Cisco Bug Search Tool

Use the Bug Search Tool (BST) to view the list of outstanding and resolved bugs in a release.

BST, the online successor to Bug Toolkit, is designed to improve the effectiveness in network risk management and device troubleshooting. The tool allows partners and customers to search for software bugs based on product, release, and keyword, and aggregates key data such as bug details, product, and version. The tool has provision to filter bugs based on credentials to provide external and internal bug views for the search input.

Search Bugs in BST

Procedure

Step 1

Go to https://bst.cloudapps.cisco.com/bugsearch. You will be prompted to log into Cisco.com. After successful login, the Bug Toolkit page open.

Step 2

Enter the bug ID in the Search For: field. To search for release bugs, enter the following parameters in the page:

  1. Search For ― Enter NCS4k in the text box.

  2. Releases ― Enter the release number.

  3. Show Bugs ― Select Affecting or Fixed in these Releases

Step 3

Press Enter.

  • By default, the search results include bugs with all severity levels and statuses, and bugs that were modified during the life cycle of the bug. After you perform a search, you can filter your search results to meet your search requirements.

  • An initial set of 25 search results is shown in the bottom pane. Drag the scroll bar to display the next set of 25 results. Pagination of search results is not supported.
