44 NETBUILDER SOFTWARE VERSION 11.1 RELEASE NOTES
Syntax Checking in PPP
AuthRemoteUser
Command
The ADD !<port> -PPP AuthRemoteUser command does not completely check for
syntactical correctness. If the trailing quotation mark is omitted from or misplaced
in the user’s password, the system interprets the password as the string extending
to the last non-white space character in the line or the quotation mark. For
example:
ADD !v1 -PPP ARU (“user”, “password)”
ADD !v1 -PPP ARU (“user”, “password)
Both passwords are interpreted as “password)”. No error message is generated.
UI Response Time With
Large SDLC
configuration
When NETBuilder bridge/router is configured with many SDLC PUs, SETDefault
commands may take a long time to complete. Using the Defrag command to
streamline the flash that contains the configuration files can fix the problem.
VTAM Program
Temporary Fixes
VTAM Program Temporary Fixes (PTFs) are required on a mainframe when APPN
DLU services are used. Mainframe network management (NetView) services will
not function for downstream physical units (PUs) if the PTFs are not installed.
VTAM Version 4.2 requires PTF #UW20787. VTAM Version 4.3 requires PTF
#UW20788.
Visible symptoms of this problem can be seen as a lack of network management
data for PUs that are downstream of a NETBuilder II bridge/router using APPN DLU
services. The NetView message “AAU251I AAUDRTIB 02 UNEXPECTED SENSE
CODE X'1002' ENCOUNTERED FOR TARGET=pu_name” is printed in the log file
when this problem occurs.
Web Link Boundary
Router Remote LAN Type
Display
If you use the Web Link application to display the Boundary Router Remote LAN
Type of a Leaf Node, part of the display is truncated. Web Link returns the
configured RemoteLanType and displays the following message:
Actual=To be determined
However, Web Link does not return the actual RemoteLanType. To find out the
actual RemoteLanType, access the NETBuilder bridge/router through Telnet or
through the console port and enter:
SHow !<port> -BoundaryCentralNode RemoteLanType
Web Link Firewall
Service Support
The Firewall Service AddressList and UserDefService parameters are not
configurable in the Web Link application. To configure these parameters, use
LoadConfig or the NETBuilder bridge/router user interface.
Web Link Login Support When you access the Web Link application for the first time, you are prompted to
enter a username and password. This username and password remains valid on
the NETBuilder bridge/router for two hours. Because most browers cache user
login information, it is recommended that you log out of Web Link by selecting
the “Logout” icon on the home page.
Web Link Reload Button The "Stop Reload" button on Web Link statistics screens does not toggle and if
clicked, further reloading of the statistics data is stopped. To start reloading again,
revisit/reload the page.
