Issue: ASM-4688
: In NIC firmware, the X520/I350 rNDC firmware version 15.0.28 to
version 16.5.20 firmware fails to update in the firmware update logs.
Description
: This is due to a specific firmware update issue with the
X520/I350 rNDC firmware version 16.5.20. The X520/I350 rNDC firmware
may require a step-up to an intermediate version of the firmware in order to
upgrade from 15.0.28 to 16.5.20.
Resolution/Workaround
: Updating Intel X520/l350 cards with versions earlier
than 15.5.28 to 16.5.x requires a manual update to 15.5.28, prior to upgrading
to 16.5.x with ASM.

Issue: ASM-4697:
Logs messages need to be updated for firmware retry logic.
Description

updated to indicate a failed attempt occurred and a retry will follow. In some
cases a success message is logged followed by an error message.
Resolution/Workaround
: None

Resolution/Workaround

Issue: ASM-4908
: Domain name lookup from the ASM interface continues to fail even
after configuring DNS on the appliance.
Description
:
If the DNS is not configured during initial setup, the domain
name lookup fails and this negative lookup is cached in the system.
Subsequent domain name lookup attempts continue to fail even after
configuring DNS on the appliance.
Resolution/Workaround
: It is recommended to configure DNS during initial
setup. If DNS is configured after the domain lookup fails, restart the appliance
to resolve the issue.
