DESCRIPTION:   This release provides updated firmware for the latest
               maintenance releases of the Hewlett-Packard Integrated
               Lights-Out Management Controller.

New features -

1.  Added support for the ProLiant DL380 G3 and ProLiant DL 360 G3.

2.  Added support for HP rebranded firmware.

3.  Added support for Virtual Media disconnect detection. If the Virtual 
    Media applet connection is lost (due to wireless roaming, or disconnection
    of diagnostic port cable without logging out, etc.) then the connection
    will timeout after 30 seconds of no response, thereby allowing re-connection
    to take place.

4.  Added support for Integrated Management Log wrapping. The IML now wraps,
    overwriting the oldest entries, so that recent events are not lost, and 
    the full log is viewable from within the Integrated Lights-Out log viewer.

5.  Added support for Remote Console 2D draw engine. Remote Console performance 
    is improved in Windows 2000 and Windows .NET. The latency between a typed 
    character and the appearance of the character is reduced. The software 
    mouse pointer is more responsive, and the information underneath the 
    software mouse pointer when dragging is updated more frequently.

Problems fixed from last release -

1.  Scripted hot key support was improved to automatically activate the
    hot keys after the script is executed.

2.  Corrected a situation where the ProLiant BL20p would power back on
    after powering off.

3.  Corrected a situation where user settings might be lost if a web page
    was saved prior to the page completing its download process.

4.  Corrected a situation which could cause incorrect NIC speed reporting
    in Insight Manager.

5.  Corrected a situation where Remote Console would lock up immediately
    after removing the iLO License Activation Key.

6.  Corrected the power calculations in the Power Management Page
    (ProLiant BL20p only).

7.  Corrected a SSL security vulnerability as described in Vulnerability
    Note VU#102795 (http://www.cert.org/).

Problems -

1.  Updated iLO User Guide and User Guide Addendum can also be found by
