Problem Reports

PR 86261

On an OS6800, Ethernet SNAP packets with non-zero Organizationally Unique Identifiers (OUI) will not be classified using port-protocol rule.

Workaround: If applicable, other rules should be used to classify such packets.

PR 94269

The OmniSwitch 9000 counts all error packets as unicast packets in the packets received and error counters, regardless of whether the packet is a unicast packet or a multicast packet. An oversized packet is defined as a packet longer than 9216 bytes. This causes the following behavior in the switch:

1)Received packets longer than 9216 bytes are counted as unicast packets AND as error packets even if the packet is a broadcast or multicast packet.

2)For ports operating at speeds of 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps, a packet is not counted as an error packet unless it is longer than 9216 bytes.

Workaround: There is no known workaround at this time.

PR 94866

Invalid Packets with SA or DA set to all 0's continue to get bridged by the system.

Workaround: There is no known workaround at this time.

PR 99331

On an OS6800, when protocol or subnet based mobility rules are deleted and created after a VLAN delete, the traffic coming in after this is not classified correctly.

Workaround: Delete the rule first before deleting the VLAN.

PR 99899

On an OS6800/OS6850, binding rules that require a port number to be specified as part of the rule can no longer be deleted if the port is not set to be mobile.

Workaround: Make the port mobile before deleting the rule.
