received the message on two or more interfaces, and when PIM6 operated in a

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

looped or network topology that had multiple unicast routes to the same

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

destination(s), it sometimes selected a sub-optimal route for RPF interface

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

selection for RP and BSR elections.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been addressed by an additional algorithm to deal with equal cost

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

multipath routes as follows:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

a. if more than one route to the same given destination with equal cost exists,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

then the route with highest nexthop IP address value will be selected.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

b. if the nexthop IP address values are the same (the routes come from the same

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

device on different interfaces), then the routes with highest interface index will

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

be selected.

ISAKMP

Previously, if an IPsec/ISAKMP tunnel was under heavy load, an ISAKMP peer may

have retransmitted messages. When the last message in an ISAKMP exchange

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

was retransmitted, the remote peer did not expect to receive the second message

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

after the exchange had finished and caused the router or switch to reboot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved.

When the SSL server had multiple concurrent users, some SSL sessions failed to

establish, because the SSL handshakes failed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved.

received an illegal RADIUS packet (an Access-Reject packet with an EAP code of

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“successful”), the router or switch would reboot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved. The switch now rejects such authentication

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

requests.
