3Com Network Supervisor Discovery
When using 3Com Network Supervisor with previous versions of the software, 3Com Network Supervisor was unable to display the unit on the network topology. This will prevent you from using 3Com Network Supervisor to update the software from 1.00 or 1.01.
This has been fixed. The Switch running software version 1.02 and above can be discovered successfully using 3Com Network Supervisor and the correct network topology generated.
