Previously the SPTbit on a PIM device was not set under the following conditions:

■ when a PIM neighbor was the RP (Rendezvous Point), and

■ when the PIM neighbor was not the RPF (Reverse Path Forwarding) neighbor

to the Source; that is, it did not have a direct connection to the Source traffic

stream.

In this situation, the SPTbit remained unset. This resulted in the non-RP PIM

device continually sending register messages awaiting a register STOP.

This issue has been resolved. Non-RP PIM devices no longer continually send

register messages.

TTL value, it was possible for the checksum to be 0xFFFF. This conformed to

RFC 1141 but not to RFC 1624. For switches, note that this issue did not affect

IP hardware routing, only packets routed by the CPU.

This issue has been resolved. Checksums are now calculated in accordance with

RFC 1624.

the prefix of an existing IPv6 interface route, then the changes were not saved in

the configuration file or output resulting from the commands create config and

show config dynamic. If the router or switch rebooted, the changes were lost.

This issue only occurred if the existing interface route and the modified prefix had

the same prefixlength.

This issue has been resolved.
