Patch 86222-25 For Rapier Switches and AR800 Series Modular Switching Routers

Patch 86222-25 for Software Release 2.2.2
C613-10319-00 REV X

STP always transmits untagged packets. If a port does not belong to a 
VLAN as an untagged port, then the port must belong to one VLAN as a 
tagged port. In this case, STP should transmit VLAN tagged packets out of 
the port.

The IP, MASK, and ACTION parameters could not be set with the SET IP 
ROUTE FILTER command.  This issue is resolved when the filter number is 
specified at the start of the command, for example:

   SET IP ROUTE FILTER=

filter-id 

IP=

ipadd 

MASK=

ipadd 

ACTION={INCLUDE|EXCLUDE}

where: 

filter-id

 is the filter number.  Filter numbers are displayed in the 

output of the SHOW IP ROUTE FILTER command.

The built in Self Test Code for all Rapiers, except G6, has been improved to 
enhance the detection of faults in switch chip external packet memory.

An AS boundary router advertises AS external LSAs to other routers. 
However, when the router’s configuration changed, either by adding an IP 
route filter, or by setting its ASEXTERNAL parameter to OFF using the SET 
OSPF ASEXTERNAL command followed by a restart, its neighbour state 
could not reach full state. Also, when the router had IP route filters 
configured, matched routes were not being flooded into other routers. 
However, these routes should still have been imported into the router’s 
own LSA database, but were not. These issues have been resolved.

The IPG module has been enhanced to support gratiutous ARP request and 
ARP reply packets.

The Rapier was not detecting invalid checksums in ICMP echo request 
packets.  This issue has been resolved.  ICMP echo request packets with 
invalid checksums are now dropped and the ICMP 

inErrors

 and 

inDiscards

 

counters are incremented.

A simple DHCP range MIB and a trap have been added. The trap is 
triggered when a DHCP request cannot be satisfied. The gateway address 
and the interface address are sent as trap variables. The range table shows 
which range was exhausted. A debug variable, 

swiDebugBroadcomParityErrors

 has been added to the SWI module MIB to 

count the SDRAM parity errors in the packet memory of the Broadcom 
switch chip.

Packets traversing in and out of the same public firewall interface were 
sometimes blocked. The firewall should only control packets passing 
between a public and a private interface. This issue has been resolved.
