The following commands which are related to FRSM-2CT3 line level loopbacks.
At most one BERT test can be performed per shelf at any point in time. BERT can only be activated through the CLI.
Do not execute the restoreallcnf command in the middle of the installation process. If you follow the following steps:
Step 2 restoreallcnf
Step 3 install
Step 4 newrev
The dsplns command will display a line as disabled, but you cannot run an addln command. Do not execute the restoreallcnf command until the install and newrev commands have completed.
The correct order for the restore procedure is:
Step 2 install
Step 3 newrev
Step 4 restoreallcnf
(for more information, refer to CSCdm57683)
Addln should be issued before issuing addapsln.
The following line and alarm related commands have been modified to allow slots 8, 16 and 32 as valid arguments if PXM at slot 8 is active:
Full SRM redundancy requires redundant SRMs. There must be SRMs in BOTH slot 15 and 16 to ensure service module redundancy for the upper shelf AND SRMs in BOTH slot 31 and 32 to ensure service module redundancy for the lower shelf. Lack of the second SRM in either shelf may result in mismatch conditions.
For service module redundancy support, if the active service module is physically removed from the slot then a switchcc would cause the now active service module to be inaccessible. The workaround is to make sure that both the active and standby cards are physically present in their slots. If the active card indeed needs to be removed then at shellconn type: pmmStartScmPolling(slotnumber) after the switchcc.
If you are moving service modules from an existing MGX 8220 platform to the MGX 8850, the MGX 8220 service modules (AX-FRSM-8T1/E1, and AX-CESM-8T1/E1) need to have the boot flash upgraded to MGX 8220 Release 5.0.00 common boot code (1.0.01 version) before they can be plugged in to the MGX 8850 chassis. All MGX-8220 service module versions that use release 4.0.xx of boot code and earlier are not supported in the MGX 8850.
If loading of the correct common boot code image is required then it will have to be performed on an MGX 8220 chassis, and cannot be performed on an MGX 8850 chassis. Please refer to the procedure below, which is also outlined in the Cisco MGX 8850 Installation and Configuration publication on the documentation CD.
Step 2 Plug in the card into the MGX 8220 shelf
Step 3 Download the proper MGX 8220 shelf release 5.0 boot image using the following commands from the workstation:
tftp <ip address of the MGX 8220 shelf > bin put <boot filename> AXIS_SM_1_<slot#>.BOOT
Insure that tftp downloaded the appropriate boot code by verifying the flash checksums.
cc <slot #>'
Step 2 Verify that the two checksums are the same.
chkflash'
If NOT, repeat the process until they are the same. If they are the same, then you can safely remove the card. At this point the service module can be used in the MGX 8850 shelf.
![]() |
Caution If the checksums are not the same when you remove the service module then the service module will not boot when it is plugged in and the service module will have to be returned using the Cisco Returned Material Authorization process. |
Whenever an MGX 8850 is added as a feeder to a BPX 8600, SWSW automatically programs a channel with a VPI.VCI of 3.8 for use as the IP Relay channel. IP Relay is used to send IP data between nodes via the network handler; allowing every node in the domain to be directly addressable via IP addressing and CWM workstations to communicate with every node (especially feeders) using TELNET, SNMP and CWM protocols. If the user tries to add a channel with a VPI.VCI of 3.8, the BPX 8600 does not prevent the user channel from being added, but the MGX 8850 rejects it. To delete the added channel on the BPX 8600, and to get IP relay working you need to reset the BXM card.
In addition to clearing all the configuration, clrallcnf clears the network IP addresses. IP addresses and netmasks stay the same (dspifip). However, it's recommended by engineering to reconfigure them using the cnfifip command. Network IP is gone (dspnwip), and must be reconfigured using the cnfifip command. Refer to the entry on cnfifip in the Cisco MGX 8850 Command Reference publication on the documentation CD for syntax.
A minimum of two and up to four IP addresses are needed to be configured for MGX 8850 (one or more of the following: ethernet, ATM, SLIP) and the boot IP address. The user should use "bootChange" to set up IP gateway when the PXM card is just installed. The IP default gateway should be on the same subnet as the PXM board. Use the bootChange command to set correct IP address, netmask, and default gateway.
Do not install a Y cable on the UIA CP port for PXMs. If you do both serial ports will be enabled and you will not be able to communicate at all with the shelf through the console ports. If after switchcc standby PXM loses the downlevel port then it is due to a downlevel Beta version of UIA backcard that were shipped during field-trial only. Upgrading the UIA back card to the latest version should fix this problem.
To configure the external clock source, use the interface label 7.35. Do not use 0.33 or 7.33
There are also routeShow/routeAdd/routeDelete commands for modifying routing tables.
You must reboot your PXM after each modification with "bootChange" for it to take effect. Also make sure the subnet mask is 255.255.0.2
. bootChange
- Only enter the ethernet IP address, netmask and default gateway.
- Type "." to erase incorrect entries.

Configuration save and restore is only supported through the CLI (CWM does not support configuration save and restore).- Service module upgrades error handling is not provided. If the user skips any of the steps during upgrade or if a power failure happens in the middle of the upgrade, results will be unpredictable. See the Special Installation and Upgrade requirements section for service module upgrades. To recover from procedural errors contact your TAC support personnel.
The MGX 8850 supports 15 simultaneous telnet sessions and 10 tftp sessions.
You must use the following Y cables for FRSM-HS2 and FRSM-CT3 redundancy as specified in the Product Orderability Matrix (Straight Cable: 72-0710-01, Crossover Cable: 72-1265-01, Straight Y-cable: FRSM-HS2: CAB-SCSI2-Y, FRSM-CT3: CAB-T3E3-Y). Other cables are not supported.
Y cable redundancy for FRSM-HS2, FRSM-2CT3, FRSM-2T3, FRSM-2E3 is only supported for adjacent slots.
Statistics are not supported for the RPM.
There is no need to issue the syncdisk and shutdisk commands before removing the PXMs. The system quiesces the disk by detecting the removal of the PXM board and flushes the write buffers to the disk and puts the PXM in sleep mode. This disables any further hard disk access since it locks the acctuator. When the card is reinserted the PXM automatically comes out of sleep mode.
Syntax of "addlink" command has changed as follows:
New Syntax:
Syntax: addlink <T3LineNum> <T1Slot> <NumberOfT1s> <TargetSlotNum>
<TargetSlotLineNum>
<T3LineNum> where = Slot.Line
Slot = 15,31
Line = 1 - 3
<T1Slot> where T1Slot = 1 - 28
<NumberOfT1s> where NumberOfT1s = 1-8
<TargetSlotNum> where TargetSlotNum = 1-6|11-14|17-22|27-30
<TargetSlotLineNum> where TargetSlotLineNum = 1-8
PAR command "cnfnwip" has been disabled in this release, please use "cnfifip" instead.
If you lose power, or remove the on-line PXM you lose the broadcast address. Use the "cnfifip" command to configure the broadcast address. To re-define your ATM address and IP Address that are in the same subnet, you have to change the ATM address to a temporary address not in the same subnet, then add back your IP Address with the original Broadcast address, then go back and correct your ATM address.
Cooling and Power limitations: Customer should be aware of the need for extra power supplies and fans beyond certain limitations. A single fan tray will support all configurations that draw between 1200 and 1400 watts. For power requirements, the MGX 8850 requires a minimum of one power supply per line cord to support the power requirement for 5 cards.
| 0-5 cards | 6-10 cards | 11 and above | |
Single Line Cord (N+1): | 2 | 3 | 4 |
Dual Line Cord (2N): | 2 | 4 | 6 |
This is based on an estimated worst case power requirement of 190W plus margin per card slot.
CONNECTION MANAGEMENT RELATED
The name of the node cannot be changed if there are PVCs. The node name must be changed from the default value before adding connections, since it cannot be changed later. Use the cnfname command to change the node name.
Only one feeder trunk can be configured. No BNI trunk to MGX 8850 as a feeder is supported.
The slave end of a connection must be added first.
The slave end cannot be deleted and re-added back by itself. If you delete the slave end, the entire connection must be completely torn down and re-added back. If the slave end of the connection is deleted and re-added back by itself, then unpredictable results will happen.
For user connections, VCI 3 and VCI 4 on every VPI are reserved for VPC OAMs.
The actual number of feeder connections you can provision on the PXM is always two less than you have configured. (the dsprscprtns command shows max connections as 32767, but you can only use 32767 - 2 = 32765). One connection is used for LMI and another one for IP relay.
There is no error handling detection while provisioning through the CLI. Invalid endpoints and unsupported connection types (such as connections between FRSM-CESM ports or connections between structured and unstructured connections) are permitted using the CLI. The user should not configure these connections.
The sum of CIR of all channels of a port can be greater than port speed as long as CAC is disabled. However, it is not acceptable for one channel's CIR to be greater then port speed even if CAC is disabled. Two channels added up can exceed port speed. This means you cannot oversubscribe a port if only one channel is configured.
When trying to add a port on DS0 slot 32 of a CESM-8E1 line using an SNMP set or the CiscoView Equipment Manager, The SNMP agent in CESM will time out, without adding the port. The SNMP libraries treat the 32 bit DS0 slotmap (cesPortDs0ConfigBitMap) as an integer. The value for the last DS0 is treated as the sign value. This causes a corruption in the packet coming to the agent. As the agent does not receive a complete SNMP packet, it does not respond and times out. Use the command line interface to add a port on DS0 slot 32 of a CESM-8E1 line.
The cnfport command does not allow VPI ranges to be reduced. The cnfport command only allows the VPI range to expand. The correct sequence is to delete all connections on the partitions, delete the partitions, delete the port and add the port with new VPI range.
On an FRSM-2CT3, one can add 128 ports on a group of 14 T1 lines as indicated below.
lines 1 to 14 -- 128 ports (A)
lines 15 to 28 -- 128 ports (B)
lines 29 to 42 -- 128 ports (C)
lines 43 to 56 -- 128 ports (D)
So, to add 256 ports on one T3 one should add 128 ports on the first 14 T1 lines and the remaining 128 on the next 14 T1 lines.
Note that (A) and (D) are connected to 1st FREEDM and (B) and (C) are connected to the 2nd FREEDM. Each FREEDM supports only 128 ports. If 128 ports are added on one T3 as in (A), then there cannot be any more ports as in (D). The 129th port should be on lines 15 to 42 (as in B or C).
If the user adds a connection between an RPM and a PXM and then deletes the connection the RPM shows no connection but the PXM still has the connection. The MGX was designed and implemented in such a way that only the connections that have the master end show up on PXM (by dspcons command). Consider these three connections:
c1 - has only slave end,
c2 - has only master end,
c3 - has both master and slave end.
When using the dspcons command, c2 & c3 will be displayed, NOT c1. The connection will not show up once the master end (PXM) is deleted. Recommendation: When adding a connection, if one end of the connection is PXM, always configure the PXM side to be the slave. Thus when deleting the RPM side, which is the master, the connection will not show up on the PXM. However keep in mind that the slave end (PXM) still exists. This also provides a side benefit. When a connection exists with only the slave side, no bandwidth is occupied. The bandwidth is reserved only if the master end exists (with or without the slave).
The MGX-FRSM-HS1/B is capable of supporting a total throughput (card-level) of 16 Mbps. However, it is possible to configure 4 lines each supporting up to 8 Mbps, thus oversubscribing the card. This has been raised in bug #CSCdm71476 and a restriction/warning will be added in a future release.
Addlnloop on an FRSM-HS1/B line works only when there is a (valid) cable plugged in to the backcard on that line. This is a hardware limitation on the backcard and has been mentioned in the Release-notes in bug# CSCdm44993
The RPM is a NPE-150 based router card capable of sustaining 150,000 pps. With RPM versions earlier than 12.O.7T1, some limitations in Inter-Process Communication between the can cause the PXM to declare that the RPM has Failed, when the RPM is at high loads. To avoid this, with RPM software releases earlier than 12.0.7T1, throughput is limited to 62,000 pps, and it is recommended that MPLS configurations are limited to 100 interfaces.
With RPM software releases from 12.0.7T1, those limitations are removed.
In a separate limitation, the number of directly-connected OSPF networks supported by an RPM is currently limited to 27. This means that any or all of the 700 subinterfaces supported by the RPM can run OSPF, but the number of distinct OSPF networks supported is limited to 27. (A work-around is available and is discussed below.) The limit of 27 arises because of the overheads of supporting separate link-state databases for separate networks. In an application where the RPM is a Provider Edge Router in an MPLS Virtual Private Network service, a much better solution in any case is to use a distance-vector routing protocol between the customer routers and the RPM. A distance-vector routing protocol provides exactly the information required for this application: reachability information, and not link-state information. The distance-vector routing protocols supported by the RPM are BGP, RIP v1 and RIP v2, as well as static routing. With RPM software releases from 12.0.7T1, distance-vector routing protocols can be used with as many different networks as subinterfaces. Currently, the RPM supports 700 subinterfaces, and hence 700 networks with BGP, RIP or static routing.
Note that if the RPM is acting as a Provider Edge Router in an MPLS Virtual Private Network service, and even if OSPF is running in a customer network, it is not necessary to run OSPF between the customer router and the RPM. If the customer edge devices run Cisco IOS, they can redistribute OSPF routing information into RIP using the IOS commands redistribute rip in the OSPF configuration, and redistribute ospf in the RIP configuration. Similar configurations are possible for BGP. Using such configurations, the RPM with IOS software release 12.0.7T1 supports 700 customer networks which use OSPF internally. (For more information on readvertisement, see the "Configuring IP Routing Protocol-Independent Features" chapter in the "Cisco IOS Release 12.0 Network Protocols Configuration Guide, Part 1".) Redistribution is not unique to Cisco CPE, and other vendors' equipment also supports redistribution.
Recommendations for Booting:
The current implementation provides the following options:
From PXM Disk
NetBoot (TFTP server)
Booting from PXM Disk is faster than NetBoot.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Recommendations for saving RPM configuration
The current implementation provides the following options:
a. Save on flash / boot-flash.
b. Save on PXM Disk.
c. Save on network (TFTP server)
d. Save on RPM NVRAM (comes up faster; only for limited configuration size)
It is recommended to save the configuration on flash and on the PXM Disk, as well as on the network server. This ensures that the configuration can be restored; even in the case of multiple failures.
For example if an RPM card has problems, one can copy the configuration from either the PXM disk or from the network to new RPM card. In case of multiple hardware failures (both RPM and PXM cards have problems) one can copy the configuration from the network server.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Replacing the existing RPM with a new card or a card with old configuration in flash:
The existing configuration (of the old card) can be restored on the newly inserted card by following the instructions given below:
Step 2 Copy the old RPM's configuration (from the PXM disk or the network server) to the new card's bootflash (For example copying from PXM disk: "copy c: <image name> bootflash:").
Step 3 Configure the new card to use the configuration in its bootflash using the "boot config bootflash: <config-file-name>" command.
Step 4 Save the changes using "write mem" command.
Step 5 Insert the new card into the old slot.
Please note that in RPM context the "config save/restore" feature of the PXM only restores the PXM part of the RPM configuration/connections. The RPM part of the configuration should also be saved from RPM CLI through copy command (For example: "copy run c: <config-filename>" for saving to PXM Disk) for future restoration.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RPM Connection Resynchronization:
The RPM Connection Re-sync process is supported in the 12.04T and higher releases. This feature checks for consistency between the RPM and PXM connection databases. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do not execute the restoreallcnf command in the middle of the installation process. If you do, the dsplns command will display a line as disabled, but you cannot run an addln command. Do not execute the restoreallcnf command until the install and newrev commands have completed.
The correct order for the restore procedure is:
Step 2 Execute the install command.
Step 3 Execute the newrev command.
Step 4 Execute the restoreallcnf command
.(for more information, refer to CSCdm57683)
The Service MIB does not support resource partitions.
LIP is supported on the maintenance port, but there is no PPP support on the maintenance port.
BIS messages are constantly being sent from BPX to various nodes. This affects the frequency of TFTP updates, which may affect CWM performance and/or CWM database consistency.
Unable to provision virtual trunks in SWSW 9.1.10.
As a speedy way to wipe out all configuration on an SM, you can use clrsmcnf. This command works in the following scenarios:
To be able to use an SM of a different type from the current one in a slot you can also use clrsmcnf. For example, if there is a FRSM8t1e1 in the slot with some configuration and the customer wants to use this slot for an AUSM8t1e1 card.
clrsmcnf cannot delete a port or channel due to corruption or error locally on the SM. It is able to delete the port/channel from within the PXM, but it cannot delete a port or channel due to corruption/error on the PXM itself. You can save an SM configuration and restore it back to the same slot on the same node. If the SM configuration is corrupted on disk, but the run-time image is okay and the file contented is corrupted, this is supported.
The following are NOT supported on the MGX 8850:
If you have more than 500 connections on a service module, before issuing clrsmcnf you need to change the session timeout default value.
Use CLI command timeout 0 (no timeout)
clrsmcnf
after it is done
Use CLI command timeout 600 (to set the timeout value back to the default)
![]() |
Note clrsmcnf does not work with the VISM card. |
There are no system performance implication unless you take a core dump, currently the default error mask to take coredump is attached, you can change the mask or take it manually.
Set the core dump mask to its default value. If you enable core dumps with power on reset and shell reset core dumps enabled you will end up with a PXM that continuously dumps the core and resets. The only way out is to use a download boot that does not have the core dump feature.

CSCdm67177 | Requirement to perform save/restore configuration on an individual SM basis, rather than restoring configuration of the entire shelf in the event of database corruption of a single SM. |
CSCdm79604 | CBR connection from cesm-8t1 in slot 30 to ausm-8t1 in slot 19 is first established .Only 21 time-slots on each T1 lines of CESM are utilised for the cbr connections.Then all the 8 lines on AUSM are linked to srm which in turn has a metallic loopback. A brief hit on the srm lines is caused by a pulling out the active card and the secondary core-cards takeover but from then on there is continous LOP for CESM-AUSM cbr connections as noticed in the cerjac and also the ausm-line 1 remains in RcvLOF alarm state. |
CSCdm81358 | The alarm propagation from Port to Connection manager has been delayed for 1.5 seconds, and in turn it has reduced the channel alarm period at the other end. |

CSCdp23375 | When doing resync from CWM station, the resync becomes partial because config upload fails for slot 12 (VHS-2T3 card). |
CSCdp23536 | Scenario: After switchover, some connections got deleted. Symptom: These connections' data structure have linkage problem. The linkage between the lcn block and endpoint block are not linked properly. The traffice may not go through. Work around: These data structure must be manually removed to delete all the connections. "resetsys" might be necessary afterward. The sequence of the manual removal can not be predetermined. It depends on each individual problem. This steps are done via shellconn. Once the deletion is sucessful, the connections can be readded. |
CSCdp28768 | Unable to add cesm-pxm-uni connections on some ports between cesm-8t1 in slot2 and pxm -port 4 . cesm-8t1 in slot 2 had 1:n redundancy with redundant card being in slot11 .The secondary card in slot11 was active . While connections went through for some ports for some other ports ex: port2 in cesm it gives error message failed to update disk and with debug option turned on one sees the message no more lcn's available. The cesm-card initially had 4 -pxm-uni connections to pxm in slot-4/on line4 which in turn had a metallic loopback and the other 4 ports on cesm were connected to ausm-ima ports.All the connections in cesm were deleted and pxm-uni connections were re-added which give error in addition of uni connections on some ports. |
CSCdp29829 | Vhs in slot-17 & slot-27 were configured for Hot-Standby redundancy. Vhs in slot-17 initially had a different slot-specific -fw with different Mib-version & VHS in slot27 had generic VHS firmware dated 10.0.06_29Oct99_2. Card-17 was active & card-27 CT3 card was standby but not Hotstandby due to Mib-version discrepency. At this step removed slot-specific vhs-firmware and reset card -17 . which made VHS in slot-17 to come up in Hot-stanby (took one more reset to come back in Hot-Standby ) and Card 27 was active. At this step a VHS switchover was initiated which sent the Card-17 to Mismatch and Card-27 came -back active.There was also a feature set discrepency observed. |

CSCdp41980 | Symptom : There is 1-N redundancy between ausm-8t1 in slot 5,6, & 13 with the ausm in slot5 & slot6 being the primary cards and slot-13 being the secondary card. when the cards in slot 5 & 13 are inserted and if 13 becomes the active card then ,there is continuous cell-loss on the feeder connections associated with slot-6 .The ausm-8t1 in slot-6 comes up in standby state and cc to logical active <slot-6> fails. Workaround : Do not try to make the secondary card to become active first. |
CSCdp42721 | AUSM shelves generating excessive 50131s |
CSCdp44521 | cnfapsln causes system to reboot and lockup |
CSCdp46093 | Ausm-8T1 in slot 18 went into failed state . Earlier there was one vhs-swithchover between slot 19 & slot 30 and after the vhs in slot-19 was active and vhs in slot-30 was in hot-standby a pxm-switchover was initiated. There were a lot of SCM-sequence mismatches observed in the log as well as in the SCM-Card show command output . SRM in slots 15,31 & 32 were having a lot of Invalid GLCn counts & unknown SCM-Type counts. ausm in slot-18 had cbr connections to cesm in slot-2 and the ausm was linked to srm. |
CSCdp46161 | Symptom: Ssome of the end-to-end OAM loopback cells sent by CPE were blocked by AUSM-8P. Further Problem Description: OAM loopback cells have a field called Correlation Tag(4 octets) that is used to correlate the transmitted and received loopback cells. 16th bit of this field is used to identify StrataCom RTD cells (stratacom proprietary). RTD cells are not expected from Port side, but the firmware used to check for RTD cells from Port side. Every 16th bit set loopback cell was identified as an RTD cell and hence blocked. |

CSCdp51642 | None of the ima commands work on AUSM card on POPEYE shelf under shellConn. So on serial port also it will not work. So none of the scripts can be executed. This is a ULIB Problem. Please refer to CSCdm54403 and CSCdm50366. These are the bugs logged on AXIS for similar problem. It has been fixed in uicnf.c. Similar fix has to be ported (if applicable) to POPEYE. This would impact all service modules and has to be done carefully. Currently, none of the IMA commands with string arguments would work in shellConn/serial Port. |
CSCdp52062 | A resetsys was done on the ipfrnj40 node. after resetsys all pvc on RPM slot 10 did not come back. on PXM all the chans were still there and in alarm state.

CSCdm17963 | Description The number of messages that the card can process is only 50. When there are 50 messages to log and if there is a task failure, it could cause a card reset. Symptoms 1. Watchdog timeout reset 2. Power reset If identify is caused by this bug, look at the log just before the card reset if there are many logs from the card that got reset, then it is mostly likely because of the log message queue becoming full. Workaround There are no workarounds for this problem. |
CSCdm33570 | The FRSM-2CT3 does not pause its dsptotals display prior to the Port Channel Table. This was specifically altered on the FRSM-8T1 to prevent the data scrolling off the screen. |
CSCdm33677 | Symptom: Unable to add ABR1 connection from PXMUNI to PXMUNI (3-segment) whenever the fdrtrunk has some of its bandwidth used-up due to other connections. Scenario: Using SV+ to add ABR1 connection. The SCR field is default to the maximum port bandwidth and not editable (greyout). If there is at least one other connection already added, the available bandwidth will be less than that of the port speed. The new connection addition will fail. Work Around: Use CLI to add connection (addcon) then modify the SCR to the desired value (within what is available) via cnfupcabr (another CLI command). |

CSCdm60448 | Sympton: x-bit setting after detecting line failure is not compliant with Bell core standards, i.e. one seccond. Condition: line failure (either LOS or LOF) Workaround: Currently there is no work-around to this problem. |
CSCdm60455 | Symptom: Unable to modify SRM line alarm configuration parameters Workaround: No workaround. |
CSCdm61185 | Synposis: One user changing directory causes all other users on that shelf to be in that new directory. Description: When one user changes his/her directory (from CLI), it causes all other users to be in the new directory. MGXSM 8850 CLI "cd" command is based on underlying vxWorks "cd" command. Unless the code for underlying "cd" command is changed (by WindRiver), the functionality of "cd" command on MGXSM-8850 cannot be altered. Workaround: None. |
CSCdm73863 | Customer would like the command line enhanced to force the IMA group into startup. |
CSCdm73868 | There are certain IMA only related failures that need to be mentioned when an IMA link fails and a 50251 trap is generated. For example, if differential delay is the cause of the link removal, it must be mentioned as the cause. There is currently no mechanism in axis that mentions this. There also needs to be a log message written to the axis log with the same reason code info. I envision a varbind called axisImaLinkFailureReason. It should include all applicable link failure reasons (e.g. diff delay exceeded, Phys Layer Problem, NE blocked, FE blocked...etc). |
CSCdm73870 | When the wrong M value is used between AUSM and Kentrox, AUSM responds by generating an IMA port failure trap 50250. The trap has a field called axisImaGroupFailureStatus. One of the options for this is "Invalid M value Far End". When I simulate this condition, however, the 50250 trap populates this field with (8) "Insufficient Links NE." |
CSCdm73874 | When a T1 line is restored on an AUSM card, we get a trap 50100. The definition of this trap in the mib implies that it is obsolete in AXIS4 and that it is part of the bnm card....not the AUSM card. The firmware has to match the mib or the mib definition has to change to match the firmware. |
CSCdm73876 | When removing a T1 from the far-end (i.e. CPE), a trap is generated labelled 50901 - bnmLineAlarm. This is inconsistent with the MIB definition. This trap should NOT be generated, for 2 reasons. One it is in the bnm category (and this is an AUSM card) and two it was supposedly obsoleted from AXIS4. Either that or the mib definition must be changed. |
CSCdm83469 | T1 lines on an enabled T3 line on the FRSM-2CT3 card show up as disabled. |
CSCdp07803 | inbert not properly indicated when BERT test running on the port of a CESM-8T1. |
CSCdp07834 | Description The number of messages that the card can process is only 50. When there are 50 messages to log and if there is a task failure, it could cause a card reset. Symptoms 1. Watchdog timeout reset 2. Power reset If identify is caused by this bug, look at the log just before the card reset, and if there are many logs from the card that got reset, then it is probably because of the log message queue becoming full.

CSCdp27035 | When a slave connection is added in AUSM-8 without specifying the mastership flag as 2 (1- master, 2 - slave), and without specifying the remote connection ID, the connection addition goes through (taking the connection as Slave by default). At the same time, if the mastership flag is specified as 2 without specifying the remote connection ID, the connection addition fails and returns an error "Destination Unknown". The connection addition should go through in this case too w/o having to specify the remote connection ID as this is a slave connection. |

CSCdp42644 | Currently the slave end of an established connection can be deleted and re-added back without deleting the master end. This created two problems: 1. if the slave end is on a SM, then the CBC's RAM will not be reprogrammed correctly and as a result, traffic won't pass after slave re-add. 2. If the slave end is on PXM UNI, the RCMP will not be properly reprogrammed after the slave re-add. |
CSCdp43711 | Problem : When adding a DAX connection between AUSM and PXM, the connection goes into alarm, although there are no line or port alarms. Symptoms : This problem has been observed when the AUSM end of the connection is added as a slave first, followed by adding the BBchan end on the PXM as master. We tried to duplicate this problem in the lab with 1.1.20 and made the following observations. 1. This problem occured with AUSM ,but not with CESM or FRSM-VHS 2. This problem only happened when the AUSM end was added as slave first. Workaround : 1. Add the PXM UNI end of the connection first, as master, followed by the AUSM end as slave. 2. Add the PXM UNI end of the connection first, as slave, followed by the AUSM end as master. |

CSCdp48649 | Symptom: Not able to add ABR1 connection from PXMUNI to PXMUNI (3-segment) whenever the fdrtrunk has some of its bandwidth used-up due to other conns. Scenario: Using SV+ to add ABR1 connection. The SCR field is default to the maximum port bandwidth and not editable (greyout). If there is atleast one other connection already added, the available bandwidth will be less than that of the port speed. The new connection addition will fail. Work Around: Use CLI to add connection (addcon) then modify the SCR to the desired value (within what is available) via cnfupcabr (another CLI command). |
CSCdp48888 | Hot removal of the MGX-FAN assembly may cause fan monitoring circuitry components on the PXM1 to fail.

CSCdp62482 | SM downloads fail intermittently. |
CSCdp66005 | Symptoms: PXM UNI connections added on a port which is in alarm remain in alarm even after the port alarm is cleared. Conditions: This problem is reproducible. If connections already existing on a clear port are put in alarm by causing a port alarm, the alarms get cleared on clearing the port alarm. Only connections added on a port in alarm remain in alarm state even after clearing the port alarm. This problem was first seen in image 1.1.21Lc. Workaround: Before adding UNI connections originating from any SM, make sure that the ports at the two endpoints are clear of any alarms. Alarms on a connection can also be cleared by doing an SM reset. |

CSCdp04883 | The extended ping command through a "cc" channel is not recommended for use as a "traffic generator." This command oveloads the IPC channel with "!" to be printed out through the PXM. The IPC channel bandwidth is limited and without any means of traffic classification. Hence, if the channel is fully loaded it is expected that the other cc sessions will fall back to the PXM. From 1.1.21, there will also be an indication when this happens. This command can be used through the console port. |
CSCdp52180 | During FTP testing, with PVCs going from an AXIS endpoint to an MGX endpoint, the customer was observing the daily measurement, and found that the MGX is taking much longer to recover from an SRM failure. On an SRM switchover, hot standby needs to be implemented on SRM. The total switchover time in the current setup is greater than 2.5 seconds, which causes the T1 lines of the service module to go into alarm, and then the recovery time is also added. Hence the traffic loss. Workaround: If we increase the line integration time on T1 lines on the service module to 5 seconds from a default time of 2.5 seconds, lines don't go into alarm. |
CSCdp65557 | Symptom: When you perform a softswitch from Primary AUSM to Secondary AUSM in non-bulk mode, if the system is very busy, the remote equipment may notice LOF or LOS. It is intermittent. Workaround: None. |
CSCdp65019 | Symptom: If you 'cc' to new active card after 'softswitch' for AUSM-8T1/E1 cards in 1:N redundancy, you may observe some delay or telnet session may fall back. Workaround: Wait a minute and execute 'cc' again. |
CSCdp54765 | Symptom: Unable to add port on an existing FRSM. Conditions: ASC and FRSM running 4.0.17 and 4.0.19 respectively. Workaround: Reset FRSM card in slot that experienced the problem. |
CSCdm29969 | Symptom: Some of the lines are going into alarm condition during the graceful upgradation of FRSM-8P card. Conditions: This problem is happenning only when the VHS back cards are present on the shelf. Workaround: No workaround. |
CSCdp02900 | Symptom: Customer indicates that DSPCHANS shows non-existing PVC's. Work Around: None. |
CSCdp54781 | Symptom: Loss of traffic for UBR connections on the AUSM card even when UPC is disabled. Conditions: For UBR connections on the AUSM card when UPC is disabled but CLP tagging option is enabled, cells are discarded (cells that are already tagged CLP1). Work Around: Disabling the CLP tagging option at this point causes data to start flowing. |
CSCdp51646 | Symptom: Active line physically connected to deleted line is out of alarm. Conditions: On an AUSM shelf, conect line 1 to line 8. Then addln 1 and addln 8, and delln 8. Then reset the card. When the card becomes active, line 1 is out of alarm. Line 1 goes to alarm when the cable to line 8 is removed and recovers upon re-attaching. Work Around: None. |
CSCdp47079 | Symptom: Policing, by default is turned off on certain PXM connections (VBR and ABR). Conditions: There is no specific environment that creates this problem. The problem was observed in the 1.1.20 release. VBR-rt conns. couldnt be added in this release. However, default policing on VBR-rt conns. was off in the 1.1.11Ja image. Workaround: The only solution as of now is to explicitly turn the policing on connections for which it is off by default. |
CSCdm83319 | Symptom: Command not available. Description: This is a CLI enhancement not a bug. Condition: Not applicable. Work around: Currently not available. |
CSCdk65545 | Symptom: Secondary card fails to cover primary in 1:N redundancy when using 8-port back-cards and the primary is physically removed from the chassis. Workaround: Issue a soft reset via the "resetcd" command to switch between primary and secondary service modules. |
CSCdp50541 | Symptom: This problem might result in occasional slips seen on cesm connections. Workaround: Reconfigure the clock on the PXM if the PXM has Inband clock. Internal clock configuration does not affect the cesm connections. |
CSCdm54916 | Conditions: This problem is intermittent.
Symptoms: cesm-t1 with uni connections start showing ais-oam cell incrementing. This can be seen using dspchancnt. However, no traffic loss has been observed because of these ais cell increment.
Work Around : There is currently no work around for this. |
CSCdp60418 | WorkAround: This needs further investigation and currently does not have any impact on the functionality. There is no known workaround for this. |
CSCdp63737 | WorkAround: This does not have any workaround. This needs further investigation and currently does not have any impact on the functionality. |
CSCdp41488 | WorkAround: This does not have any workaround. This needs further investigation and currently does not have any impact on the functionality. This is a negative test condition. |
CSCdm48519 | Symptom: 140 second data hit when a FRSM-2CT3 gets reset. Condition: When non redundant card having more number of channels is reset, it takes more than two minutes for traffic continuity to work. Workaround: There is no work around. |
CSCdm28951 | Symptom: PXM having wrong A-bit status. Conditions: Unknown. Workaround: None. |
CSCdm44173 | Symptom: Negative test failure. Changing the DC type results in connection being lost. Conditions: Changing the daughtercard type (e.g. oc3 to t3 or vice-versa) results in teh PXM connections to be lost. This is due to the restore failure on a different physical interface type. Once the type of the daughtercard is changed, the line driver will not add the line due to a different card type. However, the higher modules (PAR, VSI), etc. must have a mechanism in case of a restore failure and should not result in connection deletion. Workaround: None. |
CSCdm46394 | Symptom: SYSTEM ERROR 20208 occurred during SM images upgrading to 10.0.02_01June99_1. Condition: This is a one-time occurrance. The following is observed: ############################ ###### SYSTEM ERROR 20208 1 1179649 ############################ Description: The above error indicates that PAR is receiving bulk interface trap before the interfaces known to PAR, so PAR is logging the bad interface system error. This is a rare race condition. Subsequently when the individual port trap comes, the interface will be created in PAR properly. Workaround: None. This error is not causing any problem as the port state will be updated correctly subsequently by the individual port trap. |
CSCdp31887 | Symptom: Protection APS line, when active, does not go into Sig_fail state when threshold is reached, and goes into P_B state when working line is made to go into Signal_Degrade |
CSCdm79651 | Symptom: Losing telnet session Condition: When dspcons is execution and there are around 1000 connections and the PAGEMODE is "OFF" Workaround: Avoid turning off PAGEMODE |
CSCdp03133 | Symptom: ABCD bits are being corrupted through a CAS-to-CAS connection after the CESM has been reset. Workaround: Delete the MGX 8220 channels and re-add them. |

CSCdp20457 | Symptom: "xnmbrowser" when used to perform snmp sets, gets and walks accepts any string for the community name, as long as the lengths of the correct name and the supplied name are the same and the first characters of the two names match. As a result, any name that matches the above described pattern will be accepted by the browser. The problem has been fixed and the fix will reflect in Rel 1.1.22. |
CSCdp38636 | Symptom: dspcds shows both primary and secondary sms as active even though one of the cards failed. Condition: pulling the function module during switch over Workaround: User has to pull out the front-card and insert it back. Currently there is no work-around for this. |
CSCdp44377 | Symptom: Egress Service Engine (ESE) fails while it's sending 244 bytes LMI Full status message. Condition: Annex-A or Annex-D should be enabled on at least one port with 46 connections. WorkAround: User should disable LMI before adding 46th connection, add one more dummy connection to avoid 244 bytes packet and enabled LMI again. |
CSCdp41980 | Symptom : There is 1-N redundancy between ausm-8t1 in slot 5,6, & 13 with the ausm in slot5 & slot6 being the primary cards and slot-13 being the secondary card. when the cards in slot 5 & 13 are inserted and if 13 becomes the active card then ,there is continuous cell-loss on the feeder connections associated with slot-6 .The ausm-8t1 in slot-6 comes up in standby state and cc to logical active <slot-6> fails. Workaround : Do not try to make the secondary card to become active first. |
CSCdm05358 | Symptom: When modifying a particular protected memory address on CESM8p which causes CESM HW watchdog reset, PXM got reset or lost SAR functionality. Description: When this happens, CESM sent a huge amount of traffic onto the management connection which is supposed to be used for intercard communication activities such as polling. This traffic causes the SAR to spend all its resources on doing the cleaning/flushing in ISR (interrupt service). This address should never be modified using the shellConn 'modify' command. It was used unknowingly in debug/test process. Workaround: Don't try to modify this protected address in shellConn (m 0xb300060) (0xb300060 is ATMizer CPU address for SAR on CESM8P). As a general guideline, shellConn commands like 'modify memory' should not be used by the customer. |
CSCdm10722 | Symptom/Condition: The install, newrev and commit commands for service module upgrade (there is no concept of downgrade here, as there exits only one valid, service module image on the disk at a time), do not follow, the same state machine as PXM commands in the current release. Hence, it is mandatory, that for service modules, these commands are given in the documented order, which is: (1) install (2) newrev (3) commit WARNING: If these, commands are not given in the above specified order, we can be in a situation where we can have two different images running on the primary/secondary combination. However, on the disk, there is only one valid image for the service modules. Workaround: Assuming, that these commands were given out of order, and now we have two different images, running, on primary / secondary combination. f1 - Old image version f2 - Newly downloaded image (1) Reset the secondary card, so that it comes up, with f2. (2) Do a softswitch between the two cards, so that secondary takes over and becomes active. At the same time, primary is reset, and comes up with f2. (3) If you may, you can now, do a softswitch, to revert back to the original primary, to restore normal state. |
CSCdp17253 | This is related to an earlier bug CSCdm42508. Marketing requirement stated that the IMA feature should always be enabled on the card. And therefore any IMA operation on the card will go through irrespective of whether the IMA feature bit is ON or OFF. The change in CLI was left out in this earlier fix that was made in regards to this issue. Since the PXM reads the actual feature bits for dspsmcnf, and maybe since one of the cards had actually the IMA feature bit off, there was a mismatch between the PXM feature bits and those of the SMs (SM ignores the IMA feature bit). This caused the SMs to go into mismatch. A solution to avoid this problem is to make sure before switchover, that both the primary and secondary cards in the AUSM 1:N red group have the same "feature bits" enabled. i.e. If any of the feature bits is ON in either card, it should be ON on the other too. And even though the IMA feature bit is displayed ON, it will be safer to execute dspfeature 420 97/0 to turn the bit ON/OFF, so that the PXM sees a consistent view. This way, the cards won't go into mismatch state when they are swapped. |
CSCdp65370 | Symptom: When a T3 or E3 line indicates an alarm condition, the corresponding port state is not updated correctly. Port State is still displayed as active instead of "failed due to line". Conditions: This happens whenever the line is in LOS alarm. This does not affect normal ATM side traffic flow or the Egress TDM traffic. Workaround: None. |

CSCdk63920 | Symptom Adding connection on PXM interface with VPI value larger than 255 will be successful, but the data will not flow. Condition On PXM BBIF (broadband interface), HW supports VPI range of 0-4095. However, there is a FW restriction which limits the VPI range to 0-255. The result of this further limit that a feeder connection originated from a service module (SM) can have a VPI value no larger than 255 on the feeder trunk; and a connection between a SM and PXM UNI can have a VPI value on the PXM UNI interface of no more than 255. Example 1: SM - PXM feeder trunk - bpx - bpx - PXM feeder trunk - SM VPI value [0-255] [0-255] [0-255] [0-255] Example 2: SM --- PXM UNI VPI range [0-255] [0-255] For all other DAX conns this is not an issue, since SMs only support VPI up to 255. Workaround: Use VPI 0 - 255 when adding connections. |

CSCdm14439 | Symptom: Cannot stop an UPLOAD data capture session once it begins. |
CSCdm21316 | Symptom: Can not do clrsmcnf for a VISM card |
CSCdm33635 | Conditions: During switchback, dspcds shows neither card as active. Symptoms: During switchback processing for a 1:1 redundant FRSM-2CT3, neither card is shown active; there is also no redundancy indication. Workaround: There is currently no work around for this. |
CSCdm33996 | Symptom: Error log shows an invalid SSI_MQID of 0xFFFFFFFF has been passed as an argument to SSI calls by the "tSmterd" task.
Conditions: This may occur if the user tries to "cc" to a standby PXM immediately after it becomes "standby".
Workaround: The "cc" session with the above error will fail. The user can try again in 30 seconds after the CPU is free from the busy-burst right after the board turns "standby". |
CSCdm35462 | Symptom: Unable to add SRM lines from PXM in slot 8 Fix: The Line and alarm related commands are modified to allow Slots 8, 16 and 32 as valid arguments if PXM at slot 8 is active. The following commands are affected by this:
* addln * delln * cnfln * dspln * dsplns * addlnloop * dellnloop * cnfsrmclksrc * dspsrmclksrc * dspalm * dspalms * dspalmcnt * clralmcnt * clralm * dspalmcnf |
CSCdm38278 | Symptom: CiscoView enables SRM line automatically if other parameters are altered. Conditions: Do a Line....config on any T3 line on an active SRM card. Verify if the line is disabled Try altering any of the parameters in the "Physical Line Config(dsx3)" menu. For example, change the line loopback from dsx3NoLoop to dsx3remotelineloop. The "Line Enable" parameter also automatically gets toggled and the line gets enabled. |
CSCdm40113 | Symptom: It takes over 20 minutes for the FRSM-2CT3 cards to go active after a clrallcnf command has been issued. Conditions: Occurs when there are several FRSM-2CT3s in the shelf along with other service modules. Workaround: None. Wait for cards to go active. Further Problem Description: Creation of default service module config takes a long time and is processed one service module at a time. Subsequently, all the other SM wait to go active until the default config upload for all the service modules are done. |

CSCdm80527 | Symptom: Cannot set dsx3PlcpPayloadScramble from SNMP. |
CSCdm80773 | Symptom: clralm/clralms command does not provide help syntax |
CSCdm81358 | Symptom: Softswitch on AUSM causes remote end to go in and out of alarm. Condition When a softswitch is done, the DS1 lines are through the distribution bus (SRM) and the SRM now has to send the data to a different card (Redundant card), this causes a glitch (errors) in the DS1 lines. The AIM Group goes into failed state because of these errors. When the AIM Group goes into failed state the channels go into alarm and so the remote end of the channel also goes into alarm. When the AIM Group recovers, the channels come out of alarm. Workaround: Do not report the port alarm immediately to the connection manager. Integrate the port alarm for 't' seconds. If the alarm persists even after time 't', inform connection manager. Else, connection manager need not know about alarm at all. The main disadvantage of connections going into alarm at all. The main disadvantage of connections going into alarm, is that recovery time is in seconds. So delay in data transfer is going to be more. This is avoided by masking the port alarm to connection manager. |
CSCdm81375 | Symptom: Phantom channels on cards that don't have lines or ports enabled |
CSCdm84845, CSCdm84850 | Symptom: Card Information field (Card Reset Reason) is not consistent with the CLI. |

CSCdm88721 | Symptom: In a shelf with core card redundancy, both PXMs got reset while executing switchcc. |
CSCdm90248 | Symptom: All the channels do not come out of alarm after a hot standby switchback Description: The active card and the standby card can have different configurations if the line is in clear state, because no line clear trap would be sent after the active trap. Resolution: The system now clears the port state after receiving functionModuleActive trap. |
CSCdm90295 | Symptom: Remote loops put up are not displayed by dspln command |
CSCdm91925 | Symptom: Some commands execute after entering only one letter. Description: The 3 commands actually correspond to: f = format s = saveallcnf b = bootChange The first one "f" is the most harmful. this could format the PXM hard-disk. The next two are not harmful though. It appears that these three commands appear first among all the commands that begin with these letters. This is also found to be true on the Popeye shelf. This is not found with all letters. The CLI Command Parser searches for the closest match if it cannot find the exact match.Sometimes there is only one command beginning with certain characters;like there is only one command beginning with "f" i.e. formatdisk.Hence that command is executed when only one alphabet is typed.In this case to let the user know what command is executed,the executed command name is displayed. |
CSCdm92288 | Symptom: On removal of the active back-card, redundancy switchover fails in hot-stdby Condition: Resetting the standby card while it is being configured to be a hot standby. In this case, Primary (17) is active and Secondary(19) is in HotStandby. The backcard of 17 was removed and NOT reinserted. This causes switchover to 19, which becomes active. The PXM now tries to make 17 to be a Hot Standby and to do so downloads the PRI file to 17. While the PRI download is in progress, the backcard of 17 is reinserted, causing 17 to reset and the PRI download to fail. WorkAround: Remember that both inserting and removal of backcards cause VHS cards to reset. Allow standby cards to become hotstandby by waiting for a few minutes before resetting them. You can find out if the card is in hot standby by executing the "dsphotstandby" command on the PXM. |
CSCdm92305 | Symptom: dspcds, dspred & dsphotstandby commands display inconsistent card states |
CSCdm93789 | Symptom: Memory leak causes SM to mismatch after running resetcd. |

CSCdp02813 | Symptom: FRSM-VHS - tstcon/tstdelay to UXM UNI port cons fail nearly every time |
CSCdp04258 | Symptom: PXM drops incremental updates while SM goes to HotStandby |
CSCdp04475 | Symptom: Rounding off errors occur when CWM and the CLI are used together to configure a ForeSight connection. Conditions: Refer to Eng-Note for the details. Workaround: Since the CLI takes any value greater than the CIR converted to CPS (with rounding off errors. e.g 1333cps for a 512k connection), to avoid the problem user should do the rounding off manually and give it in the CLI. |
CSCdp05115 | Symptom: Cell-loss on CESM-feeder connections after new-rev command execution |
CSCdp07010, CSCdm57910 | Symptom: Could not configure i/f as trunk initially until background check failed |
CSCdp08034 | Symptom: Timezone gets reset back to GMT after PXM FW upgrade. |
CSCdp08186 | Symptom: Workaround: dbmClrAllCnf <ctrl> <x> (to reset the card) The system will come up with empty database, except nodename and ip address. The configuration has to be added. Since the saved configuration has the corrupted contents from the hard disk, performing "restoreallcnf -f filename.zip" will encounter this exception again during the channel mib parsing. This result in reset loop. |
CSCdp11717 | Symptom: Security risk with hard coded community strings for SNMP access Workaround: There is currently no work around for this. |

CSCdp16649 | Symptom: System reset caused during upgrade to 1.1.11Jd Conditions: Upgrade was being performed from 1.1.11Ja to 1.1.11Jd.
The install 1.1.11Jd command was executed on slot 8; slot 7 came up in hold state The newrev 1.1.11Jd command was executed on slot 8, at which point the shelf reset. After the reset, Slot 7 (1.1.11Jd) came up active, slot 8 was in hold (1.1.11Ja). When the dsplog command was executed, it could not read the last file. This file was manually transferred over, its contents are as follows: dsplog ^M10/08/1999-12:02:19 08 tTnCmdTsk01INST-7-COMMAND1 install 1.1.11jD ^M10/08/1999-12:02:25 08 tTnCmdTsk01INST-7-COMMAND1 install 1.1.11Jd ^M10/08/1999-12:02:27 07 tPMM PMM-7-RST_REQ Reset request: , 1 ^ Workaround: There is currently no work around for this. |
CSCdp17156 | Symptom: Removal of active PXM backcard, caused APS switch as expected, but clocking reverted to internal oscillator Conditions: XM=1.1.11Jd System is configured for APS. Primary clock source is set to derive from uplink trunk. When the line module backcard was removed from the active PXM, APS switch took place to the protection line as expected. However the clock source (as viewed from dspcurclk) reverted to the internal oscillator, instead of continuing to derive from the protection line. It stayed on the internal oscillator until the backcard was re-installed on the active PXM - the aps line continued to stay on protection because aps was configured as non-revertive. Workaround: Do not remove back card. |

CSCdp29275 | Symptom: System error msgs 21205, 21202, 20617 & 20420 Condition: The delay is due to the creation time of the FRSM-VHS database on the disk. This delay is only introduced the first time the card is inserted or after clrallcnf. Workaround: Wait for card to go active. The Hot Standby Feature has been introduced for VHS to mitigate this problem. With a hot standby the switchover happens in less than one second. |
CSCdp29597 | Symptom: Software Exception:Vector 2 EPC:0x8003580c ADR:0x0e1d2ea0 |
CSCdp29775 | Symptom: Several FRSM-8T1 &VHS Service Modules were in failed/stdby after upgrade and resetsys Condition: The upgrade procedure went through fine but after executing the resetsys command the FRSM-8T1 & VHS service modules which had redundancy came up in failed state. Workaround: None. |
CSCdp35045 | Symptom: All the connections declared failed after switchcc Condition: After switchcc, channels are in alarm. PAR declares "local interface failure" for all connections even though some cards still have data continuity. From PXM the connections indicate "failed". |
CSCdp41514 | Symptom: Some conns goes to FAILED (with error Local I/F failure) even though I/F is UP Workaround: When the connection state is seen to be incorrect immediately after provisioning as described in this bug report (e.g. FAILED when it should have been OK), following is a workaround to rectify the status: Delete Master End and Slave End Provision Slave End and Master End Check that connection Status is OK (assuming there are no other genuine reasons for the connection status to be failed - like interface failure, alarm due to AIS). |

CSCdk72991 | Symptom: FRSM-VHS takes several minutes to go active when inserted the first time or after clrallcnf. Condition: The delay is due to the creation time of the FRSM-VHS database on the disk. This delay is only introduced the first time the card is inserted or after clrallcnf. Workaround: Wait for card to go active. The Hot Standby Feature has been introduced for VHS to mitigate this problem. With a hot standby the switchover happens in less than one second. |

CSCdp16642 | Symptom: dspln -ds3 command does not work for SRMs in 1.1.11Jd Conditions: When the PXM firmware is of a version later than 1.1.11Ja and the PXM back card is not a T3 back card. Workaround: Issue the command dsplns -ds3 <slotno> to get the required information. Further Problem Description: The problem occurs because of an invalid conditional checking during the display. |
CSCdm45533 | Symptom: Round trip delay test results do not change on changing CDVT for CE-CE connection Conditions: 1. While adding a connection, the aal1driver added the connection with default CDVT of 1000us. After adding the connection, the CDVT was configured. This effect of CDVT change was felt only after a channel failure 2. When modifying CDVT with cnfcon too, the same problem was found, because of the CBR traffic, the buffer size cannot be changed dynamically without dropping data, hence it was not possible to see the effect of change in CDVT immediately. Workaround: 1. The first problem can be overcome by using CWM or the xcnfchan command to add a connection with value of CDVT different from the default 2. For dynamic changes in round trip as a result of CDVT changes, a shellConn command is introduced to synchronize the SAR queues. This command would, however, cause a momentary traffic disruption for CDVT to take effect NODENAME.1.4.CESM.a > dspcons Line ConnId ChanNum Status CDVT MaxBufSize CLIP CBRservice ---- -------------------- ------- ------ ----- ---------- ------ ------------ 1 NODENAME.4.1.0 32 Mod 10000 5120 2500 unstructured 2 NODENAME.4.2.0 33 Mod 10000 5120 2500 unstructured ChanNumNextAvailable: 35 NODENAME.1.4.CESM.a > shellConn NODENAME.1.4.CESM.a > SyncChan 32 SyncChan 32 value = 0 = 0x0 The command reports an error if it is unsuccessful. It takes channel number (not connection number) as an argument and does range checking for valid channels. |
CSCdm54264 | Symptom: RPM DAX connection is not rejected when conflict |
CSCdm59885 | Symptom: Connections with mismatched endpoints should be rejected |
CSCdm61180 | Symptom: Able to change passwords without knowing password Synopsis: When a user wants to change the password, the CLI interface does not ask the user for the old password. Hence lack of security. Description: Irrespective of user GROUP ACCESS, he/she can change their password without knowing the old password. Workaround: This problem is fixed in release 1.1.12. Users belonging to SUPER USER GROUP are not prompted for the old password; while users belonging to other GROUPS are prompted for old password before they are allowed to change their current password. |
CSCdm45141 | Symptom: Switchcc displays ssiFrameXmt failed and VSI master: invalid sw clock info pg Condition: The ssiXmtFrame failure was caused by SCM transmitting on GLCN=0, which is reserved. This is due to scmSwitch including slot 31 and slot 32 which are not mapped in SCM master. switchcc on PXM displays the following message in the PXM log: 1. ssiFrameXmt failed, error status -1 - 31 dropped 2. Vsi master: invalid sw clock info pg ; 2, 3, -2104681808 - 1 dropped 05/27/1999-06:16:13 07 PAR:Vsi PAR-7-VSIM_DEBUG Vsi master: invalid sw clock info pg ; 2, 3, -2104681808 - 1 dropped 05/27/1999-06:16:10 07 PAR:Vsi PAR-7-VSIM_DEBUG Vsi master: invalid sw clock info pg ; 2, 3, -2104681808

CSCdm59422 | Symptom: PXM declares RPM as Failed when CPU reaches high utilization. Conditions: The RPM is a NPE-150 based router card capable to sustain traffic up-to 150,000pps. The RPM limits it to 62,000pps because of its single switch interface design. Under heavy load (data or controlled traffic) the CPU utilization increases which breaks the IPC communication channel between the PXM and RPM card, due to which PXM declares RPM as Failed. Under such condition the provisioning commands will time-out as the PXM assumes that the RPM card is not available, whereas the RPM will continue to pass traffic. WorkAround: It is recommended for OSPF configurations to limit the number of networks to 20 or less and the MPLS configuration to limit the interface to 100 or less. Doing so will guarantee a sustainable traffic with a low CPU utilization and hence the CPU will be able to service IPC channel traffic. |

CSCdm83655 | Symptom: Bit and Framing errors were detected using the on-board T1/E1 service module BERT feature, and also with an external BERT test when the T1s were distributed from an SRM connected to an M13. Further Problem Description: When the T1 framer is configured in line loopback, there is no dejittering involved in the path. This causes bit errors for traffic from distribution bus , which is more susceptible to noise. To eliminate these jitter induced errors, now the framer is configured for payload loopback in response to a loopup request. The jitter tolerance is improved with framer in payload loopback mode. |
CSCdm83787 | Symptom: runslftstno 5 gets Disk Data Corruption message (similar to bug CSCdm68952) |
CSCdm84900 | Symptom: After adding some connections, HS2 card goes into constant failed state Problem & Reason: When one of the feeder cable was bad and it was causing a lot of LCV's, HEC errors and also going on and off the MAJOR alarm state, some of the OAM cells from the far end connection were received as data and this triggered the card failing problem. Workaround: None if the bad cable cannot be replaced with a good one. |

CSCdp03564 | Symptom: Getting large amounts of aborted frames on FRSM-HS2 card |
CSCdp05125 | Symptom: Connections which terminate on FRSM-2CT3 ports which span multiple DS0s experience intermittant data problems. Counters and statistics on the FRSM and PXM do not indicate any problems. The CPE equipment will show FRAME abort conditions. Conditions: The condition will manifest itself after a number of low speed ports have been configured on the card. Data will run fine on the first few low speed ports configured, but after a point, the creation of one more low speed port will cause data on all ports to exhibit the problem symptoms. Workaround: No known workaround. Further Problem Description: The problem can be identified as follows -- Send data from the CPE (in this case a 3620 router). Notice that 3 of the 5 pings went through. We also see 2 abort frames (input errors on the interface). These directly correspond to the 2 missing icmp datagrams. |

CSCdp09346 | Symptom: CESM-8T1/E1 - New dsptotals command only shows max of 124 ports for both cards. |
CSCdm30544 | Symptom: The major card integrated alarm due to inconsistent databases on the PXM and the SM does not get cleared. Symptom : Under rare situations, a configuration change on an SM will fail to make the necessary changes on the PXM. The SM will try to back-off the changes and this might fail also. This failure to undo the changes will result in the inconsistent databases card integrated alarm (which can be seen using the "dspcd" command). Workaround : There is no workaround to prevent this alarm condition from happening. However it is extremely rare that it will occur. This alarm indication does not disappear at all. There is no CLI command to clear the alarm indication either. The only way to get rid of the alarm indication is to reset the card. |

One of the slots on the node had a CESM-8E1 card with some connections. The connections, ports and lines on the CESM were deleted and it was replaced with an AUSM-8T1 card.The AUSM card went to mismatch state. On trying to execute the clrsmcnf command the following error message was seen: flyers4.1.7.PXM.a > clrsmcnf 20, Do you want to proceed (Yes/No)? Yes Command Failed: Resources exist on card (CSCdm29289).
Happens on an MGX 8850 switch with two PXMs (Core Redundancy). If the Active PXM while synchronizing the databases to Standby, resets, then the Standby PXM goes to Fail State. The reset PXM comes up as Active and will show the other PXM slot as Empty (CSCdm30193)
ShelfIntegrated alarm becoming Major or Minor either after switchcc or resetsys. (CSCdm33756)
One connection, CESM-PXM UNI ended up deleted in CESM, but SPM still has some incomplete data structure. Since there is only one connection per port for the CESM, and the connection is in such state that can not be removed or re-added, the port and its bandwidth become unusable (CSCdm33289)
Configuring the DS3 framing format on an FRSM-2CT3 to M13 does not permit the card to operate correctly with other devices using that framing format. (CSCdm35575
When modifying a particular protected memory address on CESM8p which causes CESM HW watchdog reset, PXM got reset or lost SAR functionality. (CSCdm15367)
Adding or modifying a connection to an RPM fails if the RPM enable password differs from the password that Conn MGR has cached. Example: A connection to an RPM is configured, then the enable password is changed on the RPM -- any subsequent connection adds or changes fail because of a bad enable password. (CSCdm34114)
When modifying the bandwidth allocation (usually from a smaller percentage to a much bigger one) of a port with "cnfport" command, it is not always possible to create more connections under that port. (CSCdm32894)
The standby PXM console is not enabled for use. Downlevel PXM board (CSCdm34030)

While using a script to do stress switchcc test, there is a one time occurrence where it was found that the original active card did not come back as standby, but went to fail state. (CSCdm35298)
The problem is related to the PVC's traffic parameters. We are still investigating what the PCR, average, and burst values should be set to for VBR connection. This values are related to nature of the traffic which is sent to the RPM. (CSCdm35352)

Restoreallcnf does not restore the saved config. Occurs when restoring a configuration taken from another physical shelf. The card the restoreallcnf was done on will not become active but the other card will which contains the previous configuration. (CSCdm37114)
AUSM Connection addition fails for VP connection from CWM. (CSCdm36674)
At low frequencies, the jitter characteristics does not fully comply with the standards. (CSCdm38833)
Stand-alone Statistics collection does not work if the PXM is in slot 8 (CSCdm20017).
There is no need to issue the syncdisk and shutdisk commands before removing the PXMs. The system quiesces the disk by detecting the removal of the PXM board and flushes the write buffers to the disk and puts the PXM in sleep mode. This disables any further hard disk access since it locks the acctuator. When the card is reinserted the PXM automatically comes out of sleep mode.
In Release 1.0.00 Configuration Save and Restore works only for the same firmware image even if there are no database changes from one version to the other version. In Release 1.1.00 Configuration Save and Restore can be done on different firmware images if the firmware images have compatible databases.
VPI range was limited to 0 to 255 on PXM UNI and NNI on the feeder ports in Release 1.0.00. There is no VPI range limit in Release 1.1.00. (CSCdk63920)

Note 1.1.22 platform image is co-required with the special120-5.XT image. |
Existing customers should use the upgrade procedure on page 85 to upgrade from 1.1.12/1.1.21/1.1.22. tp 1.1.23 For new customers the image will be pre-installed as 1.1.23 and they need to use the PXM installation procedure to upgrade to future maintenance releases.
No graceful downgrade is supported from 1.1.23 or any higher version to any down level version of software below 1.1.22 because of MIB changes. This also implies that if you have to abort after newrev command (and the commit command), you have to do an ungraceful downgrade.
Below is the procedure for ungraceful downgrade:
abort
reload old firmware code (boot code can stay at 1.1.22)
restoreallcnf
Step 2 If they don't have a saved configuration then do:
abort
reload the old code
goto shellConn
setPXMPrimary on both boards
issue clrallcnf on the active
Saveallcnf
Step 2 Download the 1.1.23 PXM runtime image to the PXM.
tftp <node_name or IP address> bin put 1.1.23.fw POPEYE@PXM.FW quit
Step 3 Download the ComMat.dat file to the C:/fw directory of the Active PXM. Use the tftp put command:
tftp <node_name or IP address>
bin
put ComMat.dat
quit
Step 4 On the PXM type the following when the transfer is done:
copy ComMat.dat /FW/ComMat.dat
Step 5 Execute the install 1.1.23 command.
Step 6 Answer Yes to the question the install command will ask.
This section applies to upgrades from 1.1.10 to 1.1.11 or 1.1.12 or 1.1.21 or 1.1.22.
![]() |
Caution Do not remove old firmware until the upgrade is done. |
During graceful upgrade procedure, if after the newrev command, the non-active card enters the "MISMATCH" state, do the normal commit command. You will get a warning message:
other card not found,
do you still want to complete the commit operation
Answer yes and then reset the non-active card.
If you get the MISMATCH during the upgrade process, after you finish, you will also get the MISMATCH. To correct the mismatch, you must check your backcards, they must be identical.

Note First you must ensure that the shelf IP address and the PXM IP address are set. The PXM must have its own unique IP address and there must be a another unique IP address for the shelf. |
To set the PXM address, use the bootChange command:
node-prompt> bootChange
'.' = clear field; '-' = go to previous field; ^D = quit
boot device : lnPci
processor number : 0
host name :
file name :
inet on ethernet (e) : 172.29.37.220:ffff00
inet on backplane (b):
host inet (h) :
gateway inet (g) : 172.29.37.1
user (u) :
ftp password (pw) (blank = use rsh):
flags (f) : 0x0
target name (tn) :
startup script (s) :
other (o) :
Set the "inet on ethernet (e) :" field with the first part of the entry (before the :) as the IP address, and the second part as the subnet mask.
Set the "gateway inet (g) :" with the gateway address.
This must be done on both PXMs. This can also be done in backup boot from the VxWorks prompt "->".
To set the shelf IP address:
node-prompt> cnfifip 26 shelf.ip.address subnet.mask broadcast.address
The second argument is the shelf IP address.
The third argument is the subnet mask.
The fourth argument is the broadcast address.
saveallcnf
Step 2 Get the filename by listing the CNF directory:
node-prompt> ll "C:/CNF"
size date time name

In the file system :
total space : 819200 K bytes
free space : 787787 K bytes
Step 3 On the workstation, upload the saved configuration to the workstation:
unix-prompt> tftp shelf.ip.address
tftp> bin
tftp> get CNF/NODENAME_0409990528.zip
Received 45433 bytes in 0.4 seconds
Step 4 Verify that one PXM is Active and the other Standby.
Step 5 On the workstation, download the PXM FW:
unix-prompt> tftp pxm.ip.address
tftp> bin
tftp> put pxm_1.1.23.fw POPEYE@PXM.FW
Sent 1982672 bytes in 18.3 seconds
Make sure that the transfer is successful, by looking at the message displayed on the PXM console after the transfer:
Program length = 1982672
Calculated checksum = 0xd9779bc6 stored checksum = 0xd9779bc6
Fw checksum passed
Step 6 Download the ComMat.dat file to the C:/fw directory of the Active PXM. Use the tftp put command:
tftp <node_name or IP address>
bin
cd fw
put ComMat.dat
copy ComMat.dat to FW directory on the PXM.
quit
Step 7 After the transfer is done, type the following on the PXM:
copy ComMat.dat /FW/ComMat.date
Ensure that the ComMat.dat is copied to both PXMs.
Step 8 On the Active PXM, do "install 1.1.23".
The Standby card will reset at this point, and go to hold state.
Step 9 After the Standby card is reset and successfully enters the hold state, on the Active PXM, do "newrev 1.1.23".
The Active card will be reset and go to hold state.
After the newrev the firmware should now show the new revision on dspcd.
Step 10 After the Active PXM is reset and successfully enters the hold state, on the new Active PXM, do "commit 1.1.23".
unix-prompt> tftp shelf.ip.address
tftp> bin
tftp> put pxm_bkup_1.1.22fw POPEYE@PXM.BT
Sent 642232 bytes in 6.3 seconds
The byte count above is just an example. It will be different for different images. Make sure that the boot is successfully downloaded. You should see a message like the following on the console:
Program length = 642230
Calculated checksum = 0x2a5a41f2 stored checksum = 0x2a5a41f2
Fw checksum passed
Step 2 Issue install bt "revision".
tftp <node_name or IP address> bin put <backup boot> POPEYE@SM_1_<slot#>.BOOT quit tftp <node_name or IP address> put <FW file> POPEYE@SM_1_0.FW quit
You cannot do two puts in the same tftp session.
Step 2 Install bt SM slot version.
Step 3 Answer Yes to the question the install command will ask.

Caution Service Module downgrade from 1.1.23 to any downlevel version is not supported. |
If you are moving service modules from an existing MGX 8220 platform to the MGX 8850, the MGX 8220 service modules (AX-FRSM-8T1/E1, and AX-CESM-8T1/E1) need to have the boot flash upgraded to MGX 8220 Release 5.0.00 common boot code (1.0.01 version) before they can be plugged in the MGX 8850 chassis. All MGX-8220 service module versions that use Release 4.0.xx of boot code and earlier are not supported in the MGX 8850.
SPARE DEPOT - Customers receiving a replacement service module via the TAC (through the RMA process) will have the common boot code image that works for MGX 8220 Release 4.x, 5,x and MGX 8850 installed on legacy service modules. (Spare service modules received directly from manufacturing through the normal ordering process will have the correct boot code image already loaded.)
If loading of the correct common boot code image is required then it will have to be performed on an MGX 8220 chassis, and cannot be performed on an MGX 8850 chassis. Please refer to the procedure below, which is also outlined in the Cisco MGX 8850 Installation and Configuration Guide on the documentation CD.
Use ftp to port the Axis 5 common boot image for the service module to a workstation
Plug in the card into the MGX 8220 shelf
Download the proper MGX 8220 shelf Release 5.0 boot image using the following commands from the workstation:
tftp <ip address of the MGX 8220 shelf > bin put <boot filename> AXIS_SM_1_<slot#>.BOOT
Now you must insure that tftp downloaded the appropriate boot code by verifying the flash checksums.
Login to the shelf.
cc <slot #>' chkflash'
Verify that the two checksums are the same.
If NOT, repeat the process until they are the same. If they are the same, then you can safely remove the card. At this point the service module can be used in the MGX 8850 shelf.
The following steps need to be followed for service module upgrade. Service module firmware images cannot be downloaded as specific versions in MGX 8850 Release 1.1.22 because only one image can be present on the disk at one instance. Hence the user cannot revert back during the installation process.

Repeat for each service module type and for each slot independent firmware.
For a slot-specific image (in this example the service module is tied to slot 1),
tftp <ip address of the MGX 8850 shelf > bin put frsm_<version>.fw POPEYE@SM_1_1.fw
for a slot-dependent image,
![]() |
Note If the checksums are not the same when you remove the service module then the service module will not boot when it is plugged in and the service module will have to be RMA'ed. |
Step 2 For non-graceful upgrades, just reset the card and the service module will come up with the new image.
Step 3 For graceful upgrades, a secondary card should be backing up the service module that needs to be upgraded. Configure the redundancy and issue the command:
install sm <slot> <version>
where <slot> is the service module that is being upgraded
and <version> is the service module image on the disk.
![]() |
Note The concept of version is redundant here, since there is only one service module image on the disk. However we do check that the version given by the user matches the image on the disk to make it consistent with PXM upgrade/downgrade. |
newrev sm <slot> <version>
where <slot> is the service module that is being upgraded
and <version> is the service module image on the disk.
commit sm <slot> <version>
where <slot> is the service module that is being upgraded
and <version> is the service module image on the disk.

Note There is no abort command for service module upgrade. |
The following is the list of known anomalies in the MGX 8850, Release 1.1.22 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
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
| Inserting standby PXMcan cause the telnet to be lost on the active PXM Workaround: 1) On active card issue bootchange command and change the Ethernet IP address to something different than the one displayed by dspifip for the ethernet interface. This can be any spare IP address on that network. 2) Insert new standby card and wait for it to become standby. 3) On active card change bootchange IP address back to original IP address of shelf.If this process is not followed than the newly inserted standby card could end up bringing up the ethernet interface with the same IP address as the active and broadcast its mac address so that all ethernet connectivity is lost on the active card. To correct this situation if it occurs, do the following: 1) Telnet and log into the console on the active card. 2) Reset the standby card by using resetcd or reinsert the card. 3) Go into shellConn 4) Enter arpEnetUpdate at shellconn prompt. Ethernet connectivity via telnet and tftp to the active card should be restored. |
CSCdr22375 | Symptom/Condition: ddred between SMs fails reporting a feature mismatch but dspsmcnf shows identical feature bitmaps for the 2 SMs. Happens only when a graceful PXM upgrade is done to 1.1.23, and no SM upgrade/reset is done after the PXM upgrade and an addred is attempted. The IMA feature has been made standard instead of optional in 1.1.23 PXM firmware. Hence a SM which booted while the PXM ran pre-1.1.23 firmware, will maintain its old feature bitmap. But a SM which booted while the PXM ran 1.1.23 firmware(or greater), will show a new feature bitmap. Addred will thus fail between two such SMs. Workaround: After the PXM upgrade, reset all the SMs for which addred needs to be done, and then do addred |
CSCdr22345 | Symptom/Condition: Voice call gets dropped, line alarm is seen on SM after a PXM switchover Happens only when the SRM has link to the SM, the secondary SM is Active and there is an SRM/PXM switchover.HotStandby SRM's link points to the Primary SM until the new SRM becomes Active Workaround: Switchback the SM so that the Primary SM is Active, before doing the PXM switchover |
CSCdr00016 | Symptom/Condition: This problem was encountered sometimes when deleting more than 500 connections using a single "delchans" command. Workaround: It is recommended not group such a large number of connections in each "delchans" command. Retricting to 50 or 100 connections per delchans would help workaround this problem. |
CSCdm92345
| Symptom/Condition: The VHS SM have either DAX or FEEDER connections on the logical port which is simulated with some kind of signalling. Now if simulate line in logical (diagnostic) loopback the CWM shows connections Failed but after deleting the diagnostic loopback from line connections do not come back in OK state eventhough traffic runs well through the connections. CLI shows the correct status of the connections but CWM does not show the correct status of the connections ones connections go to the Fail state. workaround: None. |
CSCdp53347 | Symptom/Condition If 2 different HS1 SM have too many master and slave connections, deleting some 15 slaves first f None. |
CSCdp57673 | RPM removal trap will show incorrect functionModuleState (ACTIVE). |
CSCdp46345 | When the active PXM card is pulled, there is APS protection and standby back card takes over. However, this is avialable only for sonet interfaces. Hence intelligence needs to be put in, so that for T3 / E3 back cards or if there is no APS protection, we cause a switchover on back card removal. |
CSCdp34543 | Install bt fails when it tries to program the flash on the standby card.This problem is with the database manager and the file transfer code. If an active PXM gets reset while the database manager is copying files to the standby, the new active card database manager will be left in a state where it cannot mirror files to the standby. Workaround Before trying the install command, use the shellconn "dbmFileShow" command on the active. If it shows any file in the state of being copied, you will have the problem. Do a switchcc to clear the problem. |
CSCdr01410
| PXM resets if holding down the return key while cc'ed to a service module. Workaround: Don't hold the return key. |
CSCdr01426 | Error logs overwritten and no core dump taken |
CSCdp93004 | hen a connection fails, the a-bit status displayed on the connection manager for the particular connection always stays as "ok". The PXM doesnot send the abit information to the connection manager. So the abit information doesnot reach the connection manager and thechannel status is not reflected in the CWM. It is displayed as "ok" even if the channel is in failed state . |
CSCdp66005 | Symptoms: PXM UNI connections added on a port which is in alarm remain in alarm even after the port alarm is cleared. Conditions: This problem is reproducible. If connections already existing on a clear port are put in alarm by causing a port alarm, the alarms get cleared on clearing the port alarm. Only connections added on a port in alarm remain in alarm state even after clearing the port alarm. This problem was first seen in image 1.1.21Lc. Workaround: Before adding UNI connections originating from any SM, make sure that the ports at the two endpoints are clear of any alarms. Alarms on a connection can also be cleared by doing an SM reset. |
CSCdm91930
| The LED status in CWM are different for lines in same status in Active card and hotstandby. |
CSCdr15892
| addlnloop on the PXM causes sonet line alarms, which sometimes do not clear when the loop is removed. |
CSCdr06052 | dspcd in PXM would show the FAB number as 800-XXX which is actually the PCB Number. Work Around: The dspnovram command would help in reading the FAB Number. |
CSCdp51707 | After removing a Service Module, and inserting an RPM in the same slot would causethe RPM to go to Active State instead of Mismatch. Work Around: "resetcd" would work at times. But it's better to do a clrsmcnf for the RPM slot. |
CSCdp89717 | n some cases, when RPM fails, it is not declared as failed on PXM.And any attempt to cc to this FAILED card fails, even though it is showing ACTIVE on PXM. So this is not a cc problem, but the card state should be changed from ACTIVE to FAILED. Workaround: check the console of RPM and if it has failed, reset the card either from console (using "reload" command) or from PXM (using "resetcd <slotno>" command). |
CSCdp96632 | Table rpm_port parameter will have -1 value even the port is in active state. rpm_port parameter table is having wrong value because the status given by RPM does not match with the values expected by MIB definations.As a result this the retrived values show wrong status. |
CSCdr14672
| Standby FRSM shows not available under redundancy and hot standby table. Happened once. User was performing a lot of operations such as softswitch, switchcc, delapsln, addapsln, switchapsln. dspred and dsphotstandby command outputs however, show one slot to be empty and second one available as hotstandby respectively. It is not possible to softswitch from one to the other since one is not available as a standby. |
CSCdr05471 | Softswitch caused FRSM-CT3 cards to goto failed state. ed map in the PXM had the same slot number for both the entries. |
CSCdp81287 | clrsmcnf says unspported SM for CESM-8E1 |
CSCdr02667 | When IMA ports are configured on AUSM via SRM (BULK distribution), execution of "switchcc" causes IMA port failure. Workaround None |
CSCdr10332 | Upon switchcc ausm in bulk mode receives wrong vpi-vci cells. The setup includes ausm to ausm DAX connection. An ATM tester is connected to one ausm and traffic is pumped through it. The other ausm is configured in bulk mode. Traffic is being pumped on 4 ports of the card. When a switchcc is done some ports of ausm get cells with wrong vpi-vci. Some recover and some not.this was observed more frequently when a back card was inserted in theausm slot configured in bulk mode. This was also observed when the back card was not present. |
CSCdr09927 | AUSM configured with an IMA port sends the trap 50231 on softswitch. The trap contains the varbind imaPortState.0 (Integer): failed DueToImaSigFailure.The description for 50231 says "Indicates that IMA group is active" that contradicts with the value of the varbind imaPortState seen in the trap. Workaround: None |
CSCdr17959 | AUSM card hangs if 2 to 3 ILMI requests are sent on a port. It reboots if 5 ILMI requests are sent. Workaround: Disable ILMI. |
CSCdp71073 | After softswitch the wrong slot number is used for some log messages |
CSCdr20239 | Symptom: tstcon clears alarm status of connection when connection is failed due to remote abit faiulre. conditions: connection has to be feeder, there are no other known conditons. Moreover this problem doesn't seem to happen always. Workaround: currently there is no workaround for this problem. resetting the card might get right alarm status. |
CSCdp94060 | Receiving user connection modification traps 25015 for no reason |
CSCdr05045 | Trap varbinds missin in ChanOAMLpbkStatus Trap 50311 |
CSCdr16720 | Problem Description: Softswitch caused the standby FRSM-VHS to Failed state. (Though softswitch succeeded according to the CLI it really didn't occur. Setup: FRSM-2T3 cards in Slots 1 & 2, configured for 1:1 redundancy with Y cable and connectedto ADC-Kentrok DSU. Traffic was pumped from Tekelec tester to the cards. FRSM-2T3 in Slot 1 was in Active and FRSM-2T3 in Slot 2 was in Standby. Steps involved: With the traffic present, configured cnflnsubrate on FRSM-2T3 on the Active card i.e Slot 1. The configuration went fine. Now did a softswitch. The softswitch cli got executed and the dspcds cli executed immediately after the softswitch, showed the Slot 1 as still active and Slot 2 as standby, but the redundancy column was giving the message coveringSlot 1. The next dspcds after sometime, showed the card in Slot 2 as Failed (It was supposedto have come to Active and the card in Slot 1 should have gone to Standby).The card in Slot 1 never got reset and the traffic continuity was perfect. |
CSCdr19456
| Sending 5 ilmi requests to an AUSM card make the directly connected AUSM card to reboot. Setting up an HP test set to a directly connected AUSM card. Created a connection to another AUSM card with a loopback plug on that port. After sending only two ilmi requests the directly connected AUSM card locks up. After sending five ilmi requests the directly connected AUSM |
CSCdp84145 | When add a connection from CWM using local and remote nodename which is different from the one configured on the node (because CWM is not synced with Popeye 1) , the addcon request erroneously passes and the connection gets added.This is because of the fact that the some service modules are not doing the checking for the Local Nodename. It just passes the Local Nodename without checking whether it is valid or not. When the addcon request comes to PAR, we check whether the local and remote NSAP match or not, in case they match we allow the addcon to go through. PAR assumes the Local nodename to be correctly passed from Platform. The error is not seen when we try to add a connection from CLI with incorrect remote nodename. In case of CLI, we don't have to specify the Local Nodename, it is extracted from the database by the respective Service Module. This problem is only seen when we use CWM(to reproduce the problem one can use SNMP set as well). We need make sure that Service Modules are doing the validity check for Local Nodename before sending the Hard Disk Update to Platform or not. |
CSCdp57090 | E1 external clock config reverts to T1 after resetsys |
CSCdp60443
| Symptom: switchover induced by removing the backcards resulting 15sec data outage. Workaround: User has to do either softswitch or resetcd and remove the backcard of standby card. |
CSCdp63922 | Connections could not be added successfully from a SM, with a particular port/DLCI combo that did not seem to be used. |
CSCdr11454 | PVC alarm status was not reported correctly after a softswitch was executed on fRSM-2cT3 |
CSCdr19456 | Sending 5 ilmi requests to an AUSM card make the directly connected AUSM card to reboot. Setting up an HP test set to a directly connected AUSM card and loopback on the port. |
CSCdk71643 | Symptom/Condition: This is suppose to be an added feature that gives robust end to end connectivity with full recovery in cases of error. But unfortunately, with the current design it will take some extra effort and time to provide this. It will be part of future enhancement and may be available in the next release. Just a little note about why, any Traps sent to PAR are directed by LCN number which is not available without a complete end to end connection, which currently limits the generation of Traps for incomplete connections (after a stipulated timeout period). For now, due to absence of these traps a little more responsibility goes to the end user who is creating end to end connections. It is important that if and when a connection is added or removed both Master and Slave end of the connection should be added or removed respectively. Only one side of a connection should not be removed to create a new connection with the other side. Hence creating and deleting connections under any circumstance is complete only with the creation and deletion of both end of the connections. Failure to do this can result in unneeded dangling connections. |
CSCdk86638 | Symptom: When using CWM to add connections, if the connection addition request times out, subsequent addition of the same connection may fail as well, complaining that the connection already exists (even though it timed out). Description: This is caused by two factors: 1. CWM assumes that when time out, connections are not added on the switch on which the timeout occurs, and thereby only removes other segments of the timed out connection on other involved nodes. 2. On MGX switch, when CWM reports connection timeout, it does not necessarily mean a timeout on the switch. The CWM timeout may be caused, for example, by the network delay etc. from switch and CWM. The connection may actually be provisioned on the switch. Workaround: Don't use the same vpi/vci/dlci used by the timed out connections. This can be fixed by CWM to perform a retrieval to check if the connection is actually provisioned or not on the switch, after connection addition times out. |
CSCdm05358 | Symptom: When modifying a particular protected memory address on CESM8p which causes CESM HW watchdog reset, PXM got reset or lost SAR functionality. Description: When this happens, CESM sent a huge amount of traffic onto the management connection which is supposed to be used for intercard communication activities such as polling. This traffic causes the SAR to spend all its resources on doing the cleaning/flushing in ISR (interrupt service). This address should never be modified using the shellConn 'modify' command. It was used unknowingly in debug/test process. Workaround: Don't try to modify this protected address in shellConn (m 0xb300060) (0xb300060 is ATMizer CPU address for SAR on CESM8P). As a general guideline, shellConn commands like 'modify memory' should not be used by the customer. |
CSCdm10722 | Symptom/Condition: The install, newrev and commit commands for service module upgrade (there is no concept of downgrade here, as there exits only one valid, service module image on the disk at a time), do not follow, the same state machine as PXM commands in the current release. Hence, it is mandatory, that for service modules, these commands are given in the documented order, which is: (1) install (2) newrev (3) commit WARNING: If these, commands are not given in the above specified order, we can be in a situation where we can have two different images running on the primary/secondary combination. However, on the disk, there is only one valid image for the service modules. Workaround: Assuming, that these commands were given out of order, and now we have two different images, running, on primary / secondary combination. f1 - Old image version f2 - Newly downloaded image (1) Reset the secondary card, so that it comes up, with f2. (2) Do a softswitch between the two cards, so that secondary takes over and becomes active. At the same time, primary is reset, and comes up with f2. (3) If you may, you can now, do a softswitch, to revert back to the original primary, to restore normal state. |
CSCdm22510 | Symptom: Connection traps are not sent out when receiving A bit update from CPE. Conditions: The end result of this is that CWM will not be notified about the channel status change (failure or normal), neither will PXM/PAR. The remote end is notified via in band OAM. This applies to all service modules. Workaround: No Workaround For more information on this bug, see the note at the end of this section. |
CSCdm31437 | Conditions: SV+ needs a trap when a line is added or deleted. Symptoms: In a Feeder case, SV+ is informed of a line addition through Inband communication. However, in case of stand-alone configuration SV+ needs a trap to determine addition or deletion of lines. Workaround: There is currently no work around for this. |
CSCdm53758 | Problem: Channel alarms do not get propagated to the middle segment if NNI signalling is enabled. Cause: This happens because the channel level traps are disabled. This will be fixed once a bulk trap mechanism is implemented to indicate channel alarms. Workaround: None. |
CSCdm56094 | Symptom The far end device can not be put into a loopback using the "Far End Inband Loopback" or the "Far End ESF Loopback" options under the "DEVICE TO LOOP" menu in the "cnfbert" command. If these options are chosen as part of a BERT pattern test, then the test will not be configured as it will fail to sync the pattern. Condition The inband and ESF loopbacks are activated/de-activated by transmitting the loopback codes for the minimum number of seconds specified by the ANSI T1.403 specification. However, due to variations in the way time is measured by the AUSM and the far-end devices, some devices do not detect the code for the desired number of seconds and hence they do not activate/deactivate the loopback. Workaround This problem may not be seen on all (far-end) devices. If it is seen, then there is no workaround other than trying to repeat the test configuration till it is successful. |
CSCdm80941 | Symptom: Unable to add 3-segment connection using CM GUI when we have feeder connected to BXM card of BPX routing node and for BXM trunk. Configuration: ILMI/LMI protocol is enabled as CARD based. Workaround: Before adding Feeder shelf to BXM trunk, configure BXM trunk ("cnftrk" command) with "Protocol by the Card" as NO and then add shelf. If you want card-based ILMI/LMI, run "cnftrk" again to reconfigure option. If you have already added shelf to BXM trunk and ILMI/LMI protocol is card-based from very beginning of upping the trunk, configure the trunk to have "Protocol by the Card" as NO, then reconfigure it back to card-based protocol. |
CSCdp11859 | Symptom: The ABCD bits that are produced on the egress of a CCS-to-CAS connection seem to have a random/unpredictable pattern. As this also applies to the MFA signal, attached devices might go OOMF. Workaround: There is currently no work around for this. |
CSCdm21127 | Symptom: Connections set-up with the WAN manager have not enough BW in the ATM part. The WAN manager translates the CIR into ATM cells according to the following relation: Cells/s=CIR(bits/s)/384. The full ATM payload is assumed available and there is no reserve for protocol overhead and padding of AAL5. |
CSCdp44837 | Symptom : When deleting large no. of connections using a script, it was found that for some connections, the resorces were not freed properly. Workaround : do switchcc |
CSCdk86638 | Symptom: When using CWM to add connections, if the connection addition request times out, subsequent addition of the same connection may fail as well, complaining that the connection already exists (even though it timed out). Description: This is caused by two factors: 1. CWM assumes that when time out, connections are not added on the switch on which the timeout occurs, and thereby only removes other segments of the timed out connection on other involved nodes. 2. On MGX switch, when CWM reports connection timeout, it does not necessarily mean a timeout on the switch. The CWM timeout may be caused, for example, by the network delay etc. from switch and CWM. The connection may actually be provisioned on the switch. Workaround: Don't use the same vpi/vci/dlci used by the timed out connections. This can be fixed by CWM to perform a retrieval to check if the connection is actually provisioned or not on the switch, after connection addition times out. |
CSCdp51707 | Symptom: RPM card becomes active when it should go to mismatch state. Remove AUSM without doing clrsmcnf and install RPM. Workaround: None. |
CSCdp46927 | Symptoms: vismcard in alarm after addcid Conditions: while doing addcon when line is in alarm Work Around : reset vism card . |
CSCdp57673 | Symptom: RPM removal trap will show incorrect functionModuleState (ACTIVE). Conditions: RPM removal. Workaround: None. |
CSCdp52549 | This software error has been a one time occurence when deleting a connection. The cause of the software error is a retry attempt to delete a connection which is already in the process of deletion. The error is just a warning and has no side effect on the connection which is deleted. |
CSCdp39900 | The software error is logged when trying to allocate a msg buffer to send VSI commmit for a connection. Buffer allocation problem was fixed by bug CSCdp29728. Retest the problem with the fix for bug CSCdp29278. If the problem doesn't exist, we can close the bug. |
CSCdp63924 | SYSTEM ERROR 20102 (PV_DB_RMV_ERR) is reported when we try to refer a completed transaction. This is duplicate of the bug CSCdp39894 |
CSCdp59851 | Customer is currently BLOCKED. 2 channels have deleted automatically. Per the log messages, PAR failed, followed by PVC deletion. |
CSCdp65639 | This is needed in cases of abnormalities such as excessive error logging which are more prevalent when the product is is in development in engineering environment. Conditions such as these are not expected to occur in released software. Existence of any such problem that can lead to time out scenario described in the bug report would be the one to be addressed as the root cause. There are no known outstanding issues of such nature at this time in released software. |
CSCdp44837 | Symptom : When deleting large no. of connections using a script, it was found that for some connections, the resorces were not freed properly. Workaround : do swithcc |
CSCdp39894 | The software error is logged as a result of an attempt to refer to a transaction that is already complete. Such an attempt is due to a retry resulting from a timeout. Since the transaction is already complete, the error is logged only for information and has no serious implication in this case. |
CSCdp48790 | This problem has not been reproducable. It was primarily a display issue observed on a one time occurence. |
CSCdp32043 | Sv+ node sync always failed because of timeout, dut to tftp very low. This condition was caused by manually issueing multiple switchccs on the active PXM during config uploads from a SM to CWM. This condition happens when atleast three such uploads to a SM is terminated by the swithchccs. Hitting this window is extremely rare as config uploads start and finish with in a very short duration. The recovery from this condition is to reboot the SM. The chances of happening this in the field is very very remote. Engineering has a solution for this problem, which would be thoroughly tested before it is released. |
CSCdp36477 | Symptom: switchcc on 8850 causes a Sig_F aps line switch on BPX Conditions: This happens rarely on our shelves. Workaround: None |
CSCdp70729 | Customer seeing differences between the AXIS and the popeye when trying to do an SNMP switchCoreCard. |
CSCdp65652 | The ImaGroupRxImaId is not updating properly on the AUSM when the TxImaGroupId parameter is manually changed via the Kentrox CPE. |
CSCdp71073 | Customer has performed a softswitch with redundancy setup between slot 22 and slot 30. After reviewing the logs, they noticed that the wrong slot numbers are referenced in the log. They believe that axis slots are being referenced rather then popeye slots. |
CSCdp50317 | Problem: Information displayed using the "dsphotstandby" command is not consistent. Symptoms: When one of the cards in a 1:1 Hotstandby pair is pulled, the dsphotstandby command displays out, it displays "Slot XX :SM not in Hot Standby state.". If you never inserted an SM with Hotstandby following the last shelf reset, it displays a slightly different message. "Slot XX :SM linked by 1:1 Redundancy. HSB not supported." Workaround: None required. If there is no SM in the slot, both the messages indicated that there is no Hotstandby in this slot. |
CSCdp60443 | upto 15 sec outage on FRSM-2CT3 when backcard removed. Workaround: User has to do either softswitch or resetcd and remove the backcard of standby card. |
CSCdp57673 | RPM removal trap will show incorrect functionModuleState (ACTIVE). Workaround None |
The NNI part of the connection is working correctly. A=0 is being sent from the tester to the local port of the FRSM and the remote port of the FRSM is sending A=0 to the remote port of the tester. However, Test Suite 16 of Bellcore's Frame Relay Protocol Conformance Certification Test Suites states "Since the active /inactive indication is independent of direction, the IUT(FRSM) Local port (DLCI 16) should transmit STATUS messages with ACTIVE status to the local test equipment." In other words port 1(Local port) of the FRSM should also transmit A=1 back to port 1(Local port) of the tester. This is stated in Frame Relay Forum Document No. FRF 2.1 Frame Relay Network-to-Network Interface Implementation Agreement. This was verified by Bellcore Engineer:
The last sentence of the expected results statement: "Since the active/inactive indication is independent of direction, the IUT Local port (DLCI 16) should transmit STATUS messages with ACTIVE status to the local test equipment." is correct as stated. This statement actually reflects a requirement from FRF 2.1 Section 4.2:
"PVC status information from full status reports and optionally from single PVC asynchronous status reports shall be propagated towards the user-to-network interface (UNI) of the multi-network PVC. The PVC status information element active bit state signaled at the NNI is independent of the PVC status information element active bit state signaled in the other direction at the same NNI."
Bidirectional status signaling requires that a user side process and a network side process execute concurrently. Nowhere in the requirements, Annex A, Annex D, FRF 2.1 does it state that these processes share information. They are totally independent. PVC status is signalled to the local user based on the service affecting conditions or PVC status signaled from the remote user side.
Two sets of sequence numbers and local in-channel signalling parameters are administered for the network-to-network interface as shown below; see the table for parameter ranges and default values.
user side procedures - T391, N391, N392, and N393
network side procedures - T392, N392, and N393
The table below summarizes the acceptable values when using bidirectional procedures at the NNI. The default values should be used as the actual system system parameter values. Parameter values other than the default values are a subscription time option. Procedures for starting and stopping T391 and T392 aredescribed in Q.933 Annex A.
| Name | Range | Default | Units | Definition |
|---|---|---|---|---|
N391 | 1-255 | 6 | Polling Cycles | Full status(status of all PVCs)polling cycles. |
N392 | 1-10 | 3 | Errors | Number of errors during N393 monitored events which cause the channel/user side procedures to be declared inactive. This number may also be used by the user side procedures as the number of errors during N393 monitored events which cause the network side procedures to be be declared inactive. |
N393 | 1-10 | 4 | Events | Monitored events count. |
T391 | 5-30 | 10 | Seconds | Link integrity verification polling timer. |
T392 | 5-30 | 15 | Seconds | Timer for verification of polling cycle. |
Both networks are required to initiate status enquiry messages based on T391. A full status report is requested each N391 (default 6) polling cycles. Both networks shall have the same values for T391, T392, N392, and N393 for both user side procedures and network side procedures; N391 is not required to have the same value in both networks.
PVC status information from full status reports and optionally from single PVC asynchronous status reports shall be propagated towards the user-to-network interface (UNI) of the multi-network PVC. The PVC status information element active bit state signaled at the NNI is independent of the PVC status information element active bit state signalled in the other direction at the same NNI.
![]() |
Note In addition, when a PVC segment's active/inactive status has changed, or a PVC segment has been newly added or deleted, the network should respond to any poll (i.e., status enquiry) with a full status report. Alternatively, the network may generate a single PVC asynchronous status report to convey the PVC segment's status change. |
1. The show rscprtn command on RPM will always display the state as "out of sync". This does not necessarily mean that the config on the PXM and RPM are out of sync. The PXM software 1.1.23 does not fully recognize a particular message from RPM and hence assumes that it is out of sync.
2. WRED feature on the PA-A3 RPM is not functionally working.
These RPM anomalies are tied to its function with the MGX 8850. For generic IOS issues, refer to the 12.0.5T1 release notes.
