Release Overview

• Handle CTRL+Z without exiting the VTY shell
  • In the 8.3 release, the CTRL+Z combination exited the VTY shell, it’s back again!
• Ignore end when parsing frr.conf
  • If frr.conf has end inside the config, BGP peering starts only after 10 minutes. This is because parsing the end keyword stopped hooks from reaching the end of the configuration and BGP thoughts the configuration is not ready.
