FYI I pushed new fixes again to the Nortel modules moments ago. I don't believe it affects all Nortel's but only a strict model / firmware combination. The real problem is that the issue is silent meaning that the logs will say that it authorized the MAC, report no error but it will have failed.
If you have a problem with the Nortel's consider running from our daily snapshot repository or applying the patch at: http://mtn.inverse.ca/revision/info/314e131c02b6fb3812d2b2dfc17231458723a7ea The issue has been fixed but there was also added error-reporting. Here's a description of the problem (as in the module's BUGS AND LIMITATION): Hard to predict OIDs seen on some variants We faced issues where some switches (ie ERS2500) insisted on having a board index of 1 when adding a MAC to the security table although for most other operations the board index was 0. Our attempted fix is to always consider the board index to start with 1 on the operations touching secuirty status (isPortSecurity and authorizeMAC). Be aware of that if you start to see MAC authorization failures and report the problem to us, we might have to do a per firmware or per device implementation instead.
