64 ExtremeWare 7.0 Release Notes
Clarifications, Known Behaviors, and Resolved Issues
The EAPS master now sends an IGMP query upon link failure, if you configure the EAPS master
interface with an IP address on the same protected VLAN as the transit node (PD2-100679119,
PD2-91657073, PD2-112059601).
A rapid link transition up, down, then up again on an EAPS transit switch no longer causes traffic
disruption (PD2-102929324).
FDB
IP FDB aging is now disabled by default (PD2-93733656).
IP FDB entries are now correctly cleared when a new indirect LSP comes up (PD2-97156301).
Aging 250,000 or more IP FDB entries no longer consistently uses over 50% of the CPU (PD2-93733654).
If 256,000 or more FDB entries are injected into the switch and then you create a new VLAN, that
VLAN might now correctly has an FDB entry (PD2-97137701).
Using the
clear FDB command on switch that has over 3,000 VLANs assigned to all ports no longer
triggers a watchdog reboot if 50,000 or more FDB entries are present on one of the VLANs
(PD2-69816950).
BGP
When exporting static and direct routes, the BGP origin is now correctly incomplete (PD2-92668201).
If the number of routes to be processed for next hop changes is a multiple of 5000 and no other BGP
activity causes BGP to release the CPU, next hop change processing no longer re-starts after completion.
(PD2-95403801).
OSPF
OSPF now recalculates the cost of external routes correctly when a redistribution from static to OSPF is
deleted and re-inserted (PD2-64596001).
In an environment with a large number of IPFDB entries associated with OSPF routes/default route, an
OSPF change that caused an SPF calculation no longer consumes significant CPU cycles, which caused
the system to become unresponsive for several minutes (PD2-99111708).
Spanning Tree
When you configure STP with 4,000 VLANs, an STP topology change no longer triggers a watchdog
reboot due to the amount of time required to complete aging of the FDB entries for the VLANs
(PD2-80183102).
ESRP
A link transition on a redundant switch no longer causes a momentary ESRP dual master situation
(PD2-95068802).
Failover priority 0 now operates correctly (PD2-68325201).
