Summary of enhancements in release 02.6.00 (Continued)
Description
Beginning with release 0 2.6.00, Digital Optical
Monitoring will only support newly qualified
1Gigabit optics. Digital Optical Monitoring for
previous 1Gigabit optics that do not include "OM"
after the model numbers will not be able to use this
feature.
BigIron RX provides support for Bidirectional
Forwarding Detection (BFD) in Version 02.6.00 of
the Multi-Service IronWare software.
In a dynamic or keep-alive LAG, a port's timeout can
be configured as short or long
This new feature allows you to rate-limit ARP traffic
that is destined for CPU of the BigIron RX router.
Non-Brocade or non-VSRP aware devices connected
to a VSRP master can now quickly switch over to the
new master when a VSRP failover occurs.
Beginning with release 02.6.00 of the Multi-Service
IronWare software, all trunking and link aggegation
configuration has been revamped and placed under
a single interface. This new interface allows you to
configure either of the previously supported LAG
types: Static LAGs and Dynamic LAGs as well as the
new "Keep Alive" LAGs.
The new LAG configuration procedures supersede
the previous configurations procedures for Trunks
and Dynamic Link Aggregation.
Beginning with release 02.6.00, you can define
multicast boundaries on a per VLAN basis.
