Leap Second bug

[waqas]

Could someone please confirm, or direct me to the right person, whether Extreme products are affected by the Leap Second bug?

Since it was asked and then removed, I'll go ahead and mention...
Switches running SNTP aren't subject to this issue because leap seconds don't receive special handling under the SNTP protocol.

Hello,
I would ask this question specifically for the "C" and "S" series switches. Are they affected and where will this information be published. June 30 is quickly approaching and plans for upgrades or possible outages needs to be put in place as early as possible.
thnks in advance

Hi Walt,
The C and S series switches have been reviewed and were found to not be vulnerable to the Leap Second bug because they aren't Linux based platforms. You can find this information in the link mentioned above, reposted here for convenience: http://learn.extremenetworks.com/rs/extreme/images/VN-2015-002-Leap_Second.pdf

If you've got other questions, let us know! I/we will be happy to answer them.

Does anyone know when XOS 16.2.1 will be released?
