PCR: 31191

Module: PORTAUTH, USER

Level: 2

A device in a supplicant role failed to authenticate if it used EAP-MD5 encryption with Windows 2000 or 2003 Server as the RADIUS server. Also, a fatal error occurred if the device received EAPOL packets containing a very large value in the packet length field. These issues have been resolved.

PCR: 31192 Module: LOG

Level: 3

Syslog entries did not contain the date, time and unique identifier of the message source. This issue has been resolved. The CREATE LOG OUTPUT and SET LOG OUTPUT commands have been modified to control whether or not this information is included.

The following parameter has been added to the CREATE LOG OUTPUT and SET LOG OUTPUT commands:

[SYSLOGFORMAT=NORMALEXTENDED]

If the SYSLOGFORMAT parameter is set to EXTENDED the date, time and unique identifier of message source are included in the syslog message. If the parameter is set to NORMAL, this information is not included in the syslog message. The default is NORMAL.

PCR: 31193

Module: IPG

Level: 2

When IP multicasting was not enabled, all IP multicast packets were passed to the CPU, causing overloading. This issue has been resolved. Now, if IP multicasting is not enabled, these packets are not sent to the CPU.

PCR: 31194

Module: BGP, IP

Level: 3

When executing the command:

ADD IP ROUTEMAP ENTRY SET ASPATH

followed by the command:

ADD IP ROUTEMAP ENTRY COMMUNITY ADD=YES

where the values for ROUTEMAP and ENTRY were the same in both commands, the second command failed and returned a “ROUTEMAP clause already exists” error message. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 31201

Module: SW56, SWI

Level: 2

Fibre GBICs on Rapier and AT-8800 series switches sometimes did not establish a link when powered on for the first time. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 31205

Module: VRRP

Level: 3

Two VRRP log messages were displayed when they should not have been.

The log messages were:

Vrrp 1: Vlan vlan2 10 Port Failed decrementing priority by 20

Vrrp 1: Vlan vlan2 1 Port up incrementing priority by 2

This issue has been resolved. These messages are now displayed at the correct time.
