Introduction

The Cisco AS5200 is a multifaceted data communications platform that provides all the functions of an access server, a router, modems, and terminal adapters (TAs) in a modular chassis. Midsized organizations or service providers requiring centralized processing capabilities for mobile users and telecommuters will benefit the most using the Cisco AS5200.

With its optimization for high-speed modem access, the Cisco AS5200 is ideally suited for all traditional dial-up applications, such as host access, electronic mail, file transfer, and dial-in access to a local-area network.

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/620/6.html

Feature Set Tables

The Cisco IOS software is packaged in feature sets consisting of software images—depending on the platform. Each feature set contains a specific set of Cisco IOS features.


Caution Cisco IOS images with strong encryption (including, but not limited to, 168-bit Triple Data Encryption Standard [3DES] data encryption feature sets) are subject to United States government export controls and have limited distribution. Strong encryption images to be installed outside the United States are likely to require an export license. Customer orders may be denied or subject to delay because of United States government regulations. When applicable, the purchaser and user must obtain local import and use authorizations for all encryption strengths. Please contact your sales representative or distributor for more information, or send an e-mail to export@cisco.com.

Table 3 lists the features and feature sets supported by the Cisco AS5200 in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 and uses the following conventions:

Yes—The feature is supported in the software image.

No—The feature is not supported in the software image.


Note This table might not be cumulative or list all the features in each image. You can find the most current Cisco IOS documentation on Cisco.com. These electronic documents may contain updates and modifications made after the hardcopy documents were printed. If you have a Cisco.com login account, you can find image and release information regarding features prior to Cisco IOS Release 11.2(26) by using the Feature Navigator tool at: http://www.cisco.com/go/fn.

3 IRB supports IP, IPX, and AppleTalk; it is supported for transparent bridging, but not for SRB; it is supported on all media-type interfaces except X.25 and ISDN bridged interfaces; and IRB and concurrent routing and bridging (CRB) cannot operate at the same time.

4 The Novell IPX feature includes display SAP by name, IPX Access Control List violation logging, and plain-English IPX access lists.

5 ISDN support includes calling line identification (ANI), X.25 over the B channel, ISDN subaddressing, and applicable WAN optimization features.

6 PPP includes support for LAN protocols supported by the feature set, address negotiation, PAP and CHAP authentication, and PPP compression, and Multilink PPP.

7 X.25 includes X.25 switching.

8 IPX header compression (RFC 1553) is available in the feature sets that support IPX.

9 X.25 and Frame Relay payload compression are supported.

10 BGP4 includes soft configuration, multipath support, and prefix filtering with inbound route maps.

11 The RMON events and alarms groups are supported on all interfaces. Full RMON support is available with the Plus feature sets.

12 TACACS+ Single Connection and TACACS+ SENDAUTH enhancements are supported.

13 Cisco IOS Release 11.2 introduces several DLSw+ enhancements available in the Plus, Plus 40, and Plus 56 feature sets.

14 SRB/RSRB is fast switched. This enhancement is on by default, but can be disabled.

15 This feature is supported on access servers (with limited support on router auxiliary ports).

16 Use of LAT requires terminal license (FR-L8-10.X= for an 8-user license or FR-L16-10.X= for a 16-user license).


New and Changed Information

There are no new hardware and software features supported by the Cisco AS5200 for Cisco IOS Release 11.2(26).

Caveats

Caveats describe unexpected behavior in Cisco IOS software releases. Severity 1 caveats are the most serious caveats; severity 2 caveats are less serious. Severity 3 caveats are moderate caveats, and only select severity 3 caveats are included in the caveats document.

This section contains only open and resolved caveats for the current Cisco IOS maintenance release.

For information on caveats in Cisco IOS Release 11.2, see "Important Notes and Caveats for Release 11.2" in Cross-Platform Release Notes for Cisco IOS Release 11.2 on Cisco.com and the Documentation CD-ROM. These release notes contain caveats affecting all maintenance releases, and list severity 1 and 2 caveats and select severity 3 caveats for Cisco IOS Release 11.2(26).

Open Caveats—Cisco IOS Release 11.2

This section describes possibly unexpected behavior by Cisco IOS Release 11.2 and describes only severity 1 and 2 caveats:

Basic System Services

CSCdk09959

Traffic shaping was found to be broken in 11.2(7.2)P onwards due to another bug fix. The fix was tested in the lab and was working fine with traffic passing through the router but if ping was used from both routers on each side, traffic shaping was seen to be broken again. This was later fixed and tested in the lab. In customer's production environment, there were still some UPC violations but there was a vast improvement from the earlier case where traffic shaping seemed to be not working at all. The exact cause for UPC violations in production environment could not be identified.

There is no workaround.

Customer agreed to have these fixes incorporated in the standard release train so they can use these features.

CSCdp73519

Router hangs at usecdelay.

There is no workaround.

CSCdr11715

On very rare occasions a router will crash when being managed via the http console.

Workaround: Disable the http server on the router.

IBM Connectivity

CSCdp20000

Several platforms are crashing with bus error, in 11.2(15a) and 11.2(15a)P.

There is no workaround.

Interfaces and Bridging

CSCdi81407

The FDDI interface driver can interact poorly with OSPF during OIR, causing SPF recalculations. This occurs only when OSPF is running on an FDDI interface that is not being inserted or removed. This fix eliminates the spurious indication from the driver that the SPF recalculation needs to take place.

IP Routing Protocols

CSCdm16194

EIGRP does not trigger the selection of a new route when one of the less desirable or equal paths is removed from the routing table. The route disappears, but no new route is selected from the topology table.

There is no workaround.

CSCdp18448

Static route to null is not redistributed to EIGRP neighbors when there is also manual summarization, configured on one of the interfaces, for the same network and prefix-length.

There is no workaround.

CSCdp36272

If a BGP peer's route to a BGP next-hop is learned via BGP, then a route flapping condition can occur in certain circumstances.

Workaround: Give the BGP peer a route to the next-hop via the IGP.

CSCdp44951

Router might experience a reload by bus error in rsvp_dump_object.

There is no workaround.

Miscellaneous

CSCdj06368

The SH VER output on an RSP router with an HSA configuration fails to differentiate between a reload caused by a power-cycle on the router and a user initiated reload. The router identified both situations with the following text string:

System restarted by reload

In addition, if the reload failure is caused by the failure of Master RSP such that the router reloads using the former Slave RSP, then the failure cause from the master is not visible unless one looks at the SH STACK output.

There is no workaround.

CSCdj73079

Packet OC-3 Interface Processor does not work with encryption GRE tunnel.

There is no workaround.

CSCdk12891

A crypto key exchange cannot be aborted while telnetted into the router.

Workaround: Until the problem is resolved, sessions can be cleared as follows using the show tcp bri followed by the clear tcp tcb <value>:

didi(config)# crypto key-ex passive 
Enter escape character to abort if connection does not complete. 
Wait for connection from peer[confirm] 
Waiting ....

CSCdk17443

A Cisco router configured to route IPX traffic through an encrypted Tunnel interface may reset unexpectedly.

There are two workarounds:

Disable IPX fast-switching by entering the following interface-level command on the Tunnel Interfaces.

no ipx route-cache

Disable Fast Tunneling by enabling a Tunnel ID key by entering the following interface-level command on the Tunnel interfaces.

tunnel key key-number

where key-number is any number in the range 0-4294967295

The Tunnel key ID MUST match on each end of the Tunnel.

CSCdk85414

Receiving data while running encryption on a Cisco 2500 Series router running Cisco IOS Release 11.2 causes the router to reload.

There is no workaround.

CSCdp97179

Memory corruption occurs with c4500.

CSCdr13668

A Cisco 4000 running 11.2(21) has no I/O memory 10h. After reload, the following errors occur:

There is no workaround.

Novell IPX, XNS, and Apollo Domain

CSCdm47697

There has been a problem with IPX connectivity since upgrading router from Cisco IOS Release 10.3 to Cisco IOS Release 11.2 between FDDI and other interfaces (serial and fastethernet). The City Hall router was upgraded. Rconsole from client on FDDI ring fails to servers on Ethernet segments, either local or remote, and cannot browse NDS server object for those servers. Clients on remote Ethernet segment can rconsole and browse FDDI servers.

CSCdm50939

The NLSP update process is pegged at 99% and will not decrease. A show ipx traffic indicates the partial route calculation process is incrementing rapidly.

Workaround: Issue clear ipx nlsp *

Protocol Translation

CSCdm74340

In 9.0, SUN HACK was added to the translations code, allowing SUN machines that only used LF for a carriage return. In the code, the first LF seen before a CR is converted to a CR and sent along. In 11.2, the HACK is in Cisco IOS software but does not work.

Wide-Area Networking

CSCdm94730

If an ARP is received on an incorrect interface (that is, a source IP address belonging to a subnet on another subinterface) on a router running Cisco IOS Release 11.2 and performing inter-ELAN routing, the router will update its ARP table with this incorrect information. Connectivity to that IP address in the correct subnet will then be lost until that IP address sends out an ARP on the correct subinterface.

There is no workaround. However, this problem is not present in Cisco IOS Release 12.0.

CSCdp43242

If a subinterface is configured with an encapsulation different from the encapsulation defined under the main interface, then the bridging will fail. The routing, however, will be correct. This appears in Cisco IOS Releases 11.0, 11.1, 11.2 and 11.3, but not in Cisco IOS Release 10.3.

Resolved Caveats—Cisco IOS Release 11.2

All the caveats listed in this section are resolved in Cisco IOS Release 11.2. This section only describes severity 1 and 2 caveats:

IBM Connectivity

CSCdp17578

An Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking (APPN) router might experience a memory leak if you save the Routing Information Field during link activation.

CSCdp63998

A Cisco router that is running Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking (APPN) might reload after the operator enters the show appn dlur-pu host-pu command.

CSCdp36862

A Cisco 7200 series router with a PA-4R port adapter might accept a packet with an invalid frame check sequence (FCS) and pass it on to remote source-route bridging (RSRB). This situation does not occur in the PA-4R-DTR port adapter.

IP Routing Protocols

CSCdk37681

The same global inside address is used for three different inside hosts—using dynamic address translation / 11.2.9 Cisco IOS software.

CSCdp05306

After a link flap, the summary route might not appear in the routing table although it appears in the OSPF topology table.

ISO CLNS

CSCdm42127

Under certain conditions, Cisco 7000 running Cisco IOS Release 11.2(18) may corrupt CLNS packets received on an ATM interface. This happens only when the packets are fast switched.

Miscellaneous

CSCdk41197

A Multiport Basic Rate Interface (MBRI) might pause indefinitely in "awaiting establishment" and "tei assigned" modes. Entering the clear interface bri interface number command establishes multiple frames on the port and allows another ISDN call to be made.

CSCdk51490

A crypto Access Control List (ACL) with a DENY ACE that specifies a TCP or User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port might cause fragments to be dropped.

Workaround: Arrange the crypto ACLs to have permits only when specifying ports. For example, instead of the following:

access-list 101 deny udp 200.200.20.0 0.0.0.255 200.200.30.0 0.0.0.255 eq 19 
access-list 101 deny udp 200.200.20.0 0.0.0.255 eq 19 200.200.30.0 0.0.0.255 
access-list 101 permit udp 200.200.20.0 0.0.0.255 200.200.30.0 0.0.0.255

use:

access-list 101 permit udp 200.200.20.0 0.0.0.255 ne 19 200.200.30.0 0.0.0.255 ne 19 
access-list 101 deny udp 200.200.20.0 0.0.0.255 200.200.30.0 0.0.0.255 eq 19 
access-list 101 deny udp 200.200.20.0 0.0.0.255 eq 19 200.200.30.0 0.0.0.255 

CSCdk64756

Router's DHCP proxy agent lets the same IP address to two users on different ports but with the same username.

CSCdk66567

If Token Ring is the endpoint of an encrypted tunnel, extra packets are generated. The symptoms are a high CPU load (mainly taken by the Crypto Engine) and inaccurate addresses when enabling the debug tunnel command.

CSCdp36078

Lock and Key idle-timers will not reset when there are packets that match the dynamic ACLs created by Lock and Key.

CSCdp37597

For c75xx running 112-18 code may crash with a segV exception in encryption processing.

CSCdp60101

When configured to provide access control, the Kerberos client on Cisco products will fail all authentications when the expiration of the credential falls between January and February of a leap year.

CSCdr02376

When HSRP is configured between two NM-1FE-TXs connected to any Cisco switch, both routers become active and the interface on the router with the lower HSRP priority will flap.

Security

CSCdr36952

A defect in multiple versions of Cisco IOS software will cause a Cisco router or switch to stop and reload if the Cisco IOS http service is enabled and an attempt is made to browse to http://&lt;router-ip. This defect can be exploited to produce a denial of service (DoS) attack. This defect has been discussed on public mailing lists and should be considered public information.

The vulnerability, identified as Cisco bug ID CSCdr36952, affects virtually all mainstream Cisco routers and switches running Cisco IOS Release 11.1 through Release 12.1. The vulnerability has been corrected and Cisco is making fixed versions available to replace all affected Cisco IOS releases. Customers are urged to upgrade to releases that are not vulnerable to this defect.

Please see http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/ioshttpserver-pub.shtml for the latest complete version of this security advisory.

Wide-Area Networking

CSCdk23860

Routers experience high CPU utilization during business hours (about 95% and more) and quite high (20-30%) anytime when the traffic is low. Alignment errors are causing high CPU load on Cisco 4700 routers running on Cisco IOS Release 11.2. This also occurs on Cisco 3600s and Cisco 7200s running Cisco IOS Release 12.0. This happens when Frame Relay Traffic Shaping is configured with priority or custom queuing with classification based on tcp/udp port number or ip fragmentation.

CSCdm44286

Cisco 7200 running 11.1(20)CA1 is affected by a memory leak. The process Critical Bkgnd is taking up all the available memory.
