Limitations and Restrictions - Cancel membership in the multicast group by using the no ip igmp join-group group-address interface configuration command on an SVI. - Disable IGMP snooping on the VLAN interface by using the no ip igmp snooping vlan vlan-id global configuration command. (CSCeh90425) Quality of Service (QoS) • Some switch queues are disabled if the buffer size or threshold level is set too low with the mls qos queue-set output global configuration command. The ratio of buffer size to threshold level should be greater than 10 to avoid disabling the queue. The workaround is to choose compatible buffer sizes and threshold levels. (CSCea76893) • When auto-QoS is enabled on the switch, priority queuing is not enabled. Instead, the switch uses shaped round robin (SRR) as the queuing mechanism. The auto-QoS feature is designed on each platform based on the feature set and hardware limitations, and the queuing mechanism supported on each platform might be different. There is no workaround. (CSCee22591) • A QoS service policy with a policy map containing more than 62 policers cannot be added to an interface by using the service-policy interface configuration command. The workaround is to use policy maps with 62 or fewer policers. (CSCsc59418) • If you configure a large number of input interface VLANs in a class map, a traceback message similar to this might appear: 01:01:32: %BIT-4-OUTOFRANGE: bit 1321 is not in the expected range of 0 to 1024 There is no impact to switch functionality. There is no workaround. (CSCtg32101) SPAN and RSPAN • Egress SPAN routed packets (both unicast and multicast) show the incorrect source MAC address. For remote SPAN packets, the source MAC address should be the MAC address of the egress VLAN, but instead the packet shows the MAC address of the RSPAN VLAN. For local SPAN packets with native encapsulation on the destination port, the packet shows the MAC address of VLAN 1. This problem does not appear with local SPAN when the encapsulation replicate option is used. This limitation does not apply to bridged packets. The workaround is to use the encapsulate replicate keywords in the monitor session global configuration command. Otherwise, there is no workaround. This is a hardware limitation. (CSCdy81521) • During periods of very high traffic when two RSPAN source sessions are configured, the VLAN ID of packets in one RSPAN session might overwrite the VLAN ID of the other RSPAN session. If this occurs, packets intended for one RSPAN VLAN are incorrectly sent to the other RSPAN VLAN. This problem does not affect RSPAN destination sessions. The workaround is to configure only one RSPAN source session. This is a hardware limitation. (CSCea72326) • Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP), and Port Aggregation Protocol (PAgP) packets received from a SPAN source are not sent to the destination interfaces of a local SPAN session. The workaround is to use the monitor session session_number destination {interface interface-id encapsulation replicate} global configuration command for local SPAN.

Release Notes for the Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 for HP, Cisco IOS Release 12.2(55)SE and Later
OL-22861-04
Limitations and Restrictions
Cancel membership in the multicast group by using the
no ip igmp join-group
group-address
interface configuration command on an SVI.
Disable IGMP snooping on the VLAN interface by using the
no ip igmp snooping vlan
vlan-id
global configuration command. (CSCeh90425)
Quality of Service (QoS)
Some switch queues are disabled if the buffer size or threshold level is set too low with the
mls qos
queue-set output
global configuration command. The ratio of buffer size to threshold level should
be greater than 10 to avoid disabling the queue. The workaround is to choose compatible buffer sizes
and threshold levels. (CSCea76893)
When auto-QoS is enabled on the switch, priority queuing is not enabled. Instead, the switch uses
shaped round robin (SRR) as the queuing mechanism. The auto-QoS feature is designed on each
platform based on the feature set and hardware limitations, and the queuing mechanism supported
on each platform might be different. There is no workaround. (CSCee22591)
A QoS service policy with a policy map containing more than 62 policers cannot be added to an
interface by using the
service-policy
interface configuration command.
The workaround is to use policy maps with 62 or fewer policers. (CSCsc59418)
If you configure a large number of input interface VLANs in a class map, a traceback message
similar to this might appear:
01:01:32: %BIT-4-OUTOFRANGE: bit 1321 is not in the expected range of 0 to 1024
There is no
impact to switch functionality.
There is no workaround. (CSCtg32101)
SPAN and RSPAN
Egress SPAN routed packets (both unicast and multicast) show the incorrect source MAC address.
For remote SPAN packets, the source MAC address should be the MAC address of the egress VLAN,
but instead the packet shows the MAC address of the RSPAN VLAN. For local SPAN packets with
native encapsulation on the destination port, the packet shows the MAC address of VLAN 1. This
problem does not appear with local SPAN when the
encapsulation replicate
option is used. This
limitation does not apply to bridged packets. The workaround is to use the
encapsulate replicate
keywords in the
monitor session
global configuration command. Otherwise, there is no
workaround. This is a hardware limitation. (CSCdy81521)
During periods of very high traffic when two RSPAN source sessions are configured, the VLAN ID
of packets in one RSPAN session might overwrite the VLAN ID of the other RSPAN session. If this
occurs, packets intended for one RSPAN VLAN are incorrectly sent to the other RSPAN VLAN.
This problem does not affect RSPAN destination sessions. The workaround is to configure only one
RSPAN source session. This is a hardware limitation. (CSCea72326)
Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP), and Port Aggregation Protocol
(PAgP) packets received from a SPAN source are not sent to the destination interfaces of a local
SPAN session. The workaround is to use the
monitor session
session_number
destination
{
interface
interface-id
encapsulation replicate
}
global configuration command for local SPAN.
