Known Issues
This known issues in this version of the switch software include:
● [CLI][ComboPort] The default of fiber port is disabled, it is different with EAS 200-24p.
● [Bandwidth Control] The Effective rate is wrong. It should be the closest smaller multiple of 64kbps granularity.
● [LBD/Ling Aggregation] The Loopback Detection cannot work on the LACP trunk port. When master port is linked down.
● [System/MBA] The device would reboot when a large amount of clients request to the MAC Authentication.
● [CLI][IPv6] "show ipif_ipv6_link_local_auto" fails when the IP address of IPv4 interface doesn't be set.
● [CLI][Ports] Difference of Port Status Results by "Show ports "command and "show tech_support" command.
● [ACL] Only 4 kinds of ACL profile can be created at the same time. And IP and Ethernet type profile have reserved.
● [ACL] IPv6 with source IP address and IPv6 without source IP address will be 2 type profile.
● [ACL] The ACL rules are grouped per type and the priority is Ethernet> IP> IPv6 with IP> IPv6 without IP> packet_content.
● For every type, the matched rule with the lowest profile_id / access_id will be selected.
● [Mirror] The egress mirrored packets is always tagged.
