Features in SB251-09
Patch SB251-09 includes all issues resolved and enhancements released in
previous patches for Software Release 2.5.1, and the following enhancements:
The ability to log MAC addresses whenever the ARP cache changes has
been added. To enable this, use the command:
ENABLE IP ARP LOG
To disable it, use the command:
DISABLE IP ARP LOG
The logging of MAC addresses is disabled by default. Use the SHOW LOG
command to view the MAC addresses that have been logged when the ARP
cache changes.
IP ARP entries were not being written to the hardware route table. This
issue has been resolved.
An open issue previously recorded under this PCR number has been
resolved. The first entry in the VLAN Tag table was being corrupted when
a valid L2MC table entry was incorrectly written to CAM entry 0. The
source of this VLAN Tag table corruption has been removed.
IPX routes that were added statically, or learned dynamically via RIP, were
only added to the switch instance that the route was learned for. IPX routes
are now added to all switch instances if the route is local or was added
statically. Dynamically learned routes are now added to any switch instance
with the same amount of CAM (or more) than the instance that the route
was learned on.
The ARP table was sometimes not updated when an ARP Reply was
received on a SwitchBlade port in response to an ARP Request. This issue has
been resolved.
Level 1 This issue will cause significant interruption to network services, and

Level 2 This issue will cause interruption to network service, however there
is a work-around.
