1. 290 Module STP SWI Level 2 Previously the forwarding database was flushed instead of being aged out when an STP topology change notification was received This issue has been resolved PCR number 40185 CR00002662 Module STP Level 2 Previously when a port or ports was moved from one VLAN to another the switch would reset both STP RSTP instances that control the VLANs This behaviour is now changed to only reset the STP process on the STP instance that the port s is joining The switch will now also retain the port s edge port setting during the moving process This issue has been resolved CR00004964 Module CORE PSS QOS SWI Level 2 SWMxX A switch lock up could occur after enabling the use of QoS Counters via the command SET SWITCH ENHANCEDMODE QOSCOUNTERS This issue has been resolved CR00005983 Module IPNAT Level 2 When IP NAT was configured a restart could occur if a TCP RST packet was received with flags in addition to ACK This issue has been resolved PCR number 40728 CR00006521 Module IPv6 Level 2 The SET IPV6 MLD command was not displaying the correct parameters on the command line This issue has been resolved CR00006554 Module PPP Level 2 PPP TCP mss clamping was always fixing the mss to 1372 This issue is now fixed so that if the MTU or MRU is less than 1472 then mss clamping clamps the mss to the correct size This issue has been resolved CR00006769 Module PPP2.

3. MX Level 1 SWCX SW56 A heavy processor load could lead to queuing RSTP BPDUs which in turn could lead to even more processor load resulting in more queued BPDUs This issue has been resolved by improving the efficiency in the interaction between RSTP TCN BPDUs and the hardware tables This issue has been resolved PCR number 40672 CR00006609 Module LB Level 1 When failover occurred between a redundant pair of Load Balancing devices host ARP caches were not updated with the new Master s MAC address thus causing the hosts to lose connectivity until their ARP caches timed out the stale entry This issue has been resolved No PCR number CR00007034 Module Firewall Level 1 A reboot could occur while ageing out Firewall sessions when the device was under heavy load and had many active Firewall sessions This issue has been resolved No PCR number Software Maintenance Release note for Software Release 2 7 3 C613 10443 00 REV A Version 89273 02 for AT 8900 and AT 9900 series switches 3 CR00007695 Module PPP Level 1 When either the Firewall was enabled or multiple L2TP tunnels were configured and a default route existed over an L2TP tunnel it was possible for an infinite internal packet loop to be created when a packet was sent over the L2TP tunnel after the underlying interface route to the remote IP had gone down This caused a reboot to occur This issue has been resolved No PCR number Level 2 CR00002
