New Features and Functionality
This section highlights new features and functionality for release 9.7.0.5. For detailed documentation for the configuration as well as limitations of each of these features, see the CPT Configuration Guide.
CTC support for Inner Outer VLAN Cos Matching
The CPT system provides the ability to support packet classification based on inner VLAN CoS or inner VLAN for double tagged packets for ingress QoS functions in CTC mode.
Cisco Bug Search Tool
Use the Bug Search Tool (BST) to view the list of outstanding and resolved bugs in a release.
BST, the online successor to Bug Toolkit, is designed to improve the effectiveness in network risk management and device troubleshooting. The tool allows partners and customers to search for software bugs based on product, release, and keyword, and aggregates key data such as bug details, product, and version. The tool has provision to filter bugs based on credentials to provide external and internal bug views for the search input.
The BST is available at Bug Search. To search for a specific bug, go to https://tools.cisco.com/bugsearch/search For more information on BST, see Bug Search Help.
Export to Spreadsheet
The Bug ToolKit provides the following options to export bugs to a spreadsheet:
Click Export All to Spreadsheet link in the Search Results page under the Search Bugs tab. Specify file name and folder name to save the spreadsheet. All the bugs retrieved by the search will be exported.
Click Export All to Spreadsheet link in the My Notifications tab. Specify file name and folder name to save the spreadsheet. All the saved bugs in all the groups will be exported.
If you are unable to export the spreadsheet, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/cisco/web/support/index.html for more information or call Cisco TAC (1-800-553-2447).
