Re: Web proxy https bug?

Found a temporary work around for the https issue.

We now have to rely on Proxy auto configuration scripts to set the SSL proxy in users browsers to the upstream proxy server the MT itself uses. (in turn bypassing MT) and ONLY using MT for simple http.

Re: New Version, New Bugs - RIP Bugs

Well it could be more specifically RIP redistributing OSPF routes thats the issue with me.

i have 5 core routers on a LAN that use RIP v1.
Then one of these routers happens to be a MT unit that then inturn redistributes rip routes via ospf to our wireless network and vice versa.

New Version, New Bugs - RIP Bugs

Just upgraded to v3.8 to fix current routing and web-proxy issues.

Well now it's worse. RIP has a tendancy to only replicate some routes causing network to break.
Enabling and disabling causes routes to replicate for short while then ROS removes them once more.

Back to V3.7 and alls working.
