Workaround: Avoid the growing usage of startup-cfg by making configuration changes without config session/commit. Once startup-cfg usage hits 100%, the configuration save to startup will fail. Recovery is by switch reload. The running configuration can be saved to bootflash if additional configuration can't be saved to the bootflash. |

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. |

Headline: Traffic forwarding issues may occur on port-channel having VLAN configured which doesn't exist in database
· If there is a native VLAN configured which does not exist in VLAN database, then that VLAN should be created. · Configuration of native VLAN pointing to non-existing VLAN should be removed and after that switch should be reloaded. · If there is VLAN allowed on trunk which exist in PIXM table but do not exist in running-config vlan configuration, then that VLAN should be either excluded from port-channel or added to VLAN running-config. The switch should also be reloaded. · However, since VLAN does not exist in running-config and exist in certain switch tables, reload ascii should be considered. |
