ASYN, Log

The following issues occurred with sending log messages to an asynchronous

port:

■ The log messages output on an asynchronous port were corrupt.

■ When log messages were output to an asynchronous port, that port was

(correctly) locked. However, the port remained locked after the asynchronous

log output definition was destroyed, and after the log output's destination

was changed from asynchronous to something else.

■ It was possible for a user to change the log output destination to an

asynchronous port while the user was logged into the asynchronous port. This

resulted in the user losing access to the command line interface.

■ It was possible to create a log output definition with an asynchronous port as

the destination even when another user was logged into that asynchronous

port. This resulted in the other user losing access to the command line

interface.

■ If a user changed the log output destination to an asynchronous port and

specified invalid parameters in the command, an error message was displayed

but the new output destination was saved anyway.

■ The set command allowed a user to specify an asynchronous port as the

destination without specifying the asynchronous port number. The number

defaulted to asyn0, which may not have been the desired port.

These issues have been resolved.

RIPng (for IPv6) sometimes sent sub-optimal routes to its neighbours. When

RIPng was configured in a network with loop topology, this could cause unstable

routing table entries on the neighbours (the metric kept being updated, as a

result of updates from neighbours).

This issue has been resolved. RIPng no longer sends sub-optimal routes.
