Feature Corrections in ExtremeXOS 12.5.3

This section lists the feature corrections supported in ExtremeXOS 12.5.3 software:
BFD Static RoutesThe Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) feature can be used to bring down static routes when the host link fails. Without BFD, static routes always remain operationally Up because there is no dynamic routing protocol to report network changes. This can lead to a black hole situation, where data is lost for an indefinite duration. Because upper layer protocols are unaware that a static link is not working, they cannot switch to alternate routes and continue to use system resources until the appropriate timers expire. IGMP Router AlertPer the current ExtremeXOS implementation, all IGMPv2 and IGMPv3 messages generated by a switch are sent without the Router Alert option in the IP header. IGMP packets are accepted and processed with or without the Router Alert option in the IP header. The IETF standard (RFC 2236 and RFC 3376) states that IGMPv2 and IGMPv3 messages should be sent with Router Alert Option in the IP header.
Overview
ELRP Port ShutdownWhen you have configured a switch to automatically disable the port where the looped packet arrived, there may be certain ports that you do not want disabled. You can then create a list of ports that are excluded from this automatic disabling and that will remain enabled. This list can also contain EAPS ring ports. You can also specify that EAPS ring ports are excluded. When this option is selected, the actual EAPS ring ports do not have to be explicitly listed. SNMP INFORMThis feature allows for confirmation of a message delivery. When an SNMP manager receives an INFORM message from an SNMP agent, it sends a confirmation response back to the agent. If the message has not been received and therefore no response is returned, the INFORM message is resent. You can configure the number of attempts to make and the interval between attempts. Autopolarity for Combo PortsAutopolarity is now supported on combo ports. This feature applies to only the 10/100/1000 BASE-T ports on the switch and copper medium on Summit combination ports.
Feature Corrections in ExtremeXOS 12.5.2

This section lists the feature corrections supported in ExtremeXOS 12.5.2 software:
Data Center SolutionsThe following section has been added to the Data Center Solutions chapter of the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide: Introduction to Data Center Solutions. ELRP AdditionThe following has been added to Appendix D, Troubleshooting, Example: ELRP on Protocol-based VLANs of the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide: For ELRP to detect loops on a protocol-based VLAN (other than the protocol any), you need to add the ethertype 0x00bb to the protocol. Example
# Create VLANs create vlan v1 create vlan v2 # Protocol filter configuration configure vlan v1 protocol IP configure vlan v2 protocol decnet # Add ports to the VLAN configure vlan v1 add ports 1 configure vlan v2 add ports 2 # Enable ELRP on the create VLANs enable elrp-client configure elrp-client periodic v1 ports all interval 5 log configure elrp-client periodic v2 ports all interval 5 log # Add the ethertype to the protocol configure protocol IP add snap 0x00bb configure protocol decnet add snap 0x00bb
VLANs v1 and v2 can then detect the loop on their respective broadcast domains.
EPICenter Name ChangeEPICenter is now called Ridgeline. Ridgeline is an Extreme Networksproprietary graphical user interface (GUI) network management system.
EXTREME-SYSTEM-MIB Table AdditionThe following Table/Group has been added to the EXTREMESYSTEM-MIB Table. extremeImageTableThis table contains image information for all images installed on the device. ExtremeXOS Feature Pack AdditionsThe following feature packs have been added to Table 143, ExtremeXOS Feature Pack Features, in Appendix A, of the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide: CNA Feature Pack Legacy CLI Feature Pack SSH Feature Pack
Extreme Network Virtualization (XNV) FeatureThe XNV feature is updated in this release to allow you to specify the repository server directory on the FTP server that serves as the repository server. To specify the repository server directory, enter the following command:
configure vm-tracking repository [primary | secondary] server [<ipaddress> | <hostname>] {vr <vr-name>} {refresh-interval <seconds>} {path-name <path_name>}
The path_name specifies the path to the repository server files from the FTP server root directory. The default directory for repository server files is: pub. To display the configured repository server directory, use the following command:
show vm-tracking repository Primary VM-Map FTP server: Server name: IP address : 10.100.1.200 VR Name : VR-Mgmt Refresh-interval : 600 seconds Path Name : pub Secondary vm-map FTP server: Unconfigured Last sync Last sync status
: 16:35:15 : Successful
Last sync server
: Primary
Identity Management RevisionThe following note has been added to Chapter 22, Identity Management, in the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide:
NOTE
This chapter discusses identity management features that are managed using the switch CLI. Related features are described in other chapters and in the Ridgeline product documentation. For a description of identity management that ties all the related components together, see the application note titled Deploying an Identity Aware Network, which is available from Extreme Networks.
Revised QoS Meters DescriptionFor ExtremeXOS 12.5.2 and later, the description of QoS meters is changed as follows: On BlackDiamond 8800 series switches, SummitStack, and Summit family switches that are supported by this software release, meters are a per-VLAN resource. For example, if you assign a 50 Mbps meter to a VLAN, the total throughput for all ports in that VLAN is limited to 50 Mbps. (PD4-1727668151)
Secure Shell (SSH) Serialized Licensing and DistributionExtreme Networks has enhanced its processes regarding SSH licensing. SSH contains strong encryption algorithms, which heightens the export controls required in the United States and other countries. SSH is now delivered and licensed on a serialized basis, with a separate license key required to activate SSH on each Extreme Networks switch. See the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide, Software Version 12.5.2, for more detailed information.
Overview
For frequently asked questions (FAQs) pertaining to the SSH License Process Change, see Product Change Notice No. 2011002, ExtremeXOS SSH Process Change on eSupport. https://esupport.extremenetworks.com/eservice_enu/docs/pcn/ PCN2011002_EXOS_SSH_Process_Change_TEST.php

Upgrading ExtremeXOS SoftwareThe following note has been added to the Installing a Core Image section of Appendx B: Software Upgrade and Boot Options, in the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide.
NOTE
When updating from ExtremeXOS 12.0.x or earlier to ExtremeXOS 12.5.x or later, you must first update to ExtremeXOS 12.3.4 and then update to ExtremeXOS 12.5.x or later.
Using Auto Provision of Edge Switches CorrectionParagraph three of theUsing Auto Provision of Edge Switches section of the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide, page 105, should read: A switch enabled with auto provision can be identified as follows:
New Features and Functionality in ExtremeXOS 12.5.1

This section lists the new features and functionality supported in ExtremeXOS 12.5.1 software:
ACL Match ConditionBased on IEEE 802.1p, this feature provides the ability to create an access list (ACL) based on VLAN tag priority information. Access Profile LoggingThis feature provides ACL support for traffic reaching the following applications: SNMP, Telnet, SSH2, and HTTP/HTTPS. This is in addition to using policy files to add ACLs. Auto Provisioning for Edge SwitchesThis feature allows for the configuration of certain parameters on a switch automatically using DHCP and TFTP servers. This process can make an Extreme Networks switch ready to do the initial provisioning without any manual intervention. check firmware version CLI Command for the BlackDiamond 20800 Series SwitchUse the new check firmware version command to check whether any upgrade is to be done to any of the uC or FPGAs. If an upgrade is required, the output shows the running and expected versions for the boards. If there is no upgrade required, the same is printed. Refer to the ExtremeXOS Command Reference Guide for more details. CLEAR-Flow SupportCLEAR-Flow is now supported on BlackDiamond 20800 series switches. Direct AttachThe direct attach feature is a port configuration feature that supports VM-to-VM communication on a directly connected server that uses the Virtual Ethernet Port Aggregator (VEPA) feature on that server. Without VEPA and direct attach, a VM server must use a virtual Ethernet
10
bridge or switch on the VM server to enable Ethernet communications between VMs. With VEPA and direct attach, the VM server can rely on a directly connected switch to receive and reflect VM-toVM messages between VMs on the same server.
Distributed IP ARP Mode for BlackDiamond 8800 Series SwitchesThis feature increases the IPv4 ARP limit from 16,000 up to a maximum of 260,000 on a BlackDiamond 8800 series switch. The actual limit depends on the number and types of modules present on a BlackDiamond 8810 or BlackDiamond 8806 switch. DDMI OpticsDigital Diagnostic Monitoring Interface (DDMI) optics provide critical information about the installed Gigabit and 10 Gigabit optical transceiver modules. EAPS and PBB Redundant AccessEAPS now recognizes an SVLAN or CVLAN to BVLAN mapping and makes the BVLAN facing port the Active-Open port, which keeps the link to the core forwarding when the shared-port goes down. EAPS Priority DomainsEAPS now supports high and normal priority domains, allowing you to give priority response to the most important protected VLANs if a ring fault occurs. EAPS Secondary Control PortThe EAPS hello packet period now supports more values (configure eaps hellotime), and the software supports transmission of hello PDUs out of the secondary port (configure eaps hello-pdu-egress). Secondary port hello PDU transmission is provided for special circumstances; Extreme Networks recommends the default configuration, primary port hello PDU transmission. Enable and Disable DHCP/BOOTP Relay per VLANCurrently you can enable and disable BOOTP relay only on a virtual router (VR), which means the DHCP is enabled or disabled on all VLANs on that VR. With ExtremeXOS 12.5.1, you can enable or disable BOOTP relay a VR or on individual VLANs.
Enable and Disable SNMP per Virtual RouterTo provide SNMP support based on a virtual router, the existing enable/disable SNMP access CLI commands have been modified. These commands now include a VR option. SNMP access is enabled by default on all VRs. If SNMP access is disabled on a VR, the incoming SNMP request is dropped and an EMS log message is displayed. Extreme Network Virtualization (XNV)The Extreme Network Virtualization (XNV) feature, which is also known as Virtual Machine (VM) tracking, supports VM port movement, port configuration for VMs, and VM inventory on network switches. The XNV feature enables a switch to configure switch ports in response to VM detection and port movement and report VM activity to network management software. FDB Entry StatisticsThe show fdb stats command has been updated to display information that is dynamically updated. A no-refresh option is provided for those who prefer the static display. Identity Management, Phase 2The identity management feature has been extended to support identity authentication through a RADIUS server or local database. As part of the authentication, identities can be associated with hierarchical roles, to which policies or dynamic ACL rules are attached. These policies and rules can be used to configure port settings for the discovered identity. IP ARP Entry StatisticsThe show iparp stats command has been added to display IP ARP statistics in a display that is dynamically updated. Statistics can be displayed for VRs, ports, or VLANs. IPFIX Protocol SupportThe IP Flow Information Export (IPFIX) protocol captures information about traffic flows passing through network elements in a data network and sends the information to an external collector.
11
Overview
IP Multicast Scaling EnhancementTo support more IP multicast (IPMC) FDB entries, BlackDiamond 8900 series modules with external tables can now be configured to support additional IPMC FDB entries. This feature is configured with the configure forwarding external-tables command. LAG Port SelectionThis feature allows you to apply an ACL that causes matching packets to egress a specific port in a link aggregation (or load-sharing) group. Login Banner EnhancementsA user configurable banner can now be displayed after a successful login. Enhancements for banners used with network login have also been added. MIB Support for Extreme Target Address MIBSupport for the VR option has been added to the Extreme target-addr MIB. Mirroring ScalingOn all ExtremeXOS platforms, the maximum number of mirroring filters has been increased from 16 to 128. The maximum number of VLAN or virtual ports filters remains at 16. If there are no configured VLAN or virtual port filters, 128 ports can be mirrored. If you have the maximum of 16 VLAN or virtual ports filters configured, 112 ports (128-16) can be configured. MLAG Switch SupportThe multi-switch link aggregation group (MLAG) feature allows you to combine ports on two switches to form a single logical connection to another network device. The other network device can be either a server or a switch and is separately configured with a regular LAG (or appropriate server port teaming) to form the port aggregation. The basic operation of this feature requires two ExtremeXOS switches interconnected by an inter-switch connection (ISC). MPLS Support on BlackDiamond 8800 Series SwitchesMultiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is now supported on BlackDiamond 8800 series switches that contain only certain BlackDiamond 8900 series modules: 8900-10G8X-xl, 8900-G48T-xl, 8900-G48X-xl with MSM 8900-MSM128. Be sure to read the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide, as this feature is only supported when the proper hardware, software, and feature pack is installed. MPLS Support on Summit X460 and X480 SwitchesMPLS is now also supported on Summit X460 and X480 switches. Be sure to read the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide, as this feature is only supported when the proper hardware, software, and feature pack is installed. Packet Buffer ConfigurationThis feature provides more efficient buffer usage and more control of buffer usage on select BlackDiamond 8000 series modules and Summit family switches. Control is implemented through the configure port shared-packet-buffer command. Power over Ethernet plus (PoE+)PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) has been implemented and supports up to 30W at the power sourcing equipment. Priority Flow ControlThis feature provides the functionality to allow traffic associated with certain priorities to be paused while traffic associated with other priorities on the same port continues to flow. Round Robin LAGThe round robin algorithm is used to select a member from a LAG to route a packet rather than using a hash algorithm that is based on the L2/l3 address fields of the packet. show tech Command EnhancementsThe commands show management and ls internalmemory have been added to the output of the show tech command. SummitStack-VThis feature uses 10 Gb or faster switch ports as stacking ports, which allows greater cable distances between stacking nodes and allows a stack to span between racks, building floors, or buildings. SyncESynchronous Ethernet (SyncE) allows the hardware to synchronize the clock time that is used for data transmission to a reference clock. The primary reference clock comes from a base station controller. Tunable DWDMTunable Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) allows you to configure a DWDM channel to a DWDM capable XFP module on a port, providing the capability to multiplex 40x10G traffic over a single fiber. Supported on Summit X480 series switches, BlackDiamond 20800 series switches, and BlackDiamond 8800 series switches.
12
Virtual Router ScalingThe software now supports Virtual Router and Forwarding instances (VRFs), which are an extension of the VR feature. VRFs function as children of VRs and support many more VR instances than previously provided by the VR feature. VLAN Statistics Support for BlackDiamond 8800 Series Switches and Summit Family Switches Support for VLAN statistics is based on the current implementation of VLAN statistics on the BlackDiamond 12800 series switch. Statistics gathering is initiated through the configure ports [<port_list>| all] monitor vlan <vlan_name> CLI command. Packet and byte counters are displayed on a per-port per-VLAN basis using the show ports {<port_list>} vlan statistics {no-refresh} CLI command or through SNMP Gets. VPLS MIB Enhancement for EPICenterExtremeXOS 12.5.1 introduces new VPLS MIBs for EPICenter. Virtual Router Support for OSPFv3 and RIPngIPv6 unicast routing protocols (OSPFv3 and RIPng) are now supported in user created virtual routers (VRs). Wide Key ACLThis feature allows the use of a 362-bit double wide match key instead of a standard 181-bit single wide key to be used with match conditions. It allows you to add more match conditions to an ACL and also allows matching on a full destination-source IPv6 address.

Upgrading to ExtremeXOS
See Software Upgrade and Boot Options in the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide for instructions on upgrading ExtremeXOS software. Following are miscellaneous hitless upgrade notes:
Beginning with ExtremeXOS 12.1, an ExtremeXOS core image (.xos file) must be downloaded and installed on the alternate (non-active) partition. If you try to download to an active partition, the error message "Error: Image can only be installed to the non-active partition." is displayed. An ExtremeXOS modular software package (.xmod file) can still be downloaded and installed on either the active or alternate partition. For the BlackDiamond 8800 series of switches, a hitless upgrade to ExtremeXOS 12.5.2 from an earlier release is not supported and should not be attempted. Use the normal software upgrade process for these switches. Hitless upgrade from ExtremeXOS 12.0 and earlier to ExtremeXOS 12.1 and later is not supported on the BlackDiamond 12800 switch.
ExtremeXOS Command Line Support

The following is true for all Summit X150 and X350 series switches:
Summit X150 and X350 series switches do not support L3 functionality; this platform does not support CLI commands for L3 functionality. Summit X150 and X350 series switches do not support stacking; all CLI commands for stacking are not supported on this platform. Summit X150 and X350 series switches do not support IP forwarding; however, CLI commands that configure IP addresses function in order to access the management functionality of the switch are supported. Upgrade or trial licensing is not available on the Summit X150 and X350 series switches.

CHAPTER
Limits
This chapter summarizes the supported limits in ExtremeXOS 12.5.3.
Supported Limits
Table 37 summarizes tested metrics for a variety of features, as measured in a per-system basis unless otherwise noted. These limits may change but represent the current status. The contents of this table supersede any values mentioned in the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide.
NOTE The term BlackDiamond 8000 e-series refers to all BlackDiamond 8500 e-series and 8800 e-series modules.The term BlackDiamond 8000 series refers to all BlackDiamond 8500, 8800, and 8900 series modules.
The scaling and performance information shown in Table 37 is provided for the purpose of assisting with network design. It is recommended that network architects and administrators design and manage networks with an appropriate level of network scaling head room. The scaling and performance figures provided have been verified using specific network topologies using limited switch configurations. There is no guarantee that the scaling and performance figures shown are applicable to all network topologies and switch configurations and are provided as a realistic estimation only. If you experience scaling and performance characteristics that you feel are sufficiently below what has been documented, contact Extreme Networks technical support for additional assistance. The route limits shown in Table 37 for IPv4 and IPv6 routing protocols are software limits only. The actual hardware limits may be lower than the software limits, based on platform. The hardware limits for specific platforms are specified as "IPv4/IPv6 routes (LPM entries in hardware)" in the following table. On certain BlackDiamond 8000 and Summit products, it is not advised to have greater than 25,000 total IP routes from all routing protocols. This includes a BlackDiamond 8000 series switch with an 8500MSM24, MSM-G8X or MSM-48, and Summit X250e, X450a, X450e, or X650 switches, either in a SummitStack or standalone. Adverse effects can occur with routing tables larger than this, especially when a single network event or CLI command affects a significant number of routes. For example, just after such a network event, the added system load will cause a save configuration command to time out.

Open Issues
Following are the open issues for supported features in ExtremeXOS 12.5.3. They are organized into the following sections: Table 38: Platform-Specific and Feature PDs
PD Number General PD4-2011056021 After a reboot, I/O slots do not go into an operational state with identity management enabled (when I/O ports are part of identity manager). Workaround: Using the ExtremeXOS CLI, run the configure identity-management delete ports all command before the switch reboots. Once the switch has rebooted, run the configure identity-management add ports all command. PD4-1933787334 The RtMgr process may encounter the assertion failure ASSERTION FAILURE by rtmgr in rtMgrResolveEgressIf()@rtMgrTable.c:6892 REASON: IPGW_OUTIF_INDEX(tmpInfo) == ifIndex when an IP address is configured on a VLAN. DHCP/BOOTP relay does not work properly if iproute mpls-next-hops is enabled because they are unsupported features. EPM process crashes with signal 6 when upgrading a switch from ExtremeXOS 12.2.2 to ExtremeXOS 12.3.5 when an SSH license file has 100 or more SSH licenses. Description

PD Number PD4-1751958424 PD4-1885807081 Description In CLI scripting, $READ inside loop is not working. A switch shows the following ACL error while detecting a kerberos identity and the switch is not synchronizing the kerberos identity with a backup slot. <Erro:HAL.IPv4ACL.Error> PD4-1859776249 PD4-1814422340 A switch resends SNMPv3 Inform Requests even after an SNMPv3 Inform Response is received from an Inform receiver. A static group still exists in an IGMP group after deleting the IGMP static member. Workaround: If a static IGMP group is configured on a VLAN it is recommended that you set the IGMP RA receive required off.

A telnet access profile is not retained after running the save and reboot commands. A switch does not generate a "Remidfrmport" UPM event when disabling IdMgr globally. Co-existence of untagged vMAN VPLS and VLAN VPLS on LAG ports is not supported. The show fdb command output does not show the pseudo-wire FDBs after a port is disabled and enabled. A switch hangs while adding 52 RIPng processes to a user VR with eight processes already in the default VR. A netTools configuration is lost after a graceful termination of the netTools process followed by an MSM failover. When unconfiguring an IP address on an egress VLAN, or re-configuring the IP address of the egress VLAN, all the MVR cache entries that are ingressing via other VLANs are also cleared from the hardware. Because of this, momentary CPU bursts are observed. A HAL crash with signal 11 occurs when running the disable access-list refresh blackhole command. Whenever a (*, G) join is received, all hardware entries installed on non upstream interfaces (*, G) are cleared. Therefore, every 60 seconds, the L2 switching is affected, traffic comes to the CPU, and entries are re-learned. When using IdMgr, the configure identity-management add port all command is not enabling IdMgr on any ports. Workaround: Use the configure identity-management add port <portlist> command to enable IdMgr on ports.

After configuring a banner, if a configuration with no banner is used, the banner configured earlier is displayed. A switch crashes with soc_dma_done_desc in the NVRAM dump. ISIS neighborship goes down when the hello interval is set to minimal. ISIS goes to Init state and provides a negative HoldTime when redistributing 40,000 OSPF routes into ISIS. ISIS crashes with signal 11 when performing an ISIS process restart after a MIBwalk with 255 adjacencies. Creating and additional 100 PIM VLANs when a system has 2,000 (S, G) entries with 100 egress VLANs causes a PIM process crash. An ISIS process crash with signal 6 may occur when disabling ISIS when ISISv6 and ISIS IP route compression are configured. In an IdMgr configuration, a DUT does not show unknown entries if a client or server port is configured with a static IP address and connected to an L2 network. The ethernet OAM half-link feature is not supported in ExtremeXOS 12.5.1. With multiple NSSA areas where there is more than one link between areas, OSPF default routes are not installed in the routing table. In ISIS, when route summarization is configured with authentication, the authentication is not effective and all the routes are advertised, regardless of the type of authentication configured. ISIS tx-only authentication also authenticates received LSPs. The received routes are not installed in the ISIS LSDB based on the authentication policy. When DHCP lease time is set to the maximum/infinity (4294967295), the DHCP client continuously sends renewal requests. For the incoming traffic with alignment errors, the "RX Align" counter in the output of the show ports <port number> rxerrors command is not incremented. Instead, the "RX CRC" counter is incremented. When configuring an optional name for the time zone/DST, the time zone name truncates at seven characters. The system default is six characters. When a service VLAN is changed to include a dot1q tag on both sides in CFM VPLS, the RMEP entry is not learned on one side.

Sending 5,000 byte traffic works correctly. However, if you disable jumbo-frames on the egress port the error message Packet too big is displayed. When a shared link comes up, temporary traffic loss may occur until FDB entries are aged. Aging occurs by default every five minutes. Workaround: To reduce traffic loss, reduce the default age time.

Pseudo wire counters for Tx and Rx are not working on BlackDiamond 8900 series switches after a transport LSP path is changed. Process etmon is terminated with signal 6 on MSM-B during local AAA feature regression. Process snmpSubagent is terminated with signal 6 when clearing a counter after setting an SNMP session. A BlackDiamond 8800 series switch takes more than 30 minutes to boot up with VLAN aggregation configured. In ISIS, when the topology mode is changed from multi to single, not all routes are redistributed from OSPFv3. ISIS process crashes with signal 6 while trying to change the metric-style to wide under scaled conditions. Beginning with ExtremeXOS 12.5, the mirroring feature stops working after downgrading and then upgrading the switch software. When an ExtremeXOS switch receives an OSPF user group LSA advertisement with a router ID field as 0.0.0.0, the switch does not process the advertisement and reboots OSPF. When installing new PSU controller firmware, log messages starting with <Crit:Kern.Critical> or <Erro:Kern.Error> may be generated by the backup MSM and can be ignored. Due to the addition of new features in ExtremeXOS 12.5, BlackDiamond 8800 series switch configurations running older management modules (MSM-G8X and MSM-48) may run out of memory when a large number of VLANs are configured with multiple tagged ports added for each VLAN. For example, a configuration with 4,000 VLANs and 24 ports tagged on each VLAN is not supported. Newer BlackDiamond 8800 management modules (MSM-48c or 8900-MSM128) are recommended for larger configurations. An OSPF session goes down and stays in EX_START and continues flapping to EXCHANGE and EX_START states. If a failover occurs during a refresh policy the HAL process dies on a new master MSM. Workaround: Avoid performing a policy refresh if switching from one MSM to another.

PD4-1603284873 PD3-121985381 Route compression is not working properly when a system experiences a TCAM full condition. You cannot configure an IP MTU that is greater than the configured jumbo frame size. However, when the jumbo frame size is configured using a smaller value than the IP MTU, the configuration is accepted and the traffic is forwarded using the larger packet sizes. Switch is not sending an "icmp destination unreachable" message to the source when it receives a jumbo packet with a "dont fragment" bit message. This applies to BlackDiamond 10800 and BlackDiamond 20808 switches only. In IPv6, the encapsulate value is next header, which is not currently a valid attribute.

BlackDiamond 20800 Series Switch PD4-1885738914 PD4-1881467874 When using VPLS, pinging between service VLANs does not work after modifying the tag value of a service VLAN. After an MSM failover from MSM-A to MSM-B and back to MSM-A, ARP learning is not happening on some VLANs. This is causing upper layer protocols such as OSPF to go to the down state. Process HAL crashes when we have 2,000 (S, G) entries with 100 egress VLANs doing L3 multicast routing using PIM DM. BlackDiamond 20800 series switches displays critical error messages and becomes unstable when multicast traffic is received when there are 200 egress interfaces. A system crash occurs on a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch when more than 500 non-VPN VRF instances are created. Establishing 255 ISIS adjacencies in multi-topology mode on a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch causes a HAL crash. With 255 adjacencies, some of the adjacent OSPF peers are in different states, for example, one side shows OSPF neighbors are full, and the other side shows they are still in the exchange state. A BlackDiamond 20800 series switch with 100 egress VLANs crashes when multicast traffic for 1,000 (S,G) entries is received in a burst with varying packet sizes. Disabling a slot on a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch while booting the system removes the module type.

PD Number PD4-1593913298 Description When multiple VPLS instances are configured on a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch to one peer, and the VPLS instances use different RSVP-TE LSPs for pseudo wire transport, traffic for some VPLS instances may be dropped. High CPU utilization is seen when broadcast traffic is sent over a VPLS service VLAN or vMAN. Traffic is not shaped on a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch if ports are added to a vMAN after configuring an ACL. DUT allows you to create large traffic queues without displaying an error message. The system may reboot, or I/O modules could reboot and go into a failed state, when creating and binding traffic queues that exceed the limit.

Refreshing an ACL on an MM-B while running an MSM failover on MM-A causes MSM-A to lose the ACL configuration on MSM-A. An FDB entry for a non-isolated VLAN is not show in the output of the show fdb command after disabling and enabling an I/O module. MAC security does not work on a PVLAN. Installing firmware fails and displays the following message: tftp: server says: Wrong TFTP State When installing the EXOS image, watchdog EPC (csd_flag_wait+0x18/0x28) will happen and may cause a crash. Workaround: Stop traffic when installing new ExtremeXOS image. PD4-1356143799 BVLAN bandwidth that contains a 1G port is not shared evenly, but randomly when a port from SVLAN and a port from CVLAN (both are 1G) are sending the line rate traffic with same priority. Random traffic drop is also observed on one traffic stream when other is stopped. IP Fragmentation is not happening with jumbo frame enabled. When VRRP is disabled on a switch the redundant VRRP switch becomes the master. In this event, IP packets that need to be routed back to the switch where VRRP is disabled are dropped.

ACL counters are not hitting the IGMP packets. When creating a dynamic egress ACL to deny all traffic, the traffic still hits the ARP reply counter but not denying the packets. When configuring an ACL and using the keyword denyAll in the create accesslist command, the action is not stopping the ARP reply packets. VPLS traffic stops after configuring MAC limit-learning. Performing a save and reboot on a DUT with 5,000 dynamic ACLs causes one module to go into a failed state while the remaining modules stay in ACL sync even after one hour. After running the unconfigure switch all command, an I/O module may stick in the booting state, resulting in the switch continually rebooting. When PIM and PIM snooping are enabled on the same VLAN, and if that VLAN happens to be a PIM egress VLAN, traffic forwarding does not happen on the VLAN. A BlackDiamond 20808 switch with a single MM running ExtremeXOS 12.3.2 software fails to upgrade during a firmware upgrade process. It also fails during the firmware downgrade process. You may need to try and install the firmware multiple times. DUT is hanging with a busy message (dots) after configuring 7,250 ingress dynamic ACLs with conduit errors. Proxy ARP does not work in a PVLAN. On a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch, the system experiences a random packet drop from the MM to the packet processor health check loopback interface. If a route prefix in a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch is more than 24, only 100,000 routes are stored in the hardware. For the route prefixes less than 24, then 512,000 routes are stored in the hardware. Extreme Networks does not support the same (S,G) stream entering a switch through multiple constituent VLANs of a private VLAN or VLAN aggregation. If a source moves from one constituent VLAN to another, run the clear igmp snooping command.

However, after rebooting, the following critical error message is not shown in the output of the show log command. <Crit:DM.Critical> Shutdown flag set for Switch -- disabling PD4-1738392317 PD4-1805624847 PD4-1436226210 When downloading an image using the rescue procedure, the new download has a different name than the regular download. Process HAL is terminated with signal 11 when 4,000 VLANs are configured and a system reboots. With default ethertype (0x88a8) configured, Summit X460 and X480 switches do not display an error message when adding a port as tagged to a vMAN when the port is already part of a tagged VLAN. When the port is already part of an EAPS control VLAN, EAPS goes to a failed state. A Summit X480 stack may get stuck in the backup state after running the show switch command after a system reboot or failover. VPLS is not sending untagged vMAN traffic type 88A8 through Summit X460 switches.

PD Number PD4-1676631313 Description When disabling sharing on a load-shared port that is part of multiple VLANs, VLAN statistics shows a - for some VLANs. Workaround: Unconfigure and reconfigure VLAN statistics. PD4-1659644826 PD4-1648023331 PD4-1664831900 VLAN statistics monitoring is unconfigured for a specific VLAN if the VLAN name is changed. A Summit family switch configured with MLAG does not reply to the first ARP request received on an ISC port. VLAN statistics are included in the output of the show configuration command for load-sharing member ports even after the unconfigure ports monitor vlan command is issued. Workaround: Disable sharing, remove the VLAN statistics configuration, and enable sharing. PD4-1673106807 PD4-1637091230 For certain match conditions involving SIPv6 and DIPv6, packets may not hit an ACL in a Summit X450a switch. With 4,000 VPWS sessions, traffic recovery takes approximately 8 minutes before a port flap occurs. Workaround: On a Summit X460, it is recommended that you only configure 1,000 VPWS instances. PD4-1589959110 PD4-1603951551 When adding ECMP routes using OSPF, a route flap occurs. On a Summit X460 stack, the following kernel warning is seen in the log during a failover. <Warn:Kern.Card.Warning> Slot-1: select_mux:line 250:I2C I/O operation failed PD4-1591238321 PD4-1590249340 PD4-749682632 PD3-127401831 PD4-1102582531 PD4-427423116 VM tracking repository synchronization is not working properly when using a remote FTP server. Clearing FDB entries when a Summit X480 switch learns 512,000 MAC addresses from MLAG ports disrupts MLAG peer TCP sessions. You cannot run the configure port auto on command on XGM2-2bt ports. On a Summit X250e platform with 128 VRRP instances that are advertised for 100 milliseconds, the feature "don't preempt" is not working properly. In a PVLAN, network login MAC-based authentication does not work in ExtremeXOS 12.4.0.19. When a dot1x client is authenticated at multiple VLANs, the output of the show netlogin port command shows the client is sometimes authenticated at the local server and other times at a RADIUS server. Note: This occurs when dot1x and MAC authentication are enabled on the port. PD4-1142692318 On Summit X480 switches, L3 multicast traffic sent from a service VLAN/vMAN to VPLS is not received at the VPLS peer. Workaround: When VPLS enabled VLANs exist on a port, all VLANs on that port must have IGMP snooping disabled. Also, the IP address cannot be configured on any other VLANs (including non-VPLS VLANs). Remove ports from the default VLAN. PD4-448681226 PD4-489142320 PD4-489359602 PD4-274249122 The show l2stats command does not count ARP packets to the CPU, even though the packet goes to the CPU. One Gigabit ports set to auto on flap twice during a switch reboot. Conflicting Link Fault Signal (LFS) alarms are shown when disabling local ports. If a Summit switch populated with an XGM2-2bt module is rebooted, a false link up is seen on 10G links connected to the XGM2-2bt ports approximately 30 to 50 seconds before the switch has fully booted.

Kerberos snooping does not work in some configurations on standalone and SummitStack switches. The output for the show version command does not include VIM and PSU on the master node, and the PSU version of the backup node. After upgrading to ExtremeXOS 12.5.1.4, the following error is shown in the log: <Erro:Kern.IPv4Mc.Error> Slot-1: Unable to Del IPmc vlan 924 for 1:15 s,G=a9e6f05,e1010028 IPMC 186, unit 0 Entry not found.

Process snmpMaster is terminated with signal 11 in a Summit X460 stack. Error messages are generated when trying to over-subscribe the bandwidth for an operationally up RSVP-TE LSP. The following error message is seen when operating a stack where the backup switch does not have the same feature pack licenses as the master switch. Error: Backup execution timed out, command execution aborted! Workaround: When using VRs, be sure that while forming the stack using mixed platforms, the master node and backup node have the same licenses feature pack. PD4-1655280966 Using a SummitStack, a system crash may occur after running the unconfigure mpls command and then loading scripts to configure MPLS. Workaround: Use the CLI to configure MPLS line by line. Do not use scripts to load a large MPLS configuration. PD4-1578136357 PD4-1547539868 PD4-928567091 During a stacking failover, ports on the PoE+ switch in the stack may go to a disabled state. On a SummitStack switch, OSPF adjacency is established when a mismatched link-type is configured. Running the synchronize command on a Summit X650 in a SummitStack causes the system to time out and the stack to not synchronize for an extended period of time This also results in the master node no longer being accessible. When a backup slot reboots and comes up, the switch experiences multiple stack link flaps. Traffic on load share ports configured as redundant ports incorrectly moves to other ports in the load share group during link transition. Learning is disabled by default on remote mirroring VLANs. Running the enable learning command on those VLANs may cause a loss of remote mirrored traffic. The valid value range for tags on remote-mirroring VLANs is 1 to 4,094. Use these values for configuring the remote tag in the enable mirroring command.

PD Number PD3-181304741 Description After inserting a XENPAK in a stack (XGM2-2xn, XGM-2xn) and performing an snmpwalk on the entityMib entPhysicalDescr variable, XGM- is always shown, not the complete module description. If a switch is added to a stack whose master switch has a license level that is greater than the level of the switch, the switch will fail. The complete condition can be seen using the show slot detail command. In this state, the switch does not have AAA services available. You will only be able to log into the switch using the failsafe account that was last assigned to it. You must log into the switch to upgrade the license. If the switch is not using the failsafe account configured on the stack, you can use the synchronize stacking {node-address <node-address> | slot <slotnumber>} command to copy the failsafe account information from the master switch to the failed switch NVRAM. You can also use the configure stacking license-level command to configure a license level restriction on the entire stack and then reboot the stack. Once the stack is restarted, there is no longer a license mismatch, enabling you to log into the switch and upgrade the license. From the master switch, run the unconfigure stacking license-level command to get the stack to operate at the desired license and then reboot the stack. PD3-126650411 A stackable system with two or more nodes may experience random VRRP master/ backup flapping issues after an MSM failover when configured with the maximum 128 VRRP instances using the minimum advertisement interval of 100ms and maximum tracking entries. After running the disable port all command on a SummitStack, some port LEDs may sometimes light green even though ports are not up. IPv6 neighbor-discovery in a management VLAN in a SummitStack resolves to the node address of the stack master, instead of the stack MAC address.

Performing a restart process mpls or restart process ospf on a spoke node in an HVPLS setup causes the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) peer to go down with the core node. Workaround: Disable and enable MPLS. PD4-475414370 The following warning message is seen numerous times after changing VLAN Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) mappings: <Warn:MPLS.LDP.InternalProb> PD4-475414505 PD4-475414558 PD4-452308541 PD3-157687121 In more complex topologies, detour Label Switched Path (LSP) connections are not set up. Changing a Label Switch Router (LSR) ID causes all Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) peers to go into a NonExistent state. The secondary pseudo wire on an ESRP master switch does not take the secondary core node pseudo wire after the primary core is rebooted. ExtremeXOS software uses Control Channel Type 2 to indicate router alert label mode. In MPLS Router Alert Label mode, VCCV packets are encapsulated in a label stack. However, the existing VCCV packets are sent like a stack without any PW label. When an LDP advertise static setting is set to all, all static routes are treated as egress routes and egress LSPs are created. That is, a label is generated and advertised for the static route. If the router at the end of the static route advertises a label matching that static route, the LSP that was previously an egress LSP becomes a transit LSP. An ingress LSP should also be created whenever a label is received, however, the ingress LSP is never created. Workaround: Do not use the LDP advertise static all configuration in situations where an ingress LSP for a static route is required. PD3-139423053 Running the show mpls rsvp-te lsp summary command on a system configured with 2,000 ingress LSPs takes an excessive amount of time to process. If you create a load sharing group (trunk), then enable mirroring to a port, the software allows you to add the mirroring port to the load sharing group. Enabling IP route compression may cause temporary slow path forwarding for some of the L3 traffic. Directed broadcast traffic is not being forwarded. Description

PD Number PD3-92653036 Description The show mpls label, show mpls rsvp-te label, and show mpls rsvp-te lsp command output currently does not display egress LSPs using advertised implicit NULL labels. When a router receives an explicit NULL label, it is incorrectly treated as an implicit NULL label, so rather than sending label 0, no label is sent. If either an egress or a transit LSP traverses the system, and an MPLS labelled packet containing a router alert label is received, that packet is not forwarded. Only VLANs configured as protocol any should be added to MPLS. When a traceroute is performed by setting the MPLS TTL to the IP TTL, ExtremeXOS does not correctly send back an ICMP response. The result is * characters in the traceroute for the routers that timed out. If a route is available, ExtremeXOS should attempt to send back an ICMP response. LDP should not advertise a label mapping for a direct VLAN that does not have IP forwarding enabled. When an explicit route object (ERO) is changed for an LSP session that is up, the LSP that is already up is not torn down. LSP stays up based on the older values. The retry count continues to increment as LSP tries to come up with new values by querying routes every 30 seconds. This is done while the earlier LSP session is still active using the previously configured values. See the retry count in the command output for the show mpls rsvp-te lsp <lsp_name> detail command.

Multicast traffic is not received even though the rendezvous point (RP) tree and source information is shown in the PIM cache table The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) group reports may occasionally change from Version 2 to Version 3. When a load-sharing group is a member of a mirrored VLAN, packets ingressing on the member of the load-sharing group in the mirrored VLAN should be mirrored. On the Summit family switches and BlackDiamond 8800 modules, packets ingressing on member ports other than the master port of the load-sharing group in the VLAN are not mirrored. Workaround: Packets ingressing non-master ports in the load sharing group on the mirrored VLAN can be mirrored by adding virtual port mirroring filters for each of the nonmaster member ports.

PD Number PD3-77983510 Description Summit X450a and Summit X450e series switches and BlackDiamond 8800 a-series and e-series modules provide more powerful ACL capabilities. Because of this, the amount and complexity of ACL rules will naturally impact the time needed to process and apply the ACL rules to the switch. This will also impact switch bootup time. Access Control List limitations fall into two areas: physical and virtual. Physical LimitsSummit X450a and Summit X450e series switches: The per-VLAN, wildcard (port any), and single-port access list installation limitations are 1,024 rules for the Summit X450e and 2048 rules for the Summit X450a. Physical LimitsBlackDiamond 8800 a-series and e-series modules: The per-VLAN, wildcard (port any), and single-port access list installation limitations are 1,024 rules for the e-series modules, and 2048 rules for the a-series modules. Extreme Networks recommends that you configure ACLs as per-VLAN, wildcard, or single-port. If either of the following is true, you will have to configure ACLs with multiport lists: Your application requires that ports do not have a homogeneous ACL policy. When BlackDiamond 8800 original series modules are operational in the same chassis, it may be necessary to configure ACLs to specific port-lists instead of as wildcard or perVLAN. This is because the original series modules have smaller physical limits. Virtual LimitsSummit X450a and Summit X450e series switches: When configuring a multi-port ACL, use the following guideline. The total ACL count (as calculated by ACL rules times ports applied to) should not exceed 48,000 total ACL rules. For example, applying a 1,000 rule policy file to a 48 port multi-port list is supported (1,000 rules * 48 ports in the list <= 48,000). Virtual LimitsBlackDiamond 8800 a-series and e-series modules: When configuring a multi-port ACL, use the following guideline. For any a-series or eseries blade in the system, its total ACL count (as calculated by ACL rules times ports applied to) should not exceed 48,000 total ACL rules. For example, applying a 1,000 rule policy file to a 48 port multi-port list on an a-series module on slot 1 and an e-series module in slot 2 is fine. Neither module exceeds the 48,000 total ACL rules. Excessive boot times and CPU resource starvation can be seen with larger total rule counts. If your application requires additional capacity, contact Extreme Networks. BlackDiamond 8800 Series Switch PD4-1911293817, PD4-1858470951 CLI sessions hang when executing the show port < port-num > transceiver information detail command while snmpwalk is running.

Software-controlled redundant ports may cause loops if a port is configured for redundancy after it is associated with an existing VLAN. The icmp-type match condition for ICMPv6 is not supported on Summit family and BlackDiamond 8800 series switches. FDB entries learned via LAG are not included in the output of the show fdb stats ports all command. The SNMP OID extremeCurrentTemperature does not return the current temperature of a switch. This is also seen when accessing the switch using ScreenPlay. The Node Manager process consumes excessive CPU usage on a backup MSM when the system uptime reaches 994 days. Running the disable netlogin port <slot:port> command while the slot is down causes the switch to drop the packets received on that port in hardware if the ethernet-source-address is not learned. This affects EAPSv1 control packets because the ethernet-souce-address in the EAPSv1 control packets is a special MAC and will never be learned. Enabling SSH using a license file fails with a warning message but an SSH key is generated anyway. A switch does not generate a "Remidfrmport" UPM event when disabling IdMgr globally. Telnet access profiles are blocking all IPv6 telnet connections. An NVPP policy file in a switch is not in sync with the repository policy file whenever there is a change in the repository policy file. Workaround: Create a new policy file containing the information in the old policy file.

Workaround: Enable the VLAN and reconfigure the flow-redirect configuration. Copying large configuration files through SCP fails. A mismatch between a PIM multicast cache and a hardware binding results in traffic loss. If remote mirroring is configured using an EAPS primary port, EAPS is disabled when the switch reboots. After changing the VPWS service VLAN tag, the change does not take effect. Workaround: Delete and re-add the VPWS. Multicast traffic is dropped with an EAPS shared port configuration during an EAPS topology change. Description

The show configuration ip-fix command does not return a configured flow-key if you only configure src-ip/dest-ip. It also removes the non-IP flow-key. When an unknown vendor ID is sent in a RADIUS accept packet, the log message does not print the unknown vendor ID. Running the configure flow-redirect <redirectname> no-active/healthcheck command resets a configured VR to a VR-Default. Workaround: Run the configure flow-redirect <redirectname> vr command after configuring the configure flow-redirect <redirectname> noactive/health-check command.

Set is working properly, but a get returns empty. The ACL action "copy-cpu-and-drop" is not copying EAPS control packets to the CPU. Running the save configuration command on an ExtremeXOS switch with a dual MSM, or a stack with a backup node, causes a memory leak in the CfgMgr process. A switch does not generate IdMgr XML notifications to a Web server when disabling IdMgr globally.
BlackDiamond 8800 Series Switch PD4-1921505342, PD4-1548261276 PD4-1899757948, PD4-1873304831 On a BlackDiamond 8800 series switch, traffic is not being redirected by the primary LACP port when the secondary MSM with secondary ports is rebooted on LACP during a process kill.

BlackDiamond 20800 Series Switch PD4-1905529131, PD4-1536990491 When a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch is an EAPS master, port QP1 increments instead of port QP8.
Summit Family Switches PD4-1879276738, PD4-1506829269 PD4-1910625750 PD4-1967466724 On Summit family switches, ethernet loopback tests fail when running extended diagnostics without an active management port. Leaving a setup running overnight on a Summit X480 switch causes memory depletion. When a port is added as untagged in a service vMAN and tagged in a service VLAN, traffic received on the service VLAN port may be sent using the untagged service vMAN tunnel. An interoperability issue with a VPLS L2 VPN includes a dot1q tag option on untagged service vMAN tunnels between ExtremeXOS 12.4.3 and ExtremeXOS 12.5.2 software. Summit X460 and X480 switches fail to display the switch serial number due to EEPROM corruption. EMS takes approximately 1-minute to report power status on a a Summit switch with a redundant PSU. A Summit X460 switch displays serial interrupt error messages when creating a VLAN using the create vlan v1 CLI command but VLAN creation is fine. A Summit family switch does not send a PSU related SNMP trap when a secondary PSU fails. On a Summit X450a-24x switch, disabling two or more ports causes a port that is inserted as a 10/100/1000BASE-T SFP module to flap.

IGMPv2 join and membership requests do not have the router alert IP option in the IP header set. DHCP snooping log messages display the incorrect port information when a LAG violation occurs. Description VPWS traffic does not flow if an LSP is changed from normal port to load-shared port and vice-versa. TX counters for VPLS and VPWS pseudo-wires are not supported on the Summit X460 switch. Duplicate BOOTP OFFER and ACK packets are seen when ip-security dhcpsnooping is enabled on a port. The output for the CLI command show odometer always shows values in the option card field even though there is no option card in the switch. Power status is not displayed on a Summit X650 switch in ScreenPlay if both PSUs are present but only one is powered on. When deleting a port from an ELRP configured VLAN, the switch displays errors after running the save and reboot commands. Traffic destined for a known MAC address in a member VLAN is being flooded on the ports of the network VLAN.

Therefore, traffic does not flow from a switch without a PVLAN end-point in the same VLAN. Local multicast packets (packets destined for a well known reserved multicast address such as 224.0.0.x) are flooded in hardware for BlackDiamond 8800 series and Summit family switches. The xmld process crashes with signal 6 when opening a SOAP session using a session ID larger than 64 characters. A switch continues to try to bind configured LDAP servers in a loop if the configured LDAP servers are not reachable in a network. When running the SSH process (exsshd), CPU usage is excessive and some SSH sessions are not cleared. When ELSM detects a link down, ELSM does not deactivate the port. Deleting a VLAN does not cleanup route entries learned by RIP through the VLAN. High CPU utilization messages are not logged while SNMP traps are sent. When a banner configuration file stored in a Windows environment is loaded, the banner configuration is not restored properly. Note: After unconfiguring a switch, the system banner message cannot be restored using a saved configuration. Workaround: Reconfigure the banner message. Description

The SSH process (exsshd) consumes 99% of CPU usage when running the clear session command after abruptly closing an SSH session (xterm client only). Using a dual MSM device, network policy files are not downloaded to a backup MSM because, in a failover scenario, VM tracking authentication does not work until completion of the repository synchronization. When TACACS is used for user authentication, the log message shows the wrong IP address of the user being authenticated. A telnet connection may be abruptly closed by a switch when multiple telnet connections are consecutively initiated in a short period of time. The output for the show configuration etmon | detail command does not show the disabled sFlow port. ExtremeXOS software does not correctly recognize the following mini-GBIC modules: PD4-1649655687, PD4-1417613295 PD4-1675097007, PD4-1081411076 PD4-1758727670, PD4-1695304439 PD4-1601514363 100FX/1000LX dual speed SFP, part number 4050-00020-02 100FX SFP, part number 4050-00030-03

The help text for the configure fdb vpls agingtime command displays the wrong possible values. The CLI allows RIP configurations for L2 VLANs. After completing a RIP configuration, running the show rip interface command causes the RIP process to die with signal 11. After configuring an EMS xml-notification target, the name of the target is not included in the output of the show configuration command. Using IdMgr, when running the clear iparp command or disabling IdMgr globally, an ACL/policy applied for a MAC-based identity is not correctly removed from the DUT, causing stale ACLs to remain in the DUT. With IdMgr enabled, an LDAP search fails for a dot1x client using EAP-TLS or EAPPEAP-certificate authentication. This causes a dot1x identity to remain in the authenticated role even though the user configured role exists in the DUT for this identity.

BlackDiamond 8800 Series Switch PD4-1865375583, PD4-1854613879 PD4-1544795181 On a BlackDiamond 8800 series switch, multicast packets are sent directly to the CPU instead of being forwarded in hardware. On a BlackDiamond 8800 series switch, the aggregate number of user created VRs and VRFs bound to ports of an I/O module are limited to the supported number of VRs for that module. Each newly created user VR or VRF is internally assigned an increasing identifier starting with 3. Ports bound to user VRs and VRFs must support the number of VRs equal to the internally generated identifier minus 1 for the VR/VRF or traffic is dropped. Create VRs and VRFs bound to ports of lesser scaling I/O modules first. A BlackDiamond 8800 series switch takes more than 30 minutes to boot up with VLAN aggregation configured. BlackDiamond 8800 series switches report "conduit failures" during bootup if the switch is configured with diffserv replacement enabled for more ports, as well as diffserv replacement mapping. When running the run msm failover command on a BlackDiamond 8800 series switch with an MPLS configuration, the following error may be displayed. MPLS bcm_mpls_port_add failed

PD Number PD4-1637395977 Description On a BlackDiamond 8800 series switch, the following error message may be logged when attempting to delete VPWS instances from a configuration. Failed to locate a VPLS peer for label 0 Workaround: Delete the VPWS/VPLS and the VLANs separately, or introduce a small delay (1 second) between deleting the VPWS/VPLS and deleting the VLAN. BlackDiamond 12800 Series Switch PD4-1820555211, PD4-1083288117 PD4-1667994741 Disabling and re-enabling a port that is configured for 100 Mbps full duplex with an attached dual speed SFP (100FX/1000LX) results in connectivity issues. When terminating or starting process IdMgr gracefully, the process crashes with signal 11, the switch reboots, and IdMgr role configuration is corrupted.
BlackDiamond 20800 Series Switch PD4-1633907245 A primary MSM may fail and reboot because of a dual master MSM while downloading and installing a new image using a larger number of routes and traffic. This issue is not reproducible using ExtremeXOS 12.5.2 software. After an I/O module hotswap, the show fdb command output does not show the FDB entries learned on particular slots. A BlackDiamond 20800 series switch forwards traffic with the wrong MAC address after receiving a gratuitous ARP request. IPv6 traffic stops forwarding on a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch after load sharing is disabled and enabled. RIPng convergence is not working correctly on a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch if a trunk port is removed and a new port is added. Establishing 255 ISIS adjacencies in multi-topology mode on a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch causes a HAL crash.

Summit Family Switches PD4-1662849321 IdMgr and HAL crashes with signal 11 occur after running UPM profiles for identity_detect, identity_undetect, identity_role_associate, and identity_role_disassociate. This issue is not reproducible in ExtremeXOS 12.5.2 software. Clients are not able to reach each other through a tunnel after running the clear fdb command or a link flap occurs on an MPLS cloud (LSR). Process BFD crashes on a Summit X460 switch after running the show bfd session command when scaling higher than 100 sessions. Workaround: Do not configure more than 75 sessions with an MPLS client.

VPLS Tx and Rx counters are not incrementing on Summit X460 switches. Power cycling a stack node causes a packet drop of 8 seconds in some rare scenarios even though LAG is configured across stack nodes. The show fdb command output does not show the pseudo-wire FDBs after a port is disabled and enabled. TX VLAN statistics are not correct. Some ports count double and others do not count at all. Traffic is not going over a tagged VPLS service VLAN if an untagged service vMAN is configured on the same port. The cfgmgr crashes with signal 11 due to NULL pointer access.

PD Number PD4-1545813874 Description Process HAL consumes more than 90% CPU utilization when DUT tries to add or delete 500 ACLs for 25 MAC-based identities. Because of this, the console/telnet session response time is slow or it does not respond at all. Workaround: Configure only dynamic ACLs or policy files on the switch for identity manager. Using a combination of these on a switch, results in system instability. SummitStack PD4-1877966227 When an MLAG peer node is rebooted, the following error message appears in the log and traffic loss is seen on the VPLS pseudo-wires connected to the MLAG nodes. <Erro:HAL.FDB.Error> Slot-2: Add mac 00:00:a1:01:1c:e8 Entry failed : VPLS Instance for vlan 1600 not found PD4-1801215991, PD4-580973662 PD4-1820711478, PD4-1276532265 PD4-1686778851 ACL PD4-1828332349, PD4-1809345751 The HAL process dies with signal 11 if the refresh policy fails and the following error is displayed.

Workaround: Add the service vMAN/VLAN port to any IGMP snooping enabled VLAN and delete the port from that VLAN. For example: configure vlan default add port 21 tagged configure vlan default del port 21 PD4-1660127877 OSPF PD4-1841878451, PD4-1524171924 Not all of the AS external routes in OSPF are getting installed in the route table. When MPLS PHP is enabled on a label edge router, LSP does not go through if the BlackDiamond 8800 series switch is an LSR. IGMP membership query packets are seen on a port when IGMP is disabled but IGMP snooping is enabled. To resolve this issue, run the disable igmp proxy-query vlan <vlan-name> command. EAPSv2 segment health-check packets received on a ring port may be dropped if the EAPS node on a Summit family or BlackDiamond 8800 series switch has a different EAPS shared port on any other ring ports. BGP and MSDP may not establish a secure TCP connection to their peers when an encrypted password contains a special character such as #. Configuring a dynamic ACL with flow-redirect does not work after a switch reboot. Workaround: After rebooting the switch, delete and add the ACL. Unconfiguring a management IP address removes the default route configured using the configure stacking alternate-ip-address [<ipaddress> <netmask> | <ipNetmask>] <gateway> automatic command. The stacking port LEDs on the front and rear panel of a SummitStack do not light if you remove and reconnect the stacking cable. ACL synchronization does not occur with a backup MSM or slot when running the run failover command, so no ACLs are applied for identity management identities.

Traffic ingressing a G48T, G48P, G24X, G8X, or 10G4X module that egresses a load sharing member port on a different I/O module is dropped when a 8900-MSM128 module is in use. In the case of a stack that contains an original series Summit X450 and X650, traffic ingressing the Summit X450 that egresses a load sharing member port on a Summit X650 switch is also dropped. Only certain LAG groups are affected, most notably, the first LAG group is not affected. Process exsshd consumes 99% of CPU capacity when executing the clear session command.

When running ExtremeXOS PIM-SM in a multi-access case (that is, an EAPS ring): PD4-1524186073, PD4-1142795450 A downstream router should not send periodic (S,G) prunes. Over-riding a PIM-JOIN message is delayed when multiple (S,G) prunes are received.
PD4-1493262869, PD4-1350258611
The ExtremeXOS CLI may allow load sharing groups to be formed using ports with different link speeds. Workaround: Do not change the speed settings before enabling LACP on the remote switch.

HAL process dies with signal 6 when issuing the debug hal show ipv4mc gaddr command with an invalid IP address.
BlackDiamond 8800 Series Switch PD4-1646744176, PD4-1646617211 PD4-1639563871, PD4-1633773021 PD4-1633677741 When rebooting a BlackDiamond 8800 series switch, ports remain active for approximately 10 seconds. There is a potential for a smbus_xfer:1 smbus_wait_rdy error with frequent SSH and telnet management login/logout sessions. On a BlackDiamond 8800 series switch, making link state changes during a large policy refresh can take more than 20 seconds and may cause duplicate packet forwarding in an MLAG configuration. When using BlackDiamond 8800 series switches or Summit family switches that support user VRs, IP multicast packets are slowpath forwarded with the default VLAN using the default configuration. Workaround: Change the VLAN tag of the default VLAN. PD4-1601047171, PD4-1598240578 PD4-1530467581, PD4-1535593829 PD4-1424690937, PD4-805462597 PD4-1518161071, PD4-1521499552 STP crashes when making topology changes to a domain name containing more than 29 characters. Workaround: Use STP domain names that are less than 30 characters. An untagged packet that is size 1,518 and ingressing an 8900-G48X-xl module is getting slowpath L3 forwarded. A slot fails on a BlackDiamond 8800 series switch when enabling dot1p examination inner-tag ports on more than 24 ports in a vMAN. L2 traffic ingressing a 10G8X-xl I/O module for a MAC that is learned in another slot (G48Tc) is being dropped in some cases.

On a BlackDiamond 10800 series switch, an MSM failover results in too many SNMP traps (extremePortMauChangeTrap) being sent. ESMI related warning messages are seen in the output of the show log command whenever an SSL certificate with a key length of 4,096 is created or the HTTPD process is restarted. Fans on a BlackDiamond 10800 switch may run at a higher RPM, causing unacceptable noise levels.
BlackDiamond 20800 Series Switch PD4-1527934161, PD4-1522821191 PD4-1438460992, PD4-1402199417 A BlackDiamond 20800 series switch crashes when a new VLAN translation member VLAN is added. The system appears to run out of multicast/flooding PSI resources. While running diagnostics on a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch with an XM-8XB module in slot 2, and only one XFM-1 in slot 1, the output of the run diagnostics command shows the following error. Diag Version=1.0.1.7. Exos Version=12.4.1.7 S/N=09366-80141 System Test | FABRIC Connectivity: Device 3 Link 19 Failed PD4-1265032583, PD4-1235317131 Running the show access-list counter command on a BlackDiamond 20800 series switch causes a buffer leak, which results in a slot failure and conduit error.

PD Number PD4-1552576654, PD4-1508905375 PD4-1585599449, PD4-1409776545 Description A BlackDiamond 20800 series switch is unable to ping and learn ARP traffic in a vMAN and VLAN interconnected network setup. When receiving a specific CFM packet, the switch displays the following error message: Error: can't read xmlData.
Summit Family Switches PD4-1634882180, PD4-1634368131 PD4-1101069206 PD4-1368980540 PD4-1601466170 When multiple FDB entries share a common set of egress ports spread across units, traffic to certain MAC addresses may not be forwarded on all the ports (ESP ports on alternate units). When configuring 2,000 VPWS instances, only 1,023 VPWS instances are created. Untagged vMAN VPLS service does not encapsulate all VLANS When configuring configure mlag ports convergence-control fast, no warning message appears when all the ACL slice resources have been used by the user ACL. This may lead to a major outage because if a user configures fast mode, traffic is not forwarded when the MLAG port goes down. When applying an ACL on a Summit X450a switch, the following error is generated: Error: ACL install operation failed - slice hardware full for port. A Summit X250-24P switch is unable to upgrade to ExtremeXOS 12.4.1 or later due to an unnecessary file in Compact Flash. Reinstalling the "pktcapt.o" debug module causes a switch to crash in certain scenarios. In a VPWS between a Summit X480 and a third-party switch that are directly attached, that is, no LSRs in the middle, if the third-party switch advertizing an implicit null next hop, the Summit X480 switch sends out the VPLS VPN traffic with only an explicit null label.

Workaround: Run the edit policy <policy-name> command and save the policy file. You do not need to change the contents of the policy file. BGP PD4-1227697209, PD4-1088907253 BGP does not withdraw routes that are not preferred routes from neighbors to which the routes were previously advertised. A test port remains active while the port is disabled and a 10/100/1000BASE-T miniGBIC and SFP I2C read/write failure 5557 occurs. On a SummitStack, WAN-PHY error counters are not correct on the backup or standby node. UPM becomes active before configuration check pointing is complete, causing the UPM script to fail. On a Summit X480-24x switch with a 10/100/1000 BASE-T copper SFP, ports do not work properly if the speed is set to Auto Off. In a SummitStack configuration, the switch sends the wrong SNMP traps when the link status of a stacking port changes.

When configuring an SNMP target-addr table using a MIB, SNMPv3 incorrectly sets the VR option and traps are not sent. If the execCLI XML API is run with specific commands such as top or edit on an ExtremeXOS switch, the switch becomes unresponsive. A switch may hang when running the restart process thttpd command when the CPU utilization for thttpd reaches 99.9%. Configuring a QoS profile for all ports using the all keyword fails if load-sharing is configured on the switch. Receiving LS updates for an AS-External LSA with an invalid prefix length (a length of 128 or higher) causes the OSPFv3 process to die with signal 11. OSPFv3 process crashes when an ASBR that was reachable through multiple areas goes down. In web-based Netlogin, the Logout popup window is displayed momentarily then disappears, and the Logout page has the wrong information when logout privilege is disabled. RADIUS Access and Accounting requests should be sent using the NAS-Port attribute for 802.1x-based network login. On a Summit X480 switch, when a VPLS service VLAN port is changed to a load-shared port, traffic ingressing the load-shared port is dropped. In RIP, an output route policy is applied to an input route policy internally after changing and refreshing the output route policy file. If EAPS ring ports are added to a VLAN before protecting the VLAN from EAPS, the EAPS secondary port may not be blocking the protected VLAN. The ExtremeXOS CLI does not prevent a user from enabling BOOTP on an EAPS control VLAN. Description

After setting dot1dStp SNMP OIDs, the switch experiences an STP process crash with signal 11. A "new root" trap is always generated when a link up or link down occurs on an edge safeguard port in an MSTP domain.
