New Features for Cisco AS5200 Access Servers

This section describes the new features for Cisco AS5200 access servers.

Flash Load Helper

The Flash load helper feature in now supported for Release 11.2(10)P and higher. This feature enables you to upgrade system software on run-from-Flash systems that have a single bank of Flash memory. It is a lower-cost software upgrade solution than dual-bank Flash, which requires two banks of Flash memory on one SIMM.

Flash load helper is an automated procedure that reloads the ROM-based image, downloads the software to Flash memory, and reboots to the system image in Flash memory. Flash load helper performs checks and validations to maximize the success of a Flash upgrade and to minimize the chance of leaving Flash memory either in an erased state or with a file that cannot boot.

Fastboot

The fastboot feature is now supported for Release 11.2(10)P and higher. This feature speeds up the boot process by using the system image directly from the system bootstrap image without accessing the boot image. To enable this feature, perform a write memory by entering the copy running-config startup-config command when running Release 11.2(10)P or later.

---

Note   If you run an image earlier than 11.2(7)P or perform a write memory with version 11.2(7)P to 11.2(9)P, the feature will automatically disable itself.

---

Channelized E1 Signaling for the Cisco AS5200

The Cisco AS5200 access server now supports channel-associated signaling for channelized E1 lines, which are commonly deployed in networks in Latin America, Asia, and Europe.

After this feature is configured on a single E1 controller, up to 30 remote users can simultaneously dial in to the Cisco AS5200 through networks running the R2 protocol. Typically all 30 channels of a channelized E1 line are used for analog calls. However, a signal converter is still needed to perform conversions between R2 signaling and ear and mouth signaling (also known as E&M). Because the Cisco AS5200 has two physical E1 ports on its dual E1 Primary Rate Interface (PRI) board, up to 60 simultaneous connections can be made through the dual E1 PRI board.

These service adapters provide high-performance, hardware-based data compression capabilities via simultaneous stacker compression data compression algorithms with independent full-duplex compression and decompression capabilities on Point-to-Point protocol (PPP) encapsulated packets.

Robbed Bit Signaling for the Cisco AS5200

New types of signaling provided for a channelized T1 include ground start and loop start support. This new signaling is set using the cas-group controller configuration command.

Dual E1 PRI for the Cisco AS5200

This new E1 PRI card has two E1 controllers, which provide physical termination for two E1 PRI lines. Unlike most controller E1 configurations, the Cisco AS5200's E1 PRI controllers require a clock source, which is set with the clock source command.

Bundled Modem Code

For 56K modems, Cisco IOS Release 11.2(10)P includes bundled modem code version 3.1.30. The modem code filename is:

mcom-modem-code-3.1.30.bin

Caveats for Release 11.2(10a)P1

This section describes possibly unexpected behavior by Cisco IOS Release 11.2(10a)P1. Unless otherwise noted, these caveats apply to Release 11.2 up to and including 11.2(10a)P1. The caveats listed here describe only the serious problems. For the complete list of caveats against Release 11.2, use the Documentation CD-ROM or access CCO as described in the section "Cisco Connection Online" later in this document.

AppleTalk

•When using ARAP 2.1 on routers running Cisco IOS Release 11.2, the client connects, the authentication negotiates, and then the connection drops with a message indicating that the server called is not a valid remote access server. As a workaround, use Cisco IOS Release 11.1, which works with both ARAP 2.0.1 and 2.1. [CSCdi91670]

•When using the ARAP client 2.1, the user is not able to dial in to an AS5200 with Cisco IOS Release 11.1 if the AS5200 has autoselect configured.

To work around this problem, do one of the following:

- Remove autoselect and use ARAP dedicated.

- Use the ARAP 2.0.1 client instead.

- Turn on MNP10 on the ARAP 2.1 client.

- Modify the client CCL script to extend the pause to 3 seconds before exiting. [CSCdj09817]

Basic System Services

•The router might reload when trying to process the show accounting command. [CSCdi69364]

•The show stacks command fails to report the correct version of code running at the time of the last reload. This problem occurs when the Flash version of the Cisco IOS software does not match the running version of code. [CSCdi74380]

•Adding an RSRB peer with direct encapsulation on a Cisco 7000 router configured with CSNA causes a "%RSP-3-RESTART: cbus complex" error and takes down the CIP interface. [CSCdi82836]

•Fast switching and optimum switching counters should be broken out separately in the output of the show interface switching command. [CSCdi87008]

•Traffic shaping is not currently supported over tunnels of any type or switching mode. The feature is currently under development. [CSCdi88997]

•If the map-list command is configured, issuing the show running command may cause the router to crash if the "Last configuration change at..." informational string exceeds a total length of 80 characters. [CSCdj13986]

•When a router is configured with the command ip identd and with aaa authentication login default tacacs+ enable the router will reload itself under these conditions:

- The router is resolving host names via an external DNS server.

- The TACACS server is down.

- The user gains access to the router via the backup "enable" method.

- The user attempts to Telnet from the router to a host on the network.

After the Telnet is initiated, the router will immediately reload.

The workaround for this problem is to not configure the ip identd command or to disable the identd process with the global command no ip identd (which is the default). [CSCdj19961]

•Boot Flash devices are not recognized when formatting boot Flash type A7, A6, or AA.

To run type A7, A6, or AA boot Flash devices and use images prior to this bug fix, format boot Flash with an image containing this bug fix. Then load an older image onto the newly formatted boot Flash SIMM. [CSCdj20651]

•An EXEC prompt does not appear until the TCP connection for accounting EXEC is sent and acknowledged. Accounting EXEC acts like wait-start, even though start-stop is configured. [CSCdj27123]

•The tacacs-server directed-request restricted command only applies to authentication, not to accounting or authorization. Therefore, there is no way to restrict a user's authorization or accounting to a given set of servers, which can lead to inconsistencies. For example, authentication for a directed user can be attempted only on the restricted servers, whereas authorization or accounting can be attempted on non-restricted servers as well. This inconsistency can cause authentication to pass while authorization fails for a given user. [CSCdj37496]

•When ATM traffic-shaping is enabled on an ATM interface along with priority-queueing, priority queuing does not work as desired.

To work around this problem, turn off ATM traffic-shaping over that interface. Another workaround is to use Cisco IOS Release 11.2(2) or earlier, including Release 11.1. [CSCdj45778]

•A Cisco 1000 node may send SNTP queries to the next hop along the route, instead of to the address configured in the SNTP server statement in the configuration. [CSCdj56216]

•High CPU utilization exists on a Cisco 4000-M using IP-SNMP after upgrading to Cisco IOS Release 11.2(9). [CSCdj56722]

IBM Connectivity

•The dlsw remote-peer frame-relay interface serial command does not work on a point-to-point subinterface. The workaround is to use multipoint and to do LLC mapping. [CSCdi55085]

•A bus error occurred at PC0x169a46. The stack trace indicates a problem in the LNX process. This problem occurs on X.25. [CSCdi73516]

•This caveat fixed an unimplemented trap, cipCardLinkFailure by deprecating it and implementing a new trap cipCardDtrBrdLinkFailure. Use the snmp-server enable traps channel-failures command to enable this new trap. [CSCdj32297]

•An APPN router may crash during an SNMP access to the APPN MIB. This problem only occurs after an unused APPN node is garbage collected. The crash has the following stack trace:

System was restarted by bus error at PC 0x8B5902, address 0x4AFC4AFC PC: process_snmp_trs_tg_inc

0x8B5CAC:_process_ms_data_req_trs(0x8b5aaa)+0x202 0x87E5FE:_xxxtos00(0x87d6b0)+0xf4e 0x180E5C:_process_hari_kari(0x180e5c)+0x0 [CSCdj36824]

•When testing FRAS BAN for SDLC attached PU 2.1 and PU 2.0 and using RSRB backup over PSTN, the PUs failed to connect after the Frame Relay interface was brought back up after a link failure.

The output of the show fras command showed ls-reset backup enabled. In order to reconnect the PUs, the fras backup rsrb statement had to be removed or the serial interfaces configuration had to be deleted and then readded. [CSCdj39306]

•When RSRB with TCP encapsulation is configured with priority peers and some of the priority peers are closed/dead, an explorer packet may continuously try to open the closed/dead priority peer. After several tries, the router may crash with memory corruption. [CSCdj47493]

•Normal non-extended unbind (0x3201) was extended with corrupted information which caused rejection by the host. As far as the host is concerned, the session is still active. A user cannot clean up this session without bringing down the link. [CSCdj50581]

Interfaces and Bridging

•On an RSP router, the "%CBUS-3-CTRUCHECK" error message is displayed and the Token Ring interface resets. To correct this problem, upgrade to RSP TRIP Microcode Version 20.1. [CSCdi74639]

•Under certain conditions, a memory leak may cause a router to reset if the bridge-group virtual interfaces for the new integrated routing and bridging (IRB) feature are not configured correctly.

A workaround is to ensure that there aren't any bridge-group virtual interfaces configured for logical/physical router interfaces that do not exist. [CSCdj02283]

•Enabling custom queuing may result in an excessive increase in CPU use. [CSCdj05099]

•When adding or removing a subinterface to a Frame Relay interface, all DLCIs are brought down until the Frame Relay switch sends the PVC information again. The whole interface will be reset when a user tries to add the ip address command. A workaround for part of the problem is to turn off CDP globally or on individual interfaces. In this case, the user can turn off CDP on the serial interface before adding or removing subinterfaces. CSCdj02488 (integrated into Cisco IOS Release 11.1(11) and 11.2(5.1)) fixed the rest of the problem.[CSCdj07291]

•The error "%CBUS-3-CTRUCHECK: Unit 0, Microcode Check Error" occurs on Token Ring interfaces, causing the interface to reset. [CSCdj08654]

•Under certain circumstances, rebooting a Cisco 2524 may cause the router to pause indefinitely with a T1 connected to a Fractional T1 module. The workaround is to unplug the T1 prior to the reload. [CSCdj22485]

•The pos specify-s1s0 and pos specify-c2 POS interface specific configuration commands do not work correctly. [CSCdj25166]

•A "System restarted by bus error at PC 0x4262AA, address 0xFFFFFFFC" message may be received when the frame-relay payload-compression packet-by-packet command is entered under the subinterface. [CSCdj49344]

•Compression for HDLC encapsulated bridging only payload compresses Spanning Protocol packets. Actual bridged packets are forwarded with their payloads uncompressed. Prior to this release, bridged packets may have had their MAC addresses corrupted if STAC compression was enabled with HDLC encapsulation. [CSCdj50894]]

•On the Cisco AS5200 platform, a group of four ports may stop processing PPP packets on the interface. You can identify this problem by looking for a group of four contiguous ports that have a much higher volume of calls than the other ports on the AS5200. Currently, the only workaround is to reload the router. The port modems should be busied out until the router can be reloaded. [CSCdj51974]

•With IRB configured on the router, IPX clients cannot log into services on a bridged interface. Removing the IPX routing from the BVI fixes the bridged interface but you'll loose the routing. At this time, this feature is not supported. [CSCdj54050]

•If you are doing IRB with RFC1483 PVCs, you may see certain IP anomalies such as ARP resolution not working or the ARP resolutions take place yet you cannot ping the neighboring device. [CSCdj54558]

IP Routing Protocols

•If the summary-address statement is removed on a remote router that advertises summary-address routes on only one path, then the core router sees both equal cost paths. This problem occurs on OSPF with NSSA. [CSCdj38067]

•If two routing protocols with mutual redistribution cause a routing loop, it is possible that the loop will remain even after updates have been filtered. The problem usually occurs after a clear ip route * command is issued after applying the filters. If the routes are allowed to age out the normal way, the problem does not occur. If OSPF is running, the workaround is to issue the clear ip ospf redistribution command. [CSCdj38397]

•When attempting to set the ipNetToMediaType value with SNMP the following error is returned and the value is not set:

snmpset: The value given has incorrect type or length. [CSCdj43710]

•In the presence of a large number of subnets, a CPUHOG message like the following may be generated:

%SYS-3-CPUHOG: Task ran for 2608 msec (73/65), Process = BGP scanner, PC = 176388

[CSCdj45966]

•Manual summarization with EIGRP does not work correctly. A summary route does not get advertised but one or more of the more specific routes do. [CSCdj46525]

•Under certain conditions, an LS type 5 is not generated by the ABR in response to a received LS type 7. [CSCdj55301]

•The router's internal address is advertised as a host route instead of a network in the router's LSA. A host route is represented as a Type 3 link (Stub Network) whose link ID is the host's IP address and whose link data is the mask of all ones (0xffffffff). This host route is advertised into all OSPF areas. [CSCdj56079]

•A problem will be caused by entering the ipx router command followed at anytime by a no ipx router command. The effects can be anything from to a steady memory leak, to unexpected router behavior to (as in this case) a router crash. This problem affects all routers. As a workaround, cycle power on the router after a no ipx router command is issued. [CSCdj51185]

ISO CLNS

•If secondary addresses are configured on an unnumbered interface, the interface routes corresponding to these addresses are not advertised in IS-IS. A workaround is to number the interface. [CSCdi60673]

•A crash was caused by an AVL node that was freed but was still accessed during tree traversing. This problem was a result of the node being deleted and freed in the middle of tree walk. This is an IS-IS (using AVL tree) specific problem. [CSCdj18685]

LAT

LAT services are not available on the router when IRB is enabled. [CSCdj52841]

Novell IPX, XNS, and Apollo Domain

•Adding XNS back into a router's configuration after it has been removed may cause a system to restart by bus error. This may only be a one-time event if it occurs at all. [CSCdj16694]

•When using IPX-EIGRP over ISDN with floating static routes, there may be a short delay (about 10 seconds) before the application is able to get through. [CSCdj38031]

•Before a floating static route is installed, a waiting period is observed when the network is down and unreachable. If IPX watchdogs or SPX keepalives arrive during this time, they will be dropped, leading to session timeouts. [CSCdj50629]

TCP/IP Host-Mode Services

•A direct broadcast with a physical-broadcast destination MAC address is not forwarded to helper address over ATM/LANE interfaces. [CSCdj51378]

TN3270

•TN3270 keymaps with three keystrokes defined for a TN3270 key will append the last character to the screen. The cursor will then move to the next cursor position on the screen. [CSCdj51702]

Wide-Area Networking

•When traffic prioritization is configured on a Frame Relay interface with the command frame-relay priority-dlci-group, the command no fair-queuing should also be configured on the serial interface to achieve effective traffic prioritization. [CSCdi52067]

•When using DLCI prioritization on a point-to-point Frame Relay subinterface and one of the DLCIs fail, the subinterface may bounce once or continually bounce during LMI full status reports, depending on whether LMI reports the DLCI as being DELETED or INACTIVE. This behavior is the same for every DLCI defined in the priority-dlci-group.

During normal behavior, the point-to-point subinterface should go down when the primary DLCI fails. If a secondary DLCI fails, the subinterface stays up, but traffic destined for that DLCI only will fail. [CSCdj11056]

•Types of serial and ISDN B-channels using MPPP over dialer profiles leads to situations where serial joins and leaves bundle ad infinitum. [CSCdj18693]

•When the dialer rotary-group command is entered on an interface that has ongoing calls, a crash may occur.

As a workaround bring down all ongoing calls by disconnecting or shutting down the interface and then adding the dialer rotary-group command. [CSCdj35360]
