Cisco Cisco Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module (CGESM) for HP Release Notes

This section provides updates to the product documentation:

This text was updated in the “Using IEEE 802.1x Authentication with Guest VLAN section of the 
software configuration guide:

If the switch is trying to authorize an IEEE 802.1x-capable voice device and the AAA server is 
unavailable, the authorization attempt fails, but the detection of the EAPOL packet is saved in the 
EAPOL history. When the AAA server becomes available, the switch authorizes the voice device. 
However, the switch no longer allows other devices access to the guest VLAN. To prevent this situation, 
use one of these command sequences: 

Enter the dot1x guest-vlan supplicant global configuration command to allow access to the guest 
VLAN.

Enter the shutdown interface configuration command followed by the no shutdown interface 
configuration command to restart the port.

These are the documentation updates for the system modesties guide:

These system messages have been added.

Error Message DOT1X_SWITCH-5-ERR_ADDING_ADDRESS: Unable to add address [enet] on 
[chars]

The client MAC address could not be added to the MAC address table because the 

hardware memory is full or the address is a secure address on another port. [enet] is the supplicant 
MAC address, and [chars] is the interface. This message might appear if the IEEE 802.1x feature is 
enabled.

If the hardware memory is full, remove some of the dynamic MAC addresses. 

If the client address is on another port, manually remove it from that port.
