9032277-04 Software Superseded by CS3/MMS3
5-73
Patches Issued Since the CS2/MMS2 Release
before it got through any of the application association processes.
When the attribute read failed (on a device that didn't have the
attribute), the association process was bypassed altogether, and the
model state never reached the active state.
The second issue was similar. The SS2000 devices in question did not
have a DEVICE_MDL_HANDLE attribute (again, because they were
not derived from MicroLanModule). The appropriate IH tried to
register for a change on this attribute, but when it saw the attribute
didn't exist, the error code was set to FAILURE and the IH never got
attached to the model. As a result, again, the proper model states
were never written to as CS_MODEL_ACTIVE.
The resolution to the first part was to create a new PORTS_STATE
attribute at the SS8H level so that all SS2000 devices picked up this
attribute. The configuration process could then continue as normal.
The second issue was solved by not setting the error condition for the
IH to FAILURE when it saw the DEVICE_MDL_HANDLE attribute
did not exist.

The problem was that a customer requested the ability to enable ports
on the Synoptics 3000 after they have been partitioned due to
LattisSecure. They had their hubs configured using this feature and
when a user moved (i.e. PC was replaced with a new one), the mac
address heard on the port of the Synoptics 3000 changed.
LattisSecure caused the port to partition. When bringing up the
SynOptics Ethernet Port Configuration View, there was a menu to
change the state of the port back to enable. This pick did reset the
port back to enable, but since the offending mac address was still
connected the port partitions when the next packet was not sent.
The resolution was add the proper attributes to assist changing the
state of the port for the Synoptics Port Configuration View. A test was
run to partition a port when a non-secure MAC came through and it
was successful in enabling the port after these proper attributes were
added to the Synoptics Port Configuration View. The attribute name
is: s3EnetPortAuthStatus. The user will have to set the
s3EnetPortAuthStatus to off. By doing this the user will be able to
successfully change the state of the port on partition when a non-
secure MAC comes through. Also, security features were added to the
