General problems -
802.1Q Prioritization problems -
Addressing ACL problems -
-
ACLs are properly configured and assigned to VLANs, but the switch is not using the ACLs to filter IP layer 3 packets -
The switch does not allow management access from a device on the same VLAN -
Error (Invalid input) when entering an IP address -
Apparent failure to log all "deny" matches -
The switch does not allow any routed access from a specific host, group of hosts, or subnet -
The switch is not performing routing functions on a VLAN -
Routing through a gateway on the switch fails
-
-
IGMP-related problems -
LACP-related problems -
Port-based access control (802.1X)-related problems -
-
The switch does not receive a response to RADIUS authentication requests -
The switch does not authenticate a client even though the RADIUS server is properly configured and providing a response to the authentication request -
During RADIUS-authenticated client sessions, access to a VLAN on the port used for the client sessions is lost -
The switch appears to be properly configured as a supplicant, but cannot gain access to the intended authenticator port on the switch to which it is connected -
The supplicant statistics listing shows multiple ports with the same authenticator MAC address -
The show port-access authenticator <port-list> command shows one or more ports remain open after they have been configured with control unauthorized -
RADIUS server fails to respond to a request for service, even though the server's IP address is correctly configured in the switch -
The authorized MAC address on a port that is configured for both 802.1X and port security either changes or is re-acquired after execution of aaa port-access authenticator <port-list> initialize -
A trunked port configured for 802.1X is blocked
-
-
QoS-related problems -
Radius-related problems -
MSTP and fast-uplink problems -
SSH-related problems -
-
Switch access refused to a client -
Executing IP SSH does not enable SSH on the switch -
Switch does not detect a client's public key that does appear in the switch's public key file (show ip client-public-key) -
An attempt to copy a client public-key file into the switch has failed and the switch lists one of the following messages -
Client ceases to respond ("hangs") during connection phase
-
-
TACACS-related problems -
-
Event Log -
All users are locked out of access to the switch -
No communication between the switch and the TACACS+ server application -
Access is denied even though the username/password pair is correct -
Unknown users allowed to login to the switch -
System allows fewer login attempts than specified in the switch configuration
