Subj:  Revision Notes for Site Manager 2.11 Fix 1


Site Manager Revision 2.11/Fix 1 is a post 2.11 revision.  This version 
is backwards compatible and supports the following router versions:

      8.10
      8.01
      7.80  
      7.71

Note: Please be aware of the following when running fix versions of 
      Router software in conjunction with a fix version of Site Manager.
      There may be new MIB attributes which were added in a Router fix
      revision which are not supported in a Site Manager fix revision.  
      Please refer to the fix revision notes for both Site Manager 
      and Router software. 

2.11 Fix 1 corrects the following problems:
=============================================================================

CR 13931: System.
          As long as the Ping from Router window is open, the user is unable
          to execute other Site Manager functions such as changing router
          connections.  The user must exit from the Ping from Router window
          before performing other tasks.

CR 12305: Bridge.
   13259: No default value for Spanning Tree MAC address.

          The Spanning Tree MAC Address will now be learned during the boot
          up time as in the dynamic mode if no values are specified.

CR 10305: Bridge.
   12274: Local/Remote config should provide a default for SPAN Bridge
          Priority.

          The Bridge priority will now be defaulted to 128.

CR 15389: BGP4.
          BGP4 Route Policies do not support AS_PATH Pattern Matching as
          is required by Internet Provider market.

          A new field "AS Pattern" has been added to BGP4AcceptPolicyFilters
          and BGP4AnnouncePolicyFilters screens.

CR 15675: IP.
          When configuring IP over PPP the default encapsulation value
          is incorrectly set as 0 when it should be Ethernet.

CR 15516: BGP.
          Configuring BGP over X.25 DDN and the BGP validation routine for
          the BGP Peer dialog says "BGP ID IP address must be on the same
          network as Local IP Interface", even though the Local Peer address
          was a local IP address.

CR 13932: Bridge.
          SM does not allow the enabling of XB spanning tree. When Bridge, 
          Translation Bridge, Source Routing, and Spanning Tree are 
          configured on a token ring interface 
          wfBrStpInterfaceTranslationDisable is not being enabled.  No user
          configurable parameter is needed for 
          wfBrStpInterfaceTranslationDisable.  The system will automatically
          configure this parameter when the above protocols are configured.

CR 14810: Config Manager.
          Selecting a none configuration file from Local Configuration Mgr
          results in GPF error.

CR 13541: OSPF.
          When displaying the OSPF Interface Statistic screen Point to
          Multipoint interfaces are shown as type '4' instead of an acsii
          description such as 'Pt to Mpt'.

CR 13478: IP.
          Can only add 61 ranges to IP Traffic Filter. Up to 61 ranges for
          an IP Traffic Filter that is configured to drop based on IP source
          address works.  If you add a 62nd range, and then choose "Save and
          Exit", when you are back at the main Traffic Filter Screen, there
          are no traffic filter entries listed.

CR 14406: Filters.
          Deleting and then adding bridge filters with large ranges can cause
          Tag Violation slot resets.

CR 14226: Sync Passthru.
          Router adds 0's to the right of whatever address was entered for
          Sync Passthru MAC addresses. SM should require the user to enter
          a 12 digit mac address for sync passthru mac addresses.

CR 14951: X.25.
          In rel 8.11 the T1 timer is being triggered at 300msec, regardless
          of the configuration.  The SM default is changed from 3 sec to 30
          sec, which is not the standard default (3 sec. is recommanded).

CR 14501: DECnet.
          DECnet IV MAC Address is not Correct on Token_Ring Interface.

CR 14935: Filters.
          The Site Manager template screen for filter definition will never
          list more than 100 entries. If a user defines more than 100
          templates they will be saved to the filter template file, but the
          oldest templates will not be accessible since they are not loaded
          into the templates window. This limit has been increased to 500.

CR 14731: IPX.
          PC Site Manager will GPF when the IPXWAN configuration window
          is exited.

CR 13929: Files Manager.
          A non-descriptive error message displayed from SM when there is not
          enough contiguous space available on the target volume.

CR 14789: Files Manager.
          Copying Router files to unknown volume result in WFRFS.EXE general
          protection error.

CR 13540: PPP.
          PC SM GPFs when attempting to define a PPP circuit during
          dyanamic config.

Notes for Backward Compatibility:
=================================
 
When using Site Manager to create a new local configuration file for a
router running a previous version, you need to ensure the new configuration
file has the appropriate MIB stamp.  To do this, TFTP the ti.cfg from a
router running the MIB version for which you are creating the local
configuration file.  In local mode edit the ti.cfg, using it as a template
to begin your local configuration file.  In most cases this will
automatically ensure you have the correct MIB stamp.

Note one exception to the above scheme. The ti.cfg which shipped with
version 7.57 of the router has an incorrect MIB stamp(CR7409).  If a 7.57
ti.cfg is the version you are using, first boot the router with the
ti.cfg and then save the file.  This will update ti.cfg with the
appropriate MIB stamp.
