  • 1.  Strange characters in specific fields of syslog message send by a NS208

    Posted 03-26-2009 06:25

    A NS208 in 5.3.0r6.0 version is sending syslog messages that contain non-numeric characters in its receive and send fields. It occurs when the session volume becomes greater than 99,999 in transmission or reception.

    Did anyone know this behaviour ? Is this a known failure? Is this correct in a later version later? If yes, which one?

    Below are examples of those syslog message presenting the anomaly :

    Hi

     

    Its actually a known issue. We have some specific patches to upgrade to on 5.3 or you can try upgrade to 5.4r4 and above SOS (latest is 5.4r12).

     

    If you would like to get a specific patch for 5.3 ver, please open a JTAC case and request JTAC to look under ID 221351. Its actually recommened that you go to 5.4 though.
