|
connections
|
421
|
* Dial-out ISDN connections would present some problem due to timing
|
422
|
(PROGRESS IN) in some switches and the connection would not complete
|
423
|
* DHCP server was not sending default gateway in the message along with
|
424

IP address to the DHCP client

426
|
information

|
429
|

|
430
|
* When removing the ISDN cable while there was high data traffic could

431
|
cause the unit to reboot
|
432
|
* SNMP trap configuration with different bugs

433
|
* Admining down the interface would not drop the TCP connection
|
434
|
* Connection range allowing only analog/digital, analog/V110 and
