Cisco CiscoWorks Network Compliance Manager 1.8 Information Guide

This section contains information about the limitations and problems known to exist in this device driver 
release.

The VMware Distributed vSwitch driver depends 
on a newer Java library that is present in CWNCM 
version 1.6.3.

Other versions must have the latest vim25.jar file 
(available from VMware) copied to <system 
install 
directory>\server\ext\jboss\server\default\lib 
for this driver to be functional.

The driver support for Nexus 5k/1k 
[Nexus5000.rdp] and Nexus 7k [CiscoNexus.rdp] 
devices have been consolidated into a single 
driver package - CiscoNexus.rdp. The driver 
installer does not remove the existing 
Nexus5000.rdp file or reassign devices to use the 
new driver. 

The Nexus5000.rdp file resident in The Driver 
Discovery via CLI for Cisco Nexus fails 
install_directory/server/lib/drivers should be 
manually removed, and all affected devices 
should be rediscovered. CiscoWorks NCM will 
assign the consolidated driver upon correct 
discovery.

The driver support for Blade Network 
Technologies Rack Switch G8000 
[EXT_BNT_RackSwitch_G8000.rdp] and Rack 
Switch G8124 
[EXT_BNT_RackSwitch_G8124.rdp] have been 
consolidated into a single driver package - 
EXT_BNT_RackSwitch.rdp. The driver installer 
does not remove the existing 
EXT_BNT_RackSwitch_G8000.rdp and 
EXT_BNT_RackSwitch_G8124.rdp files or 
reassign devices to use the new driver. 

The files (EXT_BNT_RackSwitch_G8000.rdp & 
EXT_BNT_RackSwitch_G8124.rdp) resident in 
install_directory/server/lib/drivers should be 
manually removed, and all affected devices 
should be rediscovered. CiscoWorks NCM will 
assign the consolidated driver upon correct 
discovery.

Cisco Firewall Services Module (FWSM) series 
standalone or administration context devices: 
First discovery task fails after adding the device. 
However, the second discovery task will succeed.

Either re-run the task or assign the driver to the 
device.

The Device Driver Reference 
(Configuration_Guide.pdf) is obsolete and has
