This section highlights resolved caveats for Release 7.0.x. 

When a node is upgraded from 4.14 release to 7.05 release, the Back Plane (BP) LAN connection goes 
to down state. If slot 7 has the active TCC on the 4.14 release and we try to activate to 7.05 release, there 
is a high probability that the BP LAN stays in down state. 

The workaround is to make TCC in slot 11 active, before the activation to 7.05 release.

The problem is solved by protecting the critical area of the LAN port during the activation process. This 
issue is resolved in release 7.0.7.

If the upgrade from release 4.14 to 7.05 causes the Back Plane LAN to go down, the only way 
to bring it back up is to:
1. Reset the active TCC
2. Issue the vxWork command to re-enable the BP LAN

The Inhibit FE loopback parameter for the mentioned cards should be set to true. (The check box should 
be checked.) Before you test this, a) Please delete the database. (FlmDeleteDb) b) And reboot the node. 
(Reboot)

You can check the parameter as mentioned below.
