Annex Communications Server R10.0B and Annex Host Tools R14.2 Release Notes
302565-A Rev. 00
CIDR
The Annex now supports Classless Interdomain Routing (CIDR),
which provides for supernetting of Class C addresses. Supernetting
allows you to use a subnet mask that is shorter than the intrinsic mask
derived from the class of the Internet address.
IP Basic Security Option (IPSO)
The Annex partially implements this security option by adding the
IPSO classification level to packets generated by telnet or rlogin
running on an Annex dedicated, adaptive, or CLI port.
ACP Port Statistics Logging
This feature tracks the number of packets sent and received and the
total number of bytes sent and received for each session.
TAP Identification Protocol
The Annex now supports this feature as defined in RFC 1413. TAP
Identification Protocol can determine the identity of a user of a
particular TCP connection. Given a TCP port number pair, TAP
returns a character string that identifies the owner of that connection
on the server's system.
Filtering Improvements
Changes have been made to the filter-action algorithm. There are four
filter lists for any interface:
❑
global filter list for input (interface set to the * symbol)
❑
global filter list for output (interface set to the * symbol)
❑
local filter list for input (interface set to other than *)
❑
local filter list for output (interface set to other than *)
