Fixes & Enhancements
What's new in this PTF (PTF-05) Support for the Dell PowerEdge 2650 platform This release includes support for the Dell PowerEdge 2650 platform.
What's new from PTF-04 MAC addresses for VLANs on IP Application Switch (CR15611) On the IP Application switch, VLANs may now use the first member interface's MAC address as the MAC address for the BIG-IP on that VLAN. This duplicates the functionality on the server appliance.
Status lights (CR18605) In an active-active configuration the annunciator lights now show the correct status (active or standby) on each unit.
VLAN headers for tagged interfaces (CR18623) The BIG-IP no longer inserts random QoS values into 802.1Q VLAN headers.
Extra characters in log file (CR18879) When UDP port * is enabled and UDP timeout is set to 0 (zero), extra characters are no longer entered in the log file.
RADIUS_pinger (CR19271) The RADIUS_pinger no longer intermittently marks nodes down.
Dell 2650 ESM-4 support (CR19325) (CR20100) (CR21178) (CR21179) (CR21183) (CR21208) (CR21221) (CR21222) The BIG-IP now supports the Dell 2650 platform.
bigip.conf file (CR19361) A large bigip.conf file now loads more quickly when aliasing is used for node monitors.
IMAP_pinger default folder (CR20043) If you do not specify an IMAP_pinger folder when defining a monitor based on the IMAP_monitor, the default folder "INBOX" will be used.
SNMP with wildcard virtual servers (CR20125) The snmpwalk command now returns the correct values for virtual servers when a wildcard virtual server is defined.
Support for iControl v2.1 (CR20178) This version supports iControl v2.1.
Apache+Mod_SSL on BIG-IP has a buffer overflow (CR20196) We have addressed security issues regarding an Apache+Mod_SSL buffer overflow. For more information see http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/bugtraq/2002-02/0313.html.
Windows Terminal Server (WTS) persistence (CR20241) This release includes an updated version of the BIG-IP Windows Terminal Server (WTS) persistence feature. WTS persistence provides an efficient way of load balancing traffic to and maintaining persistent connections between Windows clients and servers that are running Microsoft's Terminal Services service. When BIG-IP WTS persistence is enabled, a Windows .NET Enterprise server participating in session sharing can redirect a mis-targeted connection to the BIG-IP virtual server, instead of to another server directly. This ability to redirect connections to the BIG-IP allows the BIG-IP to assume responsibility for redirecting connections to the appropriate servers when necessary. Also, when WTS persistence is enabled on a BIG-IP and the servers in the pool participate in session sharing, the BIG-IP load balances a Terminal Services connection according to the way that the user has configured the BIG-IP for load balancing. Thus, the use of Windows .NET Enterprise servers and session sharing, combined with the BIG-IP WTS persistence feature, provides more sophisticated load balancing and more reliable reconnection when servers become disconnected. For more information about this feature, see the technical note Configuring BIG-IP Windows Terminal Server Persistence.
big3d and TCP (CR20244) TCP now functions properly with big3d on the IP Application Switch.
Obsolete VLAN commands (CR20254) Using obsolete VLAN commands no longer causes errors when loading.
Default TCP timeout for SNATs (CR20270) Loading a SNAT with a default TCP timeout no longer cause errors.
Active FTP port collision resolution (CR20417) Active FTP port collision resolution through a SNAT now functions correctly.
Unsuccessful login reporting for SSH, RSH, RCP, and FTP (CR20435) Previously the BIG-IP recorded unsuccessful login attempts for Telnet only. The /var/log/secure file now shows unsuccessful login attempts for SSH, RSH ,RCP, and FTP.
Setting port 0 timeout (CR20469) You can now set the port 0 timeout without causing SNAT c
