Previously, when 300 MAC address filters were added to a port and the port was

The router or switch sometimes unexpectedly stopped forwarding IPv6 multicast

traffic if the multicast’s upstream path changed. This could occur, for example,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

when the path changed because an interface went down.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CR00009201

ARP

An ARP timeout caused the removal of the ARP entry, resulting in packet loss until

ATM

When the router was using IPsec and either IPoEoA or IPoA, and it received traffic

from a VLAN at a higher rate than it could transmit over the ADSL link, eventually

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the ATM interface would intermittently stop transmitting traffic.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved.

CR00009539

IP Gateway

2

The IP DNS cache feature was not designed to include MX (Mail Exchange) DNS

records. In some circumstances, MX DNS entries were added to the IP DNS cache

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and the name of a DNS record was incorrectly associated with the IP address of

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the MX entry. This stopped the router or switch from correctly resolving A-record

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

requests for the affected domain name.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved by ensuring that MX entries are never added to the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

IP DNS cache.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CR00010265

When the ingress and egress port were defined in an Layer 3 filter with an action

of deny, the filter denied the traffic to be sent out all the egress ports and not

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

just the egress port specified in the filter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved.
