============================================================================= REVISION NOTES FOR SITE MANAGER VERSION 5.03 REVISION 8 ============================================================================= Site Manager Version 5.03 Revision 8 is a post 5.00 revision. This version is backwards compatible and supports the following BayRS (router software) versions: 11.03 11.02 11.01 11.00 10.01 10.0 Note: When running revisions of BayRS in conjunction with a fix version of Site Manager, be aware that there may be new MIB attributes that were added in a router revision that are not supported in a Site Manager revision. Refer to the Revision Notes for both Site Manager and BayRS software. 5.03 Revision 8 is Year 2000 Compliance Certified by Bay Networks. It has successfully passed Bay Networks Test Procedure which tests conformance to Bay Networks Year 2000 compliance definition, both of which can be found at Bay Networks Year 2000 Web site at http://www.baynetworks.com/year2000/. ============================================================================= 5.03 Revision 8 corrects the following problems: ============================================================================= CR 33127: Frame relay. Site Manager does not allow you to apply a bridge filter "forward to circuit" to a frame relay service record other than the default service record. CR 71702: PCAP. Using the network general sniffer to open a file on a router converted with Version 1.8 of the packet conversion tool, pktconv, fails with the message "Bad Record Header." CR 88721: ATM. The packet conversion tool, pktconv, does not convert PCAP files to sniffer ATC files. CR 94176: Site Manager. Site Manager will not open a configuration in local/remote mode if unrecognizable MIB instances exist in the saved config file. ============================================================================= 5.03 Revision 7 corrects the following problem: ============================================================================= CR 22893: Site Manager. PC Site Manager incorrectly allows you to set the month value to zero in the Router Date and Time window and then sets the month to 1. ============================================================================= 5.03 Revision 6 corrects the following problem: ============================================================================= CR 83757: Multiline. A WFCFG program error occurs when you delete and then add a multiline circuit using Site Manager on Windows 95. This issue does not affect UNIX platforms. ============================================================================= 5.03 Revision 5 corrects the following problems: ============================================================================= CR 32557: Switched Services. When you enter 2400 for the End Time in the Circuit Time of Day Schedule, the message "Invalid Data for End of Time" appears. Also, no help is available for the Availability Mode parameter. CR 32604: Site Manager. This is an enhancement request to make the Add Circuit window on the PC appear the same as that on UNIX. On UNIX, circuits that you can select are highlighted and the ones you cannot select are grayed out. On the PC, the circuits that you can select are highlighted and the ones you cannot select are hidden. CR 33614: SDLC. When you configure an SDLC circuit using dynamic mode, the two following MIB attributes in the wfSdlcLSAdminEntry MIB do not get updated: wfSdlcLSAdminEntry.wfSdlcLSAdminIfIndex.2.64 = 0 wfSdlcLSAdminEntry.wfSdlcLSAdminAddress.2.64 = 0 As a result, the SDLC circuit never comes up. CR 33679: IP. Site Manager incorrectly allows you to configure HP Probe as an ARP type on sync media. HP probe is supported on Ethernet only. CR 34736: PPP. Site Manager causes a general protection fault on a DOS platform when you change the PPP MRU of a dial circuit in local mode only and then save the configuration file. CR 35732: Switched Services. The outbound phone number attributes wfSwservOutPhoneNumAggrChanCnt and wfSwservOutPhoneNumChannelType in wfSwservOutPhoneNumEntry are being set with incorrect values by Site Manager resulting in an invalid configuration file. CR 72741: IP/OSPF. When you set OSPF or IP global variables in Site Manager/Windows 95 causes SNMP sets to transmit continuously. You must restart Windows 95 to recover from this condition. CR 74522: SNMP. If a hostname in a well-known connections list is no longer able to be resolved (e.g., the router hostname is changed or is no longer present), Site Manager generates an SNMP request directed to a BROADCAST address (destination MAC=FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF and destination IP=255.255.255.255). The broadcasts are sent each time you click on the unresolved hostname in the well-known connections list. This is a problem because other devices on the same LAN receive the broadcast and, if they use different communities than the router, generate authentication traps back to their trap receivers. CR 79896: Site Manager. When you configure a router redundancy hot standby member configuration and save it using the Save As option, Site Manager displays the Primary Save and Secondary Save buttons. This might cause confusion because the user does not require a primary or a secondary configuration file. CR 80826: Site Manager. This is an enhancement request to increase the number of configuration files displayed in Site Manager on UNIX. Currently, when you go to Tools > Configuration Manager > Local File, the Open Configuration File window does not display all files in a directory if the total is greater than 500. This limit has been increased to 2,048. CR 81675: Site Manager. Site Manager incorrectly creates an interface redundancy instance on a circuit when you select Change Lines to change the circuit name. CR 81726: Traffic Filters. Site Manager does not allow you to delete traffic filters. CR 82245: Report Generator. Attempting to run smcfgrpt from the command line in Report Generator produces a core dump at the end of the program. This problem does not occur when you start Report Generator in Site Manager. CR 82470: Report Generator. In the output produced by Report Generator, the display format of wfIpRipAnnounceNetworks and wfIpRipAcceptNetworks is inconsistent (wfRipAnnounceNetworks is displayed in hex only). Both entries should be displayed in both dotted decimal and hexadecimal formats. Without the dotted decimal format, you must perform the conversion manually. CR 82695: IP. Before SNMP traffic starts, in order to validate the router IP address passed to the Configuration Manager, a test applies the subnet mask to the specified router IP address. The test checks whether the IP address is misconfigured to be a broadcast or network address (all ones or all zeros), but it applies the subnet mask of the Site Manager workstation against the IP address of the router. This test would be valid if the router and the Site Manager station were on the same subnet, but problems arise if they are on different subnets. CR 82907: Site Manager. For Site Manager running on UNIX systems, a hard-coded limit prevents dynamic configuration from launching if the number of local interfaces on the UNIX system exceeds eight. When this occurs, the message "Unable to run configuration module. (E1602)" displays. This problem affects only dynamic configuration mode launched against router connection entries that are IP addresses rather than resolvable hostnames. Other configuration modes (remote file, local file) are not affected. CR 84308: ISDN. Site Manager does not allow you to configure a dial backup line. The PhoneOut menu also lists ISDN as the only choice under Dial Type. CR 84371: RIP. Site Manager incorrectly allows the entry of a noncontiguous subnet mask when defining a RIP Accept Policy filter on Windows NT and UNIX platforms. For releases prior to 11.03/3, such an entry corrupts the LSDB and resets the OSPF throughout the network. ============================================================================= 5.03 Revision 4 corrects the following problems: ============================================================================= CR 71031: BGP. In order for BGP Routes to be exported to the OSPF Link State Data Base, the BGP Intra-AS parameter must be set to Disabled. By default, this parameter is set to Enabled. If you disable this parameter dynamically, Site Manager generates multiple bus errors and a watchdog. CR 75254: SNMP When you click on OK from the Edit Adapter Module 2, 56/64K DUS CSU Parameters window, Site Manager sets the attribute wfSyncExternalClkSpeed to the value determined by the Option Mode parameter, even if the attributes value has not changed. CR 75303: X.25 When you add an X.25/PTOP line, the Connection ID parameter defaults to 0. The range of valid values is from 1 to 255. CR 75341: Sync. When you select the Values button for the Sync B Channel Override parameter, the message "Sorry, No additional information available" appears. The valid values are BCHANNEL1, BCHANNEL2, Default, and FLOATINGB. CR 75561: IP. When you reorder a small traffic filter, in ascending or descending order, past a large traffic filter with many IP addresses within the same filter, a memory fault condition occurs on the router. In some cases, Site Manager unloads IP from the slot. CR 75894: Protocol Priority. When you apply a new Protocol Priority outbound filter, Configuration Manager faults and then terminates. The fault occurs on the PC only. CR 76000: ISDN. When you configure a MCT-1 port for PRI and you enable RFC 1661 compliance, if you change the MRU size, the information message "Please make sure that the SYNC MTU is >= PPP MRU + 56 bytes" appears for each channel on the MCT-1 port. The message should only appear once. CR 78156: Source Route Bridge. If you configure a sync interface for source route bridging, the Source Routing Interfaces window from the Protocols pull-down menu option on the Frame Relay Service List window shows all 0s for the sync interface. CR 78722: IPX. If you enter a valid DLCI into the IPX adjacent host definition, Site Manager displays an error message, indicating that you have entered an incorrect number range or format. ============================================================================= 5.03 Revision 3 corrects the following problems: ============================================================================= CR 28400: Router Files Manager. If you enter an invalid community name in the Router Files Manager window, Site Manager displays the error message "Unable to reach Router." When you click on OK, the same message appears again. CR 34891: IP. After you configure 56 RIP Accept Policy Filters, a GPF error occurs on the PC, or a segmentation fault occurs on the UNIX workstation. CR 35695: Site Manager. When you attempt to delete an SNMP community, the message "SNMP Set Error" appears. When you press OK or Cancel to exit the message, the message reappears. CR 71347: DLSw. When you configure an 802.5 service record for DLS/LLC/SRB, Site Manager incorrectly sets the DLS DLC type (wfDlsInterfaceEntry. wfDlsInterfaceDlcType) to 3 (learning bridge); the DLS DLC type should be set to 2 (source route). CR 72071: FDDI. When you change a slot containing an FDDI module to Empty Slot, Site Manager does not delete the following enhanced FDDI MIB objects from the configuration file: wfFddiSmtExtEntry, wfFddiSmtActionEntry, wfFddiMacExtEntry, wfFddiPathExtEntry, wfFddiPortExtEntry, and wfFddiPortActionEntry. CR 72689: Frame Relay. The IFTF (Inter Frame Time Fill) must be set to "7E" when you configure Frame Relay on a BRI Leased Line and use a Japanese NTT Frame Relay network. This requires setting the MIB wfSyncEntry.wfSyncForceIFTF to 2. Added the ability to set this MIB attribute via Site Manager. CR 73066: TCP. The delete confirmation windows for Telnet server and Telnet client contain a typo. CR 73309: BGP. Site Manager does not allow you to change the value for the "Route Preference" parameter in a BGP4 accept policy. CR 73799: LLC. The LLC circuit option under the Circuit Definition window is grayed out after you select the LLC2 circuit option from the LLC circuit pull-down menu. CR 75049: IP. When you delete BGP-3 from a configuration, Site Manager deletes all the IBGP peers. ============================================================================= 5.03 Revision 1 corrects the following problems: ============================================================================= CR 30180: IP. When you list the Announce Policy Filters, Site Manager duplicates the entries. CR 33513: Events Manager. The events log displays the incorrect date for any year before the leap year. CR 33829: Logical Lines. If you UNSELECT the MCT card from the "Add Circuit" window, Site Manager does not allow you to re-select it. CR 34872: PPP. SYNC MTU must be at least 56 bytes greater than PPP MRU. CR 34913: Source Route Bridge. After you configure source route bridge on a dial on demand circuit, the source route interface window displays zeroes in all fields for that circuit. CR 34951: Static Routes. If you attempt to configure a subnetted static route, such as 12.12.12.0/255.255.255.0 or 192.32.37.0/255.25.255.240, Site Manager displays the message "IP Address/Subnet Mask are misconfigured" and does not add the route. Site Manager does allow you to add networks with a natural mask, such as 12.0.0.0/255.0.0.0. CR 35142: OSPF. When you change any field in the "Edit OSPF Global Parameters" window, Site Manager resets the slot mask, causing OSPF to recycle. CR 35251: Site Manager. Defaults for MIBs are read from cdl-generated ASCII output files. Default values for MIBs of type GAUGE are represented as signed numbers. Site Manager reads type INTEGER values as long unsigned numbers. CR 35348: Router Redundancy. Clicking on "Edit Lines" for ethernet and 100Base-T router redundant interfaces brings up the 100Mb/s CSMA/CD parameters window, which is incorrect. Site Manager should bring up the Edit CSMA/CD parameters window. If you click on OK, Site Manager displays the following message: "ERROR: Invalid data entered for Interface Line Speed". To exit the window, you must click on Cancel or enter an incorrect value for line speed. CR 35354: PPP. For a dial backup circuit, if you enable the "RFC1661 Compliance" field in the "PPP Line List" window, wfSwservOptsRfc1661Compliance must be set to the same value as wfPppLineRfc1661Compliance internally. CR 35580: LLC2 traffic filters Site Manager lets you create LLC2 traffic filters under the wrong circuit number. If you create an LLC2 traffic filter by selecting LLC Circuit > LLC2 Circuit and then Protocols > LLC2 Traffic filters, the filter will not work because Site Manager uses a circuit number that is different from the number assigned to this interface. CR 35692: SNMP. When running Configuration Manager in dynamic mode, the wfProtocols MIB gets set to the value to which it is already set. The set does not affect service. CR 35797: BGP. Although the "Multi hop EBGP connection" parameter is set to enabled, you cannot configure BGP peers that are not on the same subnet. CR 35899: BGP. When you create a BGP peer to a circuitless IP address, invalid and/ or multiple instances of wfCircuitNameEntry are created. CR 35936: IP. When you use a circuitless IP address with an instance number of 1 (under wfCircuitNameEntry), Site Manager can cause the router to unload and reload certain protocols. CR 72781: FireWall. The FireWall product was introduced in 11.02/Rev 2. When you use Site Manager to connect to a router that is running a release earlier than 11.02/Rev 2, the FireWall menu should be unavailable. |
