Software Fixes in Release L.10.01 - L.11.09

Release L.10.03

■

SNMP (PR_1000295753)

 — Removing the 'public' SNMP community name generates an 

empty Event Log message.

■

SNMP (PR_1000310841)

 — User can assign illegal values for hpSwitchCosDSCPPolicyP-

riority through SNMP. All other user-interfaces for configuring QoS (CLI, Web UI, ProCurve 
Manager, and Radius) function correctly.

■

SNMP Link Up Traps and ARP Flush (PR_1000293466)

 — After issuing the CLI 

command: "snmp-server host <ip address> public all", generic Link Up traps are not gener-
ated. Also, the switch flushes its ARP cache whenever a port comes online, after issuing the 
command.

■

SNMP Traps (PR_1000285195)

 — When link-up/link-down traps are disabled for a port 

(using SNMP commands), after reboot the switch automatically re-enables those traps.

■

Web Authentication (PR_1000302945)

 — When a port is set to Web Authentication and 

the client fails authentication, it is assigned to the Unauthorized VLAN; however, it cannot 
communicate with other ports on the Unauthorized VLAN.

■

Web/Stacking (PR_1000308933)

 — Added Web User Interface stacking support for the 

new Series 3500yl switches, providing a 3500yl “back-of-box” display when the 4200vl is stack 
commander and a 3500yl is a stack member.

Release L.10.03

Problems Resolved in Release L.10.03 

(Not a general release)

 

■

Crash (PR_1000282359)

 — The switch may crash with a bus error similar to: 

PPC Bus Error exception vector 0x300: Stack Frame=0x0c8c1a70 

HW Addr=0x6a73616c IP=0x007d3bc0 Task='mSess1' Task ID=0xc8c2920 

fp: 0x6b61736a sp:0x0c8c1b30 lr:0x007d3b28.

■

Help (PR_1000317711)

 — In the VLAN menu Help text, the word 'default' is mis-spelled.

■

Menu (PR_1000318531)

 — When using the Menu interface, the Switch hostname may be 

displayed incorrectly.

■

Routing (PR_1000301005)

 — Certain types of traffic cause the switch to route very slowly 

and drop packets.

■

RSTP (PR_1000307278)

 — Replacing an 802.1D bridge device with an end node (non-STP 

device) on the same Switch port, can result in the RSTP Switch sending TCNs.

■

SNMP (PR_1000315054) 

— SNMP security violations appear in syslog after a valid 

SNMPv3 “get” operation.
