12 System Firmware Version 3.2.0.6
¾ ip route Command Changed
The syntax of the ip route command has changed. The metric keyword is no longer accepted as it had no
effect. The new syntax is:
ip route ip addr subnetmask | prefix-length nextHopRtr [ preference ]
¾ distance ospf Command Changed
The distance ospf command has been changed (for both OSPFv2 and OSPFv3) to the industry standard
syntax. The new syntax is:
distance ospf {external | inter-area | intra-area } distance
¾ ip mtu Command Changed (Maximum Value Increased)
The maximum value for the ip mtu command has increased from 1500 to 9202. If not configured, the IP
MTU tracks the interface MTU.
¾ bridge address Command Changed
The following bridge address command optional parameters have been deprecated:
• delete-on-reset
• delete-on-timeout
• secure
¾ port security Command Changed
The following port security command optional parameters have been deprecated:
• forward

¾ Link Dependency Available
The Link Dependency feature which has previously only been available on modular switches is now
available on all switches. The functionality is similar to the capability available on the PCM6220,
PCM8024, and the PCM6348.
This release added an action capability to link-dependency where if a dependant port goes down, as an
action option, the group’s members come up versus also go down. This can be used as a form of link
redundancy as an alternative to using STP.
¾ ISDP Advertise/Display hostname
ISDP can now use the hostname as the Device ID instead of the Serial Number. The user needs to change
the default hostname on the switch and can verify the results via the show isdp
command.
