A new logging category - Denied LAN IP - has been 
added to the Log Settings page. When enabled, all

formatted data.

Services can now be defined using ranges of ports.

Multiple subnets can now be accessed through 
VPN tunnels.

Individual rules can now be edited and disabled. 
Rules can also be enforced by time of day.

A restart is no longer required after adding, 
deleting or changing rules.

Fragmented IPSEC and PPTP packets can now pass 
through the Firewall.

WINS server addresses can now be assigned to 
LAN clients by the Firewall DHCP Server.

definitions of attacks.

A PPPoE inactivity time-out has been added.

The date can now be displayed in an International 
format (DD/MM/YYYY).

The Syslog Individual Event Rate feature enables 
control over the time period between similar 
events being reported to the Syslog.

Napster is now a pre-defined service.

The current status of DHCP leases are now shown 
on the DHCP/Status page.

Known Problems with this Release

VPN Operation

You may need to reconfigure VPN clients to use 
the new GroupVPN feature. The GroupVPN 
security association must be used for multiple VPN 
clients.

When configuring a VPN security association, the 
encryption method must be specified. The 
“AH-MD5” encryption method does not function 
correctly when interoperating with version 5.0.7 of 
SuperStack 3 Firewall or version 5.0.8 of 
OfficeConnect Firewall.

Note the following if you have configured the 
Firewall to be a PPPoE client and wish to establish a 
VPN tunnel through the firewall using PPTP 
protocol. When using Microsoft Dial up 
Networking V1.3 on Windows 95/98, the client PC 
must have the IP packet size set to “medium” in 
Dial up Networking. 

Windows 2000 is not affected as it automatically 
adjusts the packet size.
