Welcome to CDRouter version 3.2!

What's new since version 3.1:


  New License Management from Buddy Command-line
  ----------------------------------------------

  * You can now update your CDRouter license file right from the buddy
    command-line. The -update-license option will contact the QA Cafe
    license server and download the latest copy of the license. This is
    useful for updating the license after renewing support or
    enabling any add-on modules such as BuddyWeb or CDRouter-IKE.

    To update your license, run buddy -update-license

    Example:

    # buddy -update-license



  Check for the Latest Version
  ----------------------------

  * You can now check for the latest version of CDRouter from the
    buddy command-line using the -check-version option. When this
    option is run, buddy will query qacafe.com for the latest 
    version.

    Example:

    # buddy -check-version


  New Repeat Option for Test Execution
  ------------------------------------

  * Starting with CDRouter 3.2, you can now use a -scount option to
    repeat each test multiple times before continuing on to the new
    test. 

    Example:

       # buddy -module nat.tcl -scount 3

    The -scount option can also be used with the -rcount which controls
    how many loops are made through the entire test list.

       # buddy -module nat.tcl -scount 3 -rcount 10

    The -scount option is also available through BuddyWeb. In the
    package wizard when configuring the Run-Time options, check the
    "Run each test  times in a row"  checkbox under the
    "Other options" section. Once enabled, you can enter a count.

    For more explaination of the -scount and how -scount and -rcount
    are different, please search the knowledge base for "-scount".

   New Test Cases in CDRouter 3.2
   ------------------------------

   * CDRouter 3.2 contains a new renum-pptp.tcl test module that verifies
     renumbering and DNS to DHCP interactions when running PPTP. To run
     the new test module, enable PPTP and then run:

     # buddy -module renum-pptp.tcl

     CDRouter 3.2 also contains a bug fix to correctly handle PPTP-DHCP
     when the WAN link is reset. The issue previously effected the upnp.tcl
     and dyndns.tcl modules when PPTP-DHCP was enabled.

   
   * CDRouter 3.2 contains a new test case in the firewall.tcl module to
     verify that the router ignores DNS queries on the WAN interface. The
     new test case is cdrouter_firewall_10.

     # buddy -execute cdrouter_firewall_10


   Multiport Update for multiple LAN subnets
   -----------------------------------------

   * CDRouter-Multiport 3.2 contains an update that allows each LAN
     interface to be configured on a different subnet. To configure
     an additional LAN interface on a different subnet, you must 
     configure a new lanIp and lanMask for the additional interface.

     Example. If the router is 192.168.1.1/24 on the first subnet but
     has an additional subnet of 192.168.10.1/24.


     testvar_group lan2 {
      
        testvar lanInterface      eth5
        testvar lanType           ethernet
        testvar lanIp             192.168.10.1
        testvar lanMask           255.255.255.0
     }

     Each interface may also be configured with a unique 802.1q 
     VLAN id using the testvar lanVlanId.

     testvar_group lan2 {
      
        testvar lanInterface      eth5
        testvar lanType           ethernet
        testvar lanIp             192.168.10.1
        testvar lanMask           255.255.255.0
        testvar lanVlanId         100
        testvar lanVlanPriority   2
     }



   CDRouter-IKE adds NAT-Traversal
   -------------------------------

   * CDRouter-IKE now supports NAT-Traversal and contains a new test module
     ike-natt.tcl to verify NAT-Traversal.

     Currently, 4 different versions of NAT-T can be configured based on
     different version of IETF drafts that resulted in RFC 3947. 

     To enable NAT-T, the testvar ikeNatTraversal should be configured
     to one of the supported versions. The following values are supported:

	       draft-00
	       draft-02
	       draft-03
	       rfc-3947
	       no

     Example:

	testvar ikeNatTraversal draft-03
 

     More details on configuring NAT-T and NAT-T testing can be found in 
     the CDRouter-IKE User Guide.

   BuddyWeb Enhanced for Multiple Test Loops
   -----------------------------------------

   * Starting in CDRouter 3.2, BuddyWeb now lets the user navigate through
     each page of test reults when the "Loop Forever" or "Loop Count"
     features are enabled on a package. While the package is running,
     BuddyWeb will show the current executing tests by default, but the
     user may start viewing test results from eariler loops by turning 
     off the "follow" mode.
   

   BuddyWeb Scripting
   ------------------

   * The BuddyWeb command-line now contains a new -wait option that makes
     it easier to launch multiple BuddyWeb test runs from a script. When
     -wait is used on the BuddyWeb command-line, the BuddyWeb command will
     not return until the package has finished running.

    Example Script:

       #!/bin/sh
       buddyweb -package config_a -wait
       buddyweb -package config_b -wait
       buddyweb -package config_c -wait

    While the script is running, you may use the BuddyWeb interface to
    monitor the results.
