Patch
PCR: 02429 | Module: IPG | Level: 2 |
When more than two firewall policies were configured, an unexpected switch restart sometimes occurred. This issue has been resolved.
PCR: 02562 | Module: SWI |
Dynamic Port Security allows for dynamic MAC address learning on a switch port. If a MAC address is unused for a period of time, it will be aged from the database of currently accepted MAC addresses. This allows the learning of new MAC addresses. Dynamic Port Security is useful because port security allows the number of devices that are connected to a particular switch port to be limited.
For more information on Dynamic Port Security, see “Dynamic Port
Security” on page 29 of this patch release note.
PCR: 03042 | Module: PIM | Level: 3 |
PIM join messages were being sent by a switch connected to an upstream and a downstream switch or router in the same VLAN when a multicast group had no members. This issue has been resolved.
PCR: 03044 | Module: BGP | Level: 2 |
The switch did not always advertise its preferred routes to destinations that were affected by flapping routes. In these conditions, a BGP network does not run efficiently. This issue has been resolved.
PCR: 03048 | Module: STP | Level: 2 |
A switch port belonging to an enabled STP instance would not respond to ARP requests if the port had been disabled from STP operation. This prevented the flow of some types of traffic into affected switch ports. This issue has been resolved.
PCR: 03054 Module: TTY, TACPLUS
When a connection is made by Telnet, or directly through the ASYN port, a
TTY session is created with:
■an idle timeout time. The default idle time is zero, which means the TTY session will not time out if there is a lack of activity. If a TACACS+ server is configured on the switch, and the idle time attribute value pair (AVP) is configured on the TACACS+ server and is received by the switch, the value of the idle time from the TACACS+ server is used to set the TTY session.
■a timeout of zero, which means that the TTY session will not time out. If a TACACS+ server is configured on the switch, and the timeout attribute value pair (AVP) is configured on the TACACS+ server and received by the switch, the value of the timeout from the TACACS+ server is used to set the TTY session timeout. After the timeout period has elapsed, the user will either be disconnected by termination of their TTY connection (the default setting), or have their privilege level reduced to USER (the lowest privilege level). If the user’s privilege level is already at the lowest level, then the user will be disconnected by termination of their TTY connection. If the user’s privilege level is reduced, the TTY session timeout count is reset to its initial value.
