Patch 86222-09 includes all issues resolved and enhancements released in previous patches for Software Release 2.2.2, and the following enhancements:

PCR: 01189 Module: STP, SWI Network affecting: Yes

A new feature, STP forwarding, has been added. STP forwarding can be enabled and disabled using the commands:

ENABLE SWI STPFORWARD

DISABLE SWI STPFORWARD

When STP forwarding is enabled, all STP forwarding is ignored and all

BDPUs received on a port are forwarded on all other ports.

PCR: 01242 Module: CORE, SNMP Network affecting: No

The switch now delays sending link traps immediately after a restart to give the link to the trap host time to come up. A similar change has been made for the cold start trap. After a 10s delay, all interfaces which are UP have a link trap generated for them. After that, link traps are sent as normal.

PCR: 01244 Module: SWI, CORE, IPG Network affecting: No

Processing invalid UDP packets caused a memory leak. This issue has been resolved. Additional debugging facilities were added.

PCR: 01246 Module: SWI Network affecting: No

The default setting for the switch port parameter INFILTERING is now OFF, as specified in IEEE802.1Q. A VLAN will still reject these packets if they are not from valid VLAN member ports.

PCR: 01247 Module: IPG Network affecting: No

The IGMP snooping forwarding process now correctly selects outgoing ports when DVMRP is managing the multicast routing information.
