destination as an existing route, the router or switch did not always change

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

existing data flows so that they used the new route. This meant that existing

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

flows did not always follow the optimal path.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved. When the router or switch learns a better IPv6 route,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

both new and existing flows now use it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, the commands create ipv6 interface and set ipv6 interface now include

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

a new parameter: metric. This allows you to set the RIP metric of link local

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

interfaces to a desired value. Note that the metric parameter is only valid on link

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

local interfaces.

In UPnP, Msearch requests were stored indefinitely, which eventually exhausted

the router’s memory and caused it to reboot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved. Msearch requests are now deleted once the router

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

has finished with them.

dynamic PPP interface on the LNS left out the PPP authentication phase.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This also prevented the interface from obtaining an IP address by remote IP

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

assignment from a User Database entry.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved.
