PR 94134
Display of mobile ports by using the CLI “port range” command shows only the information about the
first port in the range on an OS9000.
Workaround:
The current CLI output for mobile ports is line based, which does not allow for a practical
output of the port range. CLI command to display the mobile port should not use port range in the
command.
PR 95896
On an OS9000, when user permissions are changed, they do not have an immediate effect.
Workaround:
The Session Manager polls the servers (through AAA) every 5 minutes for changes in
permissions. For an immediate impact, the administrator may remove the user from the switch to deprive
the user from certain permissions. This way the new permissions are current when the user logs on again.
By the same token, whenever an administrator decides to remove a user from the switch, he/she should
close all of the sessions to which the user is logged on.
PR 104635
Applying the non-hybrid version of the "interfaces" command to combo ports may result in an incorrect
configuration on an OS6850.
Workaround:
Use the hybrid command for combo ports and use the regular (non-hybrid) command for
regular (non-combo) ports.
For example, to set speed, use:
"interfaces <slot/port> hybrid fiber speed 100" for combo port.
"interfaces <slot/port> speed 100" for non-combo port.
PR 105168
When using the CLI "show ni" command, the display of XFP and SFP Model name and Description
displays the manufacturer's name. These fields should display the Model Name and device description.
Workaround:
There is no known workaround at this time.
