Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Cisco Bug Search Tool

Use the Bug Search Tool (BST) to view the list of outstanding and resolved bugs in a release.

BST, the online successor to Bug Toolkit, is designed to improve the effectiveness in network risk management and device troubleshooting. The tool allows partners and customers to search for software bugs based on product, release, and keyword, and aggregates key data such as bug details, product, and version. The tool has provision to filter bugs based on credentials to provide external and internal bug views for the search input.

Search Bugs in BST
Procedure
    Step 1   Go to https:/​/​tools.cisco.com/​bugsearch/​. You will be prompted to log into Cisco.com. After successful login, the Bug Toolkit page open.
    Step 2   Enter the bug ID in the Search For: field. To search for release 6.1.1.2 bugs, enter the following parameters in the page:
    1. Search For ― Enter NCS4k in the text box.
    2. Releases ― Enter 6.1.1.2.
    3. Show Bugs ― Select Affecting or Fixed in these Releases
    Step 3   Press Enter.

    • By default, the search results include bugs with all severity levels and statuses, and bugs that were modified during the life cycle of the bug. After you perform a search, you can filter your search results to meet your search requirements.

    • An initial set of 25 search results is shown in the bottom pane. Drag the scroll bar to display the next set of 25 results. Pagination of search results is not supported.
