AT-S63 Version 4.0.0 Patch 2 Software Release Notes
PN 613-001166 Rev A 5 Allied Telesis, Inc.
The 802.1x port-based network access control feature is now fully compliant with the
following:
— Microsoft Network Access Protocol on Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, and
Windows XP Service Pack 3
— Symantec Network Access Control
The commands used to control the MAC address table have a new MODULE parameter that
lets you manage the MAC address tables on the individual switches of a stack.
Switches assigned static ID numbers continue to use stack configuration files even when the
stack stops operating and the switches revert to stand-alone units. This feature enables the
switches to retain their stack configuration settings as stand-alone units, which may lessen
the impact to network operations if the stack encounters a problem. For more information,
refer to the latest version of the AT-S63 Management Software Features Guide.
Upgrading Stand-alone AT-9400 Switches
You can upgrade a stand-alone switch from a local management session with either XMODEM
or TFTP, or from a remote Telnet, SSH, or web browser session with TFTP. For instructions,
refer to the AT-S63 documentation set.
After you have upgraded the management software on a stand-alone switch, you need to check
its stack ID number. Starting in Version 4.0.0 stand-alone switches that have a static ID number
use the stack configuration file instead of the stand-alone configuration file as their active
configuration file. In previous versions, the stack configuration file was used only when a switch
detected that it was a master switch or a backup master switch of a stack. The purpose of this
change is to make it possible for a master switch and a backup master switch to maintain their
stack configuration settings if the switches revert to stand-alone units should a stack encounter a
problem.
When a stand-alone switch that has a static ID number is upgraded to Version 4.0.0, it uses the
stack configuration file instead of the stand-alone file after it resets. This may give the impression
that it has lost all of its configuration settings. To remedy this, you must change the stack ID
number assignment from static to automatic. Stand-alone switches that have an automatic stack
ID assignment always use the stand-alone configuration file.
To check the switch’s stack ID number:
1. Log on the switch as the manager.
2. Enter the following command to display the switch’s current stack ID number:
show stack
Here is an example of the information:
3. If the Stack Mode parameter is AUTO, you are finished updating the stand-alone switch.
However, if it is set to STATIC, you need to change the Stack Mode to automatic with this
command:
set stack moduleid=
n
newmoduleid=auto
Local MAC Addr :00:30:84:00:00:03
Standalone Mode ID :1
Stack Mode :AUTO
Stack ID :1
Stack Priority :16
