■ Known Problems
Operating
Considerations
This section describes operating considerations that apply to Interface
Modules at this release.
System
■ You cannot stage a module in one chassis and then move that module
to another chassis, because port mapping is based on the module’s
hardware identifier.
■ The 10/100BASE-TX ports on the 3C16828 Fast Ethernet module may
not autonegotiate with a SUN Ultra 2 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet card. If
traffic is sent from the SUN during autonegotiation, then
autonegotiation completes successfully.
■ The Switch 4005 does not support Strict Source Routing or ICMP
Redirection.
Module NVdata
■ You cannot restore the nonvolatile data (NVdata) configuration from
one Switch 4005 interface module to another.
SNMP
■ To prevent timeouts of SNMP requests, 3Com recommends that you
increase the default timeout for the network management station.
■ SNMP response time may vary depending on the current network
load.
