The following details existing device issues that have been discovered with other releases. In most cases, a resolution is included to address the issue.

  • Huawei devices do not support FTP or Telnet/SSH access from the same account. FTP access is hardcoded in the driver. For FTP configuration to work an FTP login emcftp with password emctester must exist.

  • Some configuration commands may cause a premature connection failure and fail the push job when pushed to the NE-series routers. For example, the shutdown command for interfaces.

  • Some router configurations may show out-of-sync indications, when no visual differences are shown. This is due to random spaces introduced by the device after Terminal pulls.

  • Configuration pull and push:

    • Configuration pull and push is done using FTP for devices that support binary(.zip) configurations.

    • Configuration pull and push is done using Terminal for devices that support text (.cfg) configurations.

    • Configuration pull and push is done using FTP for devices that support both binary(.zip) and text(.cfg) configurations.

  • Serial number and physical hardware are not available using terminal.

  • Memory, file systetm information, and interfaces are not supported using SNMP.
