Known Issues for Cisco NAC Appliance
This section describes known issues when integrating Cisco NAC Appliance:
 
Known Issue with Mass DHCP Address Deletion
An issue exists in release 4.5(1) where a Clean Access Server configured to be a DHCP server can 
become unmanageable if the administrator attempts to delete more than 800 DHCP addresses from the 
appliance using the Clean Access Manager web console. If you have more than 800 DHCP addresses, 
Cisco recommends deleting addresses in smaller blocks of no more than 800 addresses at a time. 
In addition to ensuring you do not delete more than 800 DHCP addresses at a time, there are two methods 
to work around this potential issue.
Workaround 1
The DHCP IP delete can be done manually by connecting to the CLI and executing the following 
commands:
service perfigo stop
rm -f /var/state/dhcp/dhcpd.leases
touch /var/state/dhcp/dhcpd.leases
service perfigo start
If on an HA system, Cisco strongly recommends taking the CASs offline and performing the commands 
on both machines simultaneously, taking particular care to issue the service perfigo start on the two 
appliances at roughly the same time.
