System Issues 21
System Issues The following system issues are identified at this release:
■ If the FESM diagnostic fails on a system power-up, the error message you
find will look similar to the following message. You then need to reboot the
system.
FAIL
-- Test[ 3 ]: FSM/FESM Powerup Diags ( MAC Test )
failed.
-- B3 in slot 10 FAILED diagnostics
Diagmgr : Diagnostics failed for slot 10, error 2
■ The system software does not support hot-swapping of Fast Ethernet
Switching Module (FESMs) and FDDI Switching Modules (FSMs).
■ 3Com recommends that you hot-swap one module at a time (except FESMs
and FSMs, as described in the previous System Issue). After you hot-swap a
module, wait until the system completes full initialization before you install
another module. One indication that initialization is complete is that the
Administration Console prompt appears on the screen. Under certain
circumstances, hot-swapping during initialization can cause a cold system
boot, disrupting bridging.
■ Roving Analysis is not supported on the FESM.
■ When configuring Roving Analysis on an ESM, the system will accept an
unknown MAC address as the analyzer port.
■ The first line in a user-defined packet filter must contain the name
definition for that packet filter. For example:
Name “forward IP frames”
indicates that this packet filter forwards IP frames.
