User’s Guide Updates

Configuring Dell PowerConnect

Title Description

Configuring an initial HTTPS password The example in the user guide is incomplete. Issuing the first command

drops the user to the 'config-crypto-cert' config mode. At this point, just

exiting back to config is not enough to allow https to get enabled. The

user must enter values for common-name and country before exiting.

This will allow https server to be enabled when issuing "ip https server" at

global config mode.

console(config)#

console(config)#conf

console(config)#crypto certificate 1 generate

console(config-crypto-cert)#common-name 10.127.255.231

console(config-crypto-cert)#country us

console(config-crypto-cert)#duration 364

console(config-crypto-cert)#location Austin

console(config-crypto-cert)#organization-unit Dell

console(config-crypto-cert)#state tx

console(config-crypto-cert)#exit

console(config)#ip https server

console(config)#end

console(config)#

Configuring Ports

Title Description

Port Configuration page, Admin Port Speed The description of the Admin Port Speed field on the Port Configuration

page incorrectly states that “For the PowerConnect M8024, the only

available speed is 10000 Mbps.” In reality, the PowerConnect M8024 also

supports port speeds of 1000 Mbps.

Port Configuration page, Admin Advertisement The description of the Admin Advertisement field on the Port Configuration

page states that the 10000 Full value indicates that the port is advertising

a 1000 Mbps speed, which is incorrect. The 10000 Full value indicates

that the port is advertising a 10000 Mbps speed.

Known Restrictions and Limitations

Layer 2

Description User Impact

When operating at 10/100/1000 MBPS mode, there may be cases where

the XOFF state prevents the generation of TX pause frames.

This affects XE ports operating in 1 Gigabit mode;

10 Gigabit operation is not affected. The inability to

pause the link partner may result in receiving

additional frames until the discard threshold is

reached and frames will be dropped.

The show statistics ethernet {<unit>/<port-type><port>|switchport}

command displays jumbo (oversize) packets as transmit errors.

None, the jumbo packets are properly transmitted.

Layer 3

There are no known issues.

and MAC based ACL.

The user can see the summary in the page

Switching > Network Security > Access Control

Table but not the rules of the access list. The rules

summary page does not exist.

Show copper-ports tdr

These commands appear in the console but are not

supported.

but are not supported:
