HP9000 PCI FDDI Release Note - 10.20 Patches and Fixes in This Version Patches and Fixes in This Version Fixes for the following symptoms are included in this version. Fixes one through four are for the new release, 10.20.16. See Table 3-1 at the end of this section for additional information regarding ARs or patch releases and the specific fixes they contain. 1. Network management subagent for PCI FDDI is not available. 2. Details of unsolicited events are not available for the PCI FDDI Driver. 3. Messages similar to the following are seen either on the system console or in the system log file (/var/adm/syslog.log, by default) on A and B class systems with non-cache=coherent I/O which have the PCI FDDI card and driver installed: vmunix: fddi4_process_cmd_rsp: cmd 0 status lcee90 4. When the interface is reset, the multicast address and promiscuous level set in the card will be lost. The interface will not receive the packets designated for the multicast address and packets corresponding to the promiscuous level. 5. A system with the FDDI PCI product installed (from the June 2000 application release) may panic with a 'data memory protection fault' when an application running sustained and heavy loop-back traffic over the FDDI PCI interface is closed. The loop-back packets have a non-SNAP destination Service Access Point (SAP), i.e. a destination SAP that is not equal to 0xAA. 6. The driver has been enhanced to support LAN Monitor. 7. Enhancements to support the "Clear Statistics" option of the lanadmin command have been added. 8. A broadcast storm problem, which occurred when two subnets were on the same physical LAN, has been fixed. 9. Support to communicate link up/down events to upper layers has been added. 10. Connection oriented (DLPI T2) failure problem has been fixed. This requires the following LAN cumulative patches: • For the 700 model: PHNE_21215 • For the 800 model: PHNE_21216 or subsequent patches to be installed. 11. Support for A-Class servers has been added. 16
