Patch 86222-22 for Software Release 2.2.2
C613-10319-00 REV U
Features in 86222-18
Patch file details for Patch 86222-18 are listed in Table 5:
There is no patch release 86222-17 because this patch was withdrawn.
Patch 86222-18 includes all issues resolved and enhancements released in
previous patches for Software Release 2.2.2, and the following enhancements:
In some situations, the switch would stop forwarding packets via internal
and/or external uplink ports. This issue has been resolved.
If a flash write error occurred when a file was being written, the file’s
directory entry was deleted leaving a partial file in flash. Subsequent
attempts to write the file failed because a file of the same name already
existed. This issue has been resolved.
In configurations containing a large number of OSPF routes, the SPF
calculation could take a long time. During this calculation, other events
would not be processed. This patch reduces the time required for an SPF
calculation and allows the switch to respond to other events in the mean
time. This patch also improves the performance of flow cache updates.
If the FILE module was required to re-write a file, the existing file would be
deleted before the size of the new file was known. This issue has been
resolved.
OSPF virtual links running across a single network segment would accept
0.0.0.0 as the next hop address. This was inherited by derivative routes,
making them unusable. This issue has been resolved.
If a file ended short of an erase block boundary and a compaction was
started, the block in which the file was stored was not erased, causing errors
when new files were written. Also, if the last file in the filing system ended
on or short of an erase block boundary, and a compaction was started, then
compaction would fail. These issues have been resolved.
