Restrictions and Cautions


When configuring the Switch 4210G, be sure that you are aware of these restrictions and cautions:
1) VLAN ACLs cannot take effect on QinQ-enabled ports because of implementation limitations.
2) When the configuration of port isolation conflicts with the redirect action of QoS, the port isolation
configuration overrides. For example, assume ports g1/0/1 and g1/0/2 belong to a port isolation
group and the QoS policy applied on g1/0/1 contains a traffic behavior to redirect traffic received
on g1/0/1 to g1/0/2. When receiving traffic matching the QoS policy, port g1/0/1 will not redirect it
to port g1/0/2, because both ports are members of a port isolation group, which prevents them
from forwarding traffic to each other.
3) The broadcast/multicast/unknown unicast suppression threshold configured as a percentage of
the total bandwidth in port view is accurate only for 64-byte packets. This is because the chip
supports only broadcast suppression by PPS, and the system converts the percentage into PPS
per 64 bytes. Thus, you are recommended to configure storm suppression by PPS.
4) The virtual cable test (VCT) function will fail if the connected peer port works at 100 Mbps in
forced mode.
5) cannot assign ACLs with "neq" option due to chip limitations.
6) When the 3CXFP92 10G module of JDSU is looped back or is connected to another module, it
cannot go up.
7) The CFD protocol cannot surely interoperate with that of Cisco.

Software Upgrading
The device software can be upgraded through console port, TFTP, and FTP.

Remote Upgrading through CLI


You may upgrade the application and Boot ROM program of a device remotely through command line
interface (CLI). To this end, telnet to the device from a computer (at 10.10.110.1) running FTP server
first; and then get the application and Boot ROM program, switch.app and switch.btm for example,
from the FTP server as follows:
<Switch> ftp 10.10.110.1

Succeeded to update bootrom of Board 1.


<Switch> >boot-loader file switch.bin slot all main
This command will set the boot file of the specified board. Continue? [Y/N]:y
The specified file will be used as the main boot file at the next reboot on slot 1!
<Switch> display boot-loader
Slot 1
The current boot app is: flash:/switch.bin
The main boot app is: flash:/switch.bin
The backup boot app is: flash:/
<Switch> reboot

After getting the new application file, reboot the device to have the upgraded application take effect.

Note that if you do not have enough Flash space, upgrade the Boot ROM program first, and then FTP
the application to the device.

The following sections introduce some approaches to local upgrading.

Boot Menu
Upon power-on, the switch runs the Boot ROM program first. The following information will be
displayed on the terminal:

Using TFTP Through an Ethernet Interface


1) Introduction to TFTP
The Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) employs UDP to provide unreliable data transfer service.
2) TFTP upgrading procedure
