1. This release introduces four new commands in BPX:
2. There are changes in the following commands starting from this release:
3. The multiple partitions introduces 2 VSI partitions on trunk and port interfaces on the BXM card. So, one partition can be used for MPLS, one can be used for PNNI. Virtual Trunk can have only one VSI partition or can be used for AutoRoute, but cannot be used for both VSI and AutoRoute simultaneously. This project introduces 6 service class templates in addition to the 3 existing templates.
Even though tag ABR is supported in SCT, the MPLS controller and the BXM firmware currently do not support this.
The configurable VPI/VCI introduces 2 new parameters in addctrlr and addshelf commands, through which the user can specify the VPI and VCI of the master-slave control channels.
4. There is a change in the reporting of port group numbers in this release. The previous image (MEC) of BXM firmware reported 1 port group for the 2 port group cards at the channel stats level 2 and 3. This made the port belonging to 2nd port group unusable.
After upgrading to 9.2.30 software and then burning BXM card with the MED firmware, the BXM will report 2 port groups for 2 port cards all the time. The smooth transition between the earlier 1 port group and the newly reported 2 port groups also displays the following message when the dspcd command is executed:
"Inconsistency with logical PG #" (port group number).
All earlier software will mismatch the card.
If the BXM card is programmed with firmware revision MEC or earlier, Channel Stats level 2 or 3 will report 1 port group. Burning a MED image will result in 2 port groups but for backward compatibility the software will not do the re-computation of LCNs based on the new port groups. This will not impact the Auto Route connections in its logical database.
For VSI controller the reported value will be higher than the actual available LCNs. That means a VSI controller may not be able to add a connection even though the available connection count is non zero. If the user wishes to remove the above discrepancy, he has to bring the card to the standby mode.
Note that the newly configured card or the card in standby mode programmed with MED image brought to the active state will not have the above discrepancy.
5. In BPX nodes that use processor cards with 32Meg of RAM, it is possible to run out of memory in the Hitless Region. This can happen if the node is too heavily configured with cards and connections. The recommendation below should prevent memory aborts.
In nodes that have processor cards with 64Meg of RAM, there should be no Hitless Region memory problem. This is because 64Meg processors contain a second Hitless Region, which is larger than the first.
The following calculation will help prevent memory aborts on BPX processors with 32Meg. For simplicity, the numbers are approximate. It is necessary to add up the number of cards in the node, as well as the number of connections, and make sure that the total does not exceed the recommendation.
During system initialization, roughly 17,100 blocks of the available 40,000 are used for the card database.
In addition, assume that 1500 blocks will be needed for each BXM card that can support 16K conns, which is the more common configuration. Some BXM cards can support 32K conns, and these will need 3000 blocks of the Hitless Region. This chunk of memory is allocated at the insertion of the BXM card and will not be released until a card of different card type is inserted.
Also, 300 blocks will be needed for each 1000 via connections on the node. This can be viewed with the user command dspload.
17100 blocks for card database
1500 blocks for EACH BXM that supports 16K conns
3000 blocks for EACH BXM that supports 32K conns
300 blocks for EACH 1000 conns
-----------------------------------------------------------------
40000 blocks maximum total (34000 blocks for 9.2 releases up to 9.2.23)
6. The minimum software and firmware versions required to run MPLS are:
7. The 16K connections feature increases the number of connections terminating on the BPX switch to 16,000. The count includes connections terminating on BXM or ASI endpoints on cards within the node as well as connections terminating on service modules in the feeder shelves connected to the BPX switch. For example, a Frame Relay connection that originates on a FRSM in an MGX 8220 connected to a BPX counts as one of the 16,000 terminated connections on that BPX.
This feature requires a BCC-3-64 or BCC-4 controller in the BPX as well as switch software 9.2.10 or higher.
8. Version 2.2 of the VSI (Virtual Switch Interface) provides the BPX switch with the ability to support multiple network protocols and multiple controllers per switch (e.g., MPLS, PNNI, etc.). Switch resources can be dedicated to a specific controller or shared by multiple controllers.
This feature is supported on BXM ports, trunks, and virtual trunks and requires a BCC-3-64 or BCC-4 controller in the BPX as well as switch software 9.2.10 or higher and BXM firmware MEA or higher.
Following are the VSI features:
9. The combinations of system limits such as number of trunks, lines, ports, and connections as well as enabled TFTP interval statistics should be provisioned so that the node has at least 50% idle time usage. Use the command dspprfhist to verify.
10. When cost based routing is used, increasing the cost of a trunk will result in deleting the preferred path on connections in the database if the sum of the preferred path cost exceeds the actual sum of configured connection cost. The connections will remain routed on its current path.
11. On the BXM and UXM, for the OC-3 MultiMode Fiber backcards, Y-Redundancy/hot standby is not supported due to a hardware restriction.
12. The trunk reconfiguration feature does not support IMA trunks.
13. HDM to UVM interworking for Nx64K connections is not supported in this release.
1. The earliest release supported for graceful upgrade is 9.1.03.
2. When UXM cards are to be used, certain legacy card firmware must be upgraded before upgrading to this release. See the compatibility matrix for cards affected and the exact versions to be used.
| Caution Failure to follow this procedure may result in the card not operating. The card should be returned to Cisco if this occurs. |
Step 1 Verify current boot code version.
In order to run Model B firmware on an UXM, the card needs to be running boot code revision 6 or greater. To determine the boot code running on the card, issue the following command from the CLI (you must be logged in as Service level or greater to use this command):
rsh <slot #> sys version
Step 2 Upgrade the UXM's boot code if necessary.
The process for loading boot code is exactly the same process you would use to load firmware. The only part which changes is the name of the file.
Step 3 Upgrade the UXM's firmware.
Step 4 When Y-redundant trunks are used, the red alarm in/out values must be configured to 1.25/1.5 seconds or greater, or else INVMUX failures will occur and trunk failures will be observed during a Y-redundancy switchover. Use the following command:
cnftrkparm
This is due to the IMA protocol and may cause re-route of connections.
Step 5 Upgrade NPM software to 9.2.
Step 1 Download and burn UXM bootcode version 06 or later to all UXMs in the network. This will cause the card to reset and reroute traffic to other trunks.
Step 2 On IGX to have firmware upgrade, issue command cnffunc 15 d to disable the UXM from resetting automatically after the firmware is burned in.
Step 3 On each MGX-8220 equipped with IMATM-B, upgrade the ASC to 5.0.10
Step 4 Download the Forum Compliant-Firmware version imatm_5.0.10.fw but do NOT reset IMATM-B card
Step 5 On each IGX-UXM with IMA to be upgrade, burn firmware A.B.E or later to each UXM with IMA trunks.
Step 6 Simultaneously reset the card at each end of each IMA trunk to minimize trunk outage.
Step 7 Upgrade 9.1 nodes to 9.2 via loadrev and runrev
Step 8 Issue the command cnffunc 15 e after each IGX is upgraded to 9.2.20 or later
The above procedure also applies to the UXME.
Step 1 Download and burn UXM bootcode version 06 or later to all UXMs in the network. This will cause the card to reset and reroute traffic to other trunks.
Step 2 On IGX to have firmware upgraded, issue command cnffunc 15 d to disable the UXM from resetting automatically after the firmware is burned in.
Step 3 On each IGX-UXM with IMA to be upgraded, burn firmware A.B.E or later to each UXM with IMA trunks.
Step 4 Simultaneously reset the card at each end of each IMA trunk to minimize trunk outage.
Step 5 Upgrade 9.1 nodes to 9.2 via loadrev and runrev.
Step 6 Issue the command cnffunc 15 e after each IGX is upgraded to 9.2.20 or later.
To enable BXM cards to utilize 9.2 features, all BXM cards must be upgraded to 9.2 firmware release.
The following steps should be taken:
Step 1 Upgrade BXM's firmware
Step 2 Upgrade BCC software to 9.2
Please consult your Support Representative before performing any software upgrade.
Step 1 Upgrade the Tag Switch Controller (TSC)
The TSC is upgraded to CoS VSI Version capable release [IOS 12.05(T)]. This image is VSI bilingual, meaning it understands both VSI Version 1 and Version 2.
Step 2 Upgrade the BXMs
All the BXM cards in the node are upgraded to Revision E, which is VSI Version 2 and CoS capable. After each BXM card is downloaded with the Revision E image, it temporarily experiences VSI outage until the BCC software is upgraded to the 9.2.20 image. The VSI outage during the upgrade is caused by the Revision E firmware not being backward compatible with VSI Version 1 features.
Note that from the TSC perspective, after a BXM is upgraded to Revision E image the interfaces that used to be on the card will "disappear." The TDP sessions that were on the interfaces will be lost. When all the BXMs are upgraded to the Revision E while still running Release 9.1 software on the BCC, the node will experience a complete outage of MPLS traffic. Autoroute will have a hitless upgrade.
Step 3 Upgrade the BCC
As the BCC is upgraded from software Release 9.1 to Release 9.2.20, the BCC recognizes the Revision E BXMs and downloads the VSI partition configuration. This causes the BXMs to issue ifc cfg traps to the TSC, allowing the TSC to rediscover all the BPLS interfaces on the BPX. The TDP sessions are reestablished and BPLS traffic starts flowing again through the BPX.
Version Interoperating upgrades are supported from the 9.1 to 9.2 releases of switch software, with Secondary Revision Incorporation for Network Lowest Revision. This will lessen the risk of new features being enabled in a mixed network after the downgrade.
The "Secondary Revision" field in the node is used for the determination of the network lowest revision. Previous to this change, software used only the node's primary revision. The interoperability functionality uses network lowest revision for:
For a complete list of firmware versions supported, see the Compatibility Matrix document, which is included in this release package.
All processor cards must be configured with a minimum of 32 MB of RAM. This includes BCCs and NPMs. NPMs require at least 1 MB of BRAM. To verify the BRAM size on IGX 8400 nodes, use the dspcd command.
As specified below, the correct version of CC boot firmware must be installed on the cards prior to a software upgrade to Release 9.2.
| BCC Type | Firmware |
|---|---|
BCC-32 | H.B.J |
BCC-3-32 | H.C.M |
BCC-3-64 | H.D.M |
BCC-4V | H.H.M |
| NPM Type | Firmware |
|---|---|
NPM-32 | R.B.S |
NPM-64 | R.C.S |
NPM-32B | R.E.S |
NPM-64B | R.F.S |
When upgrading the boot code on the NPM, perform the following steps:
Step 1 Burn the boot code on the active NPM (1)
Step 2 Execute the switchcc command and wait until the NPM(1) becomes standby. NPM(2) is now active.
Step 3 Execute the resetcd command to reset the standby (resetcd 1 h). Wait until NPM(1) becomes standby.
Step 4 Burn the boot code on the active NPM(2)
Step 5 Execute the switchcc command and wait until the NPM(2) becomes standby. NPM(1) is now active.
Step 6 Execute the resetcd command to reset the NPM(2) once it becomes standby (resetcd 1 h).
Each redundant pair of BCC cards in a given BPX 8600 node must be of the identical type and memory configuration. That is, for example, if the active card is a BCC-3-32, then so must be the standby. BCC-3 cards with 32MB of RAM cannot be mixed with BCC-3 cards with 64MB of RAM.
Each redundant pair of NPM cards in a given IGX 8400 node must be of the identical type and memory configuration. That is, for example, if the active card is an NPM-32, then so must be the standby. NPM cards with 32MB of RAM cannot be mixed with NPM cards with 64MB of RAM. Also, NPM-64 cards cannot be mixed with NPM-64B cards.
This is a requirement for all software upgrade and downgrade procedures. It does not apply to the physical card upgrade procedure, as described below.
When performing a Control Card (CC) upgrade, the following procedure must be used. This applies to all processors: BCCs, and/or NPMs.
Step 1 Remove the current standby CC front card. (For a BCC, also remove the backcard).
Step 2 Replace with a new CC front card. (For a BCC, also replace the backcard).
Step 3 Wait for the standby updates on the newly installed standby CC to complete.
Step 4 Issue a switchcc command to utilize the newly installed CC.
Step 5 Verify that the network is stable.
Step 6 Remove the current standby CC front card. (For a BCC, also remove the backcard).
Step 7 Replace with a new CC front card that is identical to the current active CC. (For a BCC, also replace the backcard).
Step 8 Wait for the standby updates on the newly installed standby CC to complete.
Step 9 The CC physical upgrade is now complete.
Step 10 With the secondary card in the standby state, cause a switchover using the switchcc command. This will test that the hardware is working correctly.
The following features are not supported in this release:
1. Out Of Band LAN IP address
Out of band communication to non-gateway nodes from the CWM workstation is not supported.
2. OAM loopback in IGX and BPX
1. Switch Software Release 9.2 is not compatible with UXM Firmware Model A.
2. If attempting to burn UXM firmware Model B into a UXM with firmware Model A while running 9.2 software, the firmware Model B will not be burned into the UXM card due to the incompatibility of software 9.2 and UXM Firmware Model A. The UXM has to be returned to Cisco for service.
3. If using M.E.D BXM firmware, 9.2.30 software has to be upgraded first and then, after burning the BXM card with the MED firmware, the BXM will report 2 port groups for 2 port cards all the time. The smooth transition between the earlier 1 port group and the newly reported 2 port groups also displays message in dspcd "Inconsistency with logical PG #" (port group number). All earlier software will mismatch the card.
4. Firmware MED and earlier supports APS Redundancy on Legacy BXM only.
5. Firmware MED and later supports APS Redundancy for both Legacy and Enhanced BXM.
6. Because of a hardware limitation, BXM hardware is not able to recognize all user programmed cell transmission rates. Rather only discrete transmission rates can be used instead.
The equation below shows what the BXM hardware actually transmits given a user configured cell rate. The transmitted cell rate is always less than or equal to the configured cell rate. To prevent any cell loss, the transmitted cell rate must be equal to the configured rate. To do so, a cell rate must be chosen from the table below.
The rate table below lists the highest 200 cell rates supported be BXM such that if used, will result in no cell loss (given cell traffic is less than configured cell rate). Additional rates can be calculated using 1470588/[n + (1/256)], where n is an integer.
The logic to calculate the actual cell transmission rate in a BXM card is as followed:
if (configured cell rate == full line cell rate) then
transmitted cell rate = full line cell rate
else
transmitted cell rate = from equation below or from table below

Example:
If a trunk is configured at 100,000 cps, the actual transmitted cell rate is then 98,013 cps, any traffic sent over 98,013 cps would be discarded.
If a trunk is configured at 98,013 cps, then the actual transmitted cell rate is 98,013 cps with no cell loss.
Therefore, only the rates in the following table should be used. Otherwise, cell loss may be experienced. Rates higher than those shown in the table below can be computing from the above equation.

7. On a BPX with MGX 8220 feeder(s), regardless of the setting of the Node Parameter "42 Enable Feeder Alert", a feeder alert message will be sent to all MGX 8220 feeders immediately before a hitless rebuild takes place. The feeder alert message will temporarily disable the LMI polling from the MGX 8220 feeders. The MGX 8220 polling will resume as soon as the BPX is ready to exchange LMI messages.
8. The amount of traffic allowed on a VP Tunneling connection is 1/2 bandwidth of that connection. The minimum bandwidth must be 100 cells per second. For example, CBR connection with peak cell rate 1000 cps then can pass traffic up to 500 cps.
9. For IMA trunks, the configuration is blocked if the converted cps (cells per second) of the number of links to be decremented is MORE than the transmit rate. (CSCdm71616)
10. Card errors (0x25170076) occur on BXM when only one Virtual Trunk is configured in a physical port. To avoid this situation, configure at least 2 Virtual Trunks on any physical port that you have VTs on. When performing the configuration, make sure to configure the VTs one directly after the other. (CSCdm69974)
1. Switch Software 9.2.30 and BXM firmware MEF support the attachment of multiple VSI controllers to the BPX. In case of MPLS, however, only one LSC should be attached to the BPX. If multiple LSCs are attached to the BPX, the results are unpredictable.
2. Switch Software 9.2.30 and BXM firmware MFB support the attachment of multiple VSI controllers to the BPX. In case of MPLS, however, only one LSC should be attached to the BPX. If multiple LSCs are attached to the BPX, the results are unpredictable.
3. For UVM cards, there will be no new revisions of Model A firmware. When attempting to download Model A firmware to a UVM, software will give the user an error message indicating that the firmware does not match the card type. Note that there is no problem with continuing to use existing UVM cards running the old firmware. (CSCdp08741)
4. For a virtual trunk on a BXM/UXM, the Transmit Trunk Rate (the transmit rate of the virtual trunk) is configurable to match the PCR value of the subscribed public VPC service. In this release, the actual shaping rate for a virtual trunk is higher than the configured Transmit Trunk Rate (CSCdm80482). The actual virtual trunk shaping rates are 1/(n x 680 x 10-9) cells per second, where n is an integer from 1 to 29,411. In this release, the user configured Transmit Trunk Rate is rounded to the next higher (as opposed to lower) actual shaping rate for shaping.
To configure a virtual trunk so that the actual shaping rate is no greater than the PCR value of the subscribed public VPC service, the following steps can be taken:
Step 1 Determine the n such that 1/(n x 680 x 10-9) cps (the actual shaping rate) is no greater than the PCR value of the subscribed public PVC service. For example, if the PCR value of the subscribed public PVC service is 10 Mbps or 23,585 cps, the n will be 63 and the actual shaping rate is 23,342.67 cps.
Step 2 Configure the Transmit Trunk Rate for the virtual trunk to be less than 1/(n x 680 x 10-9) cps but greater than 1/((n+1) x 680 x 10-9) cps. For example, if the PCR value of the subscribed public VPC service is 10 Mbps or 23,585 cps, configure the Transmit Trunk Rate for the virtual trunk to be less than 1/(63 x 680 x 10-9)=23,342.67 cps but greater than 1/(64 x 680 x 10-9)=22,977.94 cps.
5. There is a new traffic class added in release 9.2.20 that causes a trunk parameter conflict with pre-9.2.20 node. The conflict fails adding trunks between 9.2.20 BTM/ATM nodes and pre- 9.2.20 BTM/ATM nodes.
All ATM traffic classes are set for BTM/ALM trunks and is hidden to user. Introducing of rt-VBR traffic class in 9.2.20 makes it different from pre-9.2.20 BTM/ALM trunk traffic class. The user can not change ATM traffic class for BTM/ALM trunk.
This problem exists with a new BTM/ALM trunk on an upgraded 9.2.20 node and does not exist with an upgraded BTM/ALM trunk since the rt-VBR traffic class is not set while upgrading. (CSCdm64345)
6. The cloud port to which a virtual trunk is connected should have ILMI polling disabled. Otherwise, it could lead to a virtual trunk being clear on one end and declaring Virtual Trunk Path Failure at the other end. (CSCdm52909)
7. In a BPX that contains BCC cards with 64MB, there is no limitation. All 12 available slots can contain BXM or Enhanced-BXM cards.
In a BPX that contains BCC cards with 32MB, a maximum of 10 legacy BXM cards are allowed. If some Enhanced-BXM cards are used in place of BXM cards, then each Enhanced-BXM will count as two BXM cards.
8. Due to performance reasons, AIS status of connections is not sent to the standby BCC. After switchcc, it may take few minutes to update the AIS status of connections. If dspcon does not show the proper status of AIS or dspalms screen shows incorrect number of AIS, (after switchcc) wait for few minutes so that the status gets updated. (dspalms and dspcon commands show the status of AIS).
9. Hitless Rebuild has similar limitations to that of a "switchcc" and full rebuild:
10. UVM cards in y-redundancy will mismatch if one is burned with Idle Code Suppression Firmware and the other is not.
When installing/burning Idle Code Suppression Firmware on UVM pairs, the y-redundancy must be removed, firmware in both UVM cards burned, and then the y-redundancy can be restored.
11. Mismatch is reported when replacing a BXM card with another BXM card that has different Port Group, even though both BXM cards have identical channel numbers.
12. When upgrading from release 9.1 to 9.2, the 9.1 statistics on UXM cards are supported to maintain compatibility. However, once you configure a statistics level in 9.2, you can not revert back to 9.1 statistics.
There is no 9.1 statistics support for BXM/UXM cards that were shipped with 9.2 firmware since the BXM/UXM card has the default level 1 statistics.
Therefore, when using an UXM card with 9.2, a user must either:
13. The BXM and UXM channel statistics level feature gives these cards the capability of collecting more than 4 statistics per connection. However, it is the controller card's limitations, available memory and performance, that indicates how many statistics can actually be collected from the cards and then reported to the Cisco WAN Manager (CWM).
The BCC-64 can collect at most three (3) interval statistics per connection when there are 16,000 AutoRoute (AR) connections configured on the node. (Interval statistics are those statistics that are reported to the CWM. They are often referred to as TFTP statistics).
You can collect approximately 48,000 statistics (3 x 16,000) on the BCC-64. This is approximate because there are many variables that will affect this value such as: are peaks enabled, how many buckets are collected, are all connection of the same type, are trunk, line or port stats enabled, etc.
With this approximation of 48,000 statistics on the BCC-64, this then means that as a rough estimate you could enable 32 stats on 1,500 connections, 48 stats on 1,000 connections or 9 stats on 5,000 connections, etc. The approximation formula being:
max_stats_per_connection = 48,000 / number_of_connections.
14. In release 9.1, the UXM card ran a proprietary IMA communication protocol. This protocol matched that used on the MGX 8220 4 IMATM-B cards and hence could be connected together to form a trunk. In release 9.2, we now support standards compliant IMA on the UXM card and the standards compliant IMATM-B on MGX 8220 5.0 is not yet released. Hence, when the network is upgraded to 9.2.20, the UXM will be running compliant IMA protocol and the IMATM-B will still be running the proprietary IMA communication protocol. They will no longer communicate and the trunk will fail. This will be fixed in the MGX 8220 5.0 release containing IMATM-B. However, it should be noted that an upgrade at that time will also incur some amount of downtime as there will be a difference in timing between the MGX 8220 upgrade and the switch software upgrade. There should be no effect to UXM-IMA trunks connected to other UXM-IMA trunks in 9.1 to 9.2 interoperability mode.
15. We allow the transmit rate on an IGX IMA trunk to be altered at the local node with any trunk outage. It is possible that the transmit rates are different at the two ends of an IMA trunk. After this trunk is deleted, we cannot add it back unless the transmit rates are the same.
16. When doing a grouped upgrade from release 9.1 to 9.2, the software error 1427 may be logged on the BPX/IGX node during non-graceful upgrade. This error can be ignored since it is harmless to the network.(CSCdm14613)
17. Reconfiguring trunk parameters may cause connection to be rerouted if the changed bandwidth load is smaller than what was used by the connections that use the trunk.
18. If LMI/ILMI is provided by the BCC:
The maximum possible number of ports on the BPX 8600 that can be configured with LMI/ILMI enabled is 52. However, each BPX will support up to a total of 16 feeder trunks and each feeder trunk will have LMI enabled. That is, if a BPX 8600 is configured with only 2 feeder trunks, then only (52 - 2) = 50 ports can have LMI/ILMI enabled.
If LMI/ILMI is provided by the BXM firmware:
19. Virtual Path Connections with cells whose VCI values are above 4095 will be transmitted correctly if and only if the path is exclusively through BXM trunks and terminates at BXM ports.
20. The feature of CIR=0 for Frame Relay connections is not supported for connections terminating between FRM cards in IPX/IGX nodes and FRSM cards in an MGX 8220 shelf.
21. SVC Connections are derouted after decreasing the allocated bandwidth (increasing Stat Reserve). It is the design intent that increasing the statistical reserve will cause SVC conns to deroute and not be rerouted.(See bug CSCst92308).
22. For the loadrev operation, it is important that the Cisco WAN Manager/TFTP buffers are maintained at their default size.
23. Due to a hardware limitation, the BNI trunk will send 13 -15% more traffic than what it is configured for when the trunk is configured for less speed (cps) than the maximum port speed. This is especially important when the BNI trunk is connected to IM-ATM pairs, which carry less than T3 bandwidth.
24. When using the shift/no-shift feature on a BPX 8600 node's port card, controlled via the cnfport command, the other end of the connection must have the same setting. Otherwise, there will be a loss of continuity.
25. If the Stat Reserve field on a trunk is dramatically increased to a value which represents a significant majority of the total trunk bandwidth, then, if connections are present on the trunk, the dspload command will show negative values. This is to signify that the trunk is oversubscribed. The trunk load values will eventually reach 0, or a small positive number after all the necessary connections are routed off that trunk. (CSCdi84878)
26. When deleting trunks, there is a known limitation with the switch software. The deltrk command should always be executed on the node that remains as part of the network, rather than from the node which ends up being removed from the network. This is to ensure that all the necessary updates are sent to the rest of the network. (CSCdi85134). Also, If the command is not used as recommended here, a software error 419 could occur (CSCdi91285).
27. Due to Trunk Based Loading, any commands having to do with trunk loading and the load model (dspload chklm dsplm, etc.) need to be done only after waiting a certain period of time. This time is directly a function of the trunk load update interval time (as configurable) plus the conditional update latency time.
28. The external ABR segment control loop on ForeSight (ABRFST) is an option at the User Interface, but is not supported in hardware. The user should not enable this option on ForeSight connections (CSCdi92451). In any case, there is no coupling between the loops.
29. On a heavily loaded BPX 8600 node, during connection re-routing, the status of a particular connection is indicated as OK even though the line status of the other end of the connection is listed as failed. The connection is in fact OK, because the conditioning of the connection (to update the status for both ends) is done by a low-priority process so that the re-routing of the connections can be given high priority. The status will be eventually updated. (CSCdj10762)
30. A node whose number is greater than 63 cannot have a clrcnf operation performed on it. This is as designed. A clrallcnf can be done, or the node must be renumbered to less than 63 before running clrcnf. (CSCdj14920)
31. The interface between a BXM feeder trunk and an MGX 8220 feeder is always considered to be an NNI interface. (CSCdj16808)
32. When adding more than 4000 connections on a BPX node, the VC polling rate must be changed to a higher interval, to accommodate the additional time needed to poll for the statistics for each VC. The cnfsysparm command, parameter 24 must be changed according to the following:
0-3999 connections | Polling Rate: 5 Minutes (or higher) | |
4000-7999 connections | Polling Rate: 10 Minutes (or higher) | |
>8000 connections | Polling Rate: 15 Minutes | |
33. Given a connection that terminates on an IGX 8400 FRM at one end and an ASI on the other end, tstdelay initiated at the FRM end may not work if the ASI firmware is below the appropriate revision and does not support OAM cells as opposed to supervisory cells. This is because the updated BTM on the IGX will always generate OAM cells. Please check the Compatibility Matrix.
34. Because the detailed card error event log is not retained within BRAM, this information will be lost should a processor rebuild occur. Therefore, when issuing a dspcderrs command on a particular slot, the display will not show the detailed card error information should rebuild event occur. This functionality has not been modified from previous releases.
35. When a physical-layer failure (for example, LOS) is detected on the BXM, a Major Alarm is generated, and any connection routed over that port is downed (Fail state). The software sends a command to the remote end of the connection to generate AIS in the egress direction. (CSCdj30543).
Impact:
Since the connection is in a failed state, AIS is generated in the upstream direction (in addition to the downstream direction). Although this does conform to the letter of the I.610 standard, this is not necessarily what a user would expect to see, because it interferes with the RDI response from the end-to-end connection termination point. (A fault in the downstream direction causes a fault in the upstream direction.)
Reason for the current implementation:
The BNI can not generate AIS. If there is a fault at a BNI trunk, the current mechanism is to cause AIS to be generated by the BXM port by downing the connection. Since the BXM can only generate OAM cells from the RCMP, and the RCMP is in the ingress path, the cells must be backward routed to the egress (egress QE). Also, since end-to-end OAM cells are required, the ingress QE must be configured to drop ALL cells in the ingress path. This creates a break in continuity in the opposite direction, and AIS cells must also be generated at the other end of the same connection, in the upstream direction of the original fault.
36. There are problems in the downgrade mechanism which can cause database corruption. If downgrade is performed immediately after upgrading, the Stby_Info revision fields are not yet filled in on the new active CC. They don't get filled in until the upcard response from the new locked CC. This causes restart instead of a switchcc. If the locked CC is reset, then downgrade immediately, a restart will occur instead of a switchcc. (CSCdj30811).
37. In order to test/simulate the Y-redundant switchover of ASI T3 or E3 pairs the resetcd command must be used, or by pulling out the active card. It will not be correctly simulated by doing a dncd (down card) on the active card. Using dncd will cause cell discards. (CSCdj08923).
38. BXM cards can support 32K PVC's only when no stats are collected. If collecting 4 stats per PVC is desired, the number of PVC's per BXM card drops to 16K. (CSCdj31773).
39. UBR traffic gains an advantage over ABR traffic when UBR and ABR PVC's are combined on the same network. This is because UBR and ABR PVC's share the same QBIN (Class of Service Queue) on the BXM card. ABR PVC's use a flow control mechanism, VSVD, which ensures that traffic sources slow down when the QBIN usage exceeds the EFCI threshold. However, UBR PVC's do not have this throttling mechanism. Therefore, ABR will throttle back whereas UBR will not. This unfair advantage is not considered a problem, since the decision to share a QBIN for ABR and UBR traffic was intentional. Any best-effort service that one would route over UBR can be routed over ABR(VSVD), with the additional benefit of protecting resources in the network. If UBR and ABR PVC's are required then:
Option 1 - Consider adding all best-effort PVC's as UBR, or
Option 2 - Isolate the ABR and UBR paths by using cnfpref command to ensure that ABR and UBR PVC's do not share the same queues.
Option 3 - To provide UBR service on a connection, rather than setting up a UBR connection, do the following:
Step 1 Set up an ABRSTD connection
Step 2 Enable VSVD
Step 3 Disable FCES (Flow Control External Segment)
Step 4 Disable DEFAULT EXTENDED PARAMETERS
Step 5 Choose policing option "4" to allow access as UBR.1 (PCR policing only). This connection has ABR VSVD in the network and allows UBR.1 access. The MCR for such ABRSTD connection may be set at the minimum acceptable value of 6 cell per second (explained later why doing so).
40. Combining FBTC and non-FBTC connections within a Class of Service can cause FBTC connections to not receive a fair share of bandwidth. For example, if VBR connections are added at a terminating port, and some of these VBR connections have FBTC enabled while other VBR connections have FBTC disabled, the VBR connections with FBTC disabled may obtain all of the excess bandwidth before the connections with FBTC enabled receive any of the excess bandwidth. The same holds true for ABR or UBR connections. This only is relevant where FBTC and non-FBTC connections share a QBIN, either at a port or at a trunk.
41. The maximum number of VC Parameters supported: 749 for BCC-32 MB, 2,999 for BCC-64 MB. (CSCdj48589).
VC Parameters are Virtual Circuit Parameters combinations/sets. One set of VC Parameter is used for each unique Virtual Circuit that has been provisioned. Identically provisioned Virtual Circuits (exclusive of endpoints) use the same set of parameters. Thus, on a 32MB BCC, a total of 749 uniquely configured Virtual Circuits can be provisioned.
42. Care must be taken when changing the Deroute Delay parameter, which is controlled by the cnftrk command. This parameter defaults to zero, but if it is set to anything but zero, connection re-routing due to a trunk failure will be delayed as provided by the parameter.
1. The logical line and logical port databases can be corrupted when an IGX has Frame Relay lines as well as ATM lines, and a rebuild or Control Card switch over occurs. This corruption is evident by the appearance the software errors 549, 886, and 2071 on a switchover or rebuild, or if a software error 928 occurs while upping an ATM line. If such a corruption is found, the database can be cleaned up. Refer to the workaround of CSCdm54814.
2. When adding a node into an existing network, ensure that its node number is unique prior to actually adding it into the network. Use the rnmnd command (which is a Service-level command), and renumber the individual node while it is still stand-alone. This will make the joining of this node much simpler, and will avoid the problem of node renumbering an active network, as described below.
3. There is a problem with node renumbering. Node renumbering (the rnmnd command) should be executed only during a stable network environment and only if absolutely necessary. A stable network environment would be, for example, one in which no connection was added for the past 30 minutes and no topology change was made in the last hour and there are no alarms or node unreachabilities. Node renumbering must only be done when the network is stable to reduce the possibility of certain temporarily blocked messages during the node renumbering process being delivered to the wrong nodes. This would occur after the completion of the node renumbering process. It is recommended that a node be renumbered prior to being added to the network.
4. The settling time for network wide updates can take a long time in certain situations. Specifically, the settling time for updates due to network wide topology changes and connections in a large network when a processor switchover occurs can take a long time. The time is proportional to the number of nodes as well as the number of connections. A general estimate would be 30 seconds per node. During the period of transitions (when the updates are occurring) some network operations such as adding connections might, in some cases, take somewhat longer to complete.
5. When using Cisco WAN Manager, there could be a problem with communicating with a node that just had a processor switchover. The problem is within the SPARCstation itself and its caching of EtherNet addresses. It can be solved by execution the following command on the workstation as the superuser: # arp -d <node_name>
6. Users may not use the command addcon slot.1-24 v to add 24 voice connections to a CVM/UVM card at once. Instead, they must separate this activity into two or more commands, so that no more than 16 connections are added at once. This is only an issue for voice connections. Data connections can be added using the "1-24" syntax. This also applies when the CVM/UVM circuit line is an E1, in which case "1-32" would apply. (CSCdj14319)
7. Statistics collection must be disabled prior to the start of an upgrade, prior to the issuing of the first loadrev command. Stats should be disabled from Cisco WAN Manager (Stats collection manager).
8. Statistics sampling must be disabled prior to the start of an upgrade (using off1/off2), prior to the issuing of the first loadrev command. Stats sampling state machine should be disabled from the Command Line Interface.
9. When a switchcc is executed on a BPX 8600 configured with two BCC-4 cards and contains a BXM-622 trunk card, there may be a bad clock path problem reported. It is indicated as a Minor Alarm - bad clock path. This is a transitory problem, although the alarm indication persists. To clear this, execute the clrclkalm command.
10. Currently, T3-3 and T3-2 backcards are not interchangeable between ASI and BNI front cards, as this has been the case since the introduction of these cards. The back cards must be configured using cnfbkcd (with setnovram) so as to avoid backcard mismatch. (CSCdj41999)
In order to take advantage of the dual SIU when upgrading to the BCC-4, the BPX 8600 node must have a new back plane which has dual traces for incorporating with the BCC-4.
The command dspbpnv can be issued to verify if the node has the new backplane or the old backplane. The following table details the bit fields for the BCC Backplane NOVRAM format, the display of word 2 describes the back plane type:
| 16 Bit Word | Byte # (hex) | Contents |
0 | 0,1 | Hardware revision |
1 | 2,3 | Backplane Type (usually 0x65=101 decimal) |
2 | 4,5 | Backplane version (0x0000:old 0x0001:new) |
3 | 6,7 | Backplane serial number in ASCII - MSB |
4 | 8,9 | " |
5 | A,B | " LSB |
6 | C,D | Board FAB number, in ASCII - MSB |
7 | E,F | " |
8 | 10,11 | " |
9 | 12,13 | " |
A | 14,15 | " |
B | 16,17 | " LSB |
C | 18,19 | Unused |
D | 1A,1B | Unused |
E | 1C,1D | Unused |
F | 1E,1F | Checksum bytes - CURRENTLY NOT SUPPORTED |
With regards to statistics collection, the peak statistics collection intervals are controlled to be only those values for which peaks can be accurately collected The rules for peak intervals are as follows:
There are additional commands to control trunk and line loopbacks in this release:
The card synchronization (Hitless-Switchcc) feature can be turned on/off using the on3/off3 command (which is a StrataCom-level command). For example, enter at the command line:
For a complete list of firmware revisions supported, see the Compatibility Matrix document, which is included in this release package.
This release will run with Release 4.0.0x, 4.1.0x, or 5.0.0x of the MGX 8220.

The following is the list of known anomalies in this Switch Software delivery. Included with each is a brief discussion of the problem. A more in depth discussion is available in the release note enclosure of the problem record in Bug Navigator
The following is the list of fixed anomalies in the 9.2.30 Switch Software delivery. Included with each is a brief discussion of the problem.
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
CSCdk36040 | Symptom: The FRP front card type is reported in trap 20004 (cardAlarm) when the back card is pulled. Workaround: After receiving this trap, do a dspcds to see which card is missing. |
CSCdk53336 | Symptom: tstdelay always reports 0 ms. Conditions: When the connection is on the port two. Workaround: None Further Problem Description: When the tstdelay is executed on the connections added on the port two tstdelay reports 0ms |
CSCdk87939 | Symptom: dspchcnf displays ECNQ Threshold as a byte value rather than a percentage. Workaround: Compute the percentage by dividing the displayed value for ECNQ Threshold by the VCQ depth times 48 (to convert the VCQ depth from cells to bytes). |
CSCdm05502 | Symptom: Parm 8 and parm 9 for echo convergence time and double talk detection should be made user configurable to be in sync with UVM FW change. Conditions: Command Line Interface change. Workaround: None |
CSCdm19532 | Symptom: ABIT alarm is not propagated through network after changing from NNI to UNI port. Conditions: Changing the port from a NNI to a UNI and connected a router to the UNI port with LMI talking which clears the Failed condition but does not propagate the abit status across the network. Workaround: The workaround for the customer is to use UNI and turn LMI off to mask any alarms and then turn it back on. |
CSCdm24140 | Symptom: After deleting a connection there is a delay in the response of low level tasks, such as the user interface. Conditions: IGX with software release 9.1 (may also apply to other platforms and SW releases). Platform may have few objects (connections, ports, lines, and trunks), but has many statistics enabled for each object. After the deletion of the connection dspqs will show a very high "Trns Exchange" interval (greater than 500ms) with "Obj,Evt,Old,New" "80 F1 PROCESSING IDLE". The thstats will also show high "TotMsecs" for "SM#" 80. Workaround: 1. Reduce the number of statistics enabled for each object. Only statistics that are needed should be enabled. The TFTP statistics enable file should not have statistics for objects which are not on the switch (such as FastPad if FastPad is not used). 2. Use dlcon and dvc to determine if they have a sparse distribution. A sparse population may be created if there are a lot of VC additions and deletions (VCs are not very permanent). With a sparse distribution the delay can be decreased by using cnfnodeparm to decrease the "Stat Config Proc Cnt" from 1000 to 2. The default value is optimal for a homogenous densely populated connection database (a lot of ATM PVCs), but does not work well with a heterogeneous sparsely populated database. The trade off of the parameter change is that the overall time to enable all statistics on all objects will be greater when statistics are first enabled. Once all statistics are enabled for existing statistics objects, the time to enable statistics for a new statistics object (such as a connection) will not change. If the connection composition on a node becomes larger and/or more homogenous the parameter may need to be changed to optimize performance. |
CSCdm31990 | Symptom: E1 CCS or T1 line conditioning was not preserved across a Y-redundant switchover. Condition: Establish conditioned E1 or T1 connections on a card configured for Y-redundancy. If the primary card fails, the conditioning will not be retained. Workaround: None |
CSCdm42254 | Symptom: When a user ID is deleted from the user database, subsequent users are shifted and use of the same privilege level as the immediately following user. Conditions: Network of 9.1.09 where issue was discovered. Lab network at 9.1.09, 9.1.10, and 9.2.00 with problem. Workaround: In order to prevent the shifting, a dummy user ID needs to be created any time an existing user ID is deleted. The dummy ID will fill the spot vacated by the deleted user ID and user IDs below the deletion will shift back to their normal positions. |
CSCdm53182 | Symptom: Two 'Error 923' log entries added to the software error log after entering the dsptrkred command. The data field of the error is 00000000. Conditions: dsptrkred command entered on IGX. Workaround: The error is a warning that an invalid logical trunk number of 0 was passed to a routine to get the trunk information. In some cases this may indicate a database inconsistency, but in this case it indicates a software loop index that starts with 0 rather than 1. The error can be ignored, but the software error log should be cleared after using the dsptrkred command to prevent the log from filling up with 923 errors, which may prevent the recording of important software errors necessary to diagnose more significant problems. |
CSCdm65380 | Symptom: The VCIs used for physical trunks would start at 4096, which would not allow a user to trunk through a cloud which limits the VCI field to 12 bits (4095). Impact: Inability to use wraparound trunks over certain clouds. Workaround: None |
CSCdm72719 | Symptom: Unable to add BNI VT Condition: BNI VT connected to an ASI cloud port, No shift. Workaround: down the trunk, up some dummy trunks, and try to add the trunk again. |
CSCdm74224 | Symptom: Following warning message comes when we do cnfport for a newly upped port. "VSI configuration active on card. Cannot modify ESP parameters" Conditions: Running 9.2.10 When we have VSI enabled on BXM ports and we do cnfport on a newly upped port. Workaround: This is just a warning message. 'cnfport' does pass successfully. The message comes just to let user know that since VSI is enabled on that card, ESP parameters will not be available for modification. |
CSCdm85764 | Symptom: Software Error 2051 is logged every hour when the switch is writing to the TFTP Statistics File. Conditions: The problem may be seen on IPX or BPX nodes collecting physical line statistics. Workaround: The problem is caused by a TFTP file overhead calculation which fails under certain boundary conditions. Workarounds are as follows: - Disable collection of physical line statistics - Enable or disable individual statistics to avoid file overhead calculation boundary condition. - Enable or disable statistics objects to avoid file overhead calculation boundary condition. Further Problem Description: When the overhead was calculated for the TFTP file, the physical line object subtype counts were not included in the calculation. As a result, slightly more file memory could be required than allocated for the file. Under certain boundary conditions, the file size was exceeded, resulting in the logging of the 2051 error. |
CSCdm85783 | Symptom: 6 ATFR connections were deleted after rebuild due to LCON database corruption. software errors 614/612 were logged. Condition: This happened during a full rebuild. Workaround: None |
CSCdm86633 | Symptom: Poor voice quality (garbled or no voice) for VNS connections may be intermittently observed. Conditions: The VNS call (SVC on the IGX system) is terminated/deleted when the slave node is in a comm. break state with the master node. Workaround: Issue the command updates 3 * from every node in the network (or more precisely, from every node that experienced a combreak with a node that it previously had a SVC connection with). Further Problem Description: This problem is tied to comm. break and call termination. If the network is not experiencing comm. break at this time, then there is degradation in service. The degradation is caused by the slave end of the connection not being deleted and subsequently interacting with a later call. |
CSCdm88262 | Symptom: Able to add FRM/UFM - UXM dax connections (ATFR/ATFST) with PCR < 50 cps or MIR < 19.2 kbps with policing=ON. Condition: Currently, UXM has the policing limit of 50 cps. The policing behavior is unpredictable if the MIR/PCR < 50 cps. CLI should block this type of connections. But it is not blocking currently. Workaround: Add the dax connection from UXM side - FRP/UFM side. In this case, CLI checks for the PCR and policing value. It allows to go below 50 cps up to cps with policing = OFF only. Otherwise, it blocks the connection. |
CSCdm91238 | Symptom: Software error 2003 was logged. Condition: snmpget command was given, with multiple objects of atmPortStatTable, where at least one of the objects belonged to invalid statistics. Workaround: Do not give snmpget command (with multiple objects) for invalid statistics. If all the objects specified in the snmpget command are valid then it should not be a problem. |
CSCdm91631 | Symptom: Some of the 1000 new bandwidth parms might look used after ungraceful upgrade from 9.1. Condition: This only happens when the fields in BRAM stored after the BW Parms are used (there are more then 72 ports or lines on the node). Workaround: If this problem should occur, clear the memory of BW parms 3000 to 3999 using patch memory. |
CSCdm92021 | Symptom: Parity error may be logged unnecessarily if UXM is in test mode or debug mode. The checking of this condition was not valid. Conditions: When UXM is in test mode or debug mode we would ignore the parity error. But the checking of this condition was using the wrong index so this checking may not be valid. Workaround: None |
CSCdm92790 | Symptom: Voice and NTS traffic from IGX serviced in BXM VBR Q Conditions: Routing node is BPX and we have connection carrying Voice and NTS traffic from IGX. Workaround: None |
CSCdm93670 | Symptom: Cannot configure 2 OC3 trunk has 7K PVCs Conditions: Already added BXM trunk and other end PVC lcn available value is lower than what we trying to configure. Workaround: Issue "cnfrsrc" at the remote end and verify how many PVC lcns available. Configure up to that many PVC lcns on the local node. |
CSCdm93701 | Symptom: PVC shows inconsistent prefer route information. Conditions: Preferred route was being changed while the connection was being rerouted (race condition). Workaround: Reconfigure preferred route again. |
CSCdm94587 | Symptom: Software errors 532 and 923 logged Conditions: Run deltrk on a downed card Workaround: No impact on the system |
CSCdp00060 | Symptom: Software error 526 got logged. Condition: Command cnftrk was given for a virtual trunk number greater than 9, where the port number of the trunk was also greater than 9. Workaround: None. The software error is completely harmless. |
CSCdp01511 | Symptom: Software allows addition of FRM - FRM 2 seg. conn with the routing conn. with type cbr, which shouldn't be. Condition: Upon addition of the connection from BTM end / software allows addition of ATM connection type even though the remote card may be FRM. Workaround: None |
CSCdp02203 | Symptom: addcon from 3 seg connection (FR-FR connection) using CWM fails, saying that the minimum default value for SCR is 7. Conditions: Whenever we have BTM as a feeder trunk for 3 seg connection. Workaround: Choose SCR/MCR/PCR value greater than or equal to 10 for this type of connection. |
CSCdp03317 | Symptom: Trunks remains in VT Path fail alarm state. Conditions: Usually when ILMI has just been enabled on a cloud port, or UXM VT is left up for some time without being added. Problem should be sporadic. Workaround: For the cloud problem down and up the VPC con. For the UXM VT poll issue, path the port field to zero (patch memory) |
CSCdp04213 | Symptom: Software error 3025 gets logged. Condition: SNMP command walk was given for atmPortStatLmiStatAckRxs. Workaround: None. The errors however are harmless. |
CSCdp05149 | Symptom: During hitless rebuild you may see software error 1mil 2 (write Protect error - meaning an attempt has been made to write on a write protect region/variable). Condition: It mainly happens during network flooding test, when a debug code kicks in. There was a bug in that code which tries to write to a static (WRITE Protect) variable, thus throwing off software error 1mil2. Workaround: None |
CSCdp06823 | Symptom: After switchcc the user ran tstconseg, the node reported software error 9082. Condition: Soon after switchcc, when the card is not yet up or the channels are yet to be programmed, if we issue tstconseg, we see a software error 9082. Workaround. Wait for the card to be fully programmed before running tstconseg. |
CSCdp08636 | Symptom: With BXM trunk connected to a feeder, dsptrks shows the feeder name as the node name itself. The CWM topology may not show the feeder and the node anymore. Conditions: This happens when LMI on the feeder trunk is configured to be on the BXM and a software or physical loopback is added. Workaround: Do not add loopback on the feeder trunk with LMI configured to be on the BXM. To test with loopback, have LMI on BCC instead. |
CSCdp11851 | Symptom: After node rebuild in a large network high CPU utilization for Transaction Handler, nwstats shows many received A0 messages, thstats shows CMUP state machine (31) is very busy. Condition: Node has many thousand connections Workaround: Turn off Reroute state machine to finish CM update processing first. |
CSCdp12024 | Symptom: BXM trunk/line alarms different on BPX/IGX and CWM Conditions: The alarm go through a gateway that has a different release (9.1 vs. 9.2) Workaround: None. The alarms shown on BPX/IGX are correct. It's better to upgrade gateway to 9.2 first. |
CSCdp12505 | It would be useful to have additional memory in the Hitless Region. Some is available in the Pool Region, that can be moved. |
CSCdp14002 | Symptom: Trunk failure/repairs cause Comm Break clearing algorithm to go back to retry closest nodes with no guarantee that distant nodes will ever be cleared. Condition: Rebuild of node, trunks going in and out of failure. Workaround: Cause those trunks to be permanently failed. |
CSCdp15671 | Symptom: Software error 105 logged. Condition: This may happen when a DC power supply is used and cnfbus is done. Workaround: Do not do cnfbus when a DC power supply is used. Additional Information: This software error 105 is not a harmful one. This is logged when the power supply module on the SCM is not able to process messages fast enough. Though this error is logged, the cycle to get the status from the PSM recovers and continues to work. |
CSCdp15712 | Symptom: Unable to add connections from a BXM feeder endpoint with VCI greater than 255. Even with the feeder trunk configured with UNI, VPI greater than 255 possible. Condition: This happens when adding connections from an IGX feeder using a BXM feeder trunk. Workaround: None |
CSCdp16760 | Symptom: Software errors 3033 and 532 seen on BPX 9.2.22 release Conditions: Unknown - probably a race condition that causes a connection to be deleted for two different reasons. Workaround: None |
CSCdp16891 | Symptom: Software error 532 seen on BPX 9.2.22 release on standby BCC Conditions: Possibly during switchcc/rebuild. Workaround: None. These software errors are not harmful, if they happen on STBY during above conditions. |
CSCdp17303 | Symptom: Lines do not show up on certain BXM-E3/T3 cards in CWM 9.2.06M.SOL Conditions: Has to be BXM- E3/T3 cards and have lines and trunks upped. Workaround: None |
CSCdp17741 | Symptom: 2-portgroup card reports 1 port group at the channel stats level 2 and 3. Condition: When channel stats level 2 or 3 are configured on BXM-622-2 port and BXM-155 reports only one port group. Workaround: Auto Route connections are not affected by this. But for VSI connections there is no work around. |
CSCdp18093 | Symptom: Continuous PRI Loss Clock messages appear in log when primary clock source defined as a trunk with a VT on it. Conditions: UXM card with vtrk on IMA backcard (like T1 backcard) and 9.2 swsw release. Workaround: Do not configure vtrk as primary clock source for UXM with IMA card like T1/E1. Use other trunks. |
CSCdp18160 | Symptom: False NNI failure shown on UXM port connection. Conditions: The end point that has the false failure is on this end of a daxcon and has no protocol configured on the port. The other end is on different port of the same card and has a valid NNI failure. Controller card is reset and the other end's NNI status changed. If the connection is deleted and a new connection is added and the lcn # of the old end point is reused, the new end point will inherit the failure. Workaround: Delete the connection and add it back with the false failure end point on the other end. |
CSCdp20894 | Symptom: addlnloclp/dellnlp causes trunk stays in alarms. Conditions: BXM yred pair which is active. Switch software 9.2.22 (or earlier 9.2 releases). Workaround: Never issue addlnloclp/dellnloclp (actually dellnlp causes this problem) for BXM yred pair, trunk or port. Or else delete yred and then issue commands. |
CSCdp20961 | Symptom: 5019 software error occurs during loadrev and runrev 9.2.3x Condition: Graceful upgrade from 9.2.3E to 9.2.3F. Have trunks and lines up with partitions enabled. Workaround: None |
CSCdp21688 | Symptom: Secondary BXM card in Y-red Config goes in mismatch when node is upgraded from 9.1 to 9.2. Condition: When Y-red card is not in service. Workaround: Do resetcd on the card which has gone in mismatch. However, there is no impact on user since the card is not in service. |
CSCdp21803 | Symptom: When a trunk is activated, an event log message is sent from the node to the CWM. It is possible that the node name listed in the CWM event log will be incorrect. Conditions: This can happen only in a network that has multiple CWM workstations. Workaround: None |
CSCdp23116 | Description: If an abort occurs during initialization when a node is being upgraded and brought up for the first time, it is possible for continuous hitless rebuilds to occur. Conditions: The continuous rebuilds will occur only in the unlikely event that an abort condition occurs during the initialization process, when release 9.2 is being brought up for the first time. |
CSCdp23196 | Symptom: Software error 1101 logged. Condition: This software error may be logged when repeated switchcc's and power cycles are done on a node. Forced switchcc with the standby just coming up after a forced switchcc and still in update state will lead to this software error. Workaround: Do not do forced switchcc or pull out the active processor card with the standby still not in Standby state. This software error doesn't have any serious effects on the system. |
CSCdp23410 | Symptom: Comm. break, Comm. fail, inability to add trunk. Conditions: VPI configured for 0 on physical UXM trunk. Workaround: Do not have VPI configured for 0 on physical UXM trunk. |
CSCdp24319 | Symptom: dspcon does not display all parameters of atfst connection on second screen. Condition: bw_parm_def bit was set (randomly) Workaround: Cnfcon to modify connection, disabling 'Default Ext Parms'. |
CSCdp24366 | Symptom: Lots of software errors 532 Condition: Post upgrade from 9.1 to 9.2 Workaround: Delete y-redundancy, reset stby card, and re-add redundancy. |
CSCdp25420 | Symptom: A line which is already upped can be configured as an ima trunk member. Conditions: None Workaround: Do not attempt to add lines that are already upped as members when configuring an ima trunk. |
CSCdp25685 | Symptom: Software error 1012 gets logged on issuing delshelf of a trunk added as VSI shelf. Condition: cnfrsrc to set Maximum PVC LCNs as "Zero" Workaround: None: |
CSCdp26827 | Symptom: Software Error 9082 gets logged Condition: When cnfcon is done using Cisco Wan Manager Workaround: cnfcon can be done using cli on the node. |
CSCdp27775 | Symptom: Unable to add IGX feeder. Condition: This may happen when you try to add a feeder after clrallcnf/clrcnf. Workaround: Patch IlmiConnid database to clear any garbage after clrcnf/clrallcnf. |
CSCdp30654
| Symptoms: Dspselftst shows no crosspoints tested or fewer than expected crosspoints tested. Conditions: BXMs which have ports active (upln /upport activated ports) Workaround: Fill the structure which saves background test information with 0, and disable the background test. Or full rebuild. |
CSCdp31596 | Symptom: In switch software 9.2.22, it is observed that the FST configuration on an NTM trunk does not appear correctly. This then prevents the proper 'addtrk' functionality and causes errors such as. "Abandoned because traffic classes conflict." or "Abandoned due to trunk parameters conflict" when attempting to add the trunk to a remote end. Workaround: None |
CSCdp32058 | Symptom: A very heavily loaded node in a large network may get very busy processing CM updates after a full rebuild. Workaround: None except for turning off CM routing. |
CSCdp32815 | Symptom: It appears that the display is hanging when executing dspvsipartinfo. Condition: Running the dspvsipartinfo command. Workaround: Press any key except "DEL" and this will print a line at the bottom of the screen "Hit DEL key to quit:" and hence remove the confusion about the display hanging. |
CSCdp35713 | Symptom: dspchuse <slot> shows 541 networking channels allocated per port. Condition: upgrade, switchcc or hitless rebuild. Workaround: If the user needs more channels a patch memory procedure is required after every switchcc to correct the bad counters. If the user does not require the extra channels no action is required, as besides the counters nothing is wrong. |
CSCdp39714 | Symptom: After an upgrade, VPC conns don't route. Condition: Upgrading from one release of 9.2.2x to another release of 9.2.2x. Workarounds: None |
The following is the list of fixed anomalies in the 9.2.23 Switch Software delivery. Included with each is a brief discussion of the problem.
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
CSCdm64323 | Symptom: SWERR 3005 BAD_BW_DEFAULTS seen on two bpx nodes Condition: atfr or atfst connection was created using Cisco Wan Manager or SNMP with the cell-routing restricted property set. During a later re-configuration that restriction was lifted causing the 3005 software error and the change of the connection type to fpvbr. Workaround: Delete and re-add connection without cell-routing restriction. |
CSCdp25375 | Symptom: Full rebuild after a 1000001 abort Conditions: No special conditions - can happen with any marginal control card Workaround: None |
The following is the list of fixed anomalies in the 9.2.22 Switch Software delivery. Included with each is a brief discussion of the problem.
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
CSCdp04046 | Symptom: CMUPDATE state machine uses a lot of CPU time after node rebuild in a large net. Condition: Large network and node has many thousand (around 10000) connections spread to many nodes. Workaround: Turn off routing state machine to provide more CPU for CMUPDATE state machine. |
CSCdp05661 | Symptom: Node does not clear Comm Break with some nodes although it could send messages to them. Condition: Node is in Comm Break with several nodes, and some close by (in terms of hop count) nodes go continuously in and out of Comm Break. As a result node never sends a Comm Break test message to nodes farther away. Workaround: Clear up the situation of nodes going in and out of Comm Break. Could be a flaky trunk, or nodes are busy with something else. A final resort would be to give the command: droppkts 100 <originating node> 60 on the nodes going in and out of Comm Break where <originating node> is the name of the node trying to clear Comm Break. After one wants to attempt again to clear Comm Break with a node type: droppkts 0 0 0 to undo the previous droppkts command. |
CSCdp10383 | Symptom: tftp file for PHYSLINE object stats reports all ports as zero. The port value could be non-zero but garbled up value. Conditions: Enable Physline stats and we have multiple physlines (i.e trunks/lines) up on the same card. Workaround: None |
The following is the list of fixed anomalies in the 9.2.21 Switch Software delivery. Included with each is a brief discussion of the problem.
The following is the list of fixed anomalies in the 9.2.20 Switch Software delivery. Included with each is a brief discussion of the problem.
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
CSCdm27574 | Symptoms: 01.) Connections fail when there is a loss of signal on the UXM feeder trunk as expected. 02.) When the LOS is no longer present, the connections still remain failed, but there is data continuity. Conditions: 01.) LOS on the UXM feeder trunk can cause this situation Workaround: 01.) Rebuilding the problem slot will clear the incorrect status. |
CSCdm27726 | Symptom: Card error (N Fatal from 0x17:0x25010022) is logged on standby of Y-red pair when the card is reset/node rebuild. Condition: This happens only on standby of Y-red BXM pairs which support VSI and only when the card is rebuilt along with other cards simultaneously. Workaround: None |
CSCdk33999 | Symptom: Connections are deleted without user intervention and software errors 532 logged with 000000FF in the data field. The software errors are logged prior to the logging of the connection deletions in the event log. Conditions: The source node for the deletions (the one with the software error 532s) is an IGX or IPX. The connections deleted terminate on FRM or FRP cards on the source node. This problem has only observed a few times, but was observed multiple times on at least one node. It is very likely that an operation performed on the node triggered the problem, but this operation has not been identified. Workaround: The conditions for this problem need to be identified before a workaround can be provided. To help characterize the problem, please collect the following: 1. constats 2. dsprrst 3. dspswlog d 4. dsplog (showing auto deletions and prior activities) 5. Anything that does not look 'normal'. 6. Input from the customer regarding activities performed on the node. 7. dspsvcst 8. dspsnmpstats Issuance of the 'switchcc' command will probably not restore the connections, but may be necessary to resolve inconsistencies that prevent adding the connections again. The connections were probably deleted to resolve an inconsistency. Unfortunately the auto deletion is not complete, and logical endpoint data from the auto deleted connections may prevent adding connections after the auto deletion. The logical endpoint data is rebuilt after a CC switch, thus removing the inconsistency. Further Information: If this problem is observed, please determine what operations were performed on the node at the time the problem was observed. The auto deletion condition has not been identified, and the problem has not been reproducible in the lab. Inconsistencies induced into the connection data bases have not produced the characteristics observed in the field (primarily the swerr 532). The induced inconsistencies have shown that the auto deletions of the connections may be incomplete, and a switchcc is often required after the auto deletion to restore the logical endpoint structure. |
CSCdk34492 | Symptom: Wrong value returned in SNMP for atmOtherEndptDesc of a connection terminated on a remote BTM feeder trunk. The port number should be 255 not 256. Conditions: When query from BPX side in SNMP. Work Around: NMS needs to interpret port number 256 as 255 for this kind connection. |
CSCdk85811 | Symptom: LAN fuse failed on IGX-NPM Conditions: dspcd 1, dspcd 2 shows LAN fuse failed Workaround: resetcd (1/2) f, switchcc Further Problem Description: Service affecting if done on a node with single processors |
CSCdk89665 | Symptom: Unable to configure a UFM-C E1 line to unchannelized with 9.1.x SWSW. Cannot set E1 line framing to OFF Cannot set line Signalling to None. Conditions: Customer environment not relevant. Affects 9.1.03 and 9.1.06 and probably all releases of 9.1. Workaround: None |
CSCdk93626 | Symptom: atmEndptMCR is out of range. Conditions: When a connection is ended on a BXM port and MCR is less than 6. Work Around: Don't set MCR less than 6 if a connection is ended on a BXM port. . Range: . ASI/BNI T3 : 0-96000 E3 : 0-80000 OC3 : 0-353208 . BXM/UXM T3 : 6-96000 E3 : 6-80000 OC3 : 6-353208 |
CSCdm00711 | Symptom: Hardware watchdog aborts on all versions of release 9.1 on an NPM-32. When software attempts to access memory in the 32-64Mb range on an NPM-32 an access error interrupt will not be generated, the CPU will freeze until a hardware watchdog occurs. A switchover will occur if a standby NPM is available. A rebuild will occur if a standby NPM is not available. Conditions: NPM-32 with the SNMP Get community string configured. Certain SNMP operations are causing switch software to access non existent memory. Workaround: Set the SNMP Get community string to NOACCESS. |
CSCdm07296 | Symptom: No OAM loopback configuration is displayed while cnfoamlpbk is in progress or upon completing cnfoamlpbk command. Condition: Occurs while performing cnfoamlpbk command Workaround: Need to type dspoamlpbk command before and after cnfoamlpbk. |
CSCdm08324 | Symptom: The physical portion of a BXM trunk, a physline, is allowing a BNI card's physical based CRXL statistic to be enabled. The BXM's CRXL statistic is a logical statistic based and not the same as a BNI card's CRXL statistic. Conditions: This will occur when the customer enables the statistic "BNI: Total Cells Rx (Phys)" and there are BXM trunks up on the node. The physical portion of the BXM trunk, the physline, will enable this BNI-only statistic. Workaround: Ignore the BNI-only statistic that is being reported for the BXM trunk. |
CSCdm18555 | Symptom: For the following conditions, the user either cannot add yred or is reported with false mismatch alarm. The user does not get any benefit by upgrading to the enhanced UXM card because of the mismatch. Condition: 1. Can not configure yred for mixed UXM cards if in standby mode. Can not configure yred if in active mode and the primary card is enhanced while secondary is non-enhanced. 2. The switch issues false mismatch alarm under any of the following conditions: * For standby yred UXM card pair, when change the secondary card from non-extended card to extended card. * For mixed yred UXM card pair, when upgrade from release 9.1 to release 9.2. * For active non-yred card, when change from extended card to non-extended card. * For active yred card pair, when change the secondary card from extended card to non-extended card. Workaround: None |
CSCdm27726 | Symptom: Card error (N Fatal from 0x17:0x25010022) is logged on standby of Y-red pair when the card is reset/node rebuild. Condition: This happens only on standby of Y-red BXM pairs which support VSI and only when the card is rebuilt along with other cards simultaneously. Workaround: None |
CSCdm32599 | Symptom: It takes too much time for the virtual trunk to declare/clear Virtual Trunk Path Failure when the VPC connection at the cloud becomes bad/good even if ILMI is configured on the cloud port with trap enabled. Condition: This happens when a UXM virtual trunk is connected to a BXM cloud port and ILMI at the cloud port is configured to be on the BXM card. Workaround: When a UXM virtual trunk is connected to a BXM cloud port, do not configure ILMI protocol on the BXM card at the cloud port. Have protocol on the BCC. |
CSCdm41637 | Symptom: There's not enough space for cnfpref command when the path is 10 hops long Conditions: cnfpref with more than 2 line long Workaround: None |
CSCdm43422 | Problem: dsptrkutl does not work for NTM trunks. It shows all zero. Workaround: None |
CSCdm43783 | Symptom: Software error 55 after graceful upgrade due to sampling of the card even when it was not active. Conditions: Graceful upgrade Workaround: None |
CSCdm44536 | Symptom: Command "dcdrtbl" causes software errors 532 and 55 Condition: This behavior is for BXM and BNI cards. Workaround: None |
CSCdm50232 | Symptom: Software error 2000 (SNMP_INVLD_OBJ) logged on BPX. Condition: The SNMP get operation on BPX for trunk parameters with the remote node IGX and other end slot greater than 32 cause this error. Workaround: None |
CSCdm50251 | Symptom: Certain counter values in CiscoView are undefined in CLI and display incorrect values. SNMP Agent on switch is returning bad values. Conditions: Observed on node with BXM viewing dspportstats, verifying CiscoView values, and walking switch MIB values. Workaround: None |
CSCdm50372 | Symptom: The node performed the hitless rebuild but the log shows that the MGX 8220 shelves all went into and out of alarm. Logging onto the MGX 8220 shelves and displaying their logs indicate that the MGX 8220 shelf reported LMI failure in addition to the LCNs going into and out of alarm. Conditions: This problem will only happen when the BPX node has a lot of connections (e.g. 10,000+) terminating on it and has a lot of MGX 8220 shelves (e.g. 8+) attaching to it. The MGX 8220 reports LMI failure because the BPX is busy rebuilding the connections and is not responding to the MGX 8220 LMI polling in time. Work Around: None |
CSCdm51357 | Symptom: Software error 121 (CB_TMOUT_FLUSH) is logged when there standby UXM cards performing selftest, and a hitless rebuild or switchcc is done. Impact: None Workaround: None. |
CSCdm52990 | Symptom: Node experiences 3M and 1M3 due to flooding on ILMI/LMI channel or an IP relay channel. Condition: When we have feeder added (PAR feeder type) and we have added connection with VPI, VCI 3.8 or 3.31 (which are used by ILMI/LMI and IP relay channels). The added feeder could be MGX 8220, PAR, popeye. Workaround: Do not add connection with VPI, VCI 3.8 or 3.31 when we have feeder added. |
CSCdm53035 | Symptom: The various Qbin depths does not change with the new transmit rate value for non-added trunk. Condition: Various Qbin depths are not reflected with the transmit rate change for non-added physical/virtual. Workaround: None |
CSCdm53119 | Symptom: Software error 129 seen on the active BCC when dspswlog is issued when the standby BCC is in cleared state. Condition: When Standby BCC is in cleared state. This happens for a very small interval soon after a switchcc. Workaround: Wait for sometime after switchcc, until the card comes out of the cleared state. |
CSCdm53126 | Symptom: User id updates may not stop when one user id is marked with a corrupted password. This can take up bandwidth for control messages. Workaround: No easy one. Patch memory of the user id database on the node with the number to clear the corrupted password flags. |
CSCdm53376 | Symptom: Trunk errors not reported under "dsptrkerrs" after the upgrade from 8.4.14 to 9.1.09 Conditions: Trunk errors were reported on heavily loaded NTM trunks with Bursty Data B traffic prior to the upgrade. Since the IPX/IGX upgrade to 9.1.09 no error are registered. Workaround: Delete, down, up, and re-add the trunk in question. Merely deleting and re-adding will be insufficient. If delete and add trunks are not desirable, a procedure to patch memory are described in the workaround enclosure. This procedure applies to all platforms. Further Problem Description: This problem affects BPX, IGX and IPX trunks, lines AUTO statistics collections after upgrade from 8.4 to 8.5 or 8.4 to 9.1 or 8.5 to 9.1. |
CSCdm54117 | Symptom: Swerr 9082 logged. Condition: None Workaround: None |
CSCdm56012 | Description: This DDTS report is for new functionality. There are several new versions of BXM cards that are known as "enhanced" cards. In robust messages that are sent from switch software to Cisco WAN Manager, the new card types need to be sent. Workaround: None is needed. |
CSCdm57535 | Symptom: Statistics counter value is displayed for atmPortStatBcmRxs. Condition: Command 'walk atmPortStatEntry' was given for a BXM port from an SNMP tool e.g. snmptalk. Workaround: Ignore this counter value, as atmPortStatBcmRxs is not valid for BXM port statistics. |
CSCdm58398 | Symptom: The dsptrkstats command, when executed on a BXM trunk, displays the full physical port bandwidth for the "trunk speed" rather than the configured bandwidth. Condition: This will occur when the command dsptrkstats is run on a BXM trunk. Customer Impact: This is a cosmetic defect. The trunk speed is really the value that the customer has configured, however, this command is displaying the full physical line interface rate. Workaround: Ignore the "trunk speed" field. |
CSCdm59091 | Symptom: LDM and CVM connections cannot be modified by the Cisco Wan Manager (CWM) GUI. Specifically, preferred route and COS cannot be changed and the connections cannot be deleted. Conditions: LDM and CVM connections which have been added to an 8.4 network and upgraded to 9.1.12 cannot be modified nor deleted by CWM GUI. Command line access works fine. Connections deleted and re-added or which are added in 9.1 work fine. Workaround: Delete (via CLI) and re-add (via CLI or CWM) the connections after the upgrade is complete to restore full management capability. |
CSCdm59267 | Description: In the Robust ATM Connection Object message sent from Switch Software to StrataView, certain connection object subtypes are not being sent. In particular, the following are not being sent. Instead, they are being mapped to other subtypes. ATFTFST ---\ ATFXFST ---/ ATFST
ATFT ---\ ATFX ---/ ATF The mappings need to be removed so that the additional details will be available to StrataView. Workaround: There is no workaround needed for this situation. It will not affect most customers. The additional information is sometimes useful to StrataView. |
CSCdm59268 | Symptom: Node becomes very busy Condition: When VAD/LDCELP con is added Workaround: None |
CSCdm61126 | Symptom: The BPX node reported that the firmware upgrade was completed, but the actual burnt firmware failed. Condition: Due to a bad flash, the firmware upgrade aborted. The firmware upgrade can also abort when we try to burn a certain kind of firmware over a very old and incompatible firmware. In such cases the firmware burn would abort but switch software would report incorrectly that the burning of firmware has been completed. Workaround: None Usually burning of firmware takes 2 to 3 minutes. If swsw reports the burn to be complete within 20 to 30 seconds these are signs that something is wrong. Also there must be no card errors while the burnfw is taking place. |
CSCdm62548 | Symptom: Software error 2085 is logged on standby. Condition: Standby does not get TRUNK_CNFG update in time, when we up a trunk and we have line stats machine triggered at that moment. Workaround: None Note: This bug fix also, includes changes made for 9.2 rev up for bug # CSCdm53376 See this bug release notes for more information. |
CSCdm63487 | Symptom: cnftrk does not prompt for Header type (like STI/UNI) BTM and AIT trunks. Henceforth it does not prompt for selecting gateway type (like BAM, CAM, SAM). Condition: When we have BTM or AIT trunks and we do "cnftrk" on those trunks. Workaround: None |
CSCdm63889 | Symptom: Standby controller card kept being reset and was in a continuous state of updating. Conditions: When TFTP statistics are enabled, and the global that controls when a file interval is completed gets clobbered it may lead to this situations. We currently do not know what conditions lead to the clobbering of the global. Workaround: There are two workarounds: 1. Disable and then re-enable all TFTP interval stats 2. Patch the Rt_Interval_In_Prog global to the correct value. Further Problem Description: Rt_Interval_In_Prog is used to control the completion of a file interval by comparing it with the current time. It is displayed in "Rt Interval:" by dspstatparms command. When Rt Interval is clobbered and has a value much smaller than the current time, the system will try to finish too many file intervals, which may prevent standby updates from completing. Code has been put in to correct Rt Interval automatically when it is clobbered. Software error 2095 is logged with the correction, one stat file is lost and a new file interval is started. |
CSCdm64045 | Symptom: Standby controller card logs several software error 886's and 2071's during an upgrade for circuit lines. Customer Impact: The software errors are logged, and the supporting data structures for statistical alarming are not allocated. These errors can and will fill the standby's software error log. Workaround: None Further Notes: These software errors are a result of a recent code check in which is believed to not have ever made it to the field. |
CSCdm65060 | Symptom: Unable to bring up a UNI IMA Trunk between IMATM and UXM. Conditions: Switch software 9.2.10, but worked in 9.2.01 Workaround: Revert back down to 9.2.01, or use NNI cell header. |
CSCdm65089 | Symptom: Continuous PRI Clock loss messages in LOG Conditions: Switch software 9.2.01 Workaround: None |
CSCdm65104 | Symptom: Tstcon on DTE connections which terminate at HDM cards. Condition: See above Workaround: None |
CSCdm66452 | Symptom: tstber in manual mode stops receiving after nearly 1 1/2 hours. Condition: When auto tstber also runs at the interval set in cnftstparms for self test. Workaround: Disable self test using cnftstparms if you need to run tstber in auto mode continuously. |
CSCdm67094 | Symptom: Can't configure cnfasm parameters 8-12 from Y-> N. Condition: "cnfasm 8", "cnfasm 9", "cnfasm 10", "cnfasm 11", "cnfasm 12", "cnfasm 13" won't work for all BPX 9.2.10 nodes. Workaround: None |
CSCdm67130 | Symptom: ABR traffic class gets dropped from BXM/UXM/BNI trunks. Condition: An non-graceful upgrade from 9.2.10 to 9.2.20 with ABR traffic class set for the trunk. This is for both, IGX and BPX. This is because, we store the traffic class bits incorrectly in BRAM and it shows up when the 10th traffic class RT_VBR is introduced into 9.2.20 Workaround: Use "cnftrk" to put back the ABR traffic class. |
CSCdm67358 | Symptom: The following symptoms are all related to this defect: - An error and abort 3000000 is logged under seemingly normal circumstances, followed by various memory errors such as 502, 589, 504, 501 - A 1000003 abort is logged from the Root process on the standby after a switchover, or on the active after a hitless rebuild. - After a switchover, the standby is continuously reset, the IGX indicates a watch dog timeout, the BPX indicates a system reset. - The active card continuously resets after a hitless rebuild on a node that does not have redundant controller cards. The hitless rebuild could be caused by the user via the resetcd command or it could be a true hitless scenario. - Other unknown problem can occur due to this defect, this release note will be updated as investigation reveals them. Conditions: The following conditions are needed for this problem to occur. 1) The node needs to have a large configuration, that causes non-hitless memory allocations to overflow into the hitless memory region. Overflows can be detected by using the service level command (dspprf r t). The column to the far right indicates the number of overflows that have occurred. On a 64M controller card, when the overflow count for the second pool region (PL02) is non zero, that indicates that a non-hitless memory allocation has overflowed into the hitless region. On a 32M controller card, when the overflow count for the first poll region (POOL) is non zero, that indicates that a non-hitless memory allocation has overflowed into the hitless region. BEWARE: The overflow counts can be cleared. If the command (dspprf r t c) is issued the overflow counts will have been cleared, and you will not know if you have overflowed into the hitless memory regions. However, you can tell if and when the command has been cleared, by the "Last Cleared" time stamp at the top of the screen. If it is a value other than "Date/Time Not Set" then it has been cleared. If your node does not have memory overflows into the hitless region, then these problems cannot occur. 2) The first memory block in the hitless region is an overflow memory block of size 1. The service level command (dspalloclocal #region#) will display data for the locally managed regions -- our hitless regions. #region# can be 5 for region HITLESS1 (on 32 and 64M CC's), or it can be 15 for region HITLESS2 (on 64M CC's). The memory blocks listed are in the order that they are in memory. Therefore if the first entry (top left corner) of the first page of dspalloclocal's display is a size 1 overflow block this problem can occur. To determine if this block is a overflow block invoke the service level command (dm) on the address under the "cntl" column. The value should be a 0xC0 or an 0x80. If it is an 0x80, then this is an overflow allocation. 3) An overflow block of size 1 follows an overflow block of any other size, or it follows a memory hole (unallocated memory). The dspalloclocal screens can be searched for overflow blocks of size 1, using the method explained in (2) above. If the preceding block is an overflow block of any size, then these problems can occur. NOTE: There are several 10's of thousands of possible memory blocks, this scan can take a long time. 4) The final key is if the card undergoes any hitless rebuild, whether invoked by the user or not. Any hitless rebuild, that occurs when the node has the first memory block as a size one overflow or a size one overflow following any other size overflow, will cause one of the before mentioned problems. |
CSCdm67358 - Continued | Customer Impact: 1) The active controller card can abort due to a memory limitation error logging 3000000 errors and aborts, followed by various other memory errors such as 502, 589, 504 or 501's. If there is a secondary controller card it will switch over, and can possibly lead to impact #2 listed below. If there is no secondary controller card, or the secondary controller card is not in "Standby" state, then the active card will undergo a hitless rebuild and can lead to impact #3 listed below. 2) The standby CC can undergo an unknown number of watchdog timeout (WDTs) continuously resetting itself. This will be evident by the active's log indicating that the standby card is reset due to a WDT (IGX) or a system reset (BPX). This is also evident by the dspcds screen showing the standby CC cycling between missing and downloading. 3) If there is no standby CC available to take over when the active undergoes a hitless rebuild, the active CC can: - lock up, not responding to any login attempts, appearing as UNREACHABLE by other nodes in the network. - Undergo an unknown number of watchdog timeouts, and continuously restart. Workaround: 1) Avoid causing a user hitless rebuild via the resetcd command. 2) If the standby or active card becomes unresponsive or continuously resets itself it can be resolved immediately by pulling and reseating the controller card that is having these problems. Or the customer can wait for an unspecified amount of time until the memory cleans itself up. However, we've seen the card resets last for longer than a day, before someone pulled the card to reset it. Further Problem Description: When we are freeing overflow memory during a hitless rebuild and an overflow block of size 1 is the first block of hitless memory or the block of size 1 follows a memory hole or another overflow block, the memory step counter increments incorrectly and we jump forward an incorrect number. In this jump, we can skip other blocks of overflow memory that should be freed but are not, causing a memory leak which can then eventually cause a 3M abort. Or this jump can take us to a memory block that is apart of a larger memory allocation, and therefore has no forward jump counter, at which point we sit and continuously process that memory block, causing an infinite loop and eventually a WDT. Or this jump can take us to a memory block that is no longer in use, but still has its old value in it that can then cause a 1m3 abort because we are processing obsolete data. More investigation into exactly how these scenarios can be achieved as well as any other problems are being done, and this release note will be updated accordingly. |
CSCdm68678 | Symptom: Software error 633, traffic class displayed on cnftrk not cleaned up properly and "VC Shaping" configuration not shown in dsptrkcnf/cnftrk screen. Condition: dsptrkcnf/cnftrk done for an IMA virtual trunk. Workaround: None |
CSCdm69180 | Symptoms: The command cnftrk on UXM feeder trunk when executed currently allows the channel count to go below the used channel count on the UXM feeder trunk. This has been blocked. Conditions: Executing the cnftrk command and lowering the channels to a value less than the used value. Workaround: None |
CSCdm69421 | Symptom: The traffic types displayed on cnftrk/dsptrkcnf have garbage. Condition: None Workaround: None |
CSCdm69834 | Symptom: The default service class template is set to 2 (instead of 1) if upgrading from 9.1.00 to 9.2.10. Condition: This happens only when upgrading from 9.1.00 to 9.2.10 (directly, 9.1 -> 9.2.10 OR via 9.2.00, 9.1.00 -> 9.2.00 -> 9.2.10). Workaround: This will have an impact only if VSI is used in the network. Different scenarios: 1. If VSI is used in 9.1.xx and the network is upgraded to 9.2.10, then this is a show stopper - the VSI conns can loose continuity. All interfaces will have templates set to 2 (PNNI template) instead of 1 (MPLS template). MPLS network SHOULD NOT be upgraded from 9.1 to 9.2.10 - instead it should be upgraded to 9.2.20 (which will have this fix). 2. In all upgrade paths from 9.1 to 9.2.xx (xx < 20), the default template will be set to 2 for all interfaces. The template assignment can be modified using the cnfvsiif command if VSI is going to be used. |
CSCdm72193 | Symptom: Unable to addtrk or loss of continuity on UXM conns (may affect ports or trunks) Customer Impact: Loss of continuity or inability to add trunk. Configuration: UXM Workaround: None |
The following is the list of fixed anomalies in the 9.2.10 Switch Software delivery. Included with each is a brief discussion of the problem.
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
CSCdk21358 | Symptom: The MIB variable slotCardStatus does not show proper value. Conditions: The IPX/IGX/BPX SNMP agent reports the above MIB variable as active when there is no backcard installed. Workaround: None |
CSCdk26240 | Symptom: AIS alarm counts are not displayed for E3 lines and trunks when using the commands dsplnerrs line_num and dsptrkerrs trk_num. Conditions: The problem occurs on BPX nodes using E3 lines or trunks. Workaround: No workaround is available; however, the AIS alarm status is correctly displayed. |
CSCdk29716 | Symptom: Discrepancy in the "dspchstats" when comparing the two end points of a given PVC. More traffic appears on one side than the source sends. Conditions: After a switchcc occurs while connections are rerouting. Workaround: "dncon" and "upcon" will resolve this problem |
CSCdk33721 | Symptom: The connection got deleted because the update message sent from Master node is inconsistent with the Slave node. Software error 614 was logged. Condition: During graceful upgrade the software error 614 was seen. Workaround: None |
CSCdk51121 | Symptom: The command dsplnalmcnf only shows the line alarm configuration, it does not show the trunk (packet line) alarm configuration. Impact: The customer must use a round about way to view the trunks statistical alarm configuration as detailed in the workaround. Condition: This will always occur. Workaround: We can use a round about method to display the current line and trunk statistical alarm configuration. This can be done by invoking cnflnalm. Then from the list of alarms, choose one that is only relevant to trunks (i.e. Tx NTS C Dscd). You will then be prompted for the "Alarm Class?" immediately hit the <DEL> key to cancel the command. The screen now has the configuration for 8 statistical alarms, one of those is the alarm you specified. |
CSCdk51259 | Symptom: Only for the UXM and BXM can NMS get the information of slotBackNumPort from the MIB. Conditions: When query from SNMP Workaround: None |
CSCdk55034 | Symptom: BIP8 errors are received at 10E-3 and the line/trunk is in MINOR alarm. The line/trunk MAJOR alarm threshold is configured at 10E-3 (cnflnalm command). Condition: When BIP8 errors are received on an E3 line or trunk at a rate of 10E-3, the line or trunk will not go into a MAJOR alarm state. The line/trunk will instead go into a MINOR alarm. Workaround: Change the MAJOR alarm threshold for BIP8 to 10E-4 using the cnflnalm command. |
CSCdk65743 | Symptom: Software error 52 in dspswlog with VT_1 as running process Conditions: One-time occurrence of a watchdog timeout on a BCC while VT'd in from another node Workaround: None |
CSCdk69040 | Symptom: The wrong error message is reported: "SVC caching: timeslot(DS0) for this channel already in use". Conditions: Number of LCNs (channels) is used up on the remote BXM port while adding a connection. Work Around: 1. Verify the error condition by adding the same connection to the BXM port as a master end. Message "No channels left on this line" indicates the problem. 2. Allocate more channels on the port use command cnfrsrc so you can add the connection to the port. |
CSCdk77005 | Symptom: 1000003 abort in SNMP process Conditions: After an ARP request is received by the switch with the network id of the senders address different than the network id of the switch subsequent walks of the ARP table will cause a 1000003 abort. Workaround: Remove walks of the switch ARP table or set the SNMP get community string to NOACCESS. |
CSCdk87933 | Symptom: Some connections are deleted after network flood is cleared. Conditions: In the lab where faulty hardware is used to simulated flood, after flooding is cleared, there are some connections being deleted. This problem is caused by the network messages that are circulated in the queue using the faulty hardware. Network messages were corrupted causing the switch to interpret the network message incorrectly and the connections are deleted. Work Around: None |
CSCdm02272 | Symptom: dsplogcd 112 5 cmd entered and screen freezed Conditions: The card is BXM-T3/E3 and sonet mode attribute has bad value. Use "dspcmi p" to examine the value. It is bad if the value exceeds 6. Work Around: Patch sonet mode to 0. Please contact Cisco for the operation. |
CSCdm04262 | Symptoms: The OAM loopback test may be failing on a DAX conn with endpoints at 2 cards on the same node. When the OAM capability is disabled on one card, the OAM loopback failure condition is also cleared at the other card which still has the OAM capability enabled. Conditions: This happens only on a DAX conn using 2 cards. Workaround: None |
CSCdm04372 | Symptom: The response of an SNMP query of the object atmPortIfType is wrong. oc12-smf(10) is returned for a BXM T3/E3 card. Conditions: When query BXM T3/E3 cards. Work Around: None |
CSCdm04812 | Symptom: dspstatsinfo is counting a connection terminated at a feeder trunk. Conditions: If there are connections terminated at feeder trunk, they are included in the summary of the connection count. Workaround: None |
CSCdm14446 | Symptom: 3-byte frames routed over a UXM trunk on a frame forwarding connection between a UFMU and a UFM port are not being received by the other end. Condition: If transmitting 3 bytes frames on a frame forwarding connection between a UFMU and a UFM port, routed over a UXM trunk, the frames get corrupted at the UXM card on the transmitter node and hence are discarded by the receiver node. Workaround: Do not transmit frames of size less than 5 bytes on a frame forwarding connection between two UFMU connections routed over a UXM trunk |
CSCdm18555 | Symptom: For the following conditions, the user either cannot add yred or is reported with false mismatch alarm. The user does not get any benefit by upgrading to the enhanced UXM card because of the mismatch. Condition: 1. Cannot configure yred for mixed UXM cards if in standby mode. Cannot configure yred if in active mode and the primary card is enhanced while secondary is non-enhanced. 2. The switch issues false mismatch alarm under any of the following conditions: * For standby yred UXM card pair, when change the secondary card from non-extended card to extended card. * For mixed yred UXM card pair, when upgrade from release 91 to release 92. * For active non-yred card, when change from extended card to non-extended card. * For active yred card pair, when change the secondary card from extended card to non-extended card. Workaround: None |
CSCdm19544 | Symptom: dspchstats command does not show OAM Rx: AIS when line is failed in 9.2.1F. This works properly in 9.1.09. Condition: On an FR-ATM conn (Axis-BPX), fail the FRSM line. This should show AIS for connections on the BPX on the dspcon and dspchstats screens. Workaround: None |
CSCdm24031 | Description: If old 9.1 firmware is burned into a new enhanced BXM card, then the card will not function. Solution: The user interface should be able to verify that the version of firmware is correct for the card before allowing it to be burned. Workaround: Be careful when choosing the correct version of BXM firmware before burning it. |
CSCdm29600 | Symptom: Unable to add connections. Addcon command errors such as "Local resources unavailable or Network Expansion not allowed" or "Local channel unavailable" may be displayed. Commands such as "dcct t" will produce swerrs 374 and 752. (For 9.2, this only occurs on BPX; IGX works OK) Conditions: Command "dvc #" (where # is a number between one and the maximum number of VCs supported by the switch) for an unused VC shows "VC #0" on a BPX running release 9.1. Only VC 0 should have "VC #0". A VC with an invalid VC index may also have an invalid connection type for an uninitialized VC. If the first "dvc #" screen has "VC #0", "Exists : 0", and "Con Type : ADPCM", attempting to display the second screen will probably cause a 1000003 abort. Do not use "dvc" on an IGX. It will probably cause a 1000003 abort without displaying the first screen. This problem is observed after a non-graceful upgrade from release 8.4 to release 9.1 or on BPX from release 9.1 to release 9.2. There is not a problem with - graceful upgrades, or - non-graceful upgrades from releases 8.2.xx (xx = 55 or higher) or 8.5, or - non-graceful upgrades of IGX from release 9.1 to release 9.2. The problem is that VCs which were used for connections that were deleted in the previous release will have a VC number 0. There is not a problem with VCs which are used for connections, or which have never been used. Workaround: Audit the standby BCC. If the standby BCC does not have the "VC #0" set for VCs other than 0, and other standby databases are updated, perform a switchcc. Do not reset the standby BCC prior to the switchcc, as this will send the invalid active BCC "VC #0" over to the standby BCC for used VCs. Unused VCs will not be updated the standby CC. If the active BCC is in better condition than the standby, the standby BCC may be reset prior to the switch. The used VCs with index 0 will be auto deleted during database cleanup performed after the switch. Do not use "dvc" to audit an NPM/C. Prior to performing the switchcc, enable connection logging to the event log (cnffunc) so that any connections that are deleted as part of the database cleanup can be identified. If a non-graceful upgrade was performed because a standby CC was not available, loadrev the 9.1 release into flash, then rebuild the node a second time in 9.1 (the first rebuild was the non-graceful upgrade). (Use 9.2 instead if that's the release you are using) Further: The SW initializes the VC number for all VCs when the node rebuilds. In the case of a non-graceful upgrade, SW maps the BRAM from the old release to the new release after the rebuild. The VCs are mapped one at a time. A VC is mapped by clearing all fields (all fields initialized to 0), then mapping the values from BRAM. This mapping is performed for all connections that exist in BRAM. Connections that do not exist in BRAM have their LCON index set to 65535 (-1), but the other fields are not mapped from BRAM. VCs which have never existed (never been used for a connection) are not processed by the BRAM mapping software. Thus the VC number initialized by the rebuild initialization SW is not cleared by the BRAM mapping SW. |
CSCdm36631 | Symptom: APS activated alarm trap #20101 seen for T3 trunk. Conditions: A T3 trunk was modified using cnfrsrc command. Workaround: None Further Problem Description: The trunk object structure in the BPX has some fields reversed from the definition in the external interface specification. Cisco WAN Manager is coded according to the specification and so it interprets the max_channels_per_port field as the APS slot/port fields. |
CSCdm37694 | Symptom: Software error 9082 was seen after upgrade Condition: A race condition. The channels on the card were not reorganized the 9.2 way before reprogramming messages were sent to the card. Workaround: Not needed |
CSCdm37802 | Symptom: Software error 706 logged. Conditions: This problem occured when HDM fails the self test continuously due to the bad hardware. Workaround: Disable the HDM selftest by executing the cnftstparm command. |
CSCdm39210 | Symptom: A cnfrsrc on the trunk connecting a Tag Switching Controller to BPX does not allow the MAX PVC LCNs to be more than 10. Condition: BXM yred pair 1) disable VSI partition on trunk 3.3 2) dntrk 3.3 3) uptrk 3.3 4) cnfrsrc 3.3 Got "PVC Channels(256) Can not exceed (10)" message Workaround: None Description: The underlying problem could be that there is an APS channels halved attribute mismatch. |
CSCdm39227 | Symptom: CAC allows oversubscription. Conditions: Any environment Workaround: None |
CSCdm39836 | Symptom: Whenever NMS like CiscoView inquires about UXM back card and whenever we have E1 backcard with BNC type of connectors, we send UAI-E1 as enumerated value. Now, NMS inquires about port and finally get as DB-15 as connector type. If we have BNC type of connector, we end up in giving wrong back card - connector info to NMS. Condition: UXM with E1 back card and BNC type of connectors Solution: Use CLI to find out type of connector ("dspcd <slot>") or do not reply for SNMP query for UXM with E1 backcard with BNC connectors. |
CSCdm39871 | Symptom: SNMP walk will show some revision for ARM backcard. Condition: Have ARM card inserted with backcard. Workaround: None |
CSCdm40006 | Symptom: dspblkdfuncs did not list VT as being blocked as blocked for all but 9.2 - (VT not listed at all) Conditions: Mixed networks of 9.2 and earlier releases Workaround: None needed |
CSCdm40707 | Symptom: software error 4229 logged. Condition: switchcc was performed on a bpx having connections. The bpx was previously upgraded from rel 9.1.09 and the connection (due to which the error was logged) was added in release 9.1.09. Workaround: None |
CSCdm41274 | Symptom: Software errors 514, 589 on delyred following switchyred with a BXM and another BXM supporting more number of channels (BXM-E) forming the yred pair. Conditions: This software error occurs when you addyred two BXM cards, replace the secondary with another that supports more number of channels (BXM-E), switchyred and then delyred. Workaround: In a redundant BXM setup, do not replace the secondary with a BXM that supports more number of channels (BXM-E), and do switchyred. As a workaround replace the primary instead. |
CSCdm41406 | Symptom: Minor alarm regarding high CPU usage gets logged after rebuild or switchcc of a loaded node, and never clears. Conditions: Fully loaded node and rebuild Workaround: Ignore. There are no bad side effects except for the minor alarm indication. |
CSCdm41415 | Symptom: "Connection Channels" field is missing from dsptrkcnf and cnftrk screen. Conditions: N/A Workaround: None |
CSCdm41881 | Symptom: Software errors 514, 589 and 502. Condition: Under rare circumstances the first fragment of a message did not match the following received fragment causing buffer overwrites. Workaround: None |
CSCdm42754 | Symptom: 1) The active, or standby has non-zero interval statistics counts (as displayed by dspstatparms) thereby indicating that TFTP interval stats are enabled. However, TFTP interval stats are not enabled as indicated by dspstatparms' "Object Count" field showing zero objects, and the "Interval Stats:" field indicates DISABLED. This is being referred to as stats being partially enabled. 2) The standby controller card logs a software error 2000000 and then resets itself once. 3) The standby controller card logs the software error 2000000 and then resets itself at the regular interval of 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 minutes. 4) After a controller card switch over, the new-active controller card logs the software error 2000000 and then reset itself. 5) After a controller card switch over, the new-active controller card fills the software error log with software error 136's. Conditions: The steps leading up to the various symptoms listed above are similar, but not quite the same. They are explained as follows: 1) The partial enabling of TFTP stats will occur if: a) The customer has a redundant controller card. b) TFTP interval statistics are enabled. c) The active controller card does a hitless rebuild At this point the standby will have TFTP interval stats partially enabled, when they have actually been disabled. d) A controller card switch over is done. At this point both the active and the standby will have TFTP interval stats partially enabled, when they have actually been disabled. 2) The single 2000000 and standby rest will occur if: a) The customer has a redundant controller card. b) TFTP interval statistics are enabled. c) The active controller card does a hitless rebuild d) A controller card switch over is done. e) The same set of TFTP interval statistics are enabled, as done in step b. When the active creates its TFTP interval stats file at the end of its file interval, it will send a message to the standby to do the same. However, when the standby stumbles across some of the TFTP interval stats that where partially enabled (see FURTHER PROBLEM DESCRIPTION below), the 2000000 is logged and the standby controller card is reset. However, when the standby resets all of the partially enabled TFTP statistics are deleted. Note that the active has its global statistic data structure indicating that stats are enabled, so when the standby update mechanism enables the statistics on the standby it will obtain acceptable initializers from the statistic global data structure and the problem "corrects itself". 3) The standby "2000000 and reset" scenario will occur if: a) The customer has a redundant controller card. b) TFTP interval statistics are enabled. c) The active controller card does a hitless rebuild d) A controller card switch over is done. |
CSCdm42754 - continued | NOTE: Statistics were not re-enabled. In this case the active has its global statistic data structure cleared, but it incorrectly has statistics enabled (See FURTHER PROBLEM DESCRIPTION below). Periodically, the active will send an update to the standby to roll its statistic buckets. At this time, the incorrectly initialized statistics will log a software error 2000000 and then restart the standby. These restarts will occur at approximately the bucket interval rate. We say approximately, because it generally takes longer than 5 or 10 minutes for the secondary card to become fully updated. 4) The scenario for the active controller card logging a software error 2000000 and then resetting itself will occur under the following conditions: a) The customer has a redundant controller card. b) TFTP interval statistics are enabled. c) The active controller card does a hitless rebuild d) A controller card switch over is done. e) Prior to a statistics bucket interval completion, another controller card switch over is done. Prior to the last switch over the standby has incorrectly initialized statistics. Some of the initialized values are zeros. When we switch over, the card starts using some of the fields and logs the 2000000 and then restarts. However, after the restart, the situation has cleaned itself up. 5) The scenario for the active controller card filling its log with 136 errors is the same as for scenario 4. The difference here is that symptom 4 was discovered in an earlier release, but the root cause was not tracked down, so instead preventative code was added to avoid the 2000000 and restart, and simply log a 136 and continue. This scenario will not clean itself up. The 136 software errors will be logged at a high frequency until the work around is enacted. Workaround: 1) Symptoms 1, and 3 can be resolved by doing the following: a) Enable statistics b) Disable the statistics. At this point, dspstatparms should indicate that interval statistics are disabled, and the statistic tally counts should also be zero. c) Reset the standby controller card. Realistically the standby should have disabled all of these statistics, but to make absolutely certain I recommend that the standby controller card be reset. 2) Symptom 2 corrects itself, however, I would still recommend following work around #1 to be absolutely certain. 3) Symptom 4 also corrects itself. However, to avoid symptom 4 from occurring in the first place, the following preventative steps can be done. a) After any hitless rebuild, validate that the standby agrees with the active regarding the state of statistics. If the standby has a non zero statistic count, while the active has a zero statistic count, then follow the steps for work around #1. b) Prior to doing a manual controller card switch over, follow the instructions for step a) above. |
CSCdm43471 | Symptom: After upgraded from 8.4 to 9.1 or from 9.1 to 9.2 Cisco WAN Manager can not see switch software FRM, VOICE and DATA connections anymore. Only FRM to ATM endpoint connections showed. Conditions: Problem exists on upgrade to Release 9.1 switch software from Release 8.2, Release 8.4 or Release 8.5, or to Release 9.2 from Release 9.1. Workaround: 1. Delete connections and re-add or 2. Rebuild Further Problem Description: After upgrade from 8.2, or 8.4, or 8.5 to 9.1 Cisco WAN Manager can not see SWSW FR-FR connections, voice connections, and data connections anymore. Only FR to ATM endpoint connections are not affected. |
CSCdm44056 | Symptom: APS Annex B connection is not defaulted to bi-directional. Condition: After adding APS Annex B line Workaround: Use cnfapsln to configure the line to bi-directional Description: Even though the default says uni-directional, BXM firmware will only use bi-directional internally for Annex B. |
CSCdm44387 | Symptom: Software error 1433 was sometimes logged on the Standby. Conditions: Customer typed command 'dspstbyclk'. Workaround: None Further Problem Description: The only side effect of this bug is the logging of software error 1433. |
CSCdm44587 | Symptom: Software error 29 is logged. Condition: Adding additional trunk from the neighbor node with the port number greater than 8, and the neighbor node is running release 9.1 while this node is running 9.2 before the fix. Workaround: This software error is harmless, just delete it. |
CSCdm44973 | Symptom: After a line or trunk alarm is modified, the alarm information is displayed on the top line of the screen, overwriting the "Line/Trunk Alarm Configuration" text. Workaround: None is needed. The command works correctly, it is just the display that is incorrect. |
CSCdm45274 | Symptom: 32K channels of BXM-E card not available until "resetcd h" is done Conditions: Replace the regular BXM active card with an Enhanced BXM card Bring up the BXM-E card in standby state 32K channels will not be available until the card is reset Workaround: None |
CSCdm45592 | Symptom: The most common symptom is that when TFTP interval statistics are enabled the software error log is filled with software error 2068's and 504's. However due to the nature of this defect, it is hypothesized that this could also lead to the aborts 1000003 and 2000000. Conditions: This occurs under the following conditions: 1) The customer has UXM ports 2) The customer has TFTP interval statistics enabled on the UXM ports. 3) A hitless rebuild occurs. After this point, the hypothesized effects could occur. If the customer then enables TFTP interval statistics again (which the SCM will do automatically when it discovers TFTP interval statistics have been disabled after the hitless rebuild) the software error log will fill with the 2068's and 504's -- but it will then clean itself up. Meaning that there is no longer a threat of the aborts and no further 2068's or 504's will logged (unless another hitless rebuild occurs). Workaround: Do not enable TFTP interval statistics on UXM ports, or disable the hitless rebuild functionality. Further descriptions: The problem is that the handle (pointer) to the linked list of memory used for monitoring TFTP interval statistics is not being correctly initialized on a hitless rebuild. After a hitless rebuild, the handle is referencing memory that is no longer allocated. Initially it has it will still have its old data (we do not clear out all memory on a rebuild) so it appears that we are pointing at valid memory. However, because this data is not allocated, it can be allocated for something else related to statistics at which point we now have two different handles to the same memory. If the allocation changes the data format, which is almost guaranteed. It is hypothesized that incorrect handle could, in the worst case, abort because the old data is no longer maintained, or simply cause one of several other possible statistics related errors. Similarly, the old handle could change the memory, clobbering the memory because it does not really own the memory, which could then cause the real memory owner to abort, or cause any other possible statistics related error. When TFTP statistics are enabled after a hitless rebuild we first check to make sure that all existing TFTP statistics are disabled, however, these handles appear to be pointing at existing statistics. When we go to free them, we first log a 2068 because this does not coincide with our internal statistics accounting, then we log a 504 because we are attempting to free memory that has not been allocated yet. Finally, after all of this has occured, we will correctly initialized the handle and then start the enabling process correctly. |
CSCdm45812 | Symptom: Forced or manual APS switch causes a switch to opposite line then requested. Switch software and BXM firmware may get out of sync. Conditions: Performing an APS switch to a line which is already active. Workaround: Perform an APS clear switch on the line (switchapsln option 1). This should get swsw and BXM firmware back in sync. Description: BXM Firmware cannot handle getting a command to switch to a line which is already active and requests that swsw block such a switch. |
CSCdm45889 | Symptom: Software errors 509 and 101 logged Conditions: This occurs when firmware debug command response from the card is processed immediately after the node rebuilds or after a switchover. There is a very remote chance for this error condition to occur. Workaround: Avoid issuing rsh command before a switchcc or node rebuild |
CSCdm46095 | Symptom: Software error 526 appears. Condition: Adding, deleting, or displaying an APS line Workaround: None Description: This is the result of a display problem in the code. There is no affect on BPX operation. |
CSCdm46601 | Symptom: Software error 116 (BAD_OBJ_RESP) seen close in time to when UXM cards were being reset or during switchccs or rebuilds. Conditions: Card resets Workaround: None |
CSCdm46790 | Symptom: dspswlog has SWERR 501, possible ABORT 3000000 (3M). dspprf r t shows overflows from DYNM region. dspprf m t shows high memory usage in TRNS process. nwstats shows a very high number of received bandwidth updates (fcode 80 has one of the highest message counts). Conditions: When the bandwidth for a connection is increased the nodes along the connection path are locked until the process is completed. If there are multiple nodes attempting to increase connection bandwidth at the same time there may be a collision if the connection paths go through the same node. A collision is when a node attempts to lock a node that is already locked. When this occurs, the locked node sends a message saying that it is already locked, and the locking node aborts the lock on all nodes along the connection path. If there are changes that affect adaptive voice connections a node will broadcast a message to abort a lock. The memory leak occurs whenever a node is locked for a bandwidth change, and receives a message to abort the lock. It is possible that this could happen while bandwidth is changed due to user configuration (frame relay connection configuration) or FAX/modem upgrade, but it is unlikely due to the low rate of change and the low probability that a locked node will receive a second request to lock. The memory leak is most likely to be observed in networks which have PCM, ADPCM, or LDCELP connections, and have adaptive voice enabled (cnfswfunc) because the bandwidth lock abort message is broadcast to all nodes. Workaround: Use cnfswfunc to disable 'Adaptive Voice'. Switch CC after disabling adaptive voice to free any leaked memory. If adaptive voice cannot be disabled, monitor the network for memory accumulation and switch CC if memory accumulation is observed. Use existing memory accumulation maintenance guidelines to determine when a switch CC should be performed. Existing audit scripts for SW release 8.4.xx will need to be modified for changes to the memory display screens. Further Problem Description: The SWSW will be changed to not leak memory when a node which is locked for a bandwidth update change receives a message to abort the bandwidth update lock. |
CSCdm47814 | Symptom: Software error 9000, indicating an improperly aborted selftest, after uptrk or upln on a UXM. Condition: No special condition. Workaround: Turn off the selftest or wait for it to finish when activating the card. |
CSCdm48694 | Symptom: CMGUI for the ATM ports of a BXM card is not available. The message "No ports on this card" is printed on selecting the pop-up port for the card. Condition: BXM card is a yred card and the command "switchyred" was given for this card to change the status of the primary card to standby. Workaround: switchyred back to the primary card (if possible) should solve the problem. |
CSCdm49385 | Symptom: In case of Controller Card Redundancy, hitless rebuild may cause switchover and new standby card may never come out of hitless rebuild. Condition: During Hitless Rebuild if some null pointer/ memory corruption is detected, which in turn again triggers hitless rebuild and so on. Workaround: Force FULL REBUILD on standby card |
CSCdm49988 | Symptom: BXM cards went to mismatch when upgraded BPX nodes from 9.1 to 9.2.01. Condition: The cards upgraded firmware from MCC to MDA were OK in 9.1.08 until upgraded to 9.2.01. Workaround: Provided the memory patched to correct the pg_max_lcns = 16352; (16320) |
CSCdm51212 | Symptom: 300000 Abort logged on the standby BCC of a BPX node with 16K connections Condition: If a full rebuild is done on a BPX node having a card with all 16,000 connections on the same card. Workaround: Not to have 16K connections on the card. With 15K connections on the card and no other connection on the node, this symptom has not been seen. |
CSCdm54599 | Symptoms: This problem is likely to manifest after a switchcc or an upgrade and results in loss of continuity to a large number of connections. Workarounds: The best way is to clean up the database manually (change memory) Other things are more drastic and not fool-proof, including deltrk / addtrk, and node rebuild. |
CSCdm54814 | Symptom: There are several symptoms of this defect as follows: - After a rebuild or switch over software error 549, 886 and 2071's are logged. - One or more software error 928's are logged when a UXM line is upped. - The switch indicates that "Maximum number of logical ports exceeds" but there are fewer than 65 UXM lines up. - A UXM line disappears from the 'dsplns' output after a rebuild or switch over. Conditions: This can occur on an IGX that has frame relay lines (FRM, UFM, etc.) as well as ATM lines (UXM), a rebuild is done and then lines are deleted. See Further Description for more information on how this can come about. Workaround: This problem is essentially caused by the logical line and logical port databases getting out of synch with each other (see Further Description). The defect resolution for CSCdm43412 has corrected the code so that these databases can no longer get out of synch. However, once the databases are out of synch, they will remain out of synch and cause the symptoms mentioned above until the databases are cleaned up as follows: 1) Do a dsplns to obtain a listing of all of the IGX's lines. 2) Filter out all of the lines that are not UXM lines. 3) Do a 'dsplogcd 10 slot' for each slot that has these lines, and obtain the logical port number from page 3's output. Find the logical port number for each line 4) Sort the logical ports in ascending order to make the next step easier. ---Now comes the tedious part, finding the corrupted logical port entries--- 5) For each logical port entry (1-64) that IS NOT being used for a line, do the following steps. 6) If the slot is 33, but the port state is other than 0, then we have an entry that will eventually cause a 928. Note all such logical port entries. 7) If the slot is not 33, then we have an orphaned logical port, which will never be deallocated, and will decrease the total number of ports that can be upped on the switch. Note all such logical port entries. ---- Now comes the cleanup ----- Background: When we allocate a UXM line, we start at the first logical port entry and search for the first available, logical port. The logical port is available if its slot value is a 33 and its state is 0, inactive. We will need to up lines so that there are no "free-log-port-holes" in the logical port database. I.E. Suppose you had 3 line up and they used logical ports 1, 3 and 6. Moreover, suppose you had 4 corrupted logical port entries (an orphan or one that will cause a 928) and these 4 corrupted logical ports where at 2, 7, 8 and 9. Then the "used" logical port entries would be 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8 and 9 and "free-log-port-holes" would be at 4 and 5. This means that the next two lines that are upped will use 4 and then 5, respectively. To be able to clean up corrupted entries 7, 8 and 9, we will need to up two lines to fill the "free-log-port-hole". To cleanup we need to get the on-line and BRAM databases in synch, which can be done as follows:
|
CSCdm54814 - continued | 8) Up lines to fill the free logical port holes. 9) Starting with the largest corrupted logical port entry we found and working backwards, do the following: a) Invoke 'dlprt' on the logical port entry, and obtain the memory address of the logical port entry from the field "Address:" b) The memory location for the slot field is (address + 42), do a patch memory to change the value to a 0x21 (33). This sets the slot to NULL_CD. c) The memory location for the port state is (address + 4), do a patch memory to change the value to a 0x00. This sets the port state to 0 (inactive). d) Up a line -- it should use this logical port entry. Validate that it uses this entry by doing a 'dlprt' on the entry. The slot and port should match what the line just upped. e) down the line you just upped. This will remove the software and BRAM entries for this line and logical port entry, and update the standby so that its software and BRAM are also up to date. This logical port entry has now been cleaned. f) Repeat the above steps for each corrupted logical port entry, working from the largest to the smallest corrupted logical port entry. Further Description: Prior to the fix for CSCdm43412 we could get the logical line and logical port databases out of sync, as follows: logical line logical port upln FRP 1 n/a upln UXM 13.4 2 1 upln UXM 13.2 3 2 Then when a rebuild, or switchover occurs the UXM's logical ports will get out of sync. as follows: logical line logical port upln FRP 1 n/a upln UXM 13.4 2 2 <<<<< upln UXM 13.2 3 3 <<<<< Now if we do a down line on 13.4 it will also deallocate the logical port #2, which really belongs to line 13.2. We are now in a state where 13.2 has its logical line entry, but its logical port entry is no longer there. Moreover, the logical port entry #1 has no corresponding logical line entry. Now if we load an image that has the fix for CSCdm43412 in it, when we rebuild or switch over we will correctly set the logical ports, however, for line 13.2, it no longer has a logical port entry. So software will log a 549, and later 886's and 2071's will be logged, for the same reason. Moreover when an upln is done we attempt to retrieve the first available logical port entry, as indicated by its slot being NULL_SLOT (33). We will stumble across the logical port entry that was incorrectly de-allocated when we downed line 13.4 earlier, but we also check the corresponding configured bit -- it should be cleared -- but the bit is set because this entry was not correctly de-allocated. The result is that a 928 gets logged. |
The following is the list of fixed anomalies in the 9.2.01 Switch Software delivery. Included with each is a brief discussion of the problem.
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
CSCdj15839 | Symptom: False power supply over voltage or under voltage alarms reported Condition: A bogus minor alarm is generated on IGXs running 8.2.10 for power supplies with hardware revisions AR and AS. The commands dspalms and dsppwr show the problem. Workaround: Run the command 'off2 8'. This will disable all monitoring of the power supply, not just voltage. Fail status, temperature, and voltage will not be collected if "Power Supply Monitor" is disabled. Another workaround is to downgrade to a power supply with a hardware revision below AM (but NOT AM). Additional Information: With this fix in place, voltages and alarms are properly reported for nodes with PEMs installed in all PEM slots; however, a minor alarm will be reported for an empty PEM slot. Please see DDTS document CSCdm14418 for further information. |
CSCdj31366 | Symptom: The clrcnf command does not utilize a double confirmation prompt prior to acting on the users instructions. The warning message is also based on an understanding of the node/switch management operations. Workaround: Do not issue the clrcnf command unless there is the desire to erase the database and cause the node/switch to be removed from operations. Correction: An enhanced display screen with flashing lights and detailed operational messages in used in conjunction with a double confirmation prompting input request. |
CSCdk21503 | Symptom: Software error 921 may be logged when accessing atmTrunkStatsTable using SNMP get operation on an AIT/BTM/ALM trunk. Conditions: The above software error is logged when the above MIB variable is being accessed via an SNMP get operation on IGX/IPX node. Work Around: None. |
CSCdk28204 | Symptom: A software error 526 appears if a card failure event log string is longer than what can fit on the display screen. Conditions: This problem can be created if a dspswlog is done for the screen on which the long string is present. Workaround: None |
CSCdk29850 | Symptom: The protocol type value for an FRP port in the Cisco WAN Manager database is 0. Conditions: Whenever a FRP port is added to the node, the Cisco WAN Manager data base is updated and receives a message with the protocol type field in it. This field can have the value 1. Workaround: Treat the value 1 as a "Non signalling value" (2) |
CSCdk32046 | Symptom: E1 CCS Frame relay lines continue to send Yellow alarm to the remote end after a failure (red alarm) due to cnfclnsigparm 9 being set to 'YES'. Conditions: When an E1 configured for CCS fails and cnfclnsigparm 9 is set to Y. The E1 line will send yellow alarm to the remote end and will continue to do so even after LOS Red alarm is cleared. Workaround: Issue cnfclnsigparm 9 N to disable: 9 CDP & CIP Condition CCS Lines? [YES] |
CSCdk40766 | Symptom: The modem session for an UVM connection failed. Conditions: The modem session always fails for a local (dax) UVM connection. About 5% chance of failure for an inter-node connection. Workaround: No work-around. |
CSCdk47079 | Symptom: Software tries to access the invalid memory entry cause the ABORT when user executes the dth command. Condition: While doing the dth command, and the memory is corrupt thus cause the switch abort. Software error 1000003 is logged. Workaround: Make sure you clean up the unexpected event first. Do cth then dth. |
CSCdk52672 | Symptom: If a connection is added from a node to some other node which had just done a switchcc, the connection gets deleted. Conditions: The slave endpoint of the connection should be on a node which just did a switchcc. Workaround: Connection additions should be done approximately 10 minutes after switchcc. |
CSCdk56688 | Symptom: When trying to execute the command hipri, get the error messages. Correct the earlier error and then execute it, it may come up with another error and so on. Conditions: Need to execute the hipri command when it's supposed to work. Workaround: Login into the control port with the proper privileged level and then execute the command hipri as the first command immediately after login. This really isn't the workaround, just the way it's supposed to be. |
CSCdk69440 | Symptom: 'dspprf' shows IDLE very low when many UVM cards in IGX chassis with switch software 9.1.04 Conditions: 'dspprf' is as low as 27% Workaround: When turning off either 'off2 1' or 'off2 10' or 'off1 16' parameters the idle time rises to over 70%. Disabling Modem Test (off1 16) will disable modem upgrade detection capability on the node. |
CSCdk69498 | Symptom: The A-Bit status of a connection is not correctly displayed on LMI failure at the user end over a frame relay NNI link. Conditions: Environment is not an issue as this happens on the customers network and in the LAB with just a single node. This problem has only been seen on 9.1.03 and 9.1.04, although it is suspected in all releases of 9.1, 8.2 and 8.5 have been tested and work correctly. Workaround: None |
CSCdk72199 | Symptom: Trunk Capacity is not displayed correctly on a DSPLOAD of an IMA group. Trunk on UXM and IMA T-1 Back cards. One end of the IMA trunk shows a reduction in available receive bandwidth though all physical lines are clear of alarms. Connections fail if their bandwidth requirements exceed the available bandwidth on the reduced side. Conditions: This has been observed when IMA physical line failure and repair events occur in rapid succession. Workaround: Three possible workarounds are available: 1. Call TAC and have them issue manual updates 2 command. 2. Delete and re-add the trunk, if possible. 3. Set the number of retained links equal to the total number of physical lines in the IMA trunk group. If the loading problem was encountered, workaround 1 or 2 must be done first. |
CSCdk74438 | Symptom: The job does not take 8/8 option. Conditions: N/A Workaround: Manually create the connection. |
CSCdk82927 | Symptom: Slow response and time-outs when telnetting from CAT5000 or NMS workstation to IGX switch LAN port running 9.1.04. Most of telnet sessions disconnect after 5 minutes. Average delay is between 3-4 seconds for telnet connect. Conditions: Relatively new switch without large quantity of traffic running on it. telnet, tcp, nwip, and snmp are set to defaults. Lan is configured with IP, subnet, gateway, and default port number. Switchcc does not increase telnet connect time. Workaround: Telnet from a NMS workstation with acceptable telnet delay set above 4 seconds. |
CSCdk83511 | Symptom: When issuing a 'tstconseg' on a connection endpoint, the software passes a returned F5 OAM Segment loopback with a correlation tag different from what was sent. This is in violation of ATM Forum specification UNI 3.1 section 3.5.3.2 But CLI indicates test passed. Conditions: BPX switch software: 9.1.04 BXM firmware: M.B.Y 'tstconseg' on a connection endpoint Workaround: None Further Problem Description: Non-compliant with ATM forum, ITU and Belcore specifications. |
CSCdk87005 | Symptom: The addcon command using the avoid satellite links in 8.5 and 9.1 needs to have all the optional parameters entered as stars before the *s can be used. i.e. addcon 8.1.100 igx32-1 9.1.100 4 * * * * * * * * *s Shouldn't need the starts for optional parameters. Condition: Always happens Workaround: Use the full command for specifying restrictions (with the *'s for the optional parameters). |
CSCdk91395 | Symptom: A vague error message ("BW PARAMS: Unknown response (xx)") is returned to user when a connection's remote PCR value is configured to a value higher than the maximum port speed. Condition: This happens when the cnfcon command is executed. Workaround: None |
CSCdk92892 | Symptom: There is no obvious symptom when this problem occurs. This problem consumes more trunk bandwidth than what the connection needs. Conditions: This problem occurs to the G729 connection only. The problem occurs when a FAX session is terminated from active state. When a G729 connection upgrade to the FAX session its bandwidth is configured to be 64Kps. When the FAX session is over, the connection's bandwidth should be configured back to 8Kps. But due to the software bug the connection's bandwidth remains in 64Kps. Workaround: dncon and then upcon. Further Problem Description: There will be no any problem to the connection when this problem occurs. The only problem is that the system bandwidth is not used efficiently. |
CSCdm05373 | Symptom: Most of time no specific symptom shows up. Sometime channel configuration may be corrupted. Conditions: When a channel configuration changes this problem may occur. But if the default channel configuration is used then there is no problem. Workaround: Reconfigure the channel again. |
CSCdm07825 | Symptom: When the customer enables TFTP interval statistics with an invalid configuration the switch logs a 2065 and the SCM receives the following error string: Node=l2a Undefined TFTP Error num=28 text=021, Bucket interval (5m/300s) is not a multiple of Invalid obj type polling interval(900s) Condition: This will occur when the customer attempts to enable statistics with an invalid bucket interval. Bucket intervals must be a multiple of the switches largest polling interval. i.e If the switches largest polling interval is 15 minutes and 5 minute buckets are enabled, then that would trigger this error. Impact: This has minimal customer impact. The switch is logging a software error because it cannot correctly formulate the return error string. This then means that instead of telling the customer which object type has the largest polling interval it will say "Invalid obj type". However, it still specifies how large the largest polling interval is, therefore the customer still has enough information to correct the problem. Workaround: None |
CSCdm10020 | Symptom: Both the BPX routing node and the IGX feeder node are at 9.1 level. After upgrading the IGX feeder node to 9.2, the LMI communication between the 9.1 BPX routing node and 9.2 IGX feeder node is broken. Conditions: The problem only occurs when the feeder node is a 9.2 IGX and the routing node is a 9.1 BPX. Work around: Upgrade the BPX routing node to 9.2 before upgrading the IGX feeder node to 9.2. |
CSCdm13012 | Symptom: Upping the 32nd log interface results in BXM cards going into failed state. Condition: BXM supports only 31 Log Interfaces per card. But software allows 32 logical interfaces (31 virtual trunk and 1 port). Bringing up the 32nd log interface will result in card going into failed state. Workaround: Bring down the last port/trunk which was upped and reset the card. Make sure that we do not configure more than 31 log interface per card. |
CSCdm15043 | Symptom: There may exist dangling lcns, which indicate one less connection to add on the card. Conditions: There are two conditions when this may happen: 1. If addcon fails with "Warning: Inconsistent shift mode" 2. After executing the command rbldcondb, if there are software errors 614 & 612. Workaround: Switchcc will clean up the dangling lcns. |
CSCdm16904 | Symptom: Processor card repeatedly sends message 0x52 to the UXM card for all the dax connections. Condition: Dax connections are added on an IGX node, with %Util less than 100. Switchover is performed. Workaround: Dax connections cannot have %Util less than 100. Do not add dax connections with %Util less than 100.
|
CSCdm17109 | Symptoms: Software error 526 appears in the error table. Description: This can be caused by running certain user commands, such as dsptrkerrs. The problem occurs when the command is run on a trunk or physical line with a long address, so the address does not fit in the space available. This causes a minor alignment problem in the display. Workaround: The software error 526 is not an indication of any problem beyond the display misalignment. Just clear the error table. |
CSCdm20480 | Symptom: Incorrect card state Conditions: When a failed UFM card is exchanged with another UFM, this problem occured. Workaround: Remove the card and plug the card back in. |
CSCdm20716 | Symptom: When switching controller cards, some connections for which this node is a VIA or SLAVE node may reroute. Conditions: Occurrence is related to the presence of Virtual Path Cons (VPC). When a switchcc is done on a slave or via node for a VPC, there is a chance that one unrelated con could reroute for every VPC. There is also a chance that the VPC may reroute. Graceful upgrade of a node can cause this to happen, too. Details: VPCs may have conids that are duplicates of conids assigned to VCCs. The VPC conid space is managed separately from the VCC space. Trunk translate verification of the neighbor update message currently tries to match the trunk xlat entry from the VCC space against the con info for the VPC. This inevitably does not match, and the VCC con is rerouted. When there is no VCC con with a conid matching the VPC, no con is rerouted, though a swerr 331 occurs if the Neighbor Update Debug switch is on. Cons appear to recover properly after the reroutes. Workaround: None |
CSCdm22316 | Symptom: Traffic going out of the vsi feeder endpoint will be mapped to the wrong vpi/vci. Conditions: A connection is added from a VSI feeder endpoint to any other endpoint. Traffic is passing from the other endpoint to the VSI feeder endpoint. Workaround: There is no workaround for this. |
CSCdm23206 | Symptom: Command cnfcon gives the following error message: "Extraneous value entered, ignore and continue (y/n)? " Condition: Command cnfcon was given for an ATM non-dax connection, such that all the parameters were entered on the command line at the same time, rather than entering one by one. Workaround: None. However the problem is harmless unless you need to give cnfcon in a script file. Just press 'y' and enter the value of the parameter 'Trunk Cell Routing Restrict' if/when prompted. Command would work fine. |
CSCdm23489 | Description: After a graceful upgrade from 9.1 to 9.2, connections throughout the network were manually downed and then upped using the UI commands dncon and upcon. Most of these tests completed successfully. However, on one node, not all of the conns were successfully upped, and a software error 514 was logged. Workaround: It is not clear whether there could be a problem with either the dncon or upcon command. Use them only when necessary. |
CSCdm23669 | Symptom: The port got the wrong value FFFFFFFF. This value is out of range of the port number allow. Condition: This happen when a trunk is deleted. It happen for 9.2.0I in regression network Workaround: None |
CSCdm24282 | Symptom: Software error 1000003 logged. Condition: Command cnfch was executed for a BNI trunk. Workaround: None |
CSCdm25268 | Symptom: After upgrading from 9.1 to 9.2 The feeders are in loop. Conditions: The problem only happens after an upgrade from 9.1 to 9.2 on a BPX/IGX node with feeder(s) attached. Workaround: None |
CSCdm25595 | Symptom: Upon upgrade (9.1.09 to 9.2.0J) some connections were seen by the dspcons command but not seen using the dspcon command. Conditions: None Workaround: If the problem is that of dangling logical endpoints. They can be deleted by deleting and re-adding the connection |
CSCdm26897 | Symptom: Free the memory for IP relay message. Condition: This problem is seen when Cisco WAN Manager continuously ping the SES feeder over an UXM feeder trunk. The memory allocated for these message was not free correctly. Workaround: The problem will not occur if there is no ping message from Cisco WAN Manager to the SES feeder. |
CSCdm27681 | Symptom: YRED UXM/IMA trunk cards came up as mismatch after graceful upgrade from 9.1 to 9.2. Conditions: UXM cards are burned with 9.2 UXM firmware before the upgrade. IMA compliance is a new attribute in 9.2. When the switch is gracefully upgraded to 9.2, only non YRED IMA trunk cards inherit the new attribute while the YRED pair will flag the mismatch condition. Work Around: Delete the YRED pair before the graceful upgrade Re-add YRED after the graceful upgrade. |
CSCdm28561 | Symptom: Software error 4225, 614, 534, 612, 4208, and 3058 are logged. As mentioned in the Eng-note and Description, the 4225 error caused the rest of the errors to be logged. Condition: The 4225 error was logged on a node which has jobs that do switchcc, full/hitless rebuilds, delcon/addcon, and rrtcon. WorkAround: None |
CSCdm28721 | Symptoms: Software error 532 logged. Conditions: Run deltrk with invalid slot number between 16 and 32 Workaround: None |
CSCdm29043 | Symptom: Card error 0x25010022 appears. Conditions: A BXM with APS 1+1 trks/lines configured reports card errors when node rebuilds. Work around. None needed, should self correct, and program correctly when active card is configured. Description: The standby card is being configured and programs the active card's card redundancy channel before that card is ready, causing card errors. |
CSCdm29706 | Symptom: To configure HCF shift to "on" or "off" on a port, the connections must be deleted and the port downed and upped. Workaround: Delete all the connections, down the port, change the parameter, up the port, and re-add all the connections. |
CSCdm30018 | Symptom: The "Trunk cell routing restriction" may not be prompted for ATM connections when executing the addcon command. Condition: This happens only on IGX and occurs intermittently (may or may not happen). Workaround: If connection is being added between IGX-BPX, execute the addcon from the BPX side. For an IGX-IGX connection, there is no workaround. The trunk cell routing restriction will be set to FALSE except for VPC connections. |
CSCdm30262 | Problem: When we have vtrk up on one port and then we up a trunk (vtrk) with multiple ports grouped i.e. IMA trunk, we can add the above port and IMA port group by "cnftrk" command. This should not be allowed as the port where we upped the vtrk before upping an IMA trunk, belongs to different trunk. Workaround: Do not add ports in "cnftrk"-> IMA port group option, with vtrks upped on those ports and are not part of this IMA group. |
CSCdm30359 | Symptom: addcon for a dax path connection fails with error "Local channel unavailable". Condition: Tried to add a dax path connection as follows: >addcon a.b.c.* <node_name> x.y.z.* Where a connection such as x.y.c.d already existed where c is not equal to z and d can have any value. Workaround: - Delete the connection x.y.c.d if possible or - Change the vpi of a.b.c.* to a value say 'n' such that connection x.y.n.d does not exist, where 'd' could be any number. |
CSCdm30608 | Symptom: Software error 55 (BAD_CD_TYPE), after using addalmslot on an ARM card. There are more subtle problems, such as line statistics not being polled / responded to properly, and other statistics related errors occurring. The database becomes corrupted for a slot (usually 4, but could be 12,20, or 28) The corruption can be seen by doing dspcmi l <slot> Workaround: Don't use addalmslot; or, don't use above mentioned slots. If those slots must be used, then activate the slots after addalmslot has been done. |
CSCdm31674 | Symptom: In a T1 (CCS) environment, IGX cannot notify PBXs of a connection failure within the network. Conditions: In a T1 (CCS) environment -- in which T1 channels do not use Robbed Bit Signalling (RBS), and channels status information is conveyed between PBXs in a d-channel -- IGX cannot notify the PBXs of a connection failure within the network since the d-channel is carried transparently through the IGX network. Workaround: None Further Problem Description: In a voice E1 CCS environment, there is an super-user IGX command to handle this situation: cnfclnsigparm, option 9. If the option is enabled, IGX generates an alarm for a whole circuit lines if any channel connection in that line is failed in the IGX network. |
CSCdm32384 | Symptom: Comm. fail or no continuity on connections after switchcc or hitless rebuild. Condition: The comm. fail happens because a blind channel LCN was reallocated to a routing channel on a BXM card when the node is in switchcc or hitless rebuild mode. BXM routing channel rebuild is done a little later after local rebuild is done which leaves a window of possible LCN reallocation and may cause either comm. fail or no continuity on connections. Workaround: Avoid rerouting or adding connections while the node is in switchcc or hitless rebuild. |
CSCdm33967 | Symptom: After upgrading from 9.1 to 9.2.00 some BXM trunks go briefly into Comm Fail. Conditions: There is definitely a race condition here. Otherwise the rule is that a trunk s.p goes into Comm Fail, if trunk s.(p-1) exists. Workaround: None Further Problem Description: All Comm Fails are caused by data mismatches due to a change in 9.2 that moves up transparent channel programming by one channel. |
CSCdm34282 | Symptom: The maximum route cost of a connection could be incorrect after a graceful upgrade from release 9.1 to 9.2. Conditions: This problem only happens during 9.1 to 9.2 graceful upgrade. Work around: Re-configure the maximum route cost of a connection by using the CLI cnfrtcost. |
The SNMP IGX/BPX switch SNMP MIB is being provided with the delivery of Release 9.2.20 Switch Software.

1. Support for Multiple VSI 2.2 partition (two partitions)
There were no new features introduced in release MED
There were no new features introduced in release MEC.
There were no new features introduced in release MEB
1. VSI version 2.2 (single partition)
2. ITUT Annex B and configurable SD and SF thresholds for SONET Linear APS on BXM-OC3 and BXM-OC12 (1+1, 2 card, 1:1).
The current default thresholds are as follows:
| BIP Count | Condition |
|---|---|
10^-4 | SF detected |
10^-5 | SD detected & SF clear |
10^-6 | SD clear & SF clear |
1. Support for Virtual Trunking
2. Support for BXM Multi-Level Channel Statistics
3. SONET Linear APS on BXM-OC3 and BXM-OC12 (1+1, 2 card, 1:1)
4. Support for card based LMI and ILMI
1. The OC-3 MultiMode Fiber backcards do not support Y-cable redundancy.
2. Upgrade from VSI 1.1 to VSI 2.2 is supported in this release. It is not a graceful upgrade. See the upgrade section on page 11 .
3. Customers currently operating MPLS with the 9.1 switch software and MCx firmware should note that either they can run 9.1 with MCx or 9.2.10 or above with firmware MEA. They can not intermingle software and firmware releases for MPLS as they run different VSI versions.
BXM cards with MCB/MDA firmware or later can be smoothly migrated to the MEC version of firmware by using y-cable redundancy. To upgrade a BXM card pair in y-red configuration, first upgrade the standby card with the MEC firmware version and wait for all the configuration to be downloaded into the card. Do a switchyred to switch to the card with firmware MEC and burn the other card also with MEC firmware. Follow the standard firmware upgrade procedure for downloading and burning the firmware into the cards.
1. RAS features: OAM loopback test and traffic generation capability
VSI 1.0 is obsoleted by VSI 2.2 in this release.
1. M.E.D/M.F.A is fully compatible with 9.1 and 9.2 Switch Software. It has not been tested for compatibility with 8.4 or 8.5 Switch Software. It is compatible with IOS version 12.05t2 for MPLS
2. While upgrading from firmware, on OC3, 1 port OC12 BXM cards, if stats level on BXM is greater than 1, the upgrade should take place according to the one of the upgrade procedures below to avoid the card mismatch.
Step 1 Upgrade SWSW to 9.2.30 or higher
Step 2 Upgrade the firmware to MED/MFA
Step 1 Upgrade firmware to MEC
Step 2 Upgrade SWSW to 9.2.30 or higher revision
Step 3 Upgrade firmware to MED/MFA
3. Firmware MED and earlier supports APS Redundancy on Legacy BXM only.
4. Firmware MED and later supports APS Redundancy for both Legacy and Enhanced BXM.
5. Burning firmware should not be interrupted. Card resets in the middle of burn firmware will result in the BXM being maintained in the core state (Identified by blinking yellow LED), or failed state (Identified by a solid red led). In this case the dspcds screen will report the card as FAILED. This state can be recovered by reburning the firmware into the card.
6. Protection Switching based on BER on BXM may not comply to standards. The GR-253 & ITU-T G.783 requires that switching be completed within 60 msec from the time the error starts. BXM is unable to detect BER threshold crossing until the next poll, which occurs every 250 msec. Thus, switching time may be up to 250 msec under certain circumstances.
7. In APS 1+1 default configuration, both backcard LEDs show green when primary card is active and selection is from PROT line. When primary card is active and it is selecting from PROT, PROT backcard should be green, since it is carrying traffic. WORK backcard should also be green since that is the physical path for the primary (and active) card to pass traffic. So backcard LED green means the backcard is directly or indirectly carrying traffic and pulling the backcard will cause traffic disruption. (CSCdm53430)
8. In APS 1+1 default configuration and a manual W->P is on and a switchyred is issued, a manual W->P event is logged. By default, on switchyred the new active card comes up in "clear" state. But in this case since there is a manual W->P on, the APS line switches to PROT and the switching is logged. (CSCdm53404)
9. In APS 1+1 default configuration if the selected line is PROT and last user request is clear and a switchyred is issued, line switches to WORK. If the last user request is "clear", full automatic APS switching is in effect with the working line being active by default. When there is no last user switch request to switch to any particular line, the working line will become active. (CSCdm53420)
10. When APS Annex B is added to local end which has the Secondary card active, the APS trunk goes into Comm Failure for few seconds and then clears. If Secondary card is active, then do a switchyred to make Primary card active and then add APS Annex B. (CSCdm46359)
The following is the list of known anomalies for this release of BXM firmware:
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
CSCdm58375 | Symptom: OA CD Error on BXm T3 with Yred config. Condition: This error indicates that there is QE QDB SRAM parity error. Workarounds: There are no currently known workarounds. |
CSCdm62817 | Symptom: tstconseg command sometimes does not work Condition: execute tstconseg multiple times with high loop count (10). Workaround: None |
CSCdm64366 | Symptom: APS 1+1 manual switch sometimes does not work after a while after several manual switch and auto switch. Condition: Secondary card is active and several manual switch and auto switches are performed. Workaround: None |
CSCdm66131 | Symptom: After addapsln trunk goes to LOS Condition: Both ends have secondary card active, add aps 1+1 to one end, then add aps to the other end, the trunk sometimes goes into LOS. Workaround: Add aps when primary cards are active. |
CSCdm84853 | Symptom: Bandwidth reported via interface load info is erroneous. Condition: When Forward & Backward bandwidth for VSI connections is different. Workaround: None |
CSCdm92853 | Symptom: Signal degradation is not detected. Instead it is detected as SF. Condition: The SD, SF thresholds re-configuration does not work, so if one tries to change, these discrepancies occur. Workaround: Don't reconfigure, keep the defaults. |
CSCdp05098 | Symptom: Cell discards occur for ABRFST/ABRSTD conns when the traffic burst is greater than the MBS Condition: This occurs when the traffic burst size is fixed to 140000 cells at 70000 cps. The conn are configured with PCR=72000/72000, MBS=1000/1000 and ICR 7200/7200. This is the expected behavior since the configured MBS < the actual burst size. Workaround: Increase the MBS and ICR using cnfcon. |
CSCdp13304 | Symptom: On de registering the non-existent ATM address the BXM does not return an error. This is implementation error. Workarounds There are no known workarounds. |
CSCdp24393 | Symptom: The switchapsln/dsplog commands show no alarm at all but the MGX 8850 shows alarms |
CSCdp25734 | Symptom: VSI gets congested at high call rate over a long period, calls get rejected Condition: When back to back calls are getting programed over long intervals. Workaround: None |
CSCdp32233 | Symptom: The standby APS has LOS, after removed and reinserted the front card, the LOS got cleared. |
CSCdp32646 | Symptom: WTR timer does not work and reversion occurs on aps when connected to another APS device |
CSCdp34549 | Symptom & Condition: By doing bxm switchover many times it happens. Either of the stdby or active card fails. Workaround: If stdby card fails, just pull out the stdby card and put it back. There is no work around for active card fail. |
The following is the list of bugs fixed in release MED:
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
CSCdm53420 | Symptom: switchyred causes APS line to switch when last user request is clear Condition: APS 1+1 configuration. The protection line was active and the "last user switch request" was clear. When a switchyred was performed, APS line switched to working line active |
CSCdm93274 | Symptom: OC3 back card LED is wrong after reset/pull cards Condition: Multiple APS lines on a card and perform switchyred when Working line is active and Secondary card is active Workaround: None. |
CSCdm04312 | Symptom: The problem is a false failure is declared against the SIMBA Multicast Record RAM. Condition: The problem occurs when Self Test is activated against a Y-Redundant pair of BME Cards (BXM-622 cards loaded with the multicast BME firmware) that have more than 1000 connections programmed through them. Workaround: Disable Self Test via the cnftstparm command. |
CSCdm50659 | Symptom: Trunk alarms are not generated when random bit errors are injected onto a trunk using an Adtech Sx14 test set at a rate of 10E-3. There are trunk statistics generated but no trunk alarm because the statistics that cause alarms on do not meet the threshold for MAJOR or MINOR alarms. Condition: This was generated in a lab environment with test equipment that was set to inject bit errors randomly through the entire bandwidth. Some HCS errors were generated as well as Path unavailable and Path Far End unavailable. Workaround: Lowering the alarm threshold for MAJOR and MINOR HCS errors can help to generate a trunk alarm. Use the cnflnalm command and modify the HCS Error alarm thresholds to .01 for MAJOR and .0001 for MINOR. These thresholds are as low as they can be set currently. |

CSCdm92916 | Symptom: Operational commands (dncd, resetcd, remove) on standby card impact active APS line. When active line is PROT line and a switchover of cards occur, WORK line becomes active line on the newly active cards. Conditions: APS 1+1 Annex B and PROT is active line. switchyred or resetcd on the active card causes line to switchover from PROT to WORK. Workaround: none |
CSCdm92931 | Symptom: APS line switchover occurs upon card removal/insertion when lockout is set Conditions: When Lockout is set, removing/inserting the card makes it happen. |
CSCdm52585 | Symptom: DspVsiPartInfo shows very large Available LCN field. Condition: When the sum of min-lcns is greater than the max (max lcns) on a port group. Workaround: none. |
CSCdp18840 | Symptom: The CBR.2 Calls do not pass traffic above 50 Cells/second. Condition: VSI controller establishes CBR.2 connection and it does not fill in the PCR field. Workaround: Fill the PCR value also with the CR value. |
CSCdp17741 | Symptom: 2-port group card reports 1 port group at the channel stats level 2 and 3. Condition: When channel stats level 2 or 3 are configured on BXm-622-2 port and BXM-155 reports only one port group. Workaround: Auto Route connections are not affected by this.

CSCdm62809 | Symptom: APS 1+1 bidirectional non-revertible switches back to working line when line condition clears on working. Condition: APS 1+1 configured in bi direction non-revertible mode. Working line is in LOS, current active line is protection, clear LOS on working line. Workaround: None |
CSCdm65813 | Symptom: APS switches back to working line incorrectly. Condition: switch sequence W->P, P->W and then W->P, then cause LOS on WORK line and put the cable back, APS switches to Working line. Workaround: None |
CSCdm69974 | Symptom: Card errors (0x25170076) occur when only one Virtual Trunk is configured in a physical port. Workaround: To avoid this situation, configure at least 2 Virtual Trunks on any physical port that you have VTs on. When performing the configuration, make sure to configure the VTs one directly after the other. |
CSCdm74316 | Symptom: Re-adding VSI shelf does not work until a resetcd is executed on the LSC control port. Condition: Load information on an interface is 4 bytes more that MAX_VSI_MSG, So the message gets dropped on BXM, so VSI controller is in discovery state forever. Workaround: None |
CSCdm74968 | Symptom: 0B card error causing BXM to reset Condition: Over night jobs running on controller cards. Workaround: None |
CSCdm75722 | Symptom: No control VC after BXM is reset. Condition: When re-sync request comes down from the VSI controller with 19 checksum blocks, the length check done on BXM does not include padding. Workaround: None |
CSCdm77212 | Symptom: When addshelf command is executed, it comes back with a communication breakdown. Condition: Channel level stats is set to 0 so that BXM reports wrong max channels. Workaround: None |
CSCdm78335 | Symptom: dspvsistatus rarely shows the VSI programming status as Done Condition: primary and secondary port has two different VPI ranges. Workaround: None |
CSCdm80991 | Symptom: Unable to add 3 segment connections using CM GUI Condition: Feeder connected to BXM card of BPX routing node and for, BXM trunk configuration, ILMI/LMI protocol is enabled as CARD based. Workaround: None |
CSCdm82688 | Symptom: Traffic Shaping problems with VT with and without wrap around solution Condition: Large deviations in CDV values Workaround: None |
CSCdm90997 | Symptom: BXM-E trunk and port stats are always zero in TX direction. Condition: Port terminated on BXM-E card or trunk passing through BXM-E card. Workaround: None |
CSCdm93839 | Symptom: Card resets on receiving OAM loopback cells at high rate Condition: oamlpbk is enabled with high OAM traffic on large number of connections. Workaround: None |
CSCdm94372 | Symptom: Trunks sometimes drop CBR traffic Condition: If a trunk is configured to full line rate on BXM cards, then traffic is dropped Workaround: See The logic to calculate the actual cell transmission rate in a BXM card is as followed: |
CSCdp02190 | Symptom: tstdelay timed out when going through BNI trunk Condition: More than 12 VTs on an interface causes wrong port-vi mapping while considering STI_SHIFT/NO_SHIFT from 13th VT/port onwards. Workaround: None |
The following is the list of bugs fixed in release MEB:
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
CSCdm50469 | Symptom: Software error 105 and malloc card errors happened continuously Condition: When jobs that cause reroutes of connections (e.g. switchcc, hitless rebuild) are run for a long time, sometimes BXM card freezes with malloc card errors and software error 105. Workaround: None |
CSCdm50723 | Symptom: After deleting APS, switchyred causes temporary LOS when the other end still has APS. Condition: One end has APS 1+1, other end was added with APS 1+1 and line is up between the two ends. Then APS is deleted from one end. The primary card is active on non APS end. On switchyred on the non APS end there is a temporary LOS. If APS was never added to one end, then switchyred does not result in temporary LOS. Workaround: Instead of deleting APS first and then doing a switchyred, do a switchyred first and then delete APS. This does not result in temporary LOS. |
CSCdm63038 | Symptom: BXM card fails with breakpoint error. Condition: When tx cell rate of a trunk is reduced to zero, BXM card fails with break point error (division by zero). Workaround: None |
The following is the list of bugs fixed in release MEA:
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
CSCdm09882 | Symptom: Log non fatal message related to RCMP errors. Condition: It is mainly seen in the heat chamber. Workaround: None |
CSCdm18186 | Symptom: AIS status could be randomly be displayed in dspcon Condition: When the connection AIS signal is constantly changing, the dspcon/dspchstats OAM status will not be accurate for all the connections on the card. Workaround: None |
CSCdm26380 | Symptom: Software error 9098 occured during switchyred BXM Condition: This problem occurs on cards with the APS channels halved option set and then doing a cnfrsrc on a port that belongs to the second port group. Note that this fix will cause a card mismatch on active cards with channel halved option turned on. Workaround: None |
CSCdm31923 | Symptom: AIS/YEL alarm doesn't go away even after the alarm is clear from the other end. Condition: It happens on the E3 when the LOOP TIME parameter is set to YES in the trunk or line configuration. Workaround: None |
CSCdm37519 | Symptom: Trunks go to Communication Fail after burning firmware. Condition: When MC10 is burnt into BXM-OC12 with trunks. Workaround: None |
CSCdm37709 | Symptom: APS line fails to clear channel mismatch after lockout. Condition: Bi-direction APS 1+1. Local end has locked out of protection set. Then WORK cable is pulled out on local end to cause LOS. Lockout is then cleared and then the WORK cable is put back. This causes a channel mismatch on the far end and the mismatch never clears. Workaround: None |
CSCdm38647 | Symptom: This bug has been fixed in MEA such that the firmware reports the correct number of port groups. The side effect of this fix is that the Switch Software could mismatch the BXM card. If there is a card mismatch then down all the lines/trunks on the card and up them again. Condition: When the user loads the MEA firmware on the BXM card running MDA with APS halved channeled enabled, then the card will come up in mismatched state. Workaround: None |
CSCdm46658 | Symptom: switchapsln command does not work for APS AnnexB line. Condition: Annex B configuration if hitless rebuild is done when active line is PROT, then switchapsln does not work after hitless rebuild. Workaround: None |
The following is the list of bugs fixed in release MDA:
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
CSCdm44427 | OAM loopback test fails. OAM cells are discarded SYMPTOM: OAM RAS failures are indicated. CIRCUMSTANCES : Large bursts of OAM cells on 400+ connections FREQUENCY:.Intermittent WORKAROUND: None SOLUTION: Upgrade firmware to ABE |

CSCdm79456 | When IMA trunks are cross connected in a group the trunk fails to come up. SYMPTOM : Trunk does not add. CIRCUMSTANCES: On any IMA trunk of a group greater than 1with the lines cross connected FREQUENCY: Repeatable WORKAROUND : Connect the trunks port 1 to 1, 2 to 2 etc. SOLUTION : Upgrade firmware to ABE |
CSCdm80482 | SYMPTOM : Data rate of cells transmitted to the trunk when configured as a virtual trunk exceeds the maximum rate configured. CIRCUMSTANCES: On a virtual trunk when transmit data rate exceeds defined max. Actual rate depends on the configured rate. FREQUENCY: Repeatable WORKAROUND: Configure the max rate to a lower figure SOLUTION : Upgrade firmware to ABE |
CSCdm81325 | Loss of data on IMA trunks SYMPTOM : Data is discarded if AAL-5 data on some connections and not others. Other data types can have the data stream re-sequenced. CIRCUMSTANCES: On any IMA trunk of a group greater than 1. FREQUENCY: Intermittent. WORKAROUND: None SOLUTION: Upgrade firmware to ABE. |

CSCdp01315 | Symptom: VI rates are set incorrectly when a corrupted back card message is received. Circumstances: Very infrequent. Frequency: Infrequent. Workaround: Reset the card. Solution: Upgrade firmware to ABE. |
CSCdm38647 | Symptom: MDA fw may report incorrect number of port-groups when APS channels are set to halved. Condition: When user attempts to add all the channels available on the card on one port-group, it may be allowed even though the BXM may not have enough memory to support it. Also, this may cause a mismatch state when MDB firmware is burnt. Workaround: Down all the line/trunks on the card and up them again. |
CSCdm23713 | Symptom: VI numbers are not modified by firmware. Condition: When one or more trunks are failed in the network, there may be a combreak in the network. Workaround: Set all the Virtual trunks to restrict CC traffic. |
CSCdm23827 | Symptom: APS alarm may clear on switchyred. Condition: After a switchyred, an existing a LOS/LOF alarm may get cleared. This will only happen when the line has switched to protection before the card switchover is performed. Workaround: None |
CSCdm23752 | Symptom: BXM fw does not allow a networking channel on VTs to configured for egress only. Condition: BXM fw allowed configuration of networking channel to be bidirectional only. Workaround: None |
These release notes define the UXM functionality of Firmware version ABE which will operate with 9.1 and 9.2 Switch Software Releases
UXM firmware will operate under 9.1.XX software, so it can be loaded prior to upgrading Switch Software.
UXM firmware ABE introduces the following features:
1. Dynamic queue control to vary the queue performance as IMA trunks change throughput
2. Compatibility with AXIS IMATM-B cards
UXM firmware ABD introduced the following features:
1. Support for XLR backcard (2 ports)
UXM firmware ABA introduced the following features:
1. Support for Virtual Trunking
2. VC Traffic Shaping on ports only
3. Standards compliant IMA on E1 and T1 interface cards
4. Enhanced Multi-Level Channel Statistics, enables more statistics on each connection
5. Ports and trunks on the same card
1. On the UXM, for the OC-3 MultiMode Fiber backcards, no Y-Redundancy/hot standby is supported.
2. Traffic Shaping is a new feature on UXM card. The VC/VP traffic shaping shapes each individual connection by scheduling the cells using the WFQ (weighted Fair Queueing) technique to ensure appropriate conformance dictated by the service provider. In general, traffic shaping provides a tight control on each connection's CDV in order to meet carrier requirement. Also, it prevents any connection from dominating bandwidth resources. On UXM, the traffic shaping is on per port basis. Once the traffic shaping is turned on, then all connections added after will have traffic shaping on. For details, please refer to 9.2 feature description and commands.
Before upgrading to this release when UXM cards are to be used, certain legacy cards firmware must be upgraded. See the Compatibility Matrix for cards affected and the exact versions to be used.
For upgrades from firmware versions prior to ABA follow steps 1 through 3 else just burn ABB and perform step 3. Failure to follow this procedure may result in the card not operating. The card should be returned to Cisco if this occurs:
Step 1 First upgrade the boot code to 06 by using the same procedure as burning firmware, only specify the boot version in place of the firmware version. Use the C option over D as it is faster.
Step 2 When the boot code has been loaded burn the firmware.
Step 3 When Yred trunks are used the red alarm in/out values must be configured to 1.25/1.5 seconds or greater else INVMUX failures will occur and trunk failures will be observed during a Yred switchover. This is due to the IMA protocol and may cause re-route of connections. Use the cnftrkparm command
None
OAM Loopback Connection Connectivity Testing for Reliability and Serviceability
Auto link disable on IMA groups is no longer available as the ATM forum standard does not permit it.
1. Multi level Stats has to be configured as the card is initially configured in the down state. The higher levels of statistics make more information on each connection. As a result the maximum number of connections is limited as defined below
Lvl 0 = 8126 conns
Lvl 1 = 8126 conns
Lvl 2 = 8126 conns (UXM-E), 4030 conns (UXM)
Lvl 3 = 4030 conns (UXM-E), 1982 conns (UXM)
2. There is no 9.1 stats support for UXM cards that were shipped with 9.2 firmware since the UXM card has the default level 1 stats.
There is 9.1 stats support for UXM-E cards that were shipped with 9.2 firmware since the UXM-E card has the default level 2 stats. Level 2 stats include all of the needed to be 9.1 compatible.
Therefore, when using an UXM with 9.2, a user must either:
3. The UXM-IMA and MGX 8220 IMATM are not compatible if the IMA group contains only one T1 or E1 line. Since on the IGX-UXM trunk, the IMA protocol is invoked only if an IMA trunk consists of multiple physical lines, therefore, for a trunk with a single T1 or E1 line, the IMA protocol is not invoked. This implementation is different with MGX 8220 IMATM because the MGX 8220 shelf invokes the IMA protocol regardless of the number of T1/E1 lines in the IMA group.
4. UXM IMA trunk groups must use common clock. Independent clocking is not permitted.
5. On the UXM, for the OC-3 Multi-Mode Fiber backcards, no Y-Redundancy/hot standby is supported.
6. It is not recommended to combine ABR and UBR PVC's on the same network. ABR and UBR PVC's share the same QBIN (Class of Service Queue) on the BXM card. However, ABR (VSVD) uses a flow control mechanism which ensures that the traffic source slows down when the QBIN usage exceeds the EFCI threshold. However, UBR does not have a mechanism to slow down. Thus, UBR traffic gains an unfair advantage over ABR. This implementation is not considered a problem, since the decision to share a QBIN for ABR and UBR traffic was intentional, since any best-effort service that one would route over UBR can be routed over ABR (VSVD), with the additional benefit of protecting resources in the network. If there is a real requirement to use UBR PVC's instead of ABR (VSVD), then either (1) add all best-effort PVC's as UBR, or (2) isolate the ABR and UBR paths by using cnfpref and separating ABR and UBR endpoints.
7. Combining FBTC and non-FBTC connections within a Class of Service can cause FBTC connections to not receive a fair share of bandwidth. For example, if VBR connections are added at a terminating port, and some of these VBR connections have FBTC enabled while other VBR connections have FBTC disabled, the VBR connections with FBTC disabled may obtain all of the excess bandwidth before the connections with FBTC enabled receive any of the excess bandwidth. The same holds true for ABR or UBR connections. This only is relevant where FBTC and non-FBTC connections share a QBIN, either at a port or at a trunk.
For a complete list of firmware revisions supported, see the Compatibility Matrix document, which is included in this release package.
UXM model B uses standards compliant IMA protocol. This is not compatible with the previous proprietary IMA protocol in Model A firmware.
UXM boot code revision AB06 has no known compatibility issues with any released version of UXM hardware or firmware.
UXM firmware revision ABA requires UXM boot code revision AB06 be burned into the UXM card prior to burning ABA firmware.
There are no known anomalies in this release.

CSCdm50668 | Intermittent OB error 0c02 after hitless rebuild or switchcc Symptom: UXM experiences hardware error as below: vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv UXM in Slot 32: 494663 Rev BA22 ----------------------------------- Failure Type: Hardware Error Failure Time: June 10 1999 23:01:00 PST Hardware Error Event: 0B 29 00 A9 01 0C 02 80 10 07 A0 EE EE EE F2 00 00 00 10 00 00 FF 00 Error Fcode: 29 Failure Type: Unknown Processor Number: 01 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Frequency is about 1:50 "switchcc" or 'resetcd <NPM slot #> r' [hitless rebuild] with the UXM loaded with more than 1000 connections and stats collection turned on. Workaround: None Solution: Upgrade firmware to ABD |
CSCdm60528 | OAM status inconsistency after y-redundant switchover of UXM Symptom: Status of connections which traverse a UXM all show "Status: OAM-F" after a y-redundant switchover of that UXM. Conditions: There is a primary and a secondary UXM configured to be a y-redundant pair.'cnfoamlpbk' is enabled. After the y-redundant switchover, all connections which traverse the card enter "Status: OAM-F" about 10 minutes after the y-redundant switchover. Frequency is intermittent, but always after a y-redundant switchover. User traffic is unaffected. Workaround: Use the cnfoamlpbk command to disable OAM loopback testing. Solution: Upgrade firmware to ABD. |

CSCdm47513 | Symptom: RAS OAM.loopback shows failed at one end but OK in the other end. Conditions: After yred switch Workaround: None |
CSCdm48498 | Symptom: With more than 2000 connections routed across [or terminating on] a UXM, the UXM may produce a software error 103 and be automatically reset in about 1:5 'switchcc' or 'rrtcon *' commands. The failure rate increases to about 1:3 'switchcc' or'rrtcon *' commands as the number of connections routed across [or terminating on] the UXM exceeds 7000. When the UXM is reset, all connections are rerouted or temporarily down until rerouted. The UXM recovers, however, it may take several minutes to reroute all connections after the UXM is reset. Configuration: The UXM under test was running FW with baseline revision ABA. Software revision was baseline 9.2.01. For the test case, there were two ports and one trunk on the UXM of OC3 rate each, and traffic on the trunk was about 10% of a full OC3 rate. The connection types were mixed: 700 Interworking Gateway - terminating on a UFM. 1000 CBR - using default settings 500 VBR - using default settings 500 ABR - using default settings. Solution: A fix for the problem is found in UXM firmware revision ABC. |
CSCdm50668 | Symptom: UXM card sends up a card error: 0B with a 0C02 parameters. Conditions: Intermittently on switchcc or hitless rebuild Workaround: None |

CSCdm28864 | Software error 9081 on Y-redundant IMA trunks |
CSCdm28270 | Symptom: UXM trunk card went UNAVAILABLE after a graceful upgrade from 9.1 to 9.2. Condition: This happens occasionally with UXM firmware ABA. Workaround: None |
CSCdm44427 | Symptom: Connection terminating on a UXM or traversing a UXM trunk may fail the OAM loopback test [refer to 'cnfoamlpbk' command] and begin showing status 'OAM-F'. All connections traversing the problem UXM which have the OAM loopback test enabled will show status 'OAM-F' and fail all 'tstdelay' tests. Connections traversing a problem UXM trunk which do not have the OAM loopback test enabled will show status 'OK', however, will fail 'tstdelay'. Connectivity for real user traffic is unaffected in either case. The failure condition occurs and will pursist after the problem UXM experiences a short-term, large burst of OAM packets. Configuration: With 400 connections from each of 20 port cards which support the OAM loopback test, traversing a UXM trunk, and then terminating on 20 additional port cards on the other side of the trunk, the OAM loopback test enabled, traversing a UXM trunk, and then terminating on 20 additional port cards on the other side of the trunk, the failure will occur within a few hours of operation. Failure will occur within a few hours with following setup if all terminating port cards have OAM loopback test enabled: >15 UFM cards @ 400 conns each -> UXM trunk -> >15 UFM cards @ 400+ conns each '>15' greater than 15 terminating cards. The failure is unlikely to occur when there are fewer than 10 terminating port cards with connections which traverse a UXM trunk even though OAM loopback is enabled on all cards. Solution: With more than 15 or 20 terminating cards, there is a possibility of a short-term burst of OAM packets through the UXM trunk. This short- term burst of OAM packets may cause an internal OAM queue error condition. Previous versions of firmware could not recover from this error condition and stop passing traffic. It is necessary to reset the UXM in order to recover from the overflow condition. Firmware revision A.B.B contains a fix for this failure. |
FRP/FRM Model J & K (previously known as Model D & E)
Support for OAM RAS and Traffic Generation
This firmware is also compatible with older switch software release for the FRM. This firmware will work on all hardware revision though using the latest hardware revision is recommended.
The command burnfwrev is sufficient to upgrade.

CSCdm06254 | Description: When a 17 or less byte frame is received from the network and the DE bit is set on a CGW connection, the frame is interpreted as a supervisory frame and discarded. Because it is interpreted as a supervisory frame the dspchstats will not be incremented for this frame. Occurrence: Always occurs with short frames when DE bit is set on CGW conns. Note: This may occur if DE is enabled and the connection is above the CIR. This bug is only applicable to FW images with bug fix for CSCdk15283 (UXM CGW conns FST RA's are not timing out): FDZ/FEZ through FJA/FKA. This bug is N/A to SGW conns. FPRX Fix: rxfpproc.asm - only check for SPV bit if SGW conn (fix adds one line & a jmp label) mkasm.bat - new file to allow making on network |
CSCdm39606 | Foresight does not work on CGW conns |
CSCdk85613 | Description: Due to bug fix CSCdk15283 CGW Supervisory FastPackets were not correctly recognized and were being discarded, thus effectively disabling Foresight. |
CSCdk79082 | Description: addloclp on port doesn't loop data back to external equipment in FW revs since FDZ (a result of bug fix CSCdj71238) Fix: True simultaneous bi-directional looping (of CPE traffic to itself and of net traffic to itself) cannot be done through the hardware as is done in the Line Model. The solution to obtain both loops is to setup the SCC back to auto-echo mode (external CPE loopback, as it was in pre-Rev Z) and to loop all network traffic as if each of the conns were in remote loopback (by checking the port state). Because the network looping is not being done in the backcard (as was done for the Line) the following differences with the Line operation WHEN IN THE "addloclp port" STATE must be noted: 1. dspportstats shows no traffic (as it was in Port pre-Rev Z FW). 2. dspchstats only shows Rxd & Txd fastpacket stats (as if the conns were in individual remote loop) and not the Rxd & Txd frames & bytes (as with the Line Model in the addloclp port state). ACP Fix: dma_ctrl.c - check if port_ptr->port_local_lb set ftx_rxmb.c - loop if port_ptr->port_local_lb set |
CSCdm00120 | Other end of E1/T1 line gets 1 OOF error when up/dn port done |
CSCdj64969 | Description: Executing upfrport causes 1 OOF & 1 CRC err on other end of circuit line. Executing dnfrport causes 1 OOF on other end of circuit line. [This was due to a FW work-around for a HW lockup problem associated with the ATT Spyder chip and a PLD. A timing problem was fixed in the PLD in HW rev B which caused a Spyder dead HW error about every 10th upfrport/dnfrport.] Occurrence: Every time a upfrport/dnfrport is executed. ACP Fix: The FW now checks if HW rev B or greater exists in the backcard and skips the FW work-around. Thus, this bug is fixed for all HW revs >= B. dma_ctrl.c - skip FW work-around for Spyder (framer) lockup if not HW rev A or P01. Note: with old HW would previously get the following hardware error, 0B 00 06 99 01 D2 01 03 01 00 00 00 11 (11 = SPYDER_DEAD code). |

CSCdk93632 | Corrupt display when doing a dspchstats on the UFM Symptoms When doing a test delay on a service interworking connection the dspchstats shows incorrect values. This also causes packet drops to happen in the egress direction. Occurrence: Always happens after a tstdelay is performed on a service interworking connection. Workaround: Do not use tstdelay on a service interworking connection. |
