Patch SB251-01 for Software Release 2.5.1

C613-10361-00 REV A

Features in SB251-01

Layer 2 filtering is now working correctly.

32 bit counters now only show 8 bit contents.

The IPM (Layer 3 Multicasting table) now updates correctly to add or delete

the ingress linecard to control blade ports, and the control blade to egress

linecard ports when updating forwarding.

The ENABLE SYSTEM SECURITY_MODE command was enabling the

system security mode, but after the switch was restarted the system security

mode was disabled again. Also, when NVS was re-initialised because, for

example a battery had been exhausted, the system could not make an SNMP

trap. These issues have been resolved.

When the DISABLE SWITCH PORT FLOW=PAUSE command was

executed on a port or ports, they would still appear to be enabled at a higher

level. This issue has been resolved.

DHCP RENEW request messages are now unicast (as defined in the RFC),

not broadcast.

VLAN tagged multicast packets were incorrectly being sent over untagged

VLAN interfaces. This issue has been resolved.

Some change actions, and the resending of prune messages were not

operating correctly. This issue has been resolved.

Pause flow control is now disabled by default on all ports. This improves

performance of the switch when it is congested.

When OSPF was enabled on startup, an OSPF interface would sometimes

stay in the DOWN state. This issue has been resolved.

The following parameters have been changed CREATE CLASSIFIER, SET

CLASSIFIER and SHOW CLASSIFIER commands:

• The MACTYPE parameter has been changed to

MACTYPE={L2UCAST|L2MCAST|L2BCAST|ANY}. This resolves

an error with internal hardware tables.

Patch SB251-01 For SwitchBlade 4000 Series Switches and AT-9800 Series Switches 3

Patch SB251-01 for Software Release 2.5.1

C613-10361-00 REV A

• The number of user-specified protocols in the PROTOCOL parameter

has been increased from three to seven.

• The minimum value of the IPXDADDRESS parameter has been

decreased from 10000000 to 00000001.

An issue which sometimes resulted in a broadcast storm within the internal

ports on the SwitchBlade, a reduction in bandwidth, and a loss of pinging

has been resolved.

An issue which caused pings to fail when a control card was inserted in the

left hand slot to act as a slave, has been resolved.

Support has been added to allow for multicasting to any number of

overlapping VLANs up to the maximum number of multicast forwarding

entries.

An issue with pings failing after network host routes disappeared from the

switch due to an IP hashing error has been resolved.

An issue with an interrupt occuring when waiting on the MDIO which

caused the MDIO to read or write incorrect information has been resolved.

Ping would sometimes not work correctly after a 48 line card was extracted,

and after a restart reboot. This issue has been resolved.
