56 ExtremeWare 7.0 Release Notes
Clarifications, Known Behaviors, and Resolved Issues
NAT
If you change the name of a VLAN that is part of your NAT configuration, the NAT rule configuation is
not updated. NAT rule matching continues to operate correctly, but if you save or upload the
configuration, the rule is saved or uploaded incorrectly (PD2-82963707).
Vista
VLAN Ports Tagging Information Incorrect
In the Virtual LAN Configuration screen, the information for VLAN ports displays incorrect tagging
information (PD2-130140999).
Blackhole Flag Missing
The blackhole flag is missing from the FDB statistics screen (PD2-129387401).
Multicast Address Display
If you configure a routing protocol on multiple interfaces, the Vista statistics page displays the wrong
Locally Registered Multicast Address (PD2-105094265).
Configuration Statistics PSU Display
The Vista configuration statistics switch display for the BlackDiamond 6808 shows four power supplies
when only two are installed (1-D3RSP).
Closing Internet Explorer 4.0
IE 4.0 caches user login information. In some environments, this can be a security issue. As a
work-around, it is best to close the browser after logging out of the switch (1873, 1994).
Vista and RADIUS
If a switch configured for RADIUS authentication loses communication with the RADIUS server,
subsequent attempts to use the Vista Web application will take a very long time (measured in several
minutes). When communication is lost with the RADIUS server, Vista will continue to make
authentication requests for every page. Each request has a timer that will expire leading to an excessive
amount of time to bring up each page (5144).
Configuration Options with Large Number of Interfaces
When selecting a configuration applet with a large number of configured interfaces, the traversal of the
VLAN interfaces by Vista can cause a Watchdog reset due to the task utilization of Vista during the
interface data collection. It is recommended that Vista not be used for configurations with Watchdog
enabled where the Vista Configuration applet is used with a large number of VLAN interfaces.
