Patch 86253-07 For Rapier Series Switches

7

PCR: 03953

Module: SW56

Level: 3

On AT-8800 series switches, strict QoS scheduling is now enforced for ports where egress rate limiting is applied. On Rapier i series switches, the same QoS setup is now applied to all of the appropriate ports when setting up egress rate limiting.

PCR: 03970

Module: IPV6

Level: 3

If an IPv6 filter that blocked traffic on a VLAN interface was removed, the traffic was still blocked. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 03982

Module: FIREWALL

Level: 3

The SMTP proxy did not correctly filter sessions where messages were fragmented. This had the potential to prevent the detection of third-party relay attacks. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 03993

Module: FIREWALL

Level: 4

The AUTHENTICATION parameter has been removed from the “?” CLI help for firewall commands. This was not a valid parameter.

PCR: 03996

Module: FIREWALL

Level: 2

Occasionally some firewall timers stopped early, resulting in sessions being removed prematurely. Because of this, TCP Reset packets could be sent by the firewall before TCP sessions were finished. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 03997

Module: IPG

Level: 3

When policy-based routing was active, IP packets not matching any policy- specific routes were forwarded, even if there was no default policy route. This issue has been resolved. Now, a route whose policy exactly matches the policy of the packet is selected. If an exact match does not exist, a route with the default policy will be used to route the packet. If no route is found, the packet is discarded. The TOS field in incoming IP packets is ignored, so packets with the TOS value set are forwarded using a route with the default policy.

PCR: 31002

Module: UTILITY

Level: 2

Sometimes the device rebooted when a severe multicast storm occurred due to a loop in the network. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 31004

Module: TTY

Level: 2

If a SHOW command that displayed a lot of information, such as SHOW DEBUG, was executed when the device’s free buffer level was very low, the device sometimes became unresponsive. This could also occur if many SHOW commands were executed through a script. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 31009

Module: HTTP

Level: 3

The server string was not copied correctly into an HTTP file request when loading information from the configuration script. This issue has been resolved.
