Caveats for Version 1.0.0
These caveats apply to: Software version Sx300_FW-1.0.0.27.ros Date: April 27, 2010 Boot version Sx300_BOOT-1.0.0.4.rfb Date: April 8, 2010
The following problems are acknowledged: Problem: When the Advanced Test on Copper port is run without first running the Basic Test, the status is shown to be Unknown Test Result. (CQ 120604) Solution: Problem: Run the Basic Test before you run the Advanced Test. A MAC-based VLAN cannot co-exist with 802.1x. (CQ 122763)
Problem: When the status of the factory default management IP address (192.168.1.254 ) is changed from a Dynamic to Static, an error message displays. Solution: Change the management IP address to an IP address other than the factory default management IP address. (CQ 122633). Problem: A network policy cannot be added or changed on an existing LLDP MED port. For example, if the Network Policy ID 2 is assigned to the port, it can not be changed to any other network policy ID. (CQ 122689) Solution: port. The network policy must be removed and a new policy assigned to the
Problem: If you are using a language other than English and a new IP address is acquired by the switch, the language is reset to English after a reboot. (CQ 123172) Solution: Set the switch to the desired language after reboot is complete.
Problem: When downloading firmware by using TFTP or HTTP, the Processing Data window disappears before process is complete. (CQ 123251) Solution: Wait until the Status field on the page shows Copy finished.
Problem: When you right click the Web browser and refresh a page, the Getting Started page displays. (CQ 122635 and 123478) Solution: To refresh to the desired page, select the page again from the navigation bar. (Do not use the browser refresh feature.)
Problem: In the Menu CLI, when you attempt to select option 10 on the Reboot System menu, option 1 is falsely selected, and then 0 (Back) is falsely selected. (CQ 122050) Solution: Navigate through the menu to select (highlight) option 10 by using the arrow keys. Problem: The VCT (Virtual Cable Tester) tests cable lengths up to 100m. If the cable is longer than 100m, the results are not accurate. There is no workaround. (CQ 123044) Problem: If there is a space at the beginning and/or at the end of any string entered in any field, you cannot select that entry from a drop down menu. (CQ 123391 and CQ 123277) Solution: space. Do not create usernames or ACL names that begin and/or end with a
Problem: If you configure the egress shaping rate on uplink ports (per port or per egress queue) on switches other than those with 52 gigabit ports, the actual shaping granularity is in steps of 2 megabits per second. On switches with 52 gigabit ports, the actual shaping granularity in the uplink ports is in steps of 2.7 megabits per second. (CQ 123397) Problem: Deleting an IP interface when the switch is in Layer 3 mode and configured with multiple IP interfaces causes the System LED to blink until the next time the switch is rebooted. (CQ123506) Solution: Problem: Solution: None. SNTP broadcast is not synchronizing the time correctly. (CQ 123540) Provision a unicast SNTP server.
Problem: When using an IPv6 Global IP address with the SNMP tool, a SNMP Management Station must specify the IPv6 Global IP address for the SNMP tool to authenticate. (CQ 123541) Solution: None.

Problem: When in Layer 3 mode, the internal VLAN ID 4095 (Internal VLAN) is displayed after assigning an IP address to a port or a LAG interface. This does not affect on the functionality of the switch. (CQ 123542) Solution: None.
Problem: Some characters are unsupported on specific pages. The web-based interface does not support ampersand (&) or plus (+) characters on the User Account page. The web-based interface does not support the pound (#) character on any Access Control List Page. Solution: None.
Problem: Some of the web-based interface pages cannot be loaded correctly on Firefox prior to version 2.0.20. (CQ 122376) Solution: Install Firefox version 2.0.20 or later.
Problem: A date format change is not reflected when uploading a different version of the same language. For example, if you are using German with date format of day/month/year and you download a German language file with a different format for the date, such as year/month/day, the date is not displayed correctly. (CQ 122503) Solution: Log out and log back in to see the updated date format.
Problem: In a configuration using Classic STP (RSTP or MSTP) with multiple switches using the same priority, trying to force the election of the root bridge based upon the lower MAC address does not function correctly. Solution: Use a lower Bridge Priority to elect the Root bridge. This issue is fixed in Release 1.1. Problem: If there are unsaved changes to the configuration and you click Logout or press Reboot, changes that are not saved are lost and there is no warning to indicate that the unsaved changes will be lost. (CQ 123802) Solution: None.
