Known Issues
• If you use the “backup to flash” option when backing up configuration files,
the filename must have the extension
*.tar.gz.
If not, restore fails with a
“failed to decompress” error. (PV-15283)
• 55xx devices echo command lines sent to them, so Adaptive CLI commands
display echoed characters in their Audit Trails. This is not an error and does
not mean the configuration failed. (PV-14796)
• Upgrading from switch to router firmware on an FCX device upgrades an L2
Switch with L3 firmware, so the IP commands/configuration changes and the
L2 configuration are ignored. The device needs to be reconfigured from the
console. (PV-14369)
• M8024-K does not support ethernet link discovery (PV-14853)
