HISTORY
    82001160_C

    Support for Digi Connect WAN S1X, Sprint CDMA network.

    Configurable PPP LCP keepalive probes support added.

    Added 'display arp' command to display ARP table entries.

    Longer 32 character PAP/CHAP usernames supported, up from 16.

    Enhanced 'display ppp' diagnostic output.

    Enhanced 'display mobile' output, and removed statistics duplicated in
    'display ppp.'

    Enhanced 'show versions' command to display numeric boot/POST versioning.

    Improved mobile reset handling.

    Cellular network provider primary/secondary DNS addresses displayed
    on mobile system information page, as well as via 'display ppp' command.

    General PPP PAP/CHAP authentication fixes.

    Fixed a network resource leak with the remote management client.

    Fixed issue where CPU utilization would spike to 100% when
    the SNMP service was disabled.

    Fixed issue where ARP requests under port forwarding were not
    properly formed.


    82001160_B

    A "ping" command was added to the commandline interface.

    By default, the serial port now exposes a commandline interface.
    The default terminal characteristics for console access are
    9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity.

    An enhanced display of NAT related status items are now available
    via the "display nat" CLI command.

    The IP statistics have been modified to include some NAT related
    data.

    SSHv2 services have been added.

    The mobile statistics have been enhanced to incorporate PPP
    statistics.

    PPP statistics have been enhanced to show total session time,
    session receive and transmit idle times, and bytes transmitted
    and received in the current session.  Counters for various
    disconnection events have also been added.

    A few cosmetic fixes were made to the online help for some of
    the commandline commands.  In particular, line wrapping was
    adjusted for some commands with many options, and options for
    some commands were alphabetized.

    The "uptime" display was not correctly computing the number
    of days.

    The ICMP statistics in the unit have been corrected (two of
    the standard ICMP counters were not incrementing properly).

    The ethernet statistics have been fixed -- they were often
    incrementing the interface error counter (ifInErrors)
    incorrectly.

    The "forwarding" command had an inverted interpretation of
    command parameters, resulting in IP forwarding being turned
    on when off was intended, and vice-versa.

    A fix was put in place to correct for a class of Cellular
    network disconnect events not being propagated to the firmware
    properly, possibly resulting in periods of lost Cellular
    connectivity.

    A fix was put in place to make firmware updates over HTTP on
    the Cellular network more reliable.
