HP PCI FDDI/9000 Release Notes for HP-UX 11.0 Patches and Fixes for this Version Patches and Fixes for this Version The following are the fixes included in this version. Fixes 1 through 4 are new for this release. All the fixes are also available in PHNE_17517. For more information about which AR or patch release contains which fix, see Table 1-1 later in this section. 1. The patch PHNE_17517 added support for hdrin / hdrout / loopback NetTL tracing potential. 2. Fixed the interface hang on workstations while transmitting UDP packets. 3. Changed the T_Req default to 165 ms. 4. Added command line option support to change T_Req and T_Notify times. 5. Added a reset mechanism to recover from transmit DMA time-out, command response time-out or card halt events. 6. Added a new option in the fddipciadmin command to allow the T_Req time and T_Notify time to be changed. 7. Fixed the fddipciadmin command to correctly display multicast addresses. 8. Restored the multicast, promiscuous and MAC address setting on the card after a card reset occurred due to an error recovery or user command. 9. When installed in the same EPIC slots with one or more Gigabit Ethernet, Token Ring, ATM, X.25, or Hyperfabric cards, the system may fail to boot. 10. The "lanadmin -R" command caused the MTU size to be set to a random number. 11. Added performance enhancement for TPC-C. 12. Added SAP promiscuous filtering for unbound stream. 13. System panic with "Global error on EPIC device, Driver fddi4". The panic was due to the use of an already unmapped PCI address. 14. WSIO dependency is missing. On a system without the Core LAN installed, installing PCI FDDI would fail. Chapter 1 11
