Patch 86222-25 for Software Release 2.2.2
C613-10319-00 REV X

Features in 86222-12

Patch file details for Patch 86222-12 are listed in Table 13.

Table 13: Patch file details for Patch 86222-12.

Patch 86222-12 includes all issues resolved and enhancements released in
previous patches for Software Release 2.2.2, and the following enhancements:

If route filters existed and a RESET IP command was executed, some static
and interface routes were incorrectly removed if the filters matched. This
issue has been resolved.

DHCP occasionally caused a fatal error. Also, while an address was in the
reclaiming list, a DHCPDISCOVERY message requesting the address made
the address disappear. These issues have been resolved.

A fatal error occurred when forwarding IP packets with VRRP enabled. This
issue has been resolved.

The firewall TCP timeout values for sessions in the CLOSED and
TIMEWAIT states have been reduced. This only applies to the stateful
inspection of firewall sessions and not to the TCP module.

When a Rapier was under heavy load from software routing (e.g. after a
reboot and before the routing tables were refreshed), OSPF could take a long
time to converge. This patch gives OSPF packets higher priority to expedite
OSPF convergence.

A new feature permits hardware filtering by the Rapier family based on the
Ethernet frame type. The TYPE parameter:

TYPE={802|ETHII|SNAP}

has been added to the following commands:

ADD SWITCH L3FILTER ENTRY

ADD SWITCH L3FILTER MATCH

SET SWITCH L3FILTER ENTRY

SET SWITCH L3FILTER MATCH

SHOW SWITCH L3FILTER
