=============================================================================

Revision 11.03/4 corrects the following problems:

=============================================================================

CR 25571: OSI.

          Within the default metric field of an OSI LSP, the 0x40 bit

          indicates whether the metric is internal or external. The router

          does not check this field.



CR 31110: SNMP.

          When you type "show snmp base" using the Technician Interface, the

          displayed information has some misspelled words.



CR 33687: OSI.

          After the router receives a new LSP with a new sequence number and

          checksum, the sequence number and checksum in WfOsiL2LspHdrEntry are

          not updated.



CR 33778: OSPF.

          If there are multiple ASBRs announcing default routes in their

          ASEs, the Technician Interface lists only one default route.



CR 33841: ATM.

          The SSCOP window does not conform to the Q.SAAL (Q.2110)

          specification. Bay Networks router code does not respect the Q.SAAL

          window credit specified by the switch. As a side effect of this

          change, LECs may struggle to come up if signaling goes down for any

          reason because the router and the switch cannot communicate fast

          enough to keep the connections from timing out. If this occurs, we

          suggest that the value of wfAtmSscopEntry.wfAtmSscopMaxPd be set to

          a low value (4 or 5).



CR 33867: IP.

          A bus error occurs when setting wfIpBaseExtendedTrafficFilterSupport

          to 1 when ISP Mode is enabled.



CR 33969: OSI.

          Disabling an OSI interface causes other OSI slots to terminate

          operation with a panic in mib_ent.c.



CR 34957: ATM.

          The Bay VNR gives a signalling credit window of 128 frames to its

          peer. The Fore Switch typically provides a credit of eight frames,

          resulting in an unbalanced window. The MIB attribute

          wfAtmSscopInitCredit was created to set the initial window credit

          for the Bay Networks router.



CR 71585: Technician Interface.

          When you use the show csmacd stats command, if the numbers that

          appear are large, the Technician Interface displays them as negative

          numbers.



CR 72024: FTP.

          When you attempt to send files less than 2K from a Unix system to a

          router, the transfer fails.



CR 72134: ASN.

          When you boot an ASN with 100Meg ENET net modules and Circuitless

          IP, a bus error may occur.



CR 72794: Technician Interface.

          Using the disable sync circ <cir name> command on a multiline

          circuit only disables the first circuit.



CR 73832: SDLC.

          A router connected via SDLC to an IBM controller will not set the

          poll/final bit in any I-frames it transmits, despite the fact that

          the default value for wfSdlcLSAdminEntry.24 (PollOnIframeEnable) is

          set to TRUE. This value should be set to FALSE if the controller

          cannot tolerate the poll bit set in an I-frame and left to TRUE if

          it can.



CR 74301: Technician Interface.

          The log command should display the year as four digits (for example,

          2000) in the header of each log entry. Also the dir command should

          display the year of the file’s timestamp as four digits.



CR 75414: APPN.

          In a large APPN network, some of the routers unexpectedly terminate

          operation.



CR 75484: DLSw.

          In certain protocol exchanges, DLSw connections can get stuck in the

          CIRCUIT_PENDING state and do not recover until DLSw or LLC is

          bounced (or the router is rebooted).



CR 75726: Switched Services.

          The weekend schedule for a backup circuit does not function

          correctly when another schedule is configured. For example, if you

          modify the date on the router so that the backup circuit is active

          for the scheduled weekday, the backup circuit is not active.



CR 78421: SRB.

          A router running Source Route Bridge over Token Ring may cause

          an MCP error.

   

CR 78426: Learning Bridge.

          An orphan buffer may occur when bridging packets over a PPP

          interface.



CR 78498: Flash.

          When a crash dump is omitted at system restart, a message that

          indicates the reason should be written to the log.



CR 78589: OSPF.

          In a redundant environment, with two area border routers into an

          area, when one of those routers is configured to summarize routes

          from one area into another area, the router continuously faults in

          ospf_sum_net at line 1110. This fault occurs until OSPF unloads

          from the slot.



CR 78863: OSPF.

          If an OSPF border router learns a route which is less specific than

          the summary range configured on it, it then will generate the wrong

          type 3 lsdb.



CR 79226: OSPF.

          After bouncing an IP or OSPF base, and exception vector 2 bus error

          occurs.



=============================================================================

Revision 11.03/3 corrects the following problems:

=============================================================================

CR 24390: ATM.

          An MCP may occur after dynamically changing a Hybrid Mode PVC on an

          ATM interface.



CR 26774: ATM.

          A router running LANE crashes with an MCP error after losing and

          then regaining signalling.



CR 28218: IP.

          A fault will occur after a route with an invalid subnet mask is

          added to the route table and then a subsequent route in the same

          range is submitted.



CR 28589: BootP.

          If you configure DHCP on a multinetted interface, the last IP

          address configured should become the DHCP gateway. If you reboot the

          router, the last configured IP address is no longer the DHCP

          gateway. Instead, another IP address on that interface becomes the

          gateway.



CR 28639: APPN.

          To use a Default DLUS name for link stations that are not defined in

          the APPN Adjacent Link Stations table, you must define both the

          Default DLUS name and the Backup Default DLUS name. This feature

          should work with only the Default DLUS name specified.



CR 29307: APPN.

          When you have Dependent (PU2.0) devices in session and enter the

          command "appn show dlur route," garbage is displayed in the route

          field.



CR 31528: IPEX.

          When configuring IPEX mapping sessions for the X.25 gateway, the

          source circuit and source type are not being set.



CR 32070: Dial-on-Demand.

          In a configuration where AURP runs over a Dial-On-Demand line with

          WCP configured, packets may be lost, causing loss of IP

          connectivity.



CR 32142: IP.

          A counter problem causes wfIpInterfaceCacheNetworks to show a larger

          value than wfIpInterfaceFwdCacheSize. wfIpInterfaceCacheNetworks

          should never be larger than wfIpInterfaceFwdCacheSize.



CR 32624: Technician Interface.

          In User mode, the Read and Read/Write Communities can be viewed.

          Only the Read communities should be visible.



CR 32662: Technician Interface.

          If you run diagnostics for certain link modules (for example, Octal

          Sync, 100 Meg ethernet, or MCT1), a bus error occurs. The following

          conditions must be met to cause the error:

          1. The link module is the first to be installed in that slot.

          2. The FRE card must be installed first and have already completed

             its boot process.



CR 32997: IP.

          When a Token Ring interface receives a segmented IP packet that

          was incorrectly routed to it, the interface fails to send a second

          packet to the next correct hop.

         

CR 33453: LAPB.

          LAPB retransmits already acknowledged X.25 packets, causing

          the X25 switch on the other side to reset the LAPB session between

          the X.25 switch and the router. This causes X.25 virtual circuits to

          be reset and IP circuits over those virtual circuits to come down.



CR 33530: Telnet.

          An outbound Telnet session may hang and then freeze up the entire

          Technician Interface session.

         

CR 33681: LNM.

          When you run any show lnm command, the lnm.bat file does not

          terminate properly.



CR 34236: SYNC.

          Configuring a dial backup line using async PPP with Hayes modem on a

          DSNM causes a bus error.



CR 34254: DLSw.

          The log message for a negative CAPx message shows an offset of 0 for

          certain CAPx errors.



CR 34258: IP.

          This is an enhancement request provide the ability to display the 

          total number of IP routes per slot for all slots. Use the command

          "ip routes -O -s#" (where # is the slot number). If you do not enter

          a slot number, all slots are displayed.



CR 34487: PPP.

          If you have multiple PPP circuits on the same slot configured for

          LQR, a race condition may occur when the circuit states change,

          causing a bus error.



CR 34511: Translation Bridge.

          Configuring translation bridge dynamically over TR LANE causes an

          Exception Vector 2 MCP error on an ARE. The same error occurs if you

          bounce a service record which contains a translation bridge

          configuration.



CR 34595: Router Redundancy. 

          When you add multiple resources to a backed-up interface, only the

          first resource is checked.



CR 34746: QLLC.

          After modifying the QLLC map several times on an upstream router

          (with no more than a minute separating the modifications), a bus

          error occurs on the downstream router.



CR 35096: SDLC.

          SDLC does not properly interoperate with the AS/400 high

          speed line controller. SDLC should support "Flag Streaming" between

          frames while holding the Poll/Final bit, and then revert to Idle

          fill after the RR or last I-Frame returns the P/F bit to the AS/400.

          Added the following MIB parameters: wfSyncEntry.wfSyncForceIFTF

          (sync.mib) and wfLogicalLineEntry.wfLogicalLineIFTF(ds1e1.mib)



CR 35177: DLSw.

          BayRS is not fully compliant with RFC 1434 or RFC 1795 when

          operating with two half-duplex TCP connections. Added the

          wfDlsPeerInteroperability field in wfDlsPeerEntry

          object, which can take 2 values: enabled/disabled.

                 

CR 35181: ASN.

          When you boot an ASN that used to contain an MCE1 link module

          with an MCE port configured, bus errors or tag violation faults

          occur.



CR 35414: IP.

          In a multiline setup with three or more lines, if one of the lines

          goes down, the router may fail to resolve the far-end host address

          via ARP.



CR 35570: PPP.

          The PPP header size is incorrectly included in the calculation for

          determining the maximum frame size

          (wfIpxCircEntry.wfIpxCircLocalMaxPacketSize).



CR 35611: BGP.

          A VBM error may occur if BGP adds a new route while running on an

          ATM interface. 



CR 35751: OSPF.

          An ABR will not originate a new type 3 summary in the non-backbone

          area if another summary with the same LSID already exists in that

          area. The existing type 3 summary may not be valid.



CR 35878: DLSw.

          DLSw interoperability fails with non Bay Networks routers

          running RFC 2166.



CR 35985: SDLC.

          A DLSw connection does not recover properly after the SDLC line is

          brought down while in flow control.



CR 35992: ATM.

          When an LE_ARP request is sent to an ATM interface on the router,

          and the request is for the Group LAN ID of the source route bridges

          in the network, the router fails to respond.



CR 36052: OSPF.

          A problem exists in OSPF where under certain configurations, it will

          summarize a summary advertisement that is based on a stub network

          that is down. When the stub network goes down, OSPF fails to flush

          the summary generated based on the stub.



CR 70923: DECnet.

          DECnet adjacencies are aging prematurely because hello packets are

          being missed. Because of a timing problem, the router believes that

          three hellos have been missed instead of just one.



CR 71025: DLSw.

          An orphan buffer may occur if TCP is unable to transmit a buffer

          from DLSw after it is restored to DLSw.

          

CR 71080: IP.

          IP traffic filter with log and deny actions will send a message to

          the router log even if there is a match on another traffic filter

          higher in the list.



CR 71175: Switched Services.

          If you have backup circuits configured, setting the schedule

          parameter to any valid value has no functional effect. When the

          primary circuit fails, the backup circuit is activated, regardless

          of the configured time/day. This occurs only when the Availability

          Mode parameter is set to Not Available.

          

CR 71443: IPX.

          The router may experience a bus error when a host sends a RIP

          request or SAP request using a source socket of 9001 (NLSP).



CR 71517: IPX.

          If a static route is added after a learned route with a better cost,

          the static route is never added to the table. When the learned

          route ages out, the static route does not take effect.



CR 71769: Source Route Bridge.

          An SRF received on a source routing interface does not get sent out

          over the IP Encaps cloud after a panic or bounce of IP.



CR 71975: DLSw.

          DLS connection is not recovered after granted units counter reaches

          zero, which is a protocol violation.



CR 72074: X.25.

          If X.25 receives a disconnect request from the local interface and

          then receives a disconnect from the remote interface through IPEX,

          the VC may remain in an operational state and never be cleared.



CR 72328: IP.

          If you delete an a 10Meg Ethernet interface that is receiving

          traffic, and then re-add the interface with IP, the router

          terminates operation.



CR 72468: DVMRP.

          A router running DVMRP may deliver multicast packets to an

          application out-of-order.



CR 72565: Switched Services.

          You cannot manually activate a standby circuit when Bandwidth-on-

          Demand is enabled on a demand circuit.

          

CR 72633: VINES.

          When a VINES client sends a broadcast request, all servers respond.

          The client connects to the first server and then sends a disconnect

          message to the other servers. When the VINES client sends the

          disconnect message, the VINES interface on the router performs

          intensive processing for the forward cache and the slot where the

          client resides experiences a Watchdog fault.



CR 72792: LLC.

          When an LLC interface is disabled, a panic may occur after 30

          minutes instead of after one minute if the router is having resource

          problems.

          

CR 72996: ISDN.

          SPID is not registering after TE1 loss because two SPIDS are sent

          out of order.



CR 73592: VINES.

          A router does not properly update the VINES routing table after it

          receives a redirect packet.



CR 73764: IP.

          The router is dropping IP packets after ARPing for a destination’s

          address.



CR 73793: DLSw.

          The problem occurs with the following configuration: DLSw and SDLC

          configured as a single switch with a PU2.0 3174 controller. If the

          upstream or host side issues a disconnect message followed by an

          immediate XID poll five milliseconds later, the XID poll resets the

          internal LLC connection from state "HALT_PENDING" to

          "CIRCUIT_PENDING." The SDLC side proceeds to disconnect while the

          LLC side proceeds to the connected state. The connection remains

          hung with SDLC showing a state of CONTACT_PENDING, and LLC showing

          "CONNECTED" and no data flow. This results in an interoperation

          problem with the 5745 Enterprise Server.



CR 74189: VINES.

          A router running VINES does not reply to a request for Check

          Neighbor from a server running on NT. The VINES Server waits for a

          response and then resends the request until a timeout value is

          reached.



CR 74931: ATM.

          An ATM interface stops transmitting or intermittently transmits if a

          router is connected to an ATM switch that supports OAM. This

          problem occurs if the remote end of a PVC is brought down.



=============================================================================

Revision 11.03/2 corrects the following problems:

=============================================================================

CR 26589: OSPF.

          When you globally reset OSPF, a bus error may occur. The error

          occurs because the OSPF primary receive gate is holding an excessive

          number of buffers while it is waiting for buffers to be allocated to

          send to the secondary gate.



CR 35021: OSPF.

          The ignore action of an OSPF accept policy does not work.

         

CR 72873: OSPF.

          When you modify a router ID, more than one type 2 advertisement gets

          installed in the database. When the old advertisement is aged out,

          the route is removed, but no route is installed in the routing table

          for the new type 2 advertisement.

          

CR 36052: OSPF.

          A problem exists in OSPF where under certain configurations, it will

          summarize a summary advertisement that is based on a stub network

          that is down. When the stub network goes down, OSPF fails to flush

          the summary generated based on the stub.



CR 35611: BGP.

          If you are running BGP on an ARE, BGP faults when you try to add a

          new route.



CR 71779: IPX.

          IPX route filters do not work if multiple filters with

          different priorities are configured on a circuit.



CR 35570: PPP.

          The PPP header size is incorrectly included in the calculation for

          determining the maximum frame size

          (wfIpxCircEntry.wfIpxCircLocalMaxPacketSize).



CR 35414: IP.

          In a multiline setup with three or more lines, if one of the lines

          goes down, the router may fail to resolve the far-end host address

          via ARP.



CR 35887: OSPF.

          When you use an OSPF Announce Policy filter to aggregate a range of

          external networks, the aggregated LSA may constantly refresh if a

          network within the range is unstable. 



CR 36065: ATM.

          A VBM error occurs when the remote end of a PVC comes up with ATM

          switches that support OAM signals.



=============================================================================

Revision 11.03/1 corrects the following problems:

=============================================================================

CR 34737: QLLC.

          When you attempt to establish a connection using QLLC and the X.25

          connected device is down for an extended period of time, the router

          continually attempts to open an X.25 VC and QLLC holds onto buffers

          until a bus error occurs. After the bus error occurs, X.25 will not

          attempt to open a VC until X.25 is bounced, or the slot is reset.



CR 35911: OSPF.

          An AS External Route may fail to be installed into a routing table

          if a more specific route with the same address exists. For example,

          10.4.0.0/255.252.0.0 would fail to install if 10.4.0.0/255.255.255.0

          existed.



CR 35401: QLLC.

          A buffer leak occurs when an X.25 call is repeatedly made and

          cleared on behalf of QLLC requests to establish a session to a

          remote X.25 site, which clears the X.25 calls as it receives them.



CR 35704: QLLC.

          When a QLLC/X25 end station receives a QUA in response to sending

          out a QDISC, the QLLC/X25 end station may not clear the X.25 call

          upon receipt of the QUA. This causes the QLLC connection not to 

          re-establish because the QLLC router side expected the receiver

          of the QUA to clear the call.



CR 36062: DLSw.

          An orphan buffer may occur when a DLSw connection is terminated.

   

CR 35798: BGP.

          If you have multiple BGP connections to the same router and the "BGP

          Collision Detect" parameter is set to "Disable," the router drops

          one of the connections and logs a message stating that the

          connection was dropped because one exists.



CR 71767: AppleTalk.

          An AppleTalk interface on an ARE may experience a VBM error when

          aging networks. This occurs in an environment where there are both

          extended and non-extended networks.



CR 71423: QLLC.

          Upon receipt of an X.25 clear call response, the router may not

          clean up the QLLC connection. This causes the QLLC connection to not

          be reestablished.

            

CR 27053: X.25.

          X.25 service records stop receiving and transmitting traffic under

          congestion situations.



CR 34423: X.25.

          When a router recovers from congestion, it sends an X.25 RNR packet,

          but may fail to generate an X.25 RR packet because it is waiting for

          another part of a fragmented packet.



CR 35428: DLSw.

          When you run NetBIOS over DLSw Version 2.0, a panic may occur in

          dls_utils.c as a result of a race condition when establishing

          connections.



CR 35649: DVMRP.

   35650: This is an enhancement request to add a log message indicating that

          the state of a DVMRP circuit has changed.



CR 31861: Compression.

          When you run sync passthru over MLPPP with compression, bus errors

          and/or tag violations may occur.



CR 33353: Frame Relay.

          Source route bridging will stop forwarding packets when you

          dynamically change hybrid mode on a frame relay permanent virtual

          circuit (PVC). To correct the condition, you must reset the sync

          interface.



CR 34298: ARE.

          If you telnet to a circuitless IP address on an ARE and run various

          Technician Interface processes, VBM errors may occur.



CR 35525: DLSw.

          If you boot a router that has DLS Protocol Priority globally enabled

          and there is an ARE in the router, an exception vector-2 MCP may

          occur.

          

CR 35571: DLSw.

          A router cannot establish a DLSw session if that router

          has two peers that are terminated on an FDDI port.



CR 27745: DLSw.

   35204: When you reset an IP interface on a DLSw router, a bus error occurs.



CR 32879: IP.

          When you try to configure additional interfaces on a BLN configured

          for Host Only Mode, faults occur in map_rem.c.



CR 35132: DLSw.

          After a router receives an LLC XID frame, the router may not

          transmit a CANUREACH_cs message, which causes the router connections

          not to come up.



CR 33424: BootP.

          If there is not enough space in the vendor field of a BootP request,

          the following message fills up the log:

   

          2: 09/12/97 14:03:03.410   DEBUG     SLOT  2  BOOTP        Code:  8

          Received request on interface 68.224.252.224, inserting subnet mask

          Not enough space in vendor field to insert subnet mask



CR 35494: APPN.

          When you transfer an APPN topology from one router to another, the

          topology may not transfer completely.



CR 27324: ISDN.

          This is an enhancement request to allow you to configure the number

          of times a router will attempt to register a SPID (for basic rate

          ISDN) with an ISDN switch.



          The following parameters were added to wfIsdnLocalPhoneNumEntry:

          wfIsdnSpidRetries, wfIsdnSpidRetryAttempts, wfIsdnSpidRetryTimer,

          and wfIsdnSpidResetBri.



CR 34258: IP.

          This is an enhancement request provide the ability to display the 

          total number of IP routes per slot for all slots. Use the command

          "ip routes -O -s#" (where # is the slot number). If you do not enter

          a slot number, all slots are displayed.



CR 35507: PPP.

          If you have two routers connected via leased line and PPP using

          CHAP, and the CHAP timer is set to 0 on one router and to 60 on the

          other, the router with the timer set to 0 (the receiver) leaks

          memory. Eventually, that router runs out of memory and restarts.



CR 35911: OSPF.

          An AS External Route may fail to be installed into a routing table

          if a more specific route with the same address exists. For example,

          10.4.0.0/255.252.0.0 would fail to install if 10.4.0.0/255.255.255.0

          existed.



CR 35798: BGP.

          If you have multiple BGP connections to the same router and the "BGP

          Collision Detect" parameter is set to "Disable," the router drops

          one of the connections and logs a message stating that the

          connection was dropped because one exists.



CR 35935: DLSw.

          When you disconnect a token ring interface, a memory leak occurs and

          the router eventually faults.

      

CR 36062: DLSw.

          An orphan buffer may occur when a DLSw connection is terminated.



CR 33566: ISDN PRI.

          When messages are written to the log, an exception vector 3 -

          address error may occur because of a corrupted stack.



CR 33577: IP.

          A condition exists in all revisions of code where IP_BARP will

          consume all buffers on a slot if an external device is trying to

          reach nonexistent but valid host addresses on a subnet.



          A new MIB attribute, wfIpBaseArpBufLimitPrcnt, was added to wfIpBase

          to specify the percentage of total buffers that can be used by

          IP_BARP for buffer saving. To monitor this buffer activity, a new IP

          command, ip arp_buf was added.

 

CR 33604: IP.

          The router stops forwarding ASB packets out an interface after you

          make a dynamic change to an interface that has the same natural IP

          network configured as that interface.



CR 34753: ANH.

          After you boot an ANH router using ti.cfg, all partition and link

          LEDs remain on, even though the router does not have an ethernet

          interface configured. The lights do not go out until you run

          install and select ethernet as the driver type.



CR 34754: IP.

          A router configured for Dial Optimized Routing ages out RIP routes

          before the broadcast timer expires if the broadcast timer is set to

          24 hours.



CR 34771: DLSw.

          After upgrading from Router Software Release 10.01 to 11.02 or

          greater, some DLS sessions may fail to be established because the

          router may not generate a CANUREACH for every XID Fmt T2

          Poll received. In certain connection sequences, if the resulting

          test poll is not responded to, subsequent CANUREACH messages may not

          be generated although the router receives additional XID T2 Polls.



CR 34908: DECnet

          After you enable a DECnet router on an ethernet VLAN, a VBM error

          occurs on a router that is attached to the ethernet VLAN via ATM.



CR 35156: DECnet.

          If you set the global parameter Route Level to Level 1 (global), the

          router does not advertise itself.



CR 35208: DLSw.

          The performance of packets through llc/qllc topology degrades with

          high traffic.



CR 30029: OSPF.

          When a router receives database description packets from its

          neighbor, bus errors occur when there is a checksum failure at

          EXCHANGE state.



CR 30440: ISDN.

          After you reset an ISDN BRI interface using the Technician

          Interface, SPIDs get rejected.



CR 32169: Spanning Tree.

          The spanning tree algorithm selects the wrong bridge as the root

          bridge if the difference between two bridge IDs is greater than

          0x8001.



CR 33030: DVMRP.

          A watch dog timeout may occur when you perform a DVMRP MIB get.



CR 33958: PCAP.

          When using PCAP to capture packets, if a transmitted packet is

          larger than 140 bytes, PCAP will intermittently capture receive data

          before transmit data. If a transmitted packet is larger than 160

          bytes, PCAP will always capture receive data before transmit data.



CR 34322: TCP. 

          TCP retransmit-time-out value (RTO) is set to wfTcpRtoMax regardless

          of actual RTT (even if the actual RTT is short). If wfTcpRtoMax is

          the default (4 minutes), traffic over TCP (for example, DLS)

          suddenly stops for 4 minutes.



CR 34593: DECnet.

          The hello timer on a DECnet interface will fire one second later

          than the configured value.



CR 34596: Switched Services.

          If you bring down a B channel while both B channels are active, and

          then bring it back up, a fault occurs.



CR 34682: LLC.

          LLC2 traffic filter configuration does not work properly when you

          define a specific range for DSAP or SSAP values. The fact that a RIF

          field is present is not taken into account when applying the filter

          to the packet.



CR 34719: IP.

          IP will not install BGP routes when the BGP NEXT_HOP has an

          unnumbered link as its next hop.



CR 34776: ATM.

          An orphan buffer fault may occur in an environment where the ATM

          switch is frequently closing active ATM data virtual circuits.



CR 34959: DLSw

          Remote DLS clients do not reestablish a connection to the host

          after a network disruption.



CR 35172: DVMRP.

          An intermediate router may fail to send a graft when a router on a

          pruned branch restarts.



CR 28250: FTP

          When you transfer a file with a file name that starts with a numeric

          value to the router, the router faults and receives orphan buffers.



CR 28589: BootP

          The router does not generate correct DHCP request after being

          rebooted.



CR 32167: AppleTalk.

          AppleTalk may fault when the base record is bounced because of a

          race condition. This problems seems to occur on a HSSI/PPP line

          only.



CR 32277: IP.

          A RIP policy filter configured to generate routes may cause an

          excessive number of RIP2 frames to be generated during each periodic

          update.



CR 32595: Telnet.

          When you telnet from a Bay Networks router to another Bay Networks

          router, and then telnet to a UNIX workstation, the ESC key will not

          work.



CR 32752: FTP.

          During an ftp session, if you interrupt a dir command by entering

          Ctrl-C, an orphaned buffer fault may occur and the ftp session

          terminates.



CR 32826: BGP

          An aggregated route learned from a BGP peer will remain in the

          routing table after the route has been removed from the advertise

          list of the BGP announce policy of the peer. This happens when BGP

          Dynamic Policy change support is enabled.



CR 32840: IPX.

          In network configurations where a remote router uses Group Mode

          frame relay to connect to two different routers, network costing may

          be set so that one of the local routers connected to the remote

          routers Group Mode frame relay will not have an IPX host entry for

          the remote router. This causes all IPX pings from the remote router

          to fail. It also causes IPX pings to the remote frame

          relay interface to fail.



CR 33616: OSPF 

          Within an OSPF NBMA network, the neighbor adjacency between a DR

          eligible router (one that is not a DR or BDR) and an DR ineligible

          router continuously bounces between init and down states.



CR 34015: OSPF.

          When you set the Ospf Range Status parameter to "not advertise", a

          summary is advertised to the backbone area when it should be hidden.



CR 34272: Technician Interface.

          This is an enhancement request to increase the severity level of the

          message  "tf_validate: header size invalid, Object.1.18.3.5.1.4.3.1,

          Instance 29.1.1" to WARNING to indicate that the filter no longer

          operates correctly.

          

CR 34416: PPP/Multilink.

          This is an enhancement request to change the fragmentation algorithm

          to require that frames larger than the configured fragment size be

          fragmented.         



CR 34738: DLSw.

          When you disable DLSw on a router, SDLC Link Stations remain up and

          continue to poll indefinitely.



CR 34868: Translation Bridge.

          When a source routing traffic filter is applied to a packet, the

          router drops the packet destined for the source routing interfaces,

          but does not drop the packet destined for learning bridge

          interfaces.



CR 29517: IPX.

          If a router receives an IPX SAP packet on an interface with a

          network number that is different from the one for which the packet

          is destined, the packet is not dropped. 



CR 30870: ISDN.

          When you change a valid ISDN local telephone number in dynamic mode,

          the router terminates operation.



CR 31530: Router Discovery

          If you set the Min and Max Interval parameters to the same value, a

          zero divide bus error appears in the log



CR 33878: Technician Interface.

          You cannot use install.bat to install a new router using SMDS

          outside the US because the install.bat script adds the prefix "C1"

          for the configured individual address and "E1" for the group

          address. The "1" after C and E is the country code for US.



CR 34602: DLSw.

          A bus error may occur after you delete an X.25 circuit on a client

          router while two QLLC sessions are active. The bus error also

          terminates operation of the second circuit on the slot.



CR 34684: APPN.

          APPN over LANE does not work.When a router sends a test poll to a

          second router, the second router does not recognize the destination

          MAC address and does not forward the packet to APPN. The MAC

          override should not just change the ESI portion of the NSAP address,

          but should also change the actual hardware MAC address.



CR 30591: DLSw.

          There is no mechanism to display and monitor DLS and LLC2

          connections on a per slot and per interface basis.



          The following four MIB attributes were added:



          wfDlsSlotCurrentSessions - displays the number of DLS connections on

          the slot that are in a CONNECTED state.



          wfDlsSlotHiWaterSessions  - displays the maximum value reached by

          wfDlsSLotCurrentSessions since DLS was enabled, or since

          wfDlsSlotHiWaterReset was set to 2.



          wfLlcInterfaceCurrentLinks - displays the number of links on the LLC

          interface.



          wfLlcInterfaceHiWaterLinks - displays the maximum value reached by

          wfLlcInterfaceCurrentLinks since the LLC base was enabled, or since

          wfLlcInterfaceHiWaterReset was set to 2.



CR 21299: APPN MIB Parameters.

          wfAppnNodePortMaxRcvBtuSize, wfAppnNodePortMaxSendBtuSize in

          wfAppnNodePortEntry and wfAppnNodeLsMaxSendBtuSize in

          wfAppnNodeLsEntry need to be changed from 2057 to 1500 to

          accommodate the 1600 MTU size of a WAN port.



CR 30189: IP Script.

          If you run the show ip command with the circuit name option and you

          enter a circuit name that contains lowercase letters, the message

          "No Circuits found" appears.



CR 35143: DLSw.

          If a NetBIOS client attempts to connect to an Ethernet LANE server

          or a Token Ring LANE server, the router terminates operation.



CR 35268: DLSw

          When the router receives a multicast SSP NETBIOS_NQ_ex, the ARE

          experiences several errors, including an exception vector 5 - VBM

          error.



CR 35447: IP.

          The router intermittently returns a "Fragmentation Needed but DF set

          - ICMP Destination Unreachable" message with an incorrect Next-Hop

          MTU at the end of the ICMP header (low-order 16 bits).



CR 35568: Switched Services.

          When you use a dial on demand asynchronous circuit, you can only

          establish a connection two times. The third time you try to connect,

          you cannot ping across the dial on demand line.



CR 32779: QLLC.

          After you reset the LLC base in a DLS/QLLC environment, you cannot

          reestablish a session between a PC3270 client and token ring host.



CR 34159: IP.

          A router faults with a "watchdog restart" when it receives an IP

          frame that contains a TTL set to 1,IP options of 00 (no options),

          and three bytes of padding to terminate the IP header.



CR 34359: IP.

          A memory leak in BGP is causing out-of-memory faults in IP.



CR 34264: DLSw.

          Using DLSw 1795 with DSLC PU type 2.0 attached devices. When one

          router sends a flow control reset to another router, the second

          router still sends one more frame. The first router receives the

          packet and issues a Halt-DL.



CR 20945: Token Ring

          This is an enhancement request to add a parameter that allows you to

          disable token ring single station mode so that a router port that is

          the only station on a ring will not transition to down. This causes

          problems when rebooting a PC that is the only other end station on

          the token ring. A new attribute, wfTokenRingSingleStatDis, was added

          to wfTokenRingEntry.



CR 32052: TCP

          TCP does not log who closed a connection; it only logs that

          a connection was closed. 



CR 34948: DLSw.

          The log message "SSP rcv command in TCP local, 14" should be changed

          to "NetBIOS DATAFRAME Rcv" to be more intuitive to the users reading

          the log.



CR 35502: APPN.

          When you activate an APPN link station, a fault occurs

          because a buffer is freed incorrectly.
