Features in 54266-02

Patch Release Note

PCR: 40621

Module: PING

Level: 2

In previous releases, ping poll commands only required entry of the first three characters of the Source IP Address (sipaddress) parameter. For example, add ping poll=1 ip=192.168.2.10 sip=192.168.2.1. Subsequent releases required entry of the first four parameters. This issue has been resolved, so that it is once again possible to enter just the first three characters.

PCR: 40646

Module: OSPF, IPG

Level: 2

For both RIP and OSPF, the router was adding a route with it own IP address for NEXTHOP address. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 40658

Module: L2TP

Level: 2

L2TP did not handle a change to its peer's UDP source port. If the tunnel went through a NAT box and that NAT box was reset, then it was possible for the remote port to change. L2TP should be able to handle this case and update the tunnel accordingly. A similar problem occurs when a IPsec NAT-T session (in transport mode) is re-negotiated. IPsec NAT-T uses port translation to distinguish between multiple clients behind a NAT box. If the IPsec session is renegotiated then the translated source port that IPsec passes to L2TP will change. L2TP must be able to handle this case, if it doesn't then the session will be lost. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 40668

Module: FFILE

Level: 2

The router would not respond to the setting of the maxqueueseverity parameter when configuring logging. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 40728

Module: IPNAT

Level: 2

When IP NAT was configured, a router reboot could occur if a TCP RST packet was received in which the ACK flag and at least one other flag had been set. This issue has been resolved.

Level 3

PCR: 31225

Module: IPG

Level: 3

While the router was set with a CIDR interface address, when it received an ECHO request with a network broadcast destination address for a class C network, the router sent the ECHO reply packet. Also, the router forwarded the ECHO request packet using a broadcast MAC address. These issues have been resolved.
