2.1. Bug fixes

  1. The /bridges/bridge/component/custom-ethertype leaf (SID: 30016) was implemented as a uint16_t, but the YANG schema stated that this should have been a string. This is now fixed, and the implementation now accepts a string as stated in the YANG model. Microchip internal tracking ID: LMSTAX-1313.

  2. The /interfaces/interface/eth-qos/config/traffic-class-schedulers-bandwidth leaf (SID: 8050) did not accept an empty list. This has now been fixed. Microchip internal tracking ID: LMSTAX-1286.
