Modifications
The following modification is included in Version 5.34:
When port monitoring is enabled with port B as the monitor port, no packets from the ports being monitored are sent to it. Version 5.34 fixes this problem.
Current Caveats
This section lists possibly unexpected behavior by Version 5.34.
Unterminated RS-232 Cables
An RS-232 cable that is connected to a switch-but not connected to a device at the other end-might cause the switch to reset.
Upgrading from Version 5.25 to Version 5.34
If you have customized any Version 5.25 parameters, the upgrade to Version 5.34 resets these parameters to their factory default values. Reset them to your customized settings after the upgrade. (The 5.34 default values of the configurable parameters have not changed from Version 5.25.)
The following parameters return to the listed factory default values when you upgrade to Version 5.34 from 5.25.
