Software Fixes in Releases Y.11.01 - Y.11.16

Release Y.11.10

■ 802.1X (PR_0000012568) — There is a problem with the switch login error message.

■ Management (PR_0000012818) — The switch management interface may become unre-

sponsive as a result of packet buffer depletion.

■ Config (PR_0000007953) — The config line spanning-tree instance <n> vlan <vid> is trun-

cated in some cases, causing loss of configuration after reload of the config file.

■ BPDU-Protection (PR_0000012541) — The presence of a trunk group in a switch with

STP BPDU-protection configured may trigger the switch to block the wrong port when a

BPDU is received.

■ Controlled Direction (PR_0000009818) — The switch does not properly enable or edit

the controlled direction parameter (in the config line aaa port-access controlled-direction

<in|out|both>) in the configuration.

■ CLI (PR_0000010942) — The CLI command output for show run does not display aaa port-

access <port#> when MAC-based authentication with mixed port access mode is configured.

Other show commands may also be affected.

■ SNMP (PR_0000002409) — Several supported OIDs return 'No such variable' in response

to the CLI command walkmib <OID>. Affected OIDs include the following.

1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.5.1.32 (hpSwitchAutzServicePrimaryMethod)

1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.5.1.35 (hpicfInstMonTrapEnable)

■ VLAN (PR_0000013388) — A switch with trunks not configured for VLAN <x> still accepts

tagged frames for VLAN <x> and forwards them to other ports configured for VLAN <x>.

■ 802.1X (PR_0000008780) — 802.1X does not receive expiration notifications from port

security if 802.1X is running alone (without Web or MAC Authentication).

■ 802.1X (PR_0000015662/0000011718) — When AAA Authentication with 802.1X using

PEAP is configured, the port status does not change appropriately to 802.1X, leading to client

802.1X authentication failure.

Release Y.11.10

The following problems were resolved in build Y.11.10. Not a public release.

■ RADIUS Accounting (PR_0000017732) — RADIUS accounting is incrementing the wrong

counter in response to a dropped (invalid) packet from the RADIUS server.

■ MAC Authentication (PR_0000015520) — Traffic from unauthenticated clients may be

allowed during the process of authenticating clients under heavy loads.
