Unfinished Webinterface of Cisco Catalyst 1000 Series Switches

[zaphod2024]

Hello,

I am using a switch of that series since several years. There have been some updates in the meantime. The most recent one is from that month.

But: the webinterface still remains unchanged in that unfinished state. See attached pic. 

Does no developer takes care of that? I update the switch always with .tar file (IOS and web UI).

Ohh, forgotten. Thanks for your hint.

    - If you refer to the top that is a bug similar to : https://bst.cloudapps.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCvo35537
      You could check if the workaround can work , it is not too important however ,

Hello Marce,

thanks a lot. Could you guide me to change that setting? Is it reachable through the WebGUI?

   - You can't change it ; as stated it's a bug ; look at the Workaround: in the bug report  ; I doubt this will work in this case
    Also if upgrades have been done , then clear the browser cache and or verify the problem with another browser (too),

Hello Marce,

thanks for your reply. Browserversion or -supplier or clearing cache does not change something.

Do you have information where to "Change "service timestamps log uptime" to "service timestamps log datetime"?

   - Those commands must be added in the running configuration of the switch as in :
              switch # conf t
                                         no  service timestamps log uptime   (corrected!)
                                         service timestamps log datetime
                               end 

              switch # write mem

Hello,

thanks for your help.

I have entered the commands successfully and have rebooted the switch after a "write mem". The commands have been accepted without messages.

Unfortunately there is no change at the web-UI.

Seems that the workaround is not applicable to my switch?

CISCO_SWITCH01#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
CISCO_SWITCH01(config)#no service timestamps log uptime
CISCO_SWITCH01(config)#service timestamps log datetime
CISCO_SWITCH01(config)#end
CISCO_SWITCH01#write mem
Building configuration...
[OK]
CISCO_SWITCH01#

  - What I expected a bit , as stated if using the latest software does not help , I would categorize it
     as cosmetic and  not too important , 

 M.

Yes, thanks. 

From Cisco I expect much more. For example because of that bug it is not possible to log off from the webUI in a correct way. You can only close the browser. That is a security risk.

Thanks for your help.

   - If you consider that an important business requirement then you must raise a TAC case , 
     and or contact psirt@cisco.com   (being the Product Security Incident Response Team)
                                                  And then hope that the highlighted stuff works too (smile!)

Hi,

I have sent that issue to the psirt. 2 years is too much for that. Closing browser window without closing the session is not what one should expect from cisco.
