Release Considerations

The following table lists the latest compatible releases for the products shown:

Product Release Table

Use the following instructions to load the MDP patch:

1) Log on to the MDP server.

2) Download (copy or ftp) the MDP patch ﬁle (P096_01.tar) to the MDP

server.

3) Stop any MDP processing by typing:

/iws/mdp/mdpadm shutdown

4) As root user, extract the ﬁx from the tar ﬁle:

tar -xvfp P096_01.tar

The new executables will be propagated to the correct directories.

5) Restart MDP processing by typing:

/iws/mdp/mdpadm restart

The MDP BDF output formats have changed in the MDP R9.6 release. See

the Vector Data Collection System User Guide (NTP-241-9501-320) for

details.

Magellan Vector 2.0 Release Notes, Issue 1.9.1

The Vector Release 2.0.X switch does not support ARP Server functionality.

In cases where customers are running ARPSERVER on Vector Release 1.1,

they need to migrate their ARPSERVER conﬁguration onto a host before or

during the upgrade to a Vector 2.0.X network.

Only one ESI module per switch is supported in this release.

The Partial Packet Policing function of the Enhanced Trafﬁc Management

Feature requires the revision J fabric (PEC NTET51AD).

To support a mixed i960CF/HA SCP conﬁguration, you must upgrade the

Vector Switching System (VSS) Software to at least Vector Release 2.0.2. In

the mixed i960CF/HA SCP conﬁguration, each fabric pair must be

conﬁgured either with two i960CF SCPs or two i960HA SCPs. As shown in

following ﬁgure, the i960CF SCP cannot coexist on the same fabric pair as

the i960HA SCP.

Switch conﬁguration with both i960CF and i960HA processors

The “conﬁguration VCC modify” command is removed in Vector Release

2.0.4 and higher. In order to modify an UPC contract, you must delete the PVC

or PVP and then reprovision the PVC or the PVP with the new UPC contract.

Hot-Swapping (plugging IN and OUT on in-active fabric) the SCP CF

processor card (NTET11AA or ACCA0130-2001 SCP-ASXCF Rev. K/L/M)

can cause permanent damage to the board. The work-around is to remove the

fabric with the SCP card. This problem is resolved in the SCP HA processor

card (that is, NTET11AC).

The ESI card takes 125 seconds to sync to the source. Bellcore standards

indicate that a Stratum 3 clock must lock within 100 seconds.

Magellan Vector 2.0 Release Note, Issue 1.9.1

Customers who are running 2.0.3, 2.0.4 or 2.0.7 and before with pmp or

backplane throughpaths conﬁgured must use the upgrade and installation

procedure described in Appendix A.

New ﬁrmware for the External Synchronization Card has been introduced

which improves the locking characteristics to the BITS timing source. A

version 9 listed under conﬁguration esi show will be displayed for ESI cards

containing the new updated ﬁrmware.

Fast SPVC re-routing in the event of a cable failure has been introduced for

OC3 and J2 Netmods.

The reset command introduced in Vector Release VSS2.0.4 under operation

linkmod has been replaced in VSS2.0.8 with the command operation netmod

reset. This VMI command provides the ability re-initialize the speciﬁed

netmod. Note: Invoking this command causes service disruptions to all ports

on the affected netmod.

Users who wish to install or migrate to MDP version 10.3.1 should refer to the

Magellan Data Provider User Guide, NTP 241-6001-309 for installation and

operation instructions. MDP 10.3.1 (version MDP103Pax) requires the Solaris

operating system and application of patch 10.3-14.
