Lowercase characters in IPv6 address While connected to the radio via USB, an IPv6 address with lowercase characters was not accepted. ZS4200 version 9.0.9.0 solves this issue. Prefix “2001:” in IPv6 address It was not possible to configure a IPv6 address starting with “2001:” with ZS4200 version 9.0.8.0 (e.g. an address “2001:1::2” was reduced to “1::2”). ZS4200 version 9.0.9.0 solves this issue. Release Notes for ZS4200 Software Release 9.0.9.0, 6174.7920.04 (Version 1.0) 6 R&S ZS4200 2.4 Known Issues Invalid configuration of hostname not reported to user If the ZS4200 is connected via LAN to the radio and the user tries to apply an invalid setting to the parameter hostname, then ZS4200 fails to report the error. The radio, however, internally rejects the setting. The user can find out whether a setting has been applied by reading out the radio setting after changing configuration. Note that this problem does not show up if ZS4200 is connected via USB interface. Display problem if parameter “Installation Info” or “Location Info” contains special character semicolon If the configuration parameter “Installation Info” or “Location Info” are configured by remote management system via GB2PP/SNMP to a value which contains the special character semicolon (“;”), the ZS4200 is not able to display the settings table anymore. Workaround: User has to reconfigure subject parameter via remote management system to a value which does not contain the special character semicolon. Note that this problem does not show up if subject parameter are configured via ZS4200. Parameter validation of ZS4200 prevents the usage of special character semicolon.
