Patch 86222-21 For Rapier Switches and AR800 Series Modular Switching Routers

15

PCR: 01272

Module: SWI

Network affecting: No

A physical port could not be re-enabled once disabled when STP was active.

This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 01273

Module: SWI

Network affecting: No

The CREATE CONFIG command now includes the STPFORWARDING parameter in generated scripts. The SHOW SWITCH command now displays the setting of STPFORWARDING.

PCR: 01274

Module: SWI

Network affecting: No

Refinements were made to the switch chip register settings improving CoS provision with the newer revision of switching silicon on the Rapier 16, Rapier 24 and Rapier 48.

PCR: 01275

Module: FIREWALL

Network affecting: No

The firewall was incorrectly forwarding multicast packets originating from a private address in cases where a matching route was defined. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 01276

Module: SWI

Network affecting: No

When the speed of one or more switch ports was forced to a half duplex setting and the ports were then added to a trunk group configured for full duplex operation, the port settings were not overridden by the trunk group speed setting. The trunk group speed setting will now take precedence over the port speed setting.

PCR: 01287

Module: OSPF

Network affecting: No

Configuring IP route filters did not stop flooding of AS external LSAs to neigbours at startup. The result was that the neigbour received the AS LSAs and added the corresponding routes into its own routing table. However, after some time (e.g. 1 hour), the AS external LSAs in the neigbour’s database disappeared, but the corresponding routes were still in its routing table. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 01289

Module: VRRP

Network affecting: No

The checksum in VRRP advertisements was not being calculated correctly. The calculation was not compatible with the RFC. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 01290

Module: PPP

Network affecting: No

When PPP was running over Ethernet to a client from another vendor, the

Maximum Transmission Unit value for the link was not adjusted from the

PPP default of 1500 to 1492. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 01291

Module: IPG(IGMP)

Network affecting: No

IGMP did not send the Start Up Query, and the Other Querier Present Timer did not change the Time Out value accordingly if Query Interval was changed. IGMP did not notify other registered parties (PIM and DVMRP) when a port was deleted from a membership group. IGMP reported a membership leave to other parties while it was still waiting for a reply to a group specific query from a leaving member. These issues have been resolved.

In a world increasingly dependent on cloud services and virtualization, the 86222-21 is designed to accommodate the growing need for bandwidth. It supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), which simplifies the installation of networked devices like IP cameras and wireless access points by providing power through the Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for separate power supplies. This not only streamlines device management but also enhances flexibility in network design.

Security is a paramount concern for any modern network, and this model addresses those needs with robust built-in security features. The device includes VLAN support, allowing for the segmentation of networks into distinct domains for enhanced data security and management. Access Control Lists (ACLs) further bolster network security by enabling fine-grained control over which devices can communicate with each other.

Allied Telesis 86222-21 also features an intuitive management interface, which is crucial for IT administrators responsible for maintaining network performance. The graphical user interface (GUI) and command line interface (CLI) provide flexibility in managing the switch, allowing for configuration changes and monitoring of network health with ease.

Additionally, this network switch is designed with energy efficiency in mind. It complies with various energy-saving standards, which not only reduces operational costs but also contributes to environmental sustainability.

Overall, the Allied Telesis 86222-21 is a powerful and flexible switch equipped with advanced features that cater to the needs of modern networks. It promotes efficient data management, robust security, and energy efficiency, making it a fitting solution for diverse networking requirements. Whether used in small offices or larger enterprise environments, its adaptability and performance capabilities make it a valuable asset in the pursuit of effective network communication.
