    Hi,

           I use 5406zl to core switch and I use "show log" for check status. I see

    " M 10/07/10 16:37:10 sys: 'Software exception at alloc_free.c:575 -- in 'tDevPollTx', task ID = 0xa9a6cc0' ".

    what is this?

     

    Thank you.

    Hi,

     

    A bug relevant to DHCP was corrected with a similar (not identical) message. What is the software version of your device ? (show version)

     

    In the K.14.65 :

    "Crash (PR_0000056868) — In some cases with DHCP snooping enabled globally and on a VLAN,
    the switch might reboot unexpectedly with a message similar to the following.
    Software exception at alloc_free.c:646 -- in 'tDevPollTx', task ID =
    0xa9a1300
    -> buf already freed by 0x0A96BC00, op=0x00000000"

     

    Bye.
