Seems stable here, save one SNMP-related memory leak in the ARC code (specific to walking a particular section of the tree; real obscure).
Hmmm... What OID tickles it? We run lots of monitoring on things that may or may not be obscure every 10 minutes.
They're all new OIDs that weren't in 4.2.32. The one in particular that tripped me up is the 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.2.1.46.1.6 tree, or something else in that area (if not .1.6, then .1.something).
We have not had any of the spontaneous reboots others have mentioned here.
And I think several people hit on why here: it has to do with the telnet client list table. We don't use that feature; we let access lists on our routers do that sort of thing.
Can anyone comment on any of these issues in the new code?
-the quads going into busy-out under 4.2.32 - fixed?
Haven't run into that one. We had one Quad go out to lunch last week, but that's the first time in over a year I've seen that happen.
-OSPF - trust it?
No big difference that I can tell. Search the mailing list archives and you'll see many many many posts about one particular problem I had, with OSPF getting confused about subnet masks in a particular case. MR12019 is 3Com's bug id for it. This wasn't fixed during the beta, or in the 5.0.9 release, though I was told it was "very close". Anyway, I got tired of waiting for a fix, so I gave up and worked around it by moving my ARCs to another subnet. Modulo that little problem, OSPF works fine for us. I didn't have much luck setting up authenticated OSPF, but I'll admit I didn't try very hard. :) I'm going to give it another crack in the next month or two.
