TCP Corruption Seen With Northstar Cards (6838180)
The Intel 82571 chip DMAs might transfer incorrect data but a valid CRC on the network and
stop responding. This lack of response results in the device hanging and getting reset.
Workaround: Disable LSO by adding the following line in the e1000g.conf le:
lso_enable=0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0;
Ensure that '0's are in line with the e1000g interface numbers.
Increased Restrictions on Cross Zone Communications
(6837033)
Tightened restrictions on interzone communications for systems running Solaris Trusted
Extensions conguration could limit noncompliant third-party applications, causing them to
fail.
Workaround: Choose one of the following workarounds:
Workaround 1: Temporarily alter the security settings. Comment out the following lines in
the /lib/svc/method/svc-labeld le:
/usr/sbin/ndd -set /dev/ip \
ip_restrict_interzone_loopback 1
Type the following command:
/usr/sbin/ndd -set /dev/ip ip_restrict_interzone_loopback 0
Although making this change would allow time to address any application programming or
application conguration issues, it is not a recommended permanent solution.
Workaround 2: Change the application or the conguration to conform to the
programming and conguration instructions for a Solaris OS with Trusted Extensions
congured. For more information, see
Chapter 5, “Interprocess Communications, in
Solaris Trusted Extensions Developer’s Guide
.
Note If correction of the application or its conguration is not feasible, please contact your Sun
Services representative.
