Support Notices:
WARNING. Updating to Version K.13.xx: . It is important that you update to K.13.xx from a
configuration that has not been previously converted from a pre-K.13.xx format (e.g. a K.11.xx or
K.12.xx configuration). If you have previously updated to K.13.xx and rolled back to K.12.xx to
workaround an issue, you should load a saved K.12.xx configuration to the switch and boot to it prior
to updating to K.13 again.
Performing major software updates: Before updating your software version from K.12.xx to
K.13.xx, read the recommended best practices for performing major software updates (page 7).
Restriction in number of ACL mirror destinations: The K.13.01 software introduced a new
restriction to a single ACL mirror destination. For more information, see "Restriction in number of
ACL mirror destinations (page 24) .
PIM-SM: PIM-SM users should make sure ProCurve switches that run K software should all be on
the either pre-K.13.21 or post-K.13.21 versions of software due to a bug fix in K.13.21 that changes
the way a rendezvous point is chosen.
