Release Notes
Summary
LACP not working with Juniper
EX-4200, show inactive port
channel state. System is sending
oversize (132 bytes) LACP

Resolution
The LACP process now
sends 128 byte LACP PDUs.
Interoperability with Juniper
switches is verified.
Issue in SDK MAC reset
function resolved such that
connected unit respond to
master within 1 ms. Stacking
stability verified under the
conditions where issue
occurred.
The correct VLAN name is
always displayed.
The wrong counter was
being displayed in the CLI.
The CLI commands "show
statistics port-channel" and
"show statistics <interface>"
are corrected to use the same
counter as SNMP.
The SSHD task was starving
other tasks in the system and
causing topology changes.
The SSHD task priority is
now set to the shared time
slice priority.
A field was being utilized in
the LAG hash algorithm that
could result in different hash
indices on different units of a
stack. This field (modid) has
been removed from the hash
selection algorithm.
