Caveats
Caveats describe unexpected behavior in Cisco IOS software releases. Severity1 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.
Because Cisco IOS Release 12.0S is based on Cisco IOS Release 12.0, many caveats that apply to Cisco IOS Release 12.0 will also apply to Cisco IOS Release 12.0S. For information on severity 1 and severity 2 caveats in Cisco IOS Release 12.0, see the Caveats for Cisco IOS Release 12.0 document located on Cisco.com.
Note
If you have an account on Cisco.com, you can also use the Bug Toolkit to find select caveats of any severity. To reach the Bug Toolkit, log in to Cisco.com and click Technical Support: Tools & Resources: Bug Toolkit. (The Bug Toolkit is listed under Troubleshooting.) Another option is to go to http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/Support/Bugtool/launch_bugtool.pl. (If the defect that you have requested cannot be displayed, this may be due to one or more of the following reasons: the defect number does not exist, the defect does not have a customer-visible description yet, or the defect has been marked Cisco Confidential.)

Resolved Caveats—Cisco IOS Release 12.0(33)S2
All the caveats listed in this section are resolved in Cisco IOS Release 12.0(33)S2. This section describes only severity 1, severity 2, and select severity 3 caveats.
These caveats are documented in the following format:
•
Symptoms: A description of what is observed when the caveat occurs.
•
Conditions: The conditions under which the caveat has been known to occur.
•
Workaround: Solutions, if available, to counteract the caveat.
Miscellaneous
•
CSCeb54456
Symptoms: A Data-link switching plus (DLSw+) circuit may not function when a TCP connection gets stuck. After about 90 seconds, the TCP connection is closed by DLSw+, and a new TCP connection is built for DLSw+. Once the new TCP connection is up, the DLSw+ circuit starts functioning again.
Conditions: This symptom is observed on a Cisco router that is configured with both a DLSw+ interface and an ATM interface.
Possible Workaround: If this is an option, remove the ATM interface from the router. When you configure the DLSw+ interface and the ATM interface on different routers, the symptom does not occur.
•
CSCek79311
Symptoms: Under stress conditions, an L2TP multihop node may crash.
Conditions: This symptom is observed when a session is being disconnected.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•
CSCse05292
Symptoms: A static map configuration for an ATM PVC that uses the protocol ip ip-address command is rejected, giving an ambiguous command error.
Conditions: This symptom is observed when you configure a static map on an ATM PVC using the protocol ip ip- address command.
Workaround: Explicitly configure the [broadcast | no broadcast] option:
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# protocol ip 10.10.100.2 broadcastRouter(config-if-atm-vc)# protocol ip 10.10.100.2 ?broadcast Pseudo-broadcastno Prevent Pseudo-broadcast on this connection<cr>Router(config-if-atm-vc)# protocol ip 10.10.100.2 no broadcastRouter(config-if-atm-vc)#•
CSCsi68795
Symptoms: A PE that is part of a confederation and that has received a VPNv4 prefix from an internal and an external confederation peer, may assign a local label to the prefix despite the fact that the prefix is not local to this PE and that the PE is not changing the BGP next-hop.
Conditions: The symptoms are observed when receiving the prefix via two paths from confederation peers.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
Further Problem Description: Whether or not the PE will chose to allocate a local label depends on the order that the multiple paths for this VPNv4 prefix are learned. The immediate impact is that the local label allocated takes up memory in the router as the router will populate the LFIB with the labels.
•
CSCsi77983
Symptoms: The NetFlow cache runs out of space for new flow entry when customer uses heavy traffic.
Conditions: Large amount of traffic, which could exhaust the NetFlow cache.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•
CSCsj30417
Symptoms: In Eng3 ATM, when a subinterface flaps, traffic to certain destinations is forwarded to the wrong subinterface.
Conditions: This symptom is observed in Cisco IOS Release 12.0(32)S05 and 12.0(32)S06. The symptom is not found in Cisco IOS Release 12.0(31)S2.
Workaround: There is no workaround; however, reloading the line card solves the problem.
•
CSCsj36133
Symptoms: A BGP neighbor may send a notification reporting that it received an invalid BGP message with a length of 4097 or 4098 bytes.
Conditions: The problem can be seen for pure IPv4 BGP sessions (no MP-BGP in use) when the router that is running the affected software generates a large number of withdraws in a short time period and fills an entire BGP update message (up to 4096 bytes normally) completely with withdraws. Because of a counting error, the router that is running the affected software can generate an update message that is 1 or 2 bytes too large when formatting withdraws close to the 4096 size boundary.
Workaround: The issue is not seen when multiple address families are being exchanged between BGP neighbors.
•
CSCsj49293
Symptoms: The interface output rate (214 Mb/s) is greater than the interface line rate (155 Mb/s).
Conditions: This symptom is observed with a Cisco 7600/7500/7200-NPE400 and below. That is, PA-POS-2OC3/1OC3 (PULL mode).
Workaround: There is no workaround.
Further Problem Description: From the Ixia, packets are transmitted at 320 Mb/s. On the UUT (Cisco 7600), the outgoing interface (POS-Enhanced Flexwan) shows the output rate as 200 Mb/s. But the interface bandwidth is 155 Mb/s.
•
CSCsk68742
Symptoms: The show ip mds stats linecard command shows MDFS reloads on all line cards.
Conditions: This symptom is observed when multicast distributed routing is added on a VRF through the configuration of the ip multicast-routing vrf vpn distributed command.
Further Problem Description: Note that while the MDFS reload is a real reload, it is without a preceding clear, so it will not generally cause traffic interruption because it merely causes the same information to be downloaded to the line cards again. However, in a highly scaled system that is running close to the limit, the additional load introduced by a full MDFS reload of every line card may cause additional failures owing to maxing out of the CPUs.
•
CSCsk69194
Symptoms: The shape average percent calculation is wrong.
Conditions: This symptom is observed on a Cisco 7500 router that is configured for dLFIoLL. The policy is attached to ATM and multilink interfaces.
Workaround: Use only absolute values in the shape policy.
•
CSCsk89546
Symptoms: OSPF routes are not populated in the Routing Information Base (RIB) with the next hop as traffic engineering (TE) tunnels.
Conditions: Occurs when multiple TE tunnels are configured and the tunnels come up or are shut/no shut simultaneously.
Workaround: Shut/no shut tunnels one at a time.
•
CSCsl05174
Symptoms:
–
Issue 1: A non-deleted PPP configuration inside the interface reappears when the interface is created again.
–
Issue 2: Some multilink configuration is not being synced to the standby (hold-queue).
Conditions: This symptom is observed when running RPR+.
Workaround: Reapply the original configuration.
Further Problem Description: Deletion of a multilink interface and subsequent creation using the same name may cause portions of the original configuration to return even if not explicitly configured. The hold-queue command is not being synchronized to the standby RP.
•
CSCsl51616
Symptoms: The v6-vrf-lite configuration does not synch properly with the standby; hence 100 percent of the traffic is lost after an SSO switchover.
Conditions: The conditions under which this symptom is observed are unknown.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•
CSCsl61164
Symptoms: Router may crash @ipflow_fill_data_in_flowset when changing flow version.
Conditions: Occurs when NetFlow is running with data export occurring while manually changing the flow-export version configuration from version 9 to version 5 and back to version 9 again.
Workaround: Do not change the NetFlow flow version while the router is exporting data and routing traffic.
•
CSCsl68227
Symptoms: An E3 linecard may drop packets larger than a certain size because of a buffer carving problem when the mtu command is used for multilink interfaces.
Conditions: This symptom is observed with images based on Cisco IOS Release 12.0(32)S10.
Workaround: Changing the MTU or reloading the linecard may clear the problem.
•
CSCsl83415
Symptoms: After executing the following CLI commands (steps mentioned alphabetically) via a script (not reproducible manually), the router sometimes crashes:
Test10:
a. clear ip bgp 10.0.101.46 ipv4 multicast out
b. clear ip bgp 10.0.101.47 ipv4 multicast out
Test 1:
c. show ip bgp ipv4 multicast nei 10.0.101.2
d. show ip bgp ipv4 multicast [<prefix>]
e. config terminal
The crash does not happen for each of the following cases:
1. If the same CLI is cut and paste manually, there is no crash.
2. If the clear cli command is not executed, there is no crash.
3. If the config terminal command is not entered, there is no crash.
Conditions: The symptom occurs after executing the above CLI.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•
CSCsm80425
Symptoms: A Cisco 7200 device crashes when a policy map is applied.
Conditions: This symptom is observed when the service policy map is applied on the channelized E3 interface of a Cisco 7200 VXR router and traffic is pumped.
Workaround: Remove the service policy map.
•
CSCsm96785
Symptoms: You may observe a problem which the OSPF neighbor is down after switch-over in spite of using OSPF Non-Stop Forwarding (NSF).
Conditions: This occurs with the following conditions:
–
"nsf cisco" is only affected. If "nsf ietf", this problem does not occur.
–
You may observe this problem if the OSPF interface is "point-to-multipoint non-broadcast" or "point-to-multipoint". If the interface is "broadcast", this problem does not occur.
–
When this problem occurs after switch-over, DBD packet may not be exchanged between two neighbors. And the neighbor is down in spite of NSF.
Workaround: Change the OSPF config to "nsf ietf" and change the OSPF interface to "broadcast".
•
CSCsm96842
Symptoms: The command hold-queue length in cannot be configured for port-channel interface.
Conditions: The symptom is observed with a Cisco 7600 series router after upgrading to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRC.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
Further Problem Description: Queueing is not supported for port-channel with a Cisco 7600 series router. The hold-queue is a legacy queueing command and is not supported.
•
CSCso15740
Symptoms: The "set metric" clause in the continue route-map sequence is not setting metric correctly in some particular conditions. This is also applicable in case where the nexthop setting is done via route-map with a continue clause.
Conditions: The symptom is observed on a Cisco 12000 series router that is running Cisco IOS Release 12.0(32)SY4. This is platform independent. This symptom occurs if the route-map has a continue clause and the match condition does not allow the continue clause to be executed. The following route-map sequence which has to be executed will not execute properly if the metric or nexthop of the prefix are to be modified via the route-map.
Workaround: Avoid using "continue" in a route-map and modifying metric or nexthop via the following route-map sequence.
•
CSCso32397
Symptoms: An unexpected reboot occurs because of a software-forced crash.
Conditions: This symptom is observed when changes are made in the policy map.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•
CSCso41824
Symptoms: A router crashes with an unexpected exception to CPUvector 300.
Conditions: This symptom is observed when you configure MPLS trunks on an 4xT3E3 SPA with FR IETF encapsulation.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•
CSCso46427
Symptoms: A device may crash when the show clns interface command is issued on the wrong interface.
Conditions: The symptom is observed when there are a number (around 100 or more) CLNS interfaces on the device.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•
CSCso51637
Symptoms: Router crashes.
Conditions: Router may crash in some cases after removing interface Auto-template and unconfiguring auto-mesh with large number of active mesh auto-tunnels. Currently, this crash has only been observed occasionally with internal scale test scripts and has not occurred with manual configuration.

CSCsq44598
Symptoms: A PA-POS-2OC3 experiences an output stuck condition.
Conditions: This issue is sporadic in nature and is sometimes seen with QoS configurations although QoS is not the cause of the issue. The issue is due to an extra interrupt, which is confusing the driver if it expires before the FIFO reaches the low point. For example, if the FIFO goes full but is filled with large packets, then it is possible that the no traffic timer will expire before the tx packets have emptied. It is a communication issue between the hardware and the driver code.
Workaround: There is no workaround.

Workaround: There is no workaround.
•
CSCsq83540
Symptoms: A Cisco 12000 works as a PE, and an Eng5 SIP line card is used to face the CE. In the VRF, the default route 0.0.0.0 is learned from the remote PE. When the problem occurs, all traffic from the CE that is forwarded via the VRF default route is dropped.
Conditions: This symptom is observed on a Cisco 12000 Eng5 SIP line card that is running Cisco IOS Release 12.0(32)SY04, 12.0(32)SY05, or 12.0(32)SY06. When VRFs are created and deleted, new VRFs that are created will have a problem if they are allocated with a table ID allocated for older deleted VRFs.
Workaround:
1. Reload the ingress Eng5 line card that is facing the CE.
or
2. If the customer does not want to reload the line card, a second workaround can be attempted, but it is not a reliable workaround and may not always be successful. Create a new VRF without removing any VRFs, which gets a new table ID, and apply the VRF configuration completely wherever the old VRF configuration is applied.
Further Problem Description: This problem cannot be cleared by using the clear cef linecard x or clear ip route vrf xxx 0.0.0.0 commands.
•
CSCsq91217

•
CSCsr11332
Symptoms: In rare situations, the show controller SONET port command might crash the RP.
Conditions: This symptom has been observed on a 4CHOC12/DS3-I-SCB= line card, but it can be seen on other similar channelized line cards. It may be reproducible by executing the show controller SONET port command on a nonexistent port like sonet 3/4 (that is, only sonet 0/0, 0/1, 0/2, and 0/3 are valid on a 4CHOC line card). When the problem can be seen, the CLI help indicates an incorrect unit number:
Router# show controller sonet 12/?<0-48> Controller unit numberIf the controller unit number is shown fine (for example, <0-3>), then the crash will not occur.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
