February 27, 2004 - Treck Releases Version 4.0 of their award winning IPv4/IPv6 Protocol Stack

Version 4.0 of the Treck IPv4/IPv6 Dual protocol stack was released February 27, 2004.
This latest version of the Treck product includes all the functionality from the highly acclaimed version 3 product while adding several new key benefits and optimizations.

• Dual stack support for IPv6
• Stack can be configured at compile-time as an IPv4-only stack, IPv6-only stack, or dual (IPv4 + IPv6) stack 
• Full compliance with TAHI IPv6 conformance test suites including IPv6 Neighbor Discovery, IPv6 Path MTU Discovery, IPv6 Stateless Address Auto-Configuration (Prefix Discovery), IPv6 Robustness, IPv6 Specification, IPv6+IPsec 
• Mobile IPv6 mobile node and correspondent node (fully compliant with latest draft RFCs) with Intersil Prism 2.5 WiFi device driver 
• Dual stack applications support both IPv4 and IPv6 (DNS Resolver, FTP, TFTP, Telnet, SNMP Agent, Ping , Web Server, SMTP and POP3 clients) 
• IPv6 support for Ethernet and PPP link-layers

• WAP2.0 enhancements for Wireless TCP, including FACK (Forward Acknowledgement)

• IPsec + IKE fully integrated with dual stack IPv4+IPv6
• PFS (Perfect Forward Secrecy) 
• AH and ESP in either transport mode or tunnel mode 
• SA bundles (AH+ESP) 
• All mandatory authentication and encryption algorithms; additional optional algorithms such as AES, Blowfish, Twofish, and Cast
• Generic interface to IPsec hardware acceleration with support for Hifn 7951 security chipset

• Win32 and Linux preemptive OS ports for prototyping purposes (Runs in Application Space)

• Network Statistic APIs (netstat) providing application access to and presentation formatting of:
  • Device table information 
  • UDP socket table information 
  • TCP socket table information 
  • ARP table information 
  • Routing table information 
  • Mobile IPv6 correspondent node binding information

• PPP Enhancements
  • Support for MS-CHAP

• SNMP Agent enhancements:
• New MIB compiler based on industry-standard “libsmi” 
• 16-bit and 8-bit OIDs Support
• Ported to run on 16-bit microprocessors 
• SNMPv3 community MIB Support
• IPv6 Support

• FTP Client
  • Supports passive mode for both IPv4 and IPv6

• DNS Resolver
  • Supports returning multiple IP addresses for a specified domain name

• Enhanced support for HTTP web server, POP3 and SMTP clients

• TCP/UDP hardware acceleration (checksum offload, TCP segmentation offload)

•   DHCP enhancements:
  • New API to allow the user to set the DHCP initial state to either INIT or INITREBOOT prior to configuration
  • New API to allow the user to request a preferred IP address prior to configuration 
  • New API to allow the user to set its own DHCP client ID option, or to suppress sending a DHCP client ID option prior to configuration

• Simple Heap enhancements
• Prevents heap fragmentation
• Support for multiple memory pages for targets that have a memory segment length restriction. (for example, 16-bit microprocessor with a 64K-byte memory page limitation)

• Additional device drivers and ports
  • Intel XScale with Gigabit Ethernet 82544
  • Hitachi S8/7616 and H8/2674R
  • Intersil PRISM 2.5 WiFi device driver
  • CMX RTOS
  • Infineon C161P
  • SMSC LAN91C113
