CR00006040 PIM 6 1 For PIM on IPv6, if the interface that was being used as the BSR candidate address

went down, the network occasionally did not re-elect a BSR and the RPs in a

timely manner. This could cause the router or switch to reboot.

This issue has been resolved.

CR00007273 Switch 1 If a user created a configuration file that contained port trunk settings before

VLAN port settings, then a loop occurred when the switch rebooted with this

configuration.

This issue has been resolved.

-----Y----

CR00013457 VLAN 1 When ports were added to a currently-disabled RSTP domain, the ports could

start to discard packets (because their STP state was set to Discarding).

This issue has been resolved. When ports are added to a disabled RSTP domain,

they remain in a Forwarding state.

-----Y----

CR00013492 OSPF 1 When route filters (made with the command add ip route filter) were used to

filter OSPF routes, it was possible for OSPF to constantly remove and re-create an

AS-External LSA. This could prevent OSPF sessions from establishing.

This issue has been resolved.

candidates had expired.

This issue has been resolved.

Y-Y-------

CR00010593 IPv6 2 The router or switch sometimes forwarded packets to directly connected hosts

whose corresponding IPv6 ND cache entry was still in INCOMPLETE state. This

caused it to send the packets to incorrect MAC addresses and egress ports.

This issue has been resolved.

Y-Y-------

CR00012407 STAR 2 When the STAR protocol was used for link-layer encryption, the channel setup

failed continuously on heavy traffic.

This issue has been resolved.

CR00012476 IGMP 2 If IGMP snooping was enabled but IGMP was not enabled, the snooper behaved

as if IGMP snooping fast leave had been enabled even when it had not been. This

meant that as soon as the snooper received a Leave message, the port left the

group.

This issue has been resolved. Note that fast leave is disabled by default.

Y-Y--Y----

CR00012657 STP 2 When STP was operating with a large number of VLANs in the same STP region,

the switch sometimes rebooted while processing topology change notifications

(TCNs).

This issue has been resolved.

-----Y----

CR00012741 Core, File,

Stack

2The command create config=filename set did not copy the configuration file

to all switches in the stack, but only saved the file onto the current switch.

This issue has been resolved.

-----Y----

CR00013081 Switch, STP 2 When STP was enabled on ports in a trunk group, the non-master ports did not

have the same state as the master port in the switch’s hardware STG table. This

could, on rare occasions, create a broadcast storm.

This issue has been resolved. All ports in a trunk group follow the master port in

the hardware STG table.

-----Y----

CR00013128 ATM 2 When connected to some types of DSLAMs, the router could reboot due to a

reception error on the SHDSL EOC channel.

This issue has been resolved.

This issue has been resolved.

CR00013390 WAN Load

Balancer

2It was possible in unusual circumstances for the router to run out of memory after

a WAN load balancer session was added. This could cause the router to reboot

CR00010345 Firewall 3 When the HTTP proxy URL filter had entries that allowed certain domains and

also had entries that denied certain keywords, the supposedly-allowed domains

were denied if they contained the denied keywords. The proxy allowed the page

/index.html from such domains, but no other pages.

This issue has been resolved. The proxy no longer checks allowed domains

against the keyword list.

CR00011710 Core 3 When the router or switch sent a RADIUS accounting STOP packet, the packet’s

Acct-Session-Time was always zero, no matter how long the session had been

active for.

This issue has been resolved.

Y-Y-------

CR00013060 IPv6 3 Previously, if IPv6 had a dynamic Neighbour Discovery cache entry for a particular

IPv6 address, it prevented users from adding a static entry for the same IPv6

address.

This issue has been resolved. Users can now overwrite dynamic Neighbour

Discovery cache entries with static entries.

Y-Y-------

CR00013117 IPv6, PIM,

PIMv6

3A router or switch running PIM6 occasionally rebooted in certain network

topologies when links were very busy. The circumstances that caused this crash

are very unusual, but the code has been made more robust to cope with them.

Y-Y-------

CR00013162 ISAKMP 3 When heartbeats fail for an ISAKMP SA, the router or switch (correctly) removes

the ISAKMP SA and any IPsec SAs that were created by the ISAKMP SA. It then

sends delete messages to notify the peer, so that the peer can also remove the

relevant IPsec SAs.

However, if heartbeats failed just after a re-negotiation, and only failed for the

new ISAKMP SA, then the router or switch did not send delete messages for any

IPsec SAs that were also removed. This could mean that encrypted traffic sent

from the peer was lost.

This issue has been resolved. If heartbeats fail, the router or switch now correctly

sends the peer device a delete message for any removed IPsec SAs.

Y-Y-------

CR00013220 ISAKMP 3 Previously, if an ISAKMP policy was configured with set isakmp policy=name

prenegotiate=true and the peer was unresponsive, then at start-up the router

or switch sent fewer ISAKMP message retransmissions than the configured

msgretrylimit value.

This issue has been resolved.

CR00013415 Firewall 3 When an RTSP media stream, using TCP as the transport protocol, was passing

through the firewall, then the session could stall if some packets were

retransmitted with different sequence numbers to the original transmission.

This issue has been resolved.

CR00013473

CR00013516

DVMRP 3 Values for some DVMRP settings (including ttlthreshold and metric) were not

saved in the configuration file or output resulting from the commands create

config and show config dynamic. If the router or switch rebooted, the values

were not applied.

This issue has been resolved.

Y-Y-------

CR00013525 Stack 3 Different versions of the management stacking feature are not compatible with

each other, which means that AT-9924Ts or x900-24XT series switches can only

be stacked with other AT-9924Ts or x900-24XT switches.

This software version includes checks to prevent incompatible software from

being stacked.

-----Y----

CR00013547 VLAN 3 When DHCP snooping was enabled on the router or switch, performing a walk

of the MIB variables in that router or switch could result in incorrect termination

of the walk. This was because certain SNMP packets were incorrectly interpreted

as DHCP packets.

This issue has been resolved.

-----Y----

CR00013588 ATM 3 At low SHDSL bitrates, the EOC channel exhibited many spurious CRC errors.

This issue has been resolved.

Y---------

CR00013672 ATM 3 An SNMP Walk of the ATM MIB would fail to complete properly, as it would not

advance through the channel list.

This issue has been resolved.

session key correctly.

CR00013757 Core 3 For AR750S-DP routers, the values of the fanAndPsPSUPresent MIB fields

4The console port’s autobaud mode was determined incorrectly during start-up.

CR00013683 File 4 Japanese users can now delete the router or switch’s preferred software release

and the current boot configuration file. For routers or switches that are

manufactured for non-Japanese markets, users must first stop the files from

being preferred, by setting new preferred files or by using the commands delete

install=pref or set config=none.

Y-Y--Y----

CR00013767 Core 4 In Japan, AT-8624PoE switches are named 8624PS. Previously, 8624PS switches

displayed AT-8624PoE as their board name in the output of the command show

system.

This issue has been resolved. For Japanese switches only, the board name is now

8624PS.
