MLD

When MLD snooping creates an All Router group, it also (correctly) adds router

ports to other groups. However, when MLD Snooping detected that there were

IPv6, Switch

no more router ports in the network, it deleted the All Router group but did not

delete the router ports from the other groups.

This issue has been resolved.

Bridge

The Bridge cannot be configured to bridge PPPoE packets from an Ethernet

interface that has also been configured as a PPPoE interface. Previously, such a

Bridge configuration would appear to succeed. However the Bridge would not

bridge PPPoE packets and the router would restart when the command reset

bridge was entered.

This issue has been resolved. Note: if you want to bridge PPPoE packets, do not

also configure the router as a PPPoE endpoint (by using the command create

ppp=number over=ethx-any).

MSTP

Because of an MSTP issue, the switch did not always send a BPDU with an

agreement flag to its designated bridge, even if the switch was synchronised with

the latest spanning tree information from the designated bridge. This prevented

the designated port on the designated bridge from making a fast transition to

the forwarding state. The result was that the network could take up to two times

the “forward delay” time to fully converge.

This issue has been resolved.

IP Gateway

When a static ARP is deleted, the router or switch sends out an ARP request to

attempt to create a dynamic ARP for that IP address. Previously, the router or

switch did not process the ARP response correctly and therefore did not add the

ARP to its ARP table.

This issue has been resolved. When a static ARP is deleted, the router or switch

attempts to create a dynamic ARP for that IP address, and will successfully add it

to the ARP table if a device responds.
