Patch Release Note

Patch SB251-10 for Software Release 2.5.1

C613-10361-00 REV J

After autonegotiation had finished between two ports, the port on the 
SwitchBlade would not show link up status when the SHOW SWITCH 
PORT command was executed.   The autonegotiation process is now 
restarted if autonegotiation is completed and the link is shown as down.

The LEDs on line cards now continue to flash when activity exists. 
Previously if a cable was connected and disconnected to Line 48 and G8 
ports, with traffic being transmitted from the other end, then the LED 
would stop flashing, even when there was activity on the link.

Features in SB251-03

Patch file details are listed in Table 8.

Patch SB251-03 includes all issues resolved and enhancements released in 
previous patches for Software Release 2.5.1, and the following enhancements:

The SwitchBlade mirror port field on the second instance of a switch chip 
was displaying as though it was the first instance.  For example, if 2.26 was 
configured as the mirror port, the GUI mirror object would return 2.2.  The 
first chip instance was not affected.  This issue has been resolved.

TCP6 did not send a 

TCP Reset

 message under some circumstances, for 

example when the Telnet server was disabled. This issue has been resolved.

A buffer address was incrementing and not returning buffers for reuse 
when the command line interface was accessed via the GUI interface.  This 
issue has been resolved.

If the SET SWITCH BLADE command was executed with the default 
settings, then the default settings were added to the configuration file.  The 
SET SWITCH BLADE settings are now only added to the configuration file 
if they differ from the default settings.
