Core

-

It is now possible to hotswap NSMs on NEBS-compliant Rapier i switches.

Y

 

 

 

To hotswap the NSM, press the Hot Swap button beside the NSM, check that the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Swap LED turns on and the In Use LED turns off, then remove the NSM. Place the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

new NSM in the bay, then press the Hot Swap button again to make the NSM

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

available for use.

IP Gateway

-

The IP implementation has been enhanced to accept IP interfaces with a /31

netmask. This results in a slightly non-standard subnet that has no network

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

address or broadcast address. This has become a popular extension to IP, because

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

it reduces wastage of IP addresses on point-to-point links.

database, VLANs, logging, and file management. The “?” help for these (and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

several other) modules now gives information about all command parameters.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CR00013449

Firewall

-

The firewall now supports FTP sessions that use the security extensions defined in

Y

Y

Y

Y

Y

Y

 

 

 

RFC 2228. Previously, the firewall dropped sessions that used those security

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

extensions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This enhancement makes more-secure FTP available between private-side clients

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and public-side servers, and between public-side clients and private-side servers.

Telnet

-

This enhancement enables you to select whether the system name appears at the

login prompt for telnet client sessions. By default, the system name appears. To

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

prevent it from appearing, use the command:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SET TELnet LOGINSYStemname=OFF

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note that the login prompt appears before you log into the router or switch.
