4 Features in 54266-02Patch Release Note

PCR: 40466

Module: ISAKMP

Level: 2

When the router was the initiator in an ISAKMP Quick mode exchange with a PC running Windows 2000 or Windows XP, the IPSEC communication would not establish successfully. This was because the Windows PC set the commit bit in the exchange, but sent the CONNECTED Notify payload in the Quick mode exchange. However, the router was waiting for an Informational Exchange containing a Notify payload (with the CONNECTED Notify Message) as specified by RFC 2408. Because an Informational message was expected, the device did not process the Quick mode CONNECTED message, and so the exchange was never committed.

Although this behaviour is described as "not required by the IKE standard" [http://www.microsoft.com/technet/community/columns/cableguy/ cg0602.mspx], the device will now process CONNECTED messages received in Quick mode exchanges, to allow interoperability with other vendors.

PCR: 40470

Module: BGP

Level: 2

When BGP redistributed routes, locally imported routes were selected rather than peer learnt routes. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 40479

Module: OSPF

Level: 2

For OSPF-originated routes, it was possible for a route to be deleted from the IP routing table, but still be referenced by OSPF. This could cause a router reboot when later generating a summary LSA that contained the old route. This occurred using the reset ip command. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 40496 Module: DHCP

Level: 2

When DHCP is enabled, it reclaims IP addresses at router startup to determine if the addresses are in use or not. If, during this process, DHCP was disabled then re-enabled, the router would not attempt to reclaim the remaining IP address ranges. This would lead to the rejection of DHCP requests for IP addresses that were still being reclaimed. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 40516 Module: DHCP

Level: 2

While initialising a range, the router acting as a DHCP server may release a dynamic entry incorrectly. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 40520 Module: DVMRP

Level: 2

Multicast data could not flow from PIM to DVMRP on a PIM/DVMRP border router. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 40530

Module: IPG

Level: 2

When both Load Balancer and Firewall were configured, the very first TCP session was established after rebooting. Subsequent TCP session startup packets may have been routed out to an incorrect interface causing sessions to not be established. This issue has been resolved.
