Headline: N9K-C9364C:100G copper link flaps continuously in MacSec mode Symptoms: Link continues to flap when you have 100G copper cable on N9K-C9364C running macsec. If macsec and copper connection is needed, disable auto negotiation. However, in this case, link will still not come up after ascii reload. No issue with binary reload. |
|
Headline: N9K-C9364C: 40g copper link is not up after placing in place of QSA with macsec config Symptoms: Link not coming up. Workarounds: After you replace QSA with a 40G copper cable, you will need a reload to bring the link back. |

Workarounds: If the Python application only requires use of the CliMgr module, the application may be started from bash. There is no application level change that will impact this issue. |
|
Headline: HMM core seen after vpc-link up , some svi are suspended Symptoms: Some SVI (Interface vlan xx) interfaces remain in suspended state after switch reload. A crash of the hmm process is also observed. Core should be saved ideally. Workarounds: Remove and reconfigure arp suppression on the suspended vlan/vni. |
|

|
Headline: Credit Loss Recovery is not triggered for FC interface with no transmit credits. Symptom: A Fibre Channel interface that stays at 0 transmit credits is not recovered by the Credit Loss Recovery agent. Workaround: If the interface has switchport ignore bit-errors configured, then remove it with the no switchport ignore bit-errors interface configuration command. |

Headline: Custom COPP causing transit traffic to be punted to the CPU on Nexus 9300-GX2 Symptoms: When custom-COPP policy contains ACL rules which match on Layer 4 destination or source port, transit traffic also hits the COPP and the packets are copied to CPU. This causes duplication of traffic as CPU also routes the copied packets to the destination. Workarounds: Custom COPP policy using src/dst match mitigates punt for transit traffic. |

Workarounds: No workaround, although one could consider configuring the routers to not switch to shortest path tree. |
|
Headline: TRM drops first multicast packet Symptoms: In a tenant routed multicast EVPN network the first packet of a multicast stream is used to create the (S,G) and is subsequently dropped.

Bug ID |
Description |
Error message is seen rarely when a huge file (greater than 1GB) is copied to the USB first time after reload. There is no functional impact to the copy command itself. |
|
If you enable and disable a feature using a script in one VSH terminal session and execute those feature related commands in another terminal session, the behavior is unpredictable. Configuring and deleting the same parser chain in multiple VSH sessions is not supported. You must refrain from entering feature specific show CLI commands from a different VSH session when the same feature is being disabled in another terminal session. Doing so might even result in a VSH crash. There is no functional impact or SSO or reload due to this crash. |
|
During re-key when conf_offset for a macsec policy is updated dynamically, packet drop for ~100ms is observed. This is a known hardware limitation. |
|
When running debug tool, ethanalzyer autostop duration does not work and does not automatically stop the packet capture. This is an expected behavior. |
