Cisco IOS Software Packaging

The Enterprise Services image supports all Cisco Catalyst 4500E Series software features based on Cisco IOS Software, including enhanced routing.

The IP Base image supports Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) for Routed Access, Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) "limited" Stub Routing, Nonstop Forwarding/Stateful Switchover (NSF/SSO), and RIPv1/v2. The IP Base image does not support enhanced routing features such as BGP, Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS), Full OSPF, Full Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) & Virtual Routing Forwarding (VRF-lite).

The LAN Base image complements the existing IP Base and Enterprise Services images. It is focused on customer access and Layer 2 requirements and therefore many of the IP Base features are not required. The IP upgrade image is available if at a later date you require some of those features

Starting with Cisco IOS Release XE 3.5.0E, OSPF Routed Access in IP Base support rose to 1000 routes.

Cisco XE Release Strategy

Customers with Catalyst 4500 Series Switches who need the latest hardware and software features should migrate to Cisco IOS Release XE 3.6.0E.

IOS XE 3.2.xSG is an active maintenance train that supports Sup7E only. IOS XE 3.4.xSG is a maintenance train supporting Sup7E and Sup7L-E. IOS XE 3.6.xSG is a maintenance train supporting Sup7E, Sup7L-E and Sup8-E. IOS XE 3.6.xE, 3.4.xSG, and 3.2.xSG are extended maintenance (EM) releases. IOS XE 3.5.xE and 3.3.0SG are standard releases (SM).

Figure 1 displays the release strategy.

Feature Name
Description





Use this URL for the Cisco IOS XE Release 3E Documentation Roadmap

Use this URL for the Cisco IOS Release 15E Documentation Roadmap

Provides quick and easy access to all relevant documentation for specific platforms. Look for Quick Links to Platform Documentation on the respective platform documentation pages.

 

Auto Conf

Determines the level of network access provided to an endpoint based on the type of the endpoint device. This feature also permits hardbinding between the end device and the interface. Autoconfig falls under the umbrella of Smart Operations solution.

Auto Security

Provides a single line CLI, to enable base line security features (Port Security, DHCP snooping, DAI).

Banner Page and Inactivity timeout for HTTP/S connections

Banner Page and Inactivity timeout for HTTP/S connections—Allows you to create a banner page and set an inactivity timeout for HTTP or HTTP Secure (HTTPS) connections. The banner page allows you to logon to the server when the session is invalid or expired.

Bidirectional SXP Support

Enhances the functionality of Cisco TrustSec with SXP version 4 by adding support for Security Group Tag (SGT) Exchange Protocol (SXP) bindings that can be propagated in both directions between a speaker and a listener over a single connection.

DHCP Gleaning

This is a read--only DHCP functionality that allows components to register and glean DHCP packets.

Easy VSS

Enables you to configure VSS with a single command on the active switch and no action on the VSS standby switch.

With IOS XE 3.6.0E, Easy VSS is supported only on IP Base (Sup7E and Sup8E) and Enterprise Services (Sup7LEand Sup8E).

EVC-Lite     

Involves the definition of a Layer 2 bridging architecture that supports Ethernet services. The switch supports a lite version of the EVC feature on Supervisor Engine 7L-E.  

FIPS/CC Compliance for NMSP

The NMSP Strong Cipher enhancement enables strong ciphers for new NMSP connections. The existing NMSP connections will use the default cipher

FQDN ACL

Helps to resolve the destination domain name to an IP address, which is provided to the client as a part of the domain name system (DNS) response.

Gateway Load Balancing Protocol

Protects data traffic from a failed router or circuit while allowing packet load sharing between a group of redundant routers.

HSRP: Global IPv6 Address

Allows users to configure multiple non-link local addresses as virtual addresses. The Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) ensures host-to-router resilience and failover, in case the path between a host and the first-hop router fails, or the first-hop router itself fails.

HTTP Gleaning

Allows the device-sensor to extract the HTTP packet Type-Length-Value (TLV) to derive useful information about the end device type.

Interface Templates

Provides a mechanism to configure multiple commands at the same time and associate it with a target such as an interface. An interface template is a container of configurations or policies that can be applied to specific ports

IPv6 PBR

Allows you to manually configure how the received packets should be routed. PBR allows you to identify packets by using several attributes and to specify the next hop or the output interface to which the packet should be sent.

Note With IOS XE Release 3.6.0E and IOS 15.2(2)E, IPv6 PBR is not supported on Supervisor Engine 8-E.

IPv6 Static Routing: Support for Tracking Objects

Allows an IPv6 Static Route to be associated with a tracked-object.

IPv6 Support for SGT/SGACL

Introduces dynamic learning of IP-SGT mappings for IPv6 addresses.

In-Service Software Upgrade8

Allows Cisco software to be upgraded or downgraded, at a router level.

MediaTrace 1.0

Provides the capability to diagnose Media Stream on top of various instrumentations in Cisco routers/switches and endpoints. Also addresses the MediaNet Video monitoring requirement to discover the signaling path and provides end-to-end diagnostics along the media stream routes.

Object Tracking: IPv6 Route Tracking

Expands the Enhanced Object Tracking (EOT) functionality to allow the tracking of IP version 6 (IPv6) routes.

Open Plug-N-Play Agent

Switch based agent support for zero touch automated device installation solution called NG-PNP.

OSPFv3 Authentication Trailer

Provides a mechanism to authenticate Open Shortest Path First version 3 (OSPFv3) protocol packets as an alternative to existing OSPFv3 IPsec authentication.

Policy Based Routing: Recursive Next Hop

Enhances route maps to enable configuration of a recursive next-hop IP address that is used by policy-based routing (PBR).

Secure CDP

Allows users to select the type, length, value (TLV) fields that are sent on a particular interface to filter information sent through Cisco Discovery Protocol packets.

Security Group ACL at Interface Level

Controls and manages the Cisco TrustSec access control on a network device based on an attribute-based access control list. When a security group access control list (SGACL) is enabled globally, the SGACL is enabled on all interfaces in the network by default; use Security Group ACL at Interface Level feature to disable the SGACL on a Layer 3 interface.

SMI Catalyst 4K Client

Enables a Catalyst 4k standalone switch acting as Smart Install Client.

Note SMI Proxy is not supported.

TrustSec Critical Authentication

Ensures that the Network Device Admission Control (NDAC)-authenticated 802.1X links between Cisco TrustSec devices are in open state even when the Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) server is not reachable.

VRRPv3: Object Tracking Integration

Allows you to track the behavior of an object and receive notifications of changes. This feature explains how object tracking, in particular the tracking of IPv6 objects, is integrated into VRRP version 3 (VRRPv3) and describes how to track an IPv6 object using a VRRPv3 group.

VRRPv3 Protocol Support

Enables a group of routers to form a single virtual router to provide redundancy. This feature also provides the capability to support IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

VSS Support on Supervisor Engine 8-E

IOS XE 3.6.0E and Enterprise Services enables VSS support on Supervisor Engine 8-E with complete feature parity with Supervisor Engine 7-E.

Web Authentication Redirection to Original URL

Enables networks to redirect guest users to the URL they had originally requested. This feature is enabled by default and requires no configuration.

8.Beginning with Release IOS XE 3.6.0E, support extended to Supervisor Engine 8-E.

New and Modified IOS Software Features Supported in Cisco IOS XE 3.5.0E

The following new and modified software features function as a unified agent and adds functionality to enhance the current solutions.

IPv6 Static Routing: Support for Tracking Objects—Allows an IPv6 Static Route to be associated with a tracked-object.

Object Tracking: IPv6 Route Tracking—Expands the Enhanced Object Tracking (EOT) functionality to allow the tracking of IP version 6 (IPv6) routes.

Upgrading the System Software

  • Before upgrading to Cisco IOS XE Release 3.6.6E, you need to upgrade the Prime Infrastructure software to Release 3.1.4 with Device Pack(DP) 6.

For details on how to upgrade ROMMON, refer to: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/catalyst4500/release/note/OL_30306-01.html

  • If you are upgrading to Cisco IOS XE 3.6.0E and using Supervisor Engine 7-E or 7L-E, you must use ROMMON version 15.0(1r)SG10 or a higher version (if available).
note.gif

Noteblank.gif If dual supervisor engines are present, first upgrade your software to Cisco IOS XE 3.2.0SG or higher, then upgrade your ROMMON to IOS Version 15.0(1r)SG7 to avoid an uplinks issue (CSCtj54375).

note.gif

Noteblank.gif When you upgrade to Cisco IOS XE Release 3.6.5E, SSH access is lost, because it cannot use the CISCO_IDEVID_SUDI_LEGACY RSA server key. Before upgrade, generate the server key using the crypto key generate rsa command in global configuration mode. To verify whether the RSA server key is available on your device, run the show crypto key command.

  • If you are upgrading to Cisco IOS XE Version 3.5.0E and plan to use VSS, you must upgrade your ROMMON to version 15.0(1r)SG10. Otherwise, you must upgrade your ROMMON to at least IOS Version 15.0(1r)SG2.

Manual Field Programmable Gate Array Upgrades

If you have installed WS-X4748-UPOE in the chassis, note the following:

With Cisco IOS XE Release 3.6.xE, after an ISSU upgrade, you may have to manually upgrade the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) for WS-X4748-UPOE+E line cards that have version ID (VID) 03 or later versions. (To check the VID, enter the show inventory command in privileged EXEC mode). 

The required FPGA upgrades are not triggered automatically after an ISSU upgrade. This may result in an unexpected FPGA upgrade of all applicable linecards if a linecard is inserted online (OIR), after ISSU upgrade. The solution to this problem is to manually perform an FPGA upgrade during a maintenance window. 

Follow these steps for all WS-X4748-UPOE+E linecards in the chassis:

Switch(config)# service internal

Switch(config)# end

Switch# hw-module module-number upgrade-fpga-all

Upgrading ROMMON Image for Supervisor Engine 8-E

For IOS XE Release 3.6.0E, the ROMMON image must be upgraded to use the 3.6.0XE image (15.1(1r)SG4). The IOS XE Bundle format for Supervisor Engine 8-E has changed, necessitating a new ROMMON image.

The following [error] messages might be observed if IOS XE 3.6.0XE images are booted with older ROMMON images:

rommon 1 > boot bootflash:cat4500es8-universalk9.SPA.03.06.00.E.152-2.E.bin

Identifying an +E Chassis and ROMMON

When supervisor engine 1 (sup1) is in ROMMON and supervisor engine 2 (sup2) is in IOS, only sup2 can read the idprom contents of chassis’ idprom. Chassis type is displayed as “+E” in the output of the show version command. Conversely, sup1 can only display the chassis type as “E.”

When both sup1 and sup2 are in ROMMON, both engines can read the chassis’ idprom. Chassis type is displayed correctly as “+E” in the output of the show version command.

When both sup1 and sup2 are in IOS, both engines can read the chassis’ idprom. Chassis type is displayed correctly as “+E” in the output of the show version command.

Limitations and Restrictions

  • If WLAN applied client policy is invalid, the client is excluded with the exclusion reason being 'Client QoS Policy failure'.
  • The show exception files all command lists only crashinfo files from the active supervisor engine. You must issue the dir slavecrashinfo: and dir slvecrashinfo-dc: commands to obtain lists of crashinfo files from the standby supervisor engine.
  • Performing an ISSU from a prior release to IOS XE 3.6.0E is unsupported.
  • We recommend that you configure the access-session interface-template sticky timer timer-value command at the global or interface configuration mode, and not within the template.
  • The WS-X4712-SFP+E module is not supported in the WS-C4507R-E or WS-C4510R-E chassis and does not boot. This module is supported in the WS-C4503-E, WS-C4506-E, WS-C4507R+E, and WS-C4510R+E chassis.
  • More than 16K QoS policies can be configured in software. Only the first 16K are installed in hardware.
  • Adjacency learning (through ARP response frames) is restricted to roughly 1000 new adjacencies per second, depending on CPU utilization. This should only impact large networks on the first bootup. After adjacencies are learned they are installed in hardware.
  • Multicast fastdrop entries are not created when RPF failure occurs with IPv6 multicast traffic. In a topology where reverse path check failure occurs with IPv6 multicast, this may cause high CPU utilization on the switch.
  • The SNMP ceImageFeature object returns a similar feature list for all the three license levels (LAN Base, IP Base, and EntServices). Although the activated feature set for a universal image varies based on the installed feature license, the value displayed by this object is fixed and is not based on the feature license level.
  • Standard TFTP implementation limits the maximum size of a file that can be transferred to 32 MB. If ROMMON is used to boot an IOS image that is larger than 32 MB, the TFTP transfer fails at the 65,xxx datagram.

TFTP numbers its datagrams with a 16 bit field, resulting in a maximum of 65,536 datagrams. Because each TFTP datagram is 512 bytes long, the maximum transferable file is 65536 x 512 = 32 MB. If both the TFTP client (ROMMON) and the TFTP server support block number wraparound, no size limitation exists.

Cisco has modified the TFTP client to support block number wraparound. So, if you encounter a transfer failure, use a TFTP server that supports TFTP block number wraparound. Because most implementations of TFTP support block number wraparound, updating the TFTP daemon should fix the issue.

  • A XML-PI specification file entry does not return the desired CLI output.

The outputs of certain commands, such as show ip route and show access-lists, contain non-deterministic text. While the output is easily understood, the output text does not contain strings that are consistently output. A general purpose specification file entry is unable to parse all possible output.

Workaround (1):

While a general purpose specification file entry may not be possible, a specification file entry might be created that returns the desired text by searching for text that is guaranteed to be in the output. If a string is guaranteed to be in the output, it can be used for parsing.

For example, the output of the show ip access-lists SecWiz_Gi3_17_out_ip command is this:

Extended IP access list SecWiz_Gi3_17_out_ip
10 deny ip 76.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 host 65.65.66.67
20 deny ip 76.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 host 44.45.46.47
30 permit ip 76.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 host 55.56.57.57
 

The first line is easily parsed because access list is guaranteed to be in the output:

<Property name="access list" alias="Name" distance="1.0" length="-1" type="String" />
 

The remaining lines all contain the term host. As a result, the specification file may report the desired values by specifying that string. For example, this line

<Property name="host" alias="rule" distance="s.1" length="1" type="String" />
 

will produce the following for the first and second rules

<rule>
deny
</rule>
 

and the following for the third statement

<rule>
permit
<rule>
 

Workaround (2):

Request the output of the show running-config command using NETCONF and parse that output for the desired strings. This is useful when the desired lines contain nothing in common. For example, the rules in this access list do not contain a common string and the order (three permits, then a deny, then another permit), prevent the spec file entry from using permit as a search string, as in the following example:

Extended MAC access list MACCOY
permit 0000.0000.ffef ffff.ffff.0000 0000.00af.bcef ffff.ff00.0000 appletalk
permit any host 65de.edfe.fefe xns-idp
permit any any protocol-family rarp-non-ipv4
deny host 005e.1e5d.9f7d host 3399.e3e1.ff2c dec-spanning
permit any any
 

The XML output of show running-config command includes the following, which can then be parsed programmatically, as desired:

<mac><access-list><extended><ACLName>MACCOY</ACLName></extended></access-list></mac>
<X-Interface> permit 0000.0000.ffef ffff.ffff.0000 0000.00af.bcef ffff.ff00.0000 appletalk</X-Interface>
<X-Interface> permit any host 65de.edfe.fefe xns-idp</X-Interface>
<X-Interface> permit any any protocol-family rarp-non-ipv4</X-Interface>
<X-Interface> deny host 005e.1e5d.9f7d host 3399.e3e1.ff2c dec-spanning</X-Interface>
<X-Interface> permit any any</X-Interface>

  • When attaching a existing policy-map (that is already applied to a control-port) to another front-panel port, the following message displays:
The policymap <policy-map name> is already attached to control-plane and cannot be shared with other targets.
 

Workaround: Define a policy-map with a different name and then reattach. CSCti26172

  • If the number of unique FNF monitors attached to target exceeds 2048 (one per target), a switch responds slowly:

Workarounds:

–blank.gif Decrease the number of monitors.

–blank.gif Attach the same monitor to multiple targets. CSCti43798

  • ciscoFlashPartitionFileCount object returns an incorrect file count for bootflash:, usb0:, slot0:, slaveslot0:, slavebootflash:, and slaveusb0:.

Workaround: Use the dir device command (for example, dir bootflash:) to obtain the correct file count. CSCti74130

  • If multicast is configured and you make changes to the configuration, Traceback and CPUHOG messages are displayed if the following conditions exist:

–blank.gif At least 10K groups and roughly 20K mroutes exist.

–blank.gif IGMP joins with source traffic transit to all the multicast groups.

This is caused by the large number of updates generating SPI messages that must be processed by the CPU to ensure that the platform is updated with the changes in all the entries.

Workaround: None. CSCti20312

  • With traffic running, entering clear ip mroute * with larger number of mroutes and over 6 OIFs will cause Malloc Fail messages to display.

You cannot clear a large number of mroutes at one time when traffic is still running.

Workaround: Do not clear all mroutes at once.

CSCtn06753

  • Although you can configure subsecond PIM query intervals on Catalyst 4500 platforms, such an action represents a compromise between convergence (reaction time) and a number of other factors (number of mroutes, base line of CPU utilization, CPU speed, processing overhead per 1 m-route, etc.). You must account for those factors when configuring subsecond PIM timers. We recommend that you set the PIM query interval to a minimum of 2 seconds. By adjusting the available parameters, you can achieve flawless operation; that is, a top number of multicast routes per given convergence time on a specific setup.
  • Energywise WOL is not “waking up” a PC in hibernate or standby mode.

Workaround: None. CSCtr51014

  • The ROMMON version number column in the output of show module command is truncated.

Workaround: Use the show version command. CSCtr30294

  • IP SLA session creation fails randomly for various 4-tuples.

Workaround: Select an alternate destination or source port. CSCty05405

  • The system cannot scale to greater than 512 SIP flows with MSP and metadata enabled.

Workaround: None. CSCty79236

  • On the following linecards running IOS XE Release 3.2.3:

–blank.gif 4 Sup 7-E 10GE (SFP+), 1000BaseX (SFP) WS-X45-SUP7-E (CAT1434L0G4)

the following restrictions apply:

–blank.gif Sub-interfaces are not supported on 1 Gigabit and Ten-Gigabit interfaces.

–blank.gif Port-channel members do not support multiple classification criteria for a QoS policy.

–blank.gif CEF is disabled automatically when uRFP is enabled and TCAM is fully utilized.

  • When either the RADIUS-server test feature is enabled or RADIUS-server dead-criteria is configured, and either RADIUS-server deadtime is set to 0 or not configured, the RADIUS-server status is not properly relayed to AAA.

Workaround: Configure both dead-criteria and deadtime.

  • If you use the quick option in the issu changeversion command, the following might occur:

–blank.gif Links flap for various Layer 3 protocols.

–blank.gif A traffic loss of several seconds is observed during the upgrade process.

Workaround: Do not use the quick option with the issu changeversion command. CSCto51562

  • While configuring an IPv6 access-list, if you specify hardware statistics as the first statement in v6 access-list mode (i.e. before issuing any other v6 ACE statement), it will not take effect. Similarly, your hardware statistics configuration will be missing from the output of the show running command.

You will not experience this behavior with IPv4 access lists.

Workaround: During IPv6 access-list configuration, configure at least one IPv6 ACE before the "hardware statistics" statement. CSCuc53234

  • Routed packets that are fragmented are not policed if the egress interface is on the VSS Standby switch. However, if the egress interface is on the VSS Active switch, these packets are policed.

This applies to QoS policing only. QoS marking, shaping and sharing behave as expected.

Workaround: None. CSCub14402

  • When an IPv6 FHS policy is applied on a VLAN and an EtherChannel port is part of that VLAN, packets received by EtherChannel (from neighbors) are not bridged across the local switch.

Workaround: Apply FHS policies on a non EtherChannel port rather than a VLAN. CSCua53148

  • During VSS conversion, the switch intended as the Standby device may require up to 9 minutes to reach an SSO state. The boot up time depends on the configuration and on the number of line cards in the system.

Workaround: None. CSCua87538

  • Dual connectors (like, an SFP+ transceiver inserted into a CVR-X2-SFP10G module) on the WS-X4606-X2-E line card are not supported as a VSL.

Workaround: Use any X2-pluggable module on its own in the WS-X4606-X2-E line card. CSCuc70321

  • Memory allocation failures can occur if more than 16K IPv6 multicast snooping entries are present.

Workaround: None. CSCuc77376

  • The show interface capabilities command output does not show the correct linecard model.

Workaround: Observe the show module command output. CSCua79513

  • Beginning with IOS Release XE 3.5.0E, error messages that occur when a QoS policy is applied will no longer appear directly on the console when no logging console is configured. They will appear only when a logging method is active (e.g., logging buffered, logging console, …).

Workaround: None. CSCuf86375

  • Setting a cos value based on QoS group triggers the following error message in a VSS system
set action fail = 9
 

Workaround: None. QoS groups are not supported in VSS. CSCuc84739

  • Auto negotiation cannot be disabled on the Fa1 port. It must be set to auto/auto, or fixed speed with duplex auto.
  • The following messages are seen during boot up after POST check.

  • When a logging discriminator is configured and applied to a device, memory leak is seen under heavy syslog or debug output. The rate of the leak is dependent on the quantity of logs produced. In extreme cases, the device may crash. As a workaround, disable the logging discriminator on the device (CSCur45606, CSCur28336).
