I've had some quite odd problems with IPv6 with 12.2(58)SE1. Upon loading the image, all IPv4 worked OK, but my IPv6 addresses on loopbacks were there, but non functional. Routes for them were propagated throughout OSPFv3 but I wasn't able to ping them from anything other than the local router itself where the loopback was configured. But yet I was able to successfully ping and trace to other IPv6 addresses on VLAN interfaces on the switch itself. There was also some route looping going on which was evident in traceroutes to the loopbacks on those devices which were exhibiting the problem, although the (show ip) route tables looked fine.

I wondered if this was some sort of mis-programming or bug within the forwarding tables or something.......

What's really odd is that I upgraded four units, and two exhibited this problem whereas two others didn't. So it wasn't just a one off, and didn't come good by reloading a second time. The configs were all similar, ones that worked were a 3750E, 3560G and one that failed was a 3560-V2 (the other one that failed I can't recall right now).

After spending an hour trying to work out what was going on and if I could work around it, I rolled those two offenders back to 12.2(55)SE3 and it all came good again.

Given the heap of new features in 12.2(58)SE (some very welcome, especially the WCCP ACL deny ability fixed finally) I wasn't overly surprised to be finding a few glitches though...

Doesn't seem like much difference between 12.2(58)SE and 15.0(1)SE in
terms of either features or bug fixes, so if you've taken the (brave)
plunge and are already running 12.2(58)SE it looks like a fairly minor
upgrade.

Is something special implied in the "(brave)" part? Is there some known
problem with 12.2(58) by any chance? We've started upgrading here and
there and have yet to see any problems.

Or is it just because it's so very new? :-)
