made free software available to address this problem. For more details, please refer to this advisory, available at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20040616-bgp.shtml.

CSCea34432 · ·

Symptom: If a timer is rebooted and the CLO link is up and running, the link briefly turns off the lasers. This is seen as loss of light and the FLC turns off the transmitter laser on the transponder line card. When the timer is back on, the FLC does not turn the transmitter laser on.

Workaround: Issue the shutdown/no shutdown command sequence or OIR the card.

CSCea44648 · ·

Symptom: If the connect command is executed, which results in traffic intermixing between ESCON/ Fibre Channel/ FICON and Gigabit Ethernet/ ESCON/Fibre Channel/FICON, traffic might slow down if the proper preconfiguration commands are not configured for the corresponding line cards.

Workaround: Configure the required preconfiguration commands.

CSCea45557 · ·

Symptom: BDI-E (Backward Defect Indication) is asserted on FC/GE interfaces when there is no remote Tx fault. This does not affect functionality.

Workaround: None

CSCea46181 · ·

Symptom: After a CPU switch module switchover, persistent alarms on an administratively shut interface might be erroneously reported when they exist. When a port interface is administratively down, alarm conditions should not be reported for that interface even though they exist.

Workaround: After a CPU switch module switchover, issue a no shutdown/shutdown command sequence on the already administratively shut interfaces. This ceases to report alarm conditions persistent on the administratively shut interfaces.

CSCea46938 · ·

Symptom: If an ESCON aggregation card cross connected to a 10-Gbps ITU trunk card is removed and reserved flow identifier configured, reserved flow identifiers are not removed.

Workaround: OIR the 10-Gbps ITU trunk card to clear the flow identifiers.

CSCea46997 · ·

CSCea48320 · ·

Symptom: After a CPU switch module switchover, if the no shutdown command is issued on the OSC wave interface, it is in the UP state even when the OSC module is not connected to the OADM module.

Workaround: Issue the shutdown/no shutdown command sequence on the OSC wave interface.

CSCea48333 · ·

Symptom: APS state is not correct after an online removal and reinsertion of the local ESCON aggregation card. This happens only if the following sequence of events occurs:

1. Shut down of the remote laser (working path)

2. Removal of the ESCON aggregation card (local)

3. Shut down of the local laser (working path)

4. Insertion of the ESCON aggregation card (local)

After the local ESCON aggregation card is reinserted, the protection waveethernetphy interface does not become active. At this point, the working interface is active even though it is in the down state.

Workaround: Remove and reinsert the protection and working 2.5-Gbps ITU trunk cards.

CSCea49205 · ·

Symptom: The 10-Gbps ITU trunk card waveethernetphy interface does not come up after the peer laser is turned back on after a CPU switch module switchover. This happens only if a laser shut is carried across the CPU switch module switchover on the local system.

Workaround: Issue a shutdown/no shutdown command sequence on the local waveethernetphy interface

CSCea49400 · ·

Symptom: If a Cisco ONS 15530 system with a 7.x hardware version of the 10-Gbps ITU trunk card is booted with the ons15530-i-mz.121-12c.ev image, the following warning displays:

CSCin42792 · ·

Symptom: The system reloads during power-on diagnostics with the 8-port FC/GE aggregation card POD configurations and when booted with 12.1(12c)EV1 or earlier. This issue is not seen with the 12.1(12c)EV2 release that support POD for 8-port FC/GE aggregation card.

Workaround: Disable the power-on diagnostics in ROM monitor mode by setting POD_DISABLE=yes. Remove the power-on diagnostic configuration for the 8-port FC/GE aggregation card before reload or switchover.

Limitations and Restrictions

This section provides limitations and restrictions for Cisco ONS 15530 hardware and software.

Transponder Line Cards

This section contains limitations and restrictions that apply to transponder line cards.

CRC errors might occur with 2-Gbps Fibre Channel on single-mode transponders when high input power levels are received from the client laser sources.

Data errors or link-down conditions for 2-Gbps Fibre Channel might occur when used with certain client laser sources. Transmitters in some client GBIC and SFP transceiver units might send large overshoots in optical power with signal bit transitions, causing momentary overload conditions on the transponder client side receiver. The average transmitted power level from the GBIC does not violate the overload specification of the transponder client side receiver, so a power meter does not detect the overload.

The workaround is to attenuate the signal from the client equipment to a recommended level of -12 dBm when transmitting 2-Gbps Fibre Channel services.

Error-free transmission of some D1 video signals (defined by the SMPTE 259M standard) and test patterns (such as Matrix SDI) cannot be guaranteed by the Cisco 15500 Series because of the pathological pattern in D1 video. This well-known limitation is usually overcome by the D1 video equipment vendor, who uses a proprietary, second level of scrambling. No standards exist at this time for the second level of scrambling.

CPU Switch Modules

This section contains limitations and restrictions that apply to transponder modules.

If both CPU switch modules are removed, all aggregation cards, OSC modules, transponder line cards, ITU trunk cards, and uplink cards are shut down.


Note Traffic on pass through optical channels (which passively pass through the OADM modules) are not affected by the removal of the processor cards.
