N/A Memory problems occurred when two flash cards were installed.
N/A A write error occurred when loading code to flash.
N/A User names could be reported inaccurately in SNMP accounting events.
N/A TCP-clear sessions could generate extra SNMP name or service change

N/A Writing a T1 or E1 profile with invalid index could generate a
fatal-error 1.
N/A User names were sometimes incorrect in RADIUS accounting packets.
N/A RADIUS accounting ON and OFF packets sometimes timed out.
N/A CLID and DNIS were not contained in some syslog messages.
N/A SNMP accounting progress codes and disconnect reasons were incorrect
for immediate TCP sessions.
N/A Ethernet card failed to come up under certain conditions.
N/A PPP and immediate TCP clear sessions invoked from the terminal
server now use memory more efficiently.
N/A ICMP redirects were not sent in some instances.
N/A VJ compression modem sessions now function with a smaller number of

N/A Fatal Error 102 sometimes occurred on 56K-modem cards.
N/A Ethernet, HDLC, and modem cards sometimes crashed.
N/A Out-of-memory error on the shelf-controller has been fixed.

N/A Ethernet card could sometimes generate a Fatal Error 8.
N/A Rockwell K56 1.140 code fixes abnormal disconnects on K56 modems.
N/A Coredump fixes.
N/A T-Online: The MAX TNT can now dialout MP+ calls when T-Online is
enabled.
N/A T-Online: Calling DTPT Connection profile made LAN inaccessible.
N/A T-Online: Problem 503 has been fixed.
N/A T-Online: Problem 30965 has been fixed.
N/A Potential memory leaks were fixed.
N/A Slot cards reset when trying to log Warning 104.
N/A Ethernet slot card crashed when Proxy ARP was enabled.
N/A Multi-shelf system couldn't load more than 16 slot card simultaneously.
N/A RADIUS authentication for dialins failed after sustained
dialin/dialout traffic.
N/A Routes learned from RADIUS showed up twice in the routing table.
Enhancements in 1.3Ap13:
* Support for Rockwell K56 code version 1.140.
* Distinct ID sequences for RADIUS authentication and accounting
* Unique RADIUS accounting IDs based on source port number
* Command for displaying a WAN session's data
* Support for 64K and 56K calls over channels using R2 signaling
* Slot card and system uptime information
* Terminal server login timeout
* Fatal crash information on console
* Multiple NFAS groups on T1 and T3 cards
* MP and MP+ bundled channels span HDLC cards and shelves
Known problem in 1.3Ap13:
When a single dial-in session uses more than four channels and VJ
compression is enabled, throughput drops off rapidly.
