Release Notes

4) RADIUS server, when so configured, sends request to a secure authentication

server

5) The server in turn sends back access-challenge with state information and

challenge reply information

6) Switch receives response and displays a challenge screen to the user with

the challenge reply information and gets a response from the user

7) The user's original username and the new response are then sent to the

RADIUS server in a new access request.

8) The access request then goes through the same validation process as in

step 4 on, and may get more challenges, or access accept/reject

RADIUS Password Fallback (Q00604265):

It is now possible to access the switch using a fallback password if the RADIUS

servers are down or unavailable.

KNOWN ISSUES:

=============

If you are remotely telneting to a switch and accessing the Port Configuration

page and the network connection is lost before the telnet session times out, you

will not be able to access the Port Configuration page locally through a console

terminal. To workaround this issue, set the telnet time-out value to less than

10 minutes.

The CR fix for Q00585849 only applies to a pure stack of BPS2000's and an allied

stack (BPS2000 and BS470). In a mixed (BPS2000 and BS450), the issue is still

reproducible.

Q00691669: While staging unit replacement, can't change Target Unit with 2 opened

telent sessions.

Q00696227: While staging unit replacement, Clear Target on renumber screen works

only on the base unit.

Q00692114: IP address on the ping field only displays on unit 1 of allied stack.
