Revision Notes for Site Manager 2.10 Fix 1

Date:  4/25/95
Subj:  Revision Notes for Site Manager 2.10 Fix 1


Site Manager Revision 2.10/Fix 1 is a post 2.10 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. 
 

2.10/Fix 1 corrects the following problems:
=============================================================================

CR 13579: IP.
          Deleting an element from IP interface list does not delete
          corresponding BOOTP interface.

CR 12858: Frame Relay.
          Frame Relay Main Info screen displays incorrect value for
          wfFrDlcmiStatus.

CR 12615: System.
          In 2.10 release, If Site Manager is running on a machine which only
          has OpenWindow installed but not X-Windows. SM will produce a lot
          of warning messages about the XKeysymDB file, and also the remote
          display will not work correctly. It only displays a tiny, separated
          windows on the remote site.

CR 13535: Frame Relay.
          Cannot configure protocols in direct access mode until config is 
          saved. To reproduce the problem create a config from scratch in
          either dynamic, remote or local mode.  Select a sync port for
          Frame Relay and enter cancel on Select Protocols.  Click on the
          sync port and choose edit circuit and click FR Protocol/Interfaces.
          Then, click PVCS/ADD and enter in a DLCI number.  Next, by choosing
          direct access mode the Protocols field becomes highlighted.  When
          you try to add any protocol nothing happens.  However, after saving
          the config protocols in direct access mode can be configured. 
          You should not have to save the configuration file in order to
          configure protocols on a direct access mode PVC.

CR 13231: X.25.
          After Site Manager creates wfX25 base in dynamic mode, it creates
          the wfLapbPktEntry.  If this is done too quickly, the router may
          PANIC.

CR  8745: IP.
          Editing IP interface details under demand circuit configuration
          using SiteManager version 1.71 will cause the configuration module
          to complete abnormally.

CR 12483: TFTP.
          Unable to specify a filename when TFTPing in v2.00. In previous
          releases  (1.80 and back) you could select a filename and also
          specify the target filename by typing characters in at the prompt.
          Now this has been restricted to point and click, 2 problems have
          been found as a result of this;

          1)  This feature was very useful for renaming filenames at the
              time of the file transfer.

          2)  Sitemanager cannot be used for tftp'ing  Packet Capture files,
              because you cannot specify a filename which is not displayed
              on the flash (or diskette).

CR 10476: IP.
          Cannot configure OSPF or IBGP over Circuitless IP.
      
          Added support for running OSPF (NBMA 0 Priority) and IBGP over
          circuitless IP from Site Manager. Protocols can be added/deleted
          using the following methods:

          Protocol->Circuitless IP->Create choose BGP/OSPF from Protocol menu.
          Protocol->Circuitless IP->Change Protocols to delete/add OSPF/BGP
          if Circuitless Interface already exists.

CR 10339: TFTP.
          TFTP Retry Time Out param: "Enter a value between..." text
          inaccurate.

CR 10338: TFTP.
          TFTP Close Time Out param: "Enter a value between..." text
          inaccurate.

CR 10337: TFTP.
          TFTP Retransmit param: "Enter a value between..." text inaccurate.

CR  1678: Statistics Manager.
          File name for saving user defined screen to disk can't
          include '_' or '-'.

CR 13061: Switched Services.
          When a circuit is configured to be backed up, WCP will not appear
          in the Add/Delete Protocols menu. 

CR 13149: ATM.
          Attempting to add the same VPI/VCI value to a different ATMDXI
          circuit on the router will trigger Site Manager to return the error
          message stating that duplicate VPI/VCIs cannot be added.  This
          message should be generated when the user attempts to add a
          duplicate VPI/VCI on the same DXI circuit.  This should not be a
          box-wide restriction.

CR 13365: Packet Capture.
          If you configure packet capture on a Frame Relay link to capture
          data in both directions, after running pktconv to have the capture
          displayed on a sniffer all packets are displayed with source 
          address of DCE and destination of DTE.

CR 10614: System.
          Using the Events Manager via the Events Button on the Main Site
          Manager screen occasionally results in a GPF when following this
          path:

          Click on Events button --> File --> Get Current Log File.

          If this happens, exit out of Site Manager and then retry.  This
          appears to be a very intermittent problem.

CR 13011: IP.
          The change button, located in the IP interface screen in Site
          Manager, corrupts the RIP MIB, overwrites filter names and some
          other problems.  The problems were introduced by editing the file
          in local mode.

CR  9906: Files Manager.
          In Router Files Manager: Top line of file list is continually being
          defaulted as highlighted.  It not only shows up as highlighted when
          you first enter the view, but it is also being highlighted upon
          exiting various commands from the command menu.

CR 13132: Image Builder.
          PC Site Manager, directories, such as 780 rel, 800 rel 810 rel will
          not be able to be switched to via Image Builder's File Change
          release option (because there is no dot separating filename and
          extension).

CR 13128: Image Builder.
          When you have a router image up, if you select File/Change Release,
          you should be shown only those releases that your router has images
          for..  Instead you are shown, and allowed to "change to" ALL
          releases in your directories - including ones that there is no
          image for your router.  Doing so give some VERY BIZARRE results.

CR 12887: Bridge.
          If you are managing a 7.80 router with Site Manager 2.00 and want
          to use Translation Bridge, the Translation Bridge Enable field is
          not present under the Token Ring circuit;
          Protocols --> Bridge --> Interface.

CR 12684: ATM.
          When you define an ATM interface you are prompted for group mode
          protocols, but you are not put into the VCL screen. The user should
          be put into the VCL screen as they must be manually configured. 

CR 13209: Report Generator.
          Site Manager Report Generator does not work if Site Manager is
          installed in a directory other than \wf.

CR  5918: XNS.
          The XNS Host Number is padded wrong by SM. In the following
          example, the host number that was set was 444. Here is what TI
          displayed:

          wfXnsInterfaceEntry.wfXnsInterfaceMacAddress.0.0.0.204.2 = 
          x04 x44 x00 x00 x00 x00

CR 13030: IP.
          The Select Protocols window's "Cancel" button doesn' t work when
          configuring "NEW" COM and MCT1 circuits. In the process of
          configuring IP on a new COM port. When you're in the Select
          Protocols window...
          1) Select IP
          2) Select Cancel button

          The problem is here. You should be returned to the Dynamic Config
          window but instead you are put in the IP configuration window.

CR 13023: Frame Relay.
          If one deletes a FR DM PVC configured for backup, frame relay does
          not cleanup/update the appropriate SWSERV entries and does not
          unload PPP.  As a result, the connector is not freed up and the
          SWSERV entries are not up-to-date plus PPP is not deleted.

CR 12957: Statistics Manager.
          Clicking on the Description menu option in the Launch Facility
          window results in G.P.F Application Error 'WFLNCH!.EXE'.

CR 13426: Bootp.
          The BootP Interface address and forwarding interface table takes
          too long to display. 

          Getting the bootp interface list (Protocols->IP->Bootp->Relay
          Agent Interface Table) has been improved so that it is now
          substantially (order of magnitude) faster.

CR 12879: Bootp.
          Deleting an interface from the Bootp Relay Agent Table, will not
          delete corresponding entries in the Bootp Relay Agent Forwarding
          Table.

CR  6994: Filters.
          Can't define more than 40 user defined filters. Edit a config
          locally, define a bridge port and then add traffic filter on it.
          Choose User defined, size 96, Offset 0 and then add 50 ranges.
          When you save and go back to edit filter. On the list of ranges,
          some are missing and only the first 40 (or 41) are left.

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.
