Resolved Issues, Platform-Specific, and Feature Change Requests (CRs) in ExtremeXOS 21.1.3-Patch1-4

CR Number Description
General
xos0052786 BGP aggregation command demands global unicast addresses (GUA) and does not work with IPv6 unicast addresses.
xos0054222 Unable to add second IPv6 address prefix to the network-zone after adding IPv4 address.
xos0064727

On DHCPv6 clients, sometimes the IPv6 address is not removed even after disabling the client, and after rebooting, the IPv6 address is saved and this causes the client to go into a stopped state with the following error message appearing:

<Erro:vlan.AddIPAddrFail> Failed to add IP addr 8001::4aa6:dd38:9b32:e7b/128 from DHCPv6 to VLAN client, DHCPv6 configured IPv6 address already exist on interface client
xos0065654 Etmon process ends unexpectedly with signal 10 when packet size in sampled packet is a negative integer.
xos0066072 The command configure ports rate-limit flood out-actions disable-port does not take effect until the command clear meter out-of-profile is executed.
xos0066444 Kernel error "Unable to copy IPMC index" appears in MLAG peers with PIM dense mode.
xos0066590 In an MLAG peer when its MLAG port is down, the following error appears: "Group <ip> not found for VLAN".
xos0066770 Memory leak occurs in aaa process when NetLogin dot1x client times out or authentication fails for the client.
xos0066775 Configured peer group capabilities and policies are not reflected after creating a new BGP neighbor.
xos0066874 Memory leak observed in AAA process when dot1x clients are authenticated frequently.
xos0066923 Need commands to configure "reload-delay" timer for MLAG ports.
xos0066931 Exsshd process consumes ~90% CPU when the command clear session is executed for the open SSH sessions.
xos0066982 In NetLogin dot1x, RADIUS retries are not working properly.
xos0067055 Log message "Process exsshd sends hello too often" appears when SSH is enabled in the switch.
xos0067076 NetLogin process ends unexpectedly while fetching the client details using SNMP MIB etsysMACAuthenticationMACSession and it happens only when there is MAC move observed for the clients.
xos0067194 Topology change notification is not generated for the STP domain dot1d mode when there is change in the topology.
xos0067203 Multicast packets are being flooded on EAPS blocked port while removing and adding the ports configured with PSTAG.
xos0064672 Incorrect state observed for DHCPv6 client when restarting the nettools process or rebooting the switch.
xos0066489 Loop occurs in ERPSv2 setup after rebooting one of the interconnecting nodes.
xos0066490 ERPS in non-RPL nodes remains in pending state after rebooting interconnection node.
xos0062966

When rendezvous point receives (*, G) join, and it has (S, G, RPT) entry, the entry should be converted to (S, G), and (S, G) join should be sent upstream. However, sometimes wrong assert is triggered and this new entry is dropped after a minute, resulting in complete traffic loss.

Workaround: Disable, and then re-enable PIM.
xos0066012 ExtremeXOS MIBs have non-compilable errors.
xos0066030 L2PT is not working properly after path switchover in VPWS.
xos0066386 The show configuration commands stops responding and produces an error when there is a loop in the network.
xos0066518 LLDP packets are reflected back to the sender without echo kill in PVLAN.
xos0066813 Service VLAN ARP packets are lifted to the CPU during MPLS swap operation when service a VLAN is configured with the IP address of the provider switch.
xos0066891 Packets are being forwarded without a tag after rebooting when PSTAG configured. This issue occurs when VLANs are configured with VID as "1".
xos0066926 Errors occur when configuring OpenFlow in passive mode.
xos0066950

Hash collision error messages may appear when there is contention for the L3 Hash table:

<Warn:Kern.IPv4Adj.Warning> vrId 0 adj 0x00000002 Error finding adjacency when deleting hash collision.
xos0066986 OSPF E1 routes in NSSA area are removed/not updated properly in the routing table

xos0067138 BFD is not working for IP static multicast route.
xos0066774 IPv6 flow redirect does not work after slot is disabled, and then enabled again.
xos0066040

Error message appears when adding a CEP port to a VMAN:

<Erro:HAL.MPLS.Error> pibAddCVIDMappedServices: vlan 1000 tagged 0 cepPvid 100
xos0066667 With VPLS, multicast traffic for service VLAN is dropped after disabling and enabling the LAG ports if same port is configured as untagged in VMAN and tagged in VLAN.
xos0063856 On enabling SSH2, switch displays key generation time as approximately 15 minutes whereas it actually takes less than one minute.
xos0067328 If you load a configuration file containing an SSH key length lesser than the actual key size stored in the switch EEPROM, the following message appears during bootup: "Enter passphrase:".
xos0063261 Warning message to "restart process exsshd" should appear when configuring SSH2 key.
xos0066406 Scaled PStag configuration with non-PStag VLANs causes PStag error messages and installation of additional IPMC rules.
NWI Series Switches
xos0066301 Transceiver is not detected on NWI platforms.
SummitStack
xos0067096 Multicast traffic is dropped on front panel port 1:1 when management port goes down on stacking switch.
xos0067253 IPv4 packets ingressing a non-master stack node can be dropped when the port number of the destination's ARP entry is unknown, such as when the destination is using Network Load Balancing (NLB).
xos0066423 In SummitStacks, with policy re-authentication and continuous MAC move scenarios, ACL delete requests are failing in backup node.
