Known Limitations

The Table 4 lists the PR numbers and its description that are known limitations in the J-Web Application package Release 15.1X53-A3.

Table 4: Known Limitations

PR Number	Problem Description

777372	If a Virtual Chassis contains more than six members, the Support Information page (Maintain > Customer Support > Support information) might not load. This is a known software limitation.
604595	The J-Web interface does not support role-based access control; it supports only users in the super-user authorization class. Therefore, a user who is not in the superuser class, such as a user with view-only permission, is able to launch the J-Web interface and is allowed to configure everything, but the configurations fail on commit, and the switch displays access permission errors. This is a known software limitation.
1026308	If you uninstall the J-Web Platform package by using CLI, reinstalling the Application package will not restore J-Web. Workaround: Reinstall Junos OS software.
1006208	J-Web software does not compare for appropriateness of the Application package or restrict you from installing inappropriate Application package on top of a Platform or Application package. Workaround: Install the appropriate J-Web package.
915069	The J-Web interface does not display CLI generated certificates in the Certificate section in the Management Access Configuration page (Configure > System Properties > Management Access). Using J-Web interface you cannot create or edit certificates. Workaround: Use the CLI interface for accessing certificate related configurations.
400814	In the J-Web interface, you cannot commit some configuration changes in the Ports Configuration page or the VLAN Configuration page because of the following limitations for port-mirroring ports and port-mirroring VLANs: A port configured as the output port for an analyzer cannot be a member of any VLAN other than the default VLAN. A VLAN configured to receive analyzer output can be associated with only one interface. This is a known software limitation. Workaround: None.
425693	In the J-Web interface, the Ethernet Switching Monitor page (Monitor > Switching > Ethernet Switching) might not display monitoring details if the switch has more than 13,000 MAC entries. This is a known software limitation.
866976	When you try to commit your changes to the switch from your laptop by using the EZsetup procedure, the status of the commit operation is displayed as Success, even if the laptop is disconnected from the swtich. Workaround: Reconnect your laptop to the switch and commit the changes again.
