Any ideas what causes:

%PM-SP-4-BAD_COOKIE: bad cookie magic was detected

The error message decoder states:

This message indicates that the port manager detected an invalid request. [char] is the invalid request.

But, no real answer on what to do about it.

IOS version is 12.2(33)SXH3a and didn't find any known bugs.

Hi all,

Is it possible to get more informations about this Bug? We had yesterday a client who experienced a similar issue with Prime Infrastructure on the network. Is it possible that the Campus Manager module would generate this logs in the new Prime Framework?

Thanks a lot
