1. Limitations of the release BRS 10.0.00
==============================================

Caution:
- With the update to HiOS 10.0.00 the bootloader is also replaced.
  Make sure that there is no power interruption during the update.
  
If the file system is formatted with HiOS 08.0.00 software release or newer, a 
	downgrade to release 07.4.xx is not working.

IP version 4: Packets containing short ipv4 headers or short tcp headers and
     packets that are too short for their ip headers are dropped by the switch. 

MACsec: Hardware of BRS MACsec variants is MACsec ready. Software support will
     follow in a future release.
