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.

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.
