Known Software Issues and Limitations
Release WS.02.07
Applet (38198) The tab button does not allow the user to navigate from the DHCP Scope
Start IP to the End IP field.
Applet (38133) If invalid syntax is used to configure any of the Radio > Global Settings,
a generic "communication error" message is sent to the web management interface.
Applet (38532) Changing screens in the WLAN Setup > Assignment page may trigger a
message that warns that the user has un-applied changes, even when no changes have been
made.
Applet (37520) If an invalid value is entered into the Redundancy Group > Discovery Period,
that field will not auto-correct with a valid value.
Applet (38796) The user is allowed to delete both the running-config and startup-config,
resulting in a reset to factory defaults.
CLI (40764) The user is allowed to create an invalid configuration in which duplicate
SSIDs are configured.
Infrastructure (38600) Copying to the running configuration through the web
management interface is not allowed. The workaround is to conduct this copy from the
command line interface. Note that copying to the running configuration appends the running
configuration rather than overwriting it in its entirety.
Infrastructure (40054) Copying into the running-config or the startup-config with files
opened and edited in native Windows applications yields an error due to the placement of a
Ctrl M character into the file. In order for a text-edited configuration file to be recognized
and loaded by the module, it must not have the ^M (ctl-M) character in it. One workaround
would be to edit in a text editor, such as WinVi (http://www.winvi.de/en/
), that does not
automatically insert that character.
Security (32870) When a restricted access-list is in use, there must be an extended MAC
ACL rule used in conjunction with it to permit ARPs to get through. Please see the ProCurve
Support web site for a configuration example.
Security (32558) SYN attack detection and blocking triggers a cryptic log message,
"allowed forw creation rate exceeded”.
Security (36945) — Modifying a NAT configuration with an incomplete ACL entry
appropriately yields an error message, but that message is somewhat vague about its trigger
(the incomplete ACL syntax).
Security (34041) The user is able to remove ACLs and ACL rules when they are in use
by NAT.
Security (36658) Dynamic NAT allows you to create a deny rule, which is an explicit
(redundant) configuration of the default state.
