This section documents possible unexpected behavior by Cisco IOS XE Release 2.4.4.
•CSCsv66827
When clearing the SSH sessions from a VTY session causes the ASR 1000 Router Series to crash.
Workaround:There is no workaround.
•CSCsx13031
The Route Processor (RP) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router may reload unexpectedly shortly after switchover.
This condition is observed when the redundancy force-switchover command is executed immediately (within seconds) after the system reaches Stateful Switchover (SSO) mode.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz01980
The RP1 may experience unexpected watchdog timeout and reload.
Under very rare conditions, an RP1 may experience a watchdog timeout during boot or shutdown and subsequently generate a kernel core dump.
Workaround: No known workaround; following reload, the RP works as expected.
•CSCsz21624
When doing no router ospf a message similar to the following may be seen:
%IPRT-3-NDB_STATE_ERROR: NDB state error (BAD EVENT STATE) (0x0) 10.10.10.3/32, state 7, event 0->4, nh_type 1 flags 4 -Process= "OSPF-1 Router", ipl= 0, pid= 268
The following conditions have been observed:
1. When there are significant number of IGP routes.
2. An interface has OSPF configured on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router, while running and comes up, when cleanup of the OSPF process is in progress.
Workaround: Is to remove any network statements in OSPF before removing the OSPF instance.
•CSCsz47878
When provisioning LI tap with the same session ID when Radius has been configured on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router, there is a chance that traceback is observed.
This condition has been observed when an invalid provision of LI tap is used. A unique session ID should be used for each session provisiioning.
Workaround: Is to use a unique session ID for each session to be provisioned.
•CSCsz62927
Sometimes header-compression commands may disappear from the configuration after reload has happened on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router.
This condition has been seen when the following commands seems to be disappear after reload:
ip rtp header-compression ip tcp header-compression
Workaround: None
•CSCsz83305
L2TP tunnel resync duration on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router is observed to be significantly longer an RP2 Route Processor compared to an RP1 Route Processor. For example, around 90 seconds on an RP2 vs 30 seconds on an RP1 for the same number of tunnels (12 000).
This condition has been observed when the scaling numbers reached over 24k sessions and 12k tunnels.
Workaround: None
•CSCta31582
The netflow export command ip flow-export version 9 bgp-nexthop by itself has no effect meaning no BGP nexthop information is placed into the Netflow cache or records as a result of the bgp-nexthop token. If instead the commmands ip flow-export version 9 origin-as bgp-nexthop or ip flow-export version 9 origin-as are issued, then BGP nexthop information is included in all cases.
This can occur on any Cisco ASR 1000 Router when running the NetFlow feature.
Workaround: The workaround is covered in the above description. If BGP Nexthop info is desired configure either <origin-as> or <peer-as> in the exporter command and this will cause BGP Nexthop information to appear in the cache and the export records.
•CSCta35043
There are numerous amount of chunk leaks observed when using tcl scripting commands on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router. This condition has been seen when configuring and unconfiguring the tcl scripting related commands, numerous chunk leaks are observed.
Workaround: None
•CSCta37670
The ASR 1000 Router crash as a longer interrupt hold, when a single MPLS scales up to 300K prefixes.
This instance occurs only when a single MPLS with 300K prefixes. The issue does not occur with 100 prefixes.
Workaround: Is not to run 300 prefixes.
•CSCtb13902
Password encryption with key config-key command on one end of tunnel results in IPSec session to fail.
This condition has been with a back to back router running IPSec6.
Workaround: None
•CSCtb30072
With a 1K DMVPN spoke, if you un/re-configure tunnel protection several times and un/re-configure tunnel interface may reset both Embedded Services Processors (ESPs).
Workaround: After unconfiguring a tunnel interface with 1K DMVPN spoke, wait for a few seconds before reconfiguring the same tunnel interface with same DMVPN configuration.
•CSCtb37274
If billing is enabled with a valid cache path as part of the SBC configuration, and records are being written to a removable device, such as a USB drive, and the device is removed from the router, an unexpected system reload can occur.
This issue occurs if billing records are being written to a removable device and while operations are active, the device is removed from the router. Upon replacing the device and attempting to deactivate billing, an unexpected system reload occurs.
Workaround: To avoid this issue, do not remove the device billing records are cached to while records are being processed.
•CSCtb49373
When static route is pointing to next-hop (without exiting an interface)this does NOT get removed from the routing table when route towards next-hop disappears on the ASR 1000 Router Series.
This condition may occur when there is a less specific static route including the prefix of the static route are not removed.
Workaround: Is to specify an exit interface in addition of next-hop.
•CSCtc45832
When tracking stops the data-plane logs out of the PKT-MEM trace log this problem will occur on the ASR 1000 Router Series the sessions will be dropped and the QoS hierarchy will shut down. There also will be pending queue objects waiting to be flushed out in the list.
The following command will show the BQS RM status:
show plat hard qfp act inf bqs stat
In rare conditions, an error may occur for extreme over-subscribed enviroments. When sending 10G (For example: 5G as priority, and 5G as non-priority) traffic to a 1G interface.
All priority and control packets are dropped by the hardware this occur when the packet buffers are depleted; and when the schedule stops forwarding output packets
Workaround: There is no known workaround to this problem.
•CSCtd58836
When changing DMVPN tunnel source this may result in having hung sessions on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router.
This condition has been seen when the Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series is running IOS XE 2.4 and up to 12.2(33)XND2.
Workaround: Is to shutdown the tunnel interfaces before changing their physical source interfaces.
•CSCtd75807
OSPF route convergence may be slow when a large number of prefixes are to be downloaded to the ESP.
This condition may only occur when using RP1 and ESP-10 blades.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCte81385
When show network-clock indicates a "valid" BITS clock state as "valid but not present" on the ASR 1000 Router Series. When a "valid" state BITS clock is removed and re-added, then show network-clock indicates BITS state as "valid but not present" even though the Active Source indicates as BITS.
Workaround: There is no workaround. This seems to be a display issue with the show network-clock cli output due to the fact that BITS is indicated as the Active Source.
•CSCte83888
When PoD request contains target Acct-Session-Id prepended with NAS-Port-ID
it will not be honored.
This condition has been observed, when PoD prepended is configured with NAS-Port-Id for target sessions.
Workaround: Is to use only the Session-Id which is located after the, "_" in the Account-Session-ID
to specify the session needing disconnect.
•CSCte82240
SBC accepts "." when key_addr_type is "DIALED_DIGITS". This condition can occur, when set exact matching means has been set as:
rpsRtgActionKeyAddrWildcardType to AMB_MW_EXPLICIT_WILDCARD.
This is possible to have a "." when rpsRtgActionKeyAddrType is set to AMB_MW_ADDR_TYPE_DIALED_DIGITS. However, it is no longer allowed when rpsRtgActionKeyAddrWildcardType is AMB_MW_EXPLICIT_WCARD (which means SBC should perform an explicit match).
Workaround: None
•CSCte97907
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Router with RP2 may get out of sync with NTP master every 18 minutes for approximately 1 minute. This may offset the NTP Master which will cause an increase up to -1052.1 msec and the sync will get lost.
This instance has been observed, when NTP is enabled and running apr. 20 minutes.
Workaround: None
Resolved Caveats—Cisco IOS XE Release 2.4.4
All the caveats listed in this section are resolved in Cisco IOS XE Release 2.4.4
•CSCsw67249
When a Cisco ASR 1000 Router is acting as a relay, a request for an IP address from a DHCP client fails when the DHCP client is set to unicast.
This symptom is observed when DHCP clients and the DHCP server are in the same VRF and the DHCP clients are set to unicast.
Workaround: If the DHCP clients allow it use broadcast method.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCsx66105
Chunk memory leaks at SADB SA Header are seen on a Group Domain of Interpretation (GDOI) group member.
This symptom is observed when IPsec security associations (SAs) are cleared using the command clear crypto gdoi.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCsy23839
On Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series, CPU utilization of SIP (SPA Interface Processor) may be 100%.
This symptom is observed with the following procedure:
1. Open a terminal window for telnet to ASR 1000.
2. Telnet to ASR 1000.
3. Run the request platform software console attach x/x (login SIP IOS) command.
4. Close the terminal window without exiting from SIP IOS.
5. You can see that the ioscon process is not terminated and its CPU utilization is around 100% by the monitor platform software process command.
Workaround: Resetting the SIP resolves the issue.
•CSCsz83570
SSH sessions disconnect during large data exchanges, such as large logs with pagers.
The symptom is observed when large amounts of data are exchanged between both ends: client and server (i.e.: the client provides a large input to the server and the server has a large output to send to the client). The session gets hung momentarily and disconnects after the timeout period of 120 seconds.
Workaround: Use 3DES for encryption.
•CSCta23902
On a DMVPN router, when the IPSec SAs are deleted, the NHRP holdtime is set to be 5 seconds. This 5 seconds gap between IPSec and the corresponding NHRP cache entry could cause the spoke to spoke tunnel to bounce under certain timing conditions.
This symptom only occurs under certain timing conditions.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCta46347
Connecting a 2 or 4 port OC48 POS SPA{SPA-2XOC48-POS/RPR or SPA-4XOC48-POS/RPR} back to back with either 1, 2 or 4 port OC48 POS SPA{SPA-2XOC48-POS/RPR or SPA-4XOC48-POS/RPR or SPA-1XOC48-POS/RPR} could push the corresponding POS inteface into down/down with SLOS.
This symptom is a timing related issue and could be triggered with the following sequence of operations:
1. Insert the 2 or 4 port OC48 SPA{SPA-2XOC48-POS/RPR or SPA-4XOC48-POS/RPR} without any cable connected.
2. Connect the cables.
3. Do 'no shut' (enable) on the ports.
This could result in the POS interfaces being stuck in SLOS.
Workaround: Enable (do no shut) the ports before fiber is connected.
•CSCtb79600
IPSec tunnel does not come back up after issuing the clear crypto session command at the hub.
This symptom is observed when bringing up a 2547oDMVPN (RFC 2547) network with one hub and one spoke, and the clear crypto session command is issued at the hub.
Workaround: Issue the clear crypto session command at the spoke.
•CSCtc14197
The following Traceback is seen on the router console following which FP reloads:
*Sep 23 09:37:04.432 UTC: %CPPOSLIB-3-ERROR_NOTIFY: F0: cpp_cp: cpp_cp encountered an error -Traceback= 1#3c307 1031ab84e4601e29a1edaf6b55a errmsg:D976000 1C00 cpp_common_os:E0C6000 B7C0 cpp_common_os:E0C6000 18B78 cpp_exmem_mgr:ED34000 894C cpp_wccp_svr_lib:F5DB000 E508 cpp_wccp_svr_lib:F5DB000 107AC cpp_wccp_svr_lib:F5DB000 ACB0 cpp_wccp_svr_lib:F5DB000 7368 cpp_common_os:E0C6000 10618 cpp_common_os:E0C6000 1097C evlib:DD2D000 DBA4 evlib:DD 2D000 FED4 cpp_common_os:E0C6000 11F18 :10000000 3DD0 c:BE2D200 1D078
This symptom is observed when WCCP is un-configured in a specific fashion:
ip wccp 61
ip wccp 62
interface gigabitEthernet 1/3/2
ip wccp 61 redirect in
ip wccp 62 redirect in
no ip wccp 62
no ip wccp 61
interface gigabitEthernet 1/3/2
no ip wccp 61 redirect in
no ip wccp 62 redirect in
Workaround: Un-configure WCCP by removing the service applied on the interface first and then removing the global wccp configuration:
interface gigabitEthernet 1/3/2
no ip wccp 61 redirect in
no ip wccp 62 redirect in
no ip wccp 61
no ip wccp 62
•CSCtc24940
Tracebacks are seen when crypto profile is applied when L2TP sessions are being brought up.
This symptom is observed when a crypto profile is not defined and applied to vpdn-group while sessions are being brought up.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtc61038
Tracebacks are seen after removing and adding the Web Cache Communication Protocol (WCCP) service.
This symptom is observed while traffic is flowing through the router.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtc79484
Statistics for max-entries limit are not shown.
This symptom is observed for ASRNAT under all conditions.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtc87430
The following errors are seen on Active RP during RP switchover with scaled sessions (around 5k):
asr1000 bsess: RPC header processing failed, error=5001.
This symptom is observed when the setup is:
Agilent---(atm)---MCP----(10GB)-----LNS(c10k)-----Agilent
and the steps followed are:
1. Configure MCP as LAC with Model D2.1 QOS
2. Start session bring-up
3. At aroung 5k session, issue RP swo4. Noticed errors on new Active RP
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtc91560
High CPU utilization occurs.
The symptom is observed with session churn.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtd00489
A traceback indicating that the object was being deleted before the ideal exponent is invalidated is logged.
This symptom is observed while an ATM VC schedule is being deleted. A schedule object is freed before its ideal exponent is invalidated. This condition is treated as an error because it points to a missing step in cleaning up prior to destroying an object since it could potentially impact the rate accuracy in the future.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtd05011
A buffer overflow can occur which does not have a known impact on router behavior, but may result in a potential memory access violation.
This symptom occurs when the random number generator function is triggered.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtd21590
RP crashes after executing no import ipv4 unicast map filter command.
This symptom is observed when BGP import events debugging is on with debug ip bgp import updates or debug ip bgp import event.
Workaround: Do not enable debug ip bgp import event or debug ip bgp import update.
•CSCtd22064
An ASR 1000 Router Series will crash when removing SBC configuration after a failover.
During normal call operations a failover is initiated via CLI. Normal call operations continue without issue after the failover. After stopping all calls, the SBC configuration is removed and the ASR 1000 will crash.
Workaround: Do not remove SBC configuration.
•CSCtd25664
1. ERSPAN session are not sending traffic to the analyser.
2. ERSPAN session are not filtering traffic as expected on the router.
This condition has been observed, when the Cisco ASR 1000 Router is running 12.2(33)XND1 and previous versions.
1. ERSPAN configured with vlan filtering
2. ERSPAN configured with vlan sourcing
Workaround:
1. Filter traffic on the analyser.
2. There is no known workaround.
•CSCtd38347
CPP can run out of memory and cause FPs to reload.
This symptom is observed when flapping LNS firewall sessions are running over time on the router.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtd61194
When configuring ERSPAN on FastEthernet, gives an error:
SPAN is not supported on SPA interface
ASR1K(config-mon-erspan-src)#source interface ?FastEthernet FastEthernet IEEE 802.3GigabitEthernet GigabitEthernet IEEE 802.3z Port-channel Ethernet Channel of interfaces TenGigabitEthernet Ten Gigabit Ethernet ASR1K(config-mon-erspan-src)#source interface fastEthernet 0/3/0 SPAN is not supported on SPA interface (FastEthernet0/3/0)ASR1K(config-mon-erspan-src)#
This symptom is observed on Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series running Version 2.4.1 of Cisco IOS XE.
Workaround: Configure ERSPAN on GigabitEthernet.
•CSCtd68955
FMAN-FP may crash with netflow configuration.
This symptom is observed on ASR1000 Router Series with enabled 2k interfaces, with full and sampled netflow in both ingress and egress direction, and router boot up with netflow configuration.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtd72416
An error message with a traceback is observed on the router console in the format:
%FRAG-3-REASSEMBLY_DBG: Reassembly/VFR encountered an error: VFR failed at refrag:, first fragment length 370, non-first frag total length 608.
The length values may change depending on the actual fragmented packets received by the router.
This symptom is observed when the IP Virtual Reassembly (VFR) feature is enabled on the interface that receives malformed fragmented packets. VFR drops such problem packets as they cannot be correctly processed and generates the error message as a warning.
Workaround: Disable the source of the malformed fragments or disable VFR feature. There is no other workaround.
•CSCtd72441
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series, when the command show platform software wccp <service-id> counters is executed, the obj_id field in the output in rare situations may be a large negative number. This is a cosmetic issue and does not affect functionality.
This symptom is observed when:
1. WCCPv2 is configured on the router and is redirecting traffic.
2. The object id value is greater that 2147483647.
3. The command show platform software wccp <service-id> counters is executed.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtd75033
Cisco IOS Software is affected by NTP mode 7 denial-of-service vulnerability.
Note Note: The fix for this vulnerability has a behavior change affect on Cisco IOS Operations for Mode 7 packets. See the section Further Description of this release note enclosure.
Cisco IOS Software with support for Network Time Protocol (NTP) contains a vulnerability processing specific NTP Control Mode 7 packets. This results in increased CPU on the device and increased traffic on the network segments.
ntp master <any following commands>
ntp peer <any following commands>
ntp server <any following commands>
ntp broadcast client
ntp multicast client
The following example identifies a Cisco device that is configured with NTP:
router#show running-config | include ntp
ntp peer 192.168.0.12
The following example identifies a Cisco device that is not configured with NTP:
router#show running-config | include ntp
router#
To determine the Cisco IOS Software release that is running on a Cisco product, administrators can log in to the device and issue the show version command to display the system banner. The system banner confirms that the
device is running Cisco IOS Software by displaying text similar to "Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software" or "Cisco IOS Software." The image name displays in parentheses, followed by "Version" and the Cisco IOS Software
release name. Other Cisco devices do not have the show version command or may provide different output.
The following example identifies a Cisco product that is running Cisco IOS Software Release 12.3(26) with an installed image name of C2500-IS-L:
Router#show version

Workaround: There are no workarounds other than disabling NTP on the device. The following mitigations have been identified for this vulnerability; only packets destined for any configured IP address on the device can exploit this vulnerability. Transit traffic will not exploit this vulnerability.
Note Note: NTP peer authentication is not a workaround and is still a vulnerable configuration.
* NTP Access Group
Warning: Because the feature in this vulnerability utilizes UDP as a transport, it is possible to spoof the sender's IP address, which may defeat access control lists (ACLs) that permit communication to these ports from trusted IP addresses. Unicast Reverse Path Forwarding (Unicast RPF) should be considered to be used in conjunction to offer a better mitigation solution.
!--- Configure trusted peers for allowed access
access-list 1 permit 171.70.173.55
!--- Apply ACE to the NTP configuration
ntp access-group peer 1
For additional information on NTP access control groups, consult the document titled "Performing Basic System Management" at the following link:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/netmgmt/configuration/guide/nm_basic_sys_manage.html#wp1034942
* Infrastructure Access Control Lists
Warning: Because the feature in this vulnerability utilizes UDP as a transport, it is possible to spoof the sender's IP address, which may defeat ACLs that permit communication to these ports from trusted IP addresses. Unicast RPF should be considered to be used in conjunction to offer a better mitigation solution.
Although it is often difficult to block traffic that transits a network, it is possible to identify traffic that should never be allowed to target infrastructure devices and block that traffic at the border of networks.
Infrastructure ACLs (iACLs) are a network security best practice and should be considered as a long-term addition to good network security as well as a workaround for this specific vulnerability. The iACL example below should be included as part of the deployed infrastructure access-list, which will help protect all devices with IP addresses in the infrastructure IP address range:
!---
!--- Feature: Network Time Protocol (NTP)
!---
access-list 150 permit udp TRUSTED_SOURCE_ADDRESSES WILDCARD
INFRASTRUCTURE_ADDRESSES WILDCARD eq 123
!--- Note: If the router is acting as a NTP broadcast client
!--- via the interface command "ntp broadcast client"
!--- then broadcast and directed broadcasts must be
!--- filtered as well. The following example covers
!--- an infrastructure address space of 192.168.0.X
access-list 150 permit udp TRUSTED_SOURCE_ADDRESSES WILDCARD
host 192.168.0.255 eq ntp
access-list 150 permit udp TRUSTED_SOURCE_ADDRESSES WILDCARD
host 255.255.255.255 eq ntp
!--- Note: If the router is acting as a NTP multicast client
!--- via the interface command "ntp multicast client"
!--- then multicast IP packets to the mutlicast group must
!--- be filtered as well. The following example covers
!--- a NTP multicast group of 239.0.0.1 (Default is
!--- 224.0.1.1)
access-list 150 permit udp TRUSTED_SOURCE_ADDRESSES WILDCARD
host 239.0.0.1 eq ntp
!--- Deny NTP traffic from all other sources destined
!--- to infrastructure addresses.
access-list 150 deny udp any
INFRASTRUCTURE_ADDRESSES WILDCARD eq 123
!--- Permit/deny all other Layer 3 and Layer 4 traffic in
!--- accordance with existing security policies and
!--- configurations. Permit all other traffic to transit the
!--- device.
access-list 150 permit ip any any
!--- Apply access-list to all interfaces (only one example
!--- shown)
interface fastEthernet 2/0
ip access-group 150 in
The white paper entitled "Protecting Your Core: Infrastructure Protection Access Control List" presents guidelines and recommended deployment techniquesfor infrastructure protection access lists and is available at the following link:

* Control Plane Policing
Provided under Control Plane Policing there are two examples. The first aims at preventing the injection of malicious traffic from untrusted sources, whilst the second looks at rate limiting NTP traffic to the box.
–Filtering untrusted sources to the device.
Warning: Because the feature in this vulnerability utilizes UDP as a transport, it is possible to spoof the sender's IP address, which may defeat ACLs that permit communication to these ports from trusted IP addresses.
Unicast RPF should be considered to be used in conjunction to offer a better mitigation solution.
Control Plane Policing (CoPP) can be used to block untrusted UDP traffic to the device. Cisco IOS software releases 12.0S, 12.2SX, 12.2S, 12.3T, 12.4, and 12.4T support the CoPP feature. CoPP can be configured on a device to help protect the management and control planes and minimize the risk and effectiveness of direct infrastructure attacks by explicitly permitting only authorized traffic that is sent to infrastructure devices in accordance with existing security policies and configurations. The CoPP example below should be included as part of the deployed CoPP, which will help protect all devices with IP addresses in the infrastructure IP address range.
!--- Feature: Network Time Protocol (NTP)
access-list 150 deny udp TRUSTED_SOURCE_ADDRESSES WILDCARD any eq 123
!--- Deny NTP traffic from all other sources destined
!--- to the device control plane.
access-list 150 permit udp any any eq 123
!--- Permit (Police or Drop)/Deny (Allow) all other Layer3 and
!--- Layer4 traffic in accordance with existing security policies
!--- and configurations for traffic that is authorized to be sent
!--- to infrastructure devices
!--- Create a Class-Map for traffic to be policed by
!--- the CoPP feature
class-map match-all drop-udp-class
match access-group 150
!--- Create a Policy-Map that will be applied to the
!--- Control-Plane of the device.
policy-map drop-udp-traffic
class drop-udp-class
drop
!--- Apply the Policy-Map to the
!--- Control-Plane of the device
control-plane
service-policy input drop-udp-traffic
In the above CoPP example, the access control list entries (ACEs) that match the potential exploit packets with the "permit" action result in these packets being discarded by the policy-map "drop" function, while packets that match the "deny" action (not shown) are not affected by the policy-map drop function.
–Rate Limiting the traffic to the device
The CoPP example below could be included as part of the deployed CoPP, which will help protect targeted devices from processing large amounts of NTP traffic.
Warning Warning: If the rate-limits are exceeded valid NTP traffic may also bedropped. |
!--- Feature: Network Time Protocol (NTP)
access-list 150 permit udp any any eq 123
!--- Create a Class-Map for traffic to be policed by
!--- the CoPP feature
class-map match-all rate-udp-class

Further Description: Cisco IOS Software releases that have the fix for this Cisco bug ID, have a
behavior change for mode 7 private mode packets.
Cisco IOS Software release with the fix for this Cisco bug ID, will not process NTP mode 7 packets, and will display a message "NTP: Receive: dropping message:
Received NTP private mode packet. 7" if debugs for NTP are enabled.
To have Cisco IOS Software process mode 7 packets, the CLI command <cmd>ntp allow mode private</cmd> should be configured. This is disabled by default.
This is the same as the vulnerability which is described in:
http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/568372
Cisco has release a public facing vulnerability alert at the following link:
http://tools.cisco.com/security/center/viewAlert.x?alertId=19540
Cisco IOS Software that has support for NTPv4 is NOT affected. NTPv4 was introduced into Cisco IOS Software: 12.4(15)XZ, 12.4(20)MR, 12.4(20)T, 12.4(20)YA, 12.4(22)GC1, 12.4(22)MD, 12.4(22)YB, 12.4(22)YD, 12.4(22)YE and 15.0(1)M.
All other versions of Cisco IOS and Cisco IOS XE Software are affected.
To see if a device is configured with NTP, log into the device and issue the CLI command show running-config | include ntp. If the output returnseither of the following commands listed then the device is vulnerable:
•CSCtd83822
Increasing memory usage of reflector.sh and droputil.sh process.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCte05713

•CSCte08145
CPP reset after sending malformed GRQ.
This symptom is observed where an ASR 1000 Router Series is performing ALG. The CPP will reset after some time period.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCte38945
Unable to get ping reply from the multicast group configured on loopback interface.
The symptom can occur when there are multiple routes populated in an interface and the interface goes down. All the routers associated with the interface should be removed, but only one is deleted. This results in the ping failure.
Workaround: Shut down the other interfaces associated with the router and enable it again.
•CSCte43708
QFP crash on ASR 1000 Router Series.
This symptom is observed when QFP is forwarding an IP fragment while doing IP virtual-reassembly, which is enabled by NAT.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCte50144
Router reports incorrect CPU utilisation. It reports a low CPU utilisation and also reports an overall utilisation lower then the utilisation under interrupts.
For example:
CPU utilization for five seconds: 5%/25%; one minute: 8%; five minutes: 8%
This symptom is observed on an ASR1002 router under high CPU utilisation of the RP CPU, caused by excessive rate of punted traffic.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCte50721
During stateful NAT sync of H323 information from primary to standby, standby crashes.
This symptom is observed on an ASR 1000 Router Series with dual RP and ESP.
Workaround: Disable H323 with the following commands if H323 ALG is not required:
no ip nat service h225
no ip nat service ras
•CSCte51959
QFP validates the ICMP checksum of all ICMP packets received to a local address even when we ping with 'validate reply data=no'.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCte56627
1. Sessions may not be synchronized properly to standby.
OR
2. Session deletes may not be synchronized properly to standby (session that should be deleted on standby, will not be deleted).
Symptom 1 is observed on ASRNAT when there is an inside mapping and outside static mapping configuration.
Symptom 2 is observed when a very high burst of session aging occurs.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCte57362
FP reset on sending h323 V5 calls via ASR 1000 Router where ASR 1000 is configured with the NAT.
V5 h323 calls should go through ASR-NAT.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCte60069
During the scale testing with ModelF applied on PTA, reparenting operation results in FP crash. Also CPUHOG and TIMEHOG tracebacks observed.
This symptom is observed after the following steps:
1. PTA: Bring up 24K IPv4 sessions, 2PQ+2CQ(modelf)
2. Remove grandparent shaper
3. Add the shaper back.
Workaround: Avoiding reparenting with large number of vlans/sessions."
•CSCte64646
A ucode interrupt occurs which causes a driver lockdown.
This symptom is observed with QoS applied and traffic flowing, when random-detect AND fair-queue are configured in any class, and random-detect is removed from the class (on-the-fly).
Workaround: If the problem occurs, the FP/ESP must be rebooted. To avoid the problem, stop all traffic or remove the QoS policy from the interface first, then modify that class, then re-apply QoS or restart the traffic.
•CSCte69621
Missing CLI for configuring deny policy options. "crypto ipsec ipv4-deny {clear|deny|jump}"
Workaround: There is no workaround."
•CSCte72128
After a reload, "cdp enable" is missing on previously configured interfaces.
This symptom is observed on ASR 1000 Router Series running 12.2(33)XNE1, with "cdp enable" configured on some interfaces prior to a reload. After the reload the running-config shows "cdp enable" missing on the previously configured interfaces.
Workaround: After a reload, manually reconfigure cdp enable."
•CSCte72288
After changing source VLAN on the source ERSPAN session to a non-existant VLAN or native VLAN (1), traffic is still being received on the SPAN port.
This symptom is observed on ASR 1000 Router Series with VLANS on a 1Gig port as well as FE port.
Workaround: There is no workaround."
•CSCte77136
CLNS routing over GRE tunnels is not working on the ASR 1000 Router.
This symptom is observed on ASR 1000 Router Series where CLNS routing over GRE tunnels is configured with a GRE tunnel as the egress interface (output from the ASR1000). In this scenario, CLNS packets are not forwarded via fast switching.
Workaround: Use the following configuration change (needed on a per interface basis):
"no clns route-cache" to disable CLNS fast switching.
•CSCte77167
Memory leak is observed in QFP, ESP. ESP is also observed to reload after 30hrs of flapping IPv6 sessions
This symptom is observed on ASR 1000 Router Series with IPv6 session flaps on LNS.

This symptom occurs rarely but it is more likely to occur with long-lived TCP connections.
Workaround: A possible workaround is to lower the ip nat trans tcp-timeout <n>'value.
•CSCte84990
In a deployment with IPsec SVTI to MPLS, down stream traffic from MPLS core is not label switching. However this might be just a broken counter because there is no traffic drop.
This symptom is observed on ASR 1000 Router Series when the "sh mpls forwarding" command is run. The Bytes Label Switched counter displays 0.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCte91369
The following show commands will give a command line error:
sh ip cache [prefix mask] verbose flow
sh ip cache [prefix mask] verbose flow aggregation [aggregation name]
This symptom is observed after the following steps:
1. Enable netflow on ASR1000 Router using the command ip flow ingress|egress on any interface.
2. Send traffic through this interface.
3. Execute the command show ip cache flow. The flow entries should be displayed.
4. Try to execute the show command to filter the flows using prefix:
sh ip cache [prefix mask] verbose flow or
sh ip cache [prefix mask] verbose flow aggregation [agg name]
These commands will give a parsing error.
Workaround: Run the same commands without verbose option.
The command show ip cache flow, which will display all entries, will work.
•CSCte93229
An ESP crash is observed.
This symptom is observed on an ASR 1000 Router Series with a fragmented datagram whose size exceeds 9k and DF is set.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCte94156
ASR 1000 running Release 2.5.1 fails to update the PST value in TBAR, causing other GM to fail sending traffic via the ASR with anti-replay error messages. This happens wherever the local ACL is changed on the GM or by KS failure and recovery.
This symptom is observed on ASR 1000 Router Series running Release 2.5.1 with GETVPN set up.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCte97814
On an ASR 1000 Router with BGP enabled, a small fixed size chunk memory leak is observed during boot-up. To be exact, it is observed just after config bulk-sync in redundant RP setup.
This symptom is observed on Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers with a redundant RP setup and BGP enabled.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf01618
A Cisco ASR 1000 router may unexpectedly reload due to SegV error.
This symptom is observed on Cisco ASR 1000 routers running 12.2(33)XND1 or later XND or later 12.2(33)XN and running DMVPN with tunnel protection.
Workaround: Move to unaffected release or remove tunnel protection.
•CSCtf06845

This symptom is observed on ASR 1000 Router Series when a packet is receiving on a "encapsulation dot1Q" interface.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf12319
ASRNAT with intrabox redundancy and PAT configuration in rare cases may retain session on the active much longer than what is configured (up to 4.5 hours).
This symptom is observed when ASRNAT is running with intrabox redundancy and PAT configuration.
Workaround: Set NAT timeouts to 15 seconds or less. Disable the second ESP.
•CSCtf12623
A low memory condition can be seen on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router when NAT MIBs are queried.
This symptom is observed on ASR 1000 Router Series when NAT MIBs are queried.
Workaround: The workaround would be to exclude NAT MIB as following:
R5-mcp-4ru-2(config)#snmp-server view test 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.77.1 excluded
R5-mcp-4ru-2(config)#snmp-server view test internet included

•CSCtf15848
The following error is seen on re-configuring channel-groups after switchover:
EFC ERROR: spa_efc_config_ds1_channel - channel in use
This symptom is observed with the following steps:
1. The active RP is booted with 8xcht1/e1 and channel-group is configured on t1 controller
2. Load the standby RP, and do a switchover
3. On new active RP, unconfigure and reconfigure the channel-group
Tracebacks with EFC ERROR: spa_efc_config_ds1_channel -channel in use are seen.
Workaround: Before switchover, configure channel-groups on active RP when standby RP is up.
•CSCtf16359
ASR 1000 Series Router configured as GETVPN GM will not make any local GM ACL change of removing extended ACL effective, until a new rekey from Key server.
This symptom is observed on ASR 1000 Router Series configured as GETVPN GM.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf19748
FP crash seen on the BR with IOS XE 2.6 image. The crash happens when the MC is loaded with scaled configuration and http/ftp traffic is running.
This symptom is observed under the following conditions:
1. Load basic config on the MC ( single prefix list, single active probe and single traffic application class).
2. Send traffic matching the application traffic class.
3. Load scaled configuration( ex 500 traffic classes )
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf22256
FP reloads on ASR 1000 Router Series.
This symptom is observed on ASR 1000 Router Series when using show platform hardware qfp active feature wccp service id <service id> after service is not configured.
Workaround: Do not used show command show platform hardware qfp active feature wccp service id <service id> before valid WCCP configuration.
•CSCtf27981
ASRNAT static network does not work properly or traceback may be received on configuration on unconfiguration.
This symptom is only observed if 2 static networks are configured exactly the same except for network mask.
For example:
ip nat inside source static network 10.1.0.0 10.2.0.0 /24 vrf vrfA
ip nat inside source static network 10.1.0.0 10.2.0.0 /16 vrf vrfA
Workaround: Do not configure 2 static networks exactly the same except for network mask. If you do, it is recommended that you do the following:
1. Remove both static network configuration
2. Add back the 1 static network which is truly desirable.
3. That should work, but if it does not reload the box.
•CSCtf30416
When calling endpoint does not support T.38, the fallback is not working.
Workaround: There is no workaround
•CSCtf32693
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series, configuring xconnect on a VLAN, SNMP 64 bit counters are not getting updated.
This symptom is observed on a VLAN with xconnect configuration on same port.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf33956
Fragmented UDP or TCP DNS response processed by NAT ALG will be dropped.
This symptom is observed when a DNS response is going through an ASR 1000 Series static NAT router running release 12.2(33)XND2.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf40199
A DNS response going through NAT ALG will not have the payload TTL changed 0 for same pre/post static config.
This symptom is observed when a DNS response is going through an ASR 1000 Router Series static NAT router running release 12.2(33)XND2.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf40592
Higher latency for priority packets is observed.
For ethernet, when configuring model F broadband configuration using ANCP to change the shape rates on individual VLANs, higher latency for priority packets may be encountered. The same issue may be encountered if you remove the shaper policy-map from the VLAN and then re-apply it.
For ATM, when using multiple ATM VCs per physical interface, sustained oversubscription of that same physical interface may result in higher latency for some priority packets.
Workaround: Ethernet: Do not change the shape rate on a VLAN.
ATM: Avoid oversubscribing the interface for a sustained period of time."
•CSCtf40702
A Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series with Route Processor 2 engine may unexpectedly reload due to a SegV crash.
This symptom is observed if there is a monitor session configured that uses a source interface with a range. This can either be a crash while configuring via CLI or a crash at bootup if the command is in the startup config.
Workaround: Do not use the source inter range.
•CSCtf43345
Active and Standby FP resets on Cisco ASR 1000 Router.
This symptom is observed during longevity run with LDAP, DNS traffic and continuous SNMP MIB Walk.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf48067
Memory leakages occur after configuring and de-configuring various netflow configurations. This includes any interface type on which netflow is configured: physical, VLANs, VT sessions, and so on.
This symptom is observed after the following steps:
1. Configure/De-configure netflow on physical interface.
2. Configure/De-configure various caches.3.Configure/De-configure sub-interface(s) which has netflow enabled on it.
3. Exporter configuration change on main and aggregation cache.
4. Configure/De-configure virtual-interface(s) created using virtual template which has netflow enabled on it.
5. Configure/De-configure various samplers.
Above condition independently also leads to memory leakage.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf51450
During regular operations, the following log message was observed:
IOSXE-6-PLATFORM: F0: cpp_cp: QFP:00 Thread:032 TS:00005645124008456668 %LOGGER-6-DROPPED: 1 messages
The intensity of this message was very high causing buffer and syslogs to be filled up with unwanted messages.
This symptom is observed on ASR 1000 Router Series, running with 12.2(33)XND Release.
Workaround: Consider filtering messages. Make use of ESM to drop these messages selectively from any of the targets (buffer, Vty/Console OR the syslog server).
•CSCtf61700
Memory leak seen with the Radius process.
This symptom is observed when a Radius Server (ACS) sends Access-Reject for a service profile download.
Workaround: Make sure the service profile to be downloaded is configured in the ACS (Radius server).
•CSCtf65536
ESP can crash while performing SIP calls using Cube-SP function.
This symptom is observed when hairpinned SIP calls are present, but it is timing related, so it doesn't occur in all cases.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf70851
Input/Output Rate freezes and doesn't get updated.
This symptom is observed if the interface is shut with the traffic running, the input/output rate gets stuck and doesn't go back to 0.
Workaround: Giving no shut on the interface restarts the input/output rate.
•CSCtf85841
The memory usage shown in the following commands keeps increasing as we repeatedly activate FRR and de-activate it by shutting and un-shutting relevant interfaces:
sh platform software memory forwarding-manager f0 brief | inc CPP CEF MPLS MPLS
sh platform software memory forwarding-manager f0 brief | inc frr
This symptom is only observed if FMAN-RP receives the FRR delete request before receiving the delete request of all its child objects (out-of-order events).
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf86998
In a GETVPN ASR 1000 Router Series deployment, packets on one of the ASR GM router interfaces are not encrypted.
This symptom is observed when GM1 is in passive mode.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf98758
Standby RP crashes after replacing the basic configuration of the router with an au3-e3 configuration.
This symptom is observed after intiating the following steps:
1. Configure the router with back-to-back SDH link for full AU3-E3 configurations with SPA-1XCHOC12/DS0.
2. Save the running configuration using copy run bootflash:au3-e3.conf
3. Reload the router with config register set to 0x2142. This will get the router running configuration to the basic default configuration.
4. After the router is up with redundancy setup and basic default configuration, execute the config replace command with the target config that was saved in step 1. {Config replace bootflash:au3-e3.con}
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtf98802
Config replace command when executed in a particular way causes the router to malfunction.
This symptom is observed after the following steps:
1. When we try to remove channelized configuration using config replace command, it will ask for the confirmation of the same as below:
Unprovision clear channel interface ?[confirm]
2. If we put any character other than 'y' or 'n' it will not remove the channel configuration for that particular path.
3. Now, if I try to remove these channels that were not cleared before manually, the system is behaves improperly:
Router(config-controller)#au-3 1
%ERROR: Standby doesn't support this command ^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
Router(config-controller)#
As you see above system is not allowing to enter into the controller configuration mode and resulting into "%ERROR: Standby doesn't support this command" message.
Workaround: By this point of time only after reload of the router, the situation comes under control and then only we can alter the controller configurations.
•CSCtg00292
Some translations getting stuck in standby router and with a show ip nat trans verbose we can see they have use_count as zero. This symptom is observed in a B2B NAT scenario and can happen while scaling.
Workaround: Resetting the FP is the only workaround.
•SCtg06681
SIP method profile allows defining a mapping of status-codes. RP2 CUBE(SP Edition) would crash while removing status-code map.
This symptom is observed in the following configuration:
For RP2 CUBE(SP Edition), consider the following config:
config t
sbc test
sbe
sip method-profile SIPmessage
method INVITE
action as-profile
map-status-code
range 183 value 180 <==== incorrect mapping
end
Note That there is only one entry for mapping status-code.
When we try to unconfigure "range 183 value 180" as follows
the RP2 CUBE(SP Edition) would crash:
config t
sbc test
sbe
sip method-profile SIPmessage
method INVITE
map-status-code
no range 183 value 180 <=== causes crash
end
Workaround: The workaround is to unconfigure "map-status-code" and then re-configure it with correct mapping of status-code as follows:
config t
sbc test
sbe
sip method-profile SIPmessage
method INVITE
no map-status-code <==== unconfigure map-status-code
map-status-code <==== re-configure
range 180 value 183 <==== correct mapping
end
•CSCtg08753
When using ASRNAT HA, if sessions on active are under SYN, RST or FIN timeout value and a switchover occurs, timeout value for those sessions goes back to TCP timeout on the new active instead of properly honoring SYN, RST, FIN timer.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtg23281
At times with IP header compression enabled, the RTP timestamp is not restored to its correct value after compressing/decompressing the IP/UDP/RTP headers. This can cause jitter or one way audio. The issue occurs when an ASR 1000 Series Router is the compressor and a Cisco 2800 ISR is the decompressor.
This symptom is observed when IP Header Compression is enabled in either Cisco original or IPHC format between an ASR 1000 Router Series and a Cisco 2800 ISR.
Workaround: Use IETF IP Header Compression instead of Cisco original or IPHC format.
ip rtp header-compression ietf-format periodic-refresh
•CSCtg30921
ASRNAT pool shows allocated count of 1 when there are no addresses allocated. This means the pool can not be removed even though there are no translations off the pool.
There is a very small timing window where this symptom occurs only for pool overload configuration. This window can happen when clear ip nat trans * is issued as translations are aging out. It is more likely to be seen if there are a very large number of overloaded pools.
Workaround: The box or ESP must be reset to recover from this situation. "
•CSCtg45583
MLP QFP client leaks memory.
This symptom is observed if a QOS service-policy with many (7+) class-maps is configured on a Multilink interface.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtg52972
Configuring ip flow-export template options sampler on an ASR 1000 Router may stop Netflow from working and this may cause errors. It is not supported, so the command should be rejected at the CLI.
This symptom is observed when configuring the unsupported feature ip flow-export template options sampler on an ASR 1000 Router.
Workaround: Reload.
•CSCtg81294
When trying to remove ASRNAT dynamic pool, the following message is observed even when there are no translations:
%Pool <pool-name> in use, cannot destroy
This symptom occurs in rare conditions of aging when the command clear ip nat trans * is run.
Workaround: Unfortunately the only work around is to reload the box. This problem has been fixed and is only expected to be seen in B2B EFT image which just missed the fix.
Open Caveats—Cisco IOS XE Release 2.4.3
This section documents possible unexpected behavior by Cisco IOS XE Release 2.4.3.
•CSCsz01980
The RP1 may experience unexpected watchdog timeout and reload.

1. Sessions may not be sync properly to standby OR
2. session deletes may not be sync properly to standby (session that would be deleted on standby, will not be deleted).
The following conditons may occur:
1. On ASRNAT when there is an inside mapping and outside static mapping configuration.
2. When there is a very high burst of session aging occurs.
Workaround: None
•CSCte60069
During the scale testing with ModelF applied on PTA, reparenting operation results in FP crash. Also CPUHOG and TIMEHOG tracebacks observed. The following conditions have been seen:
1. On PTA, bring up 24K IPv4 sessions, 2PQ+2CQ (modelf)
2. remove grandparent shaper and3)add the shaper back. When this instance occurs, FP crashes a tracebacks are observed.
Workaround: Without the fix for this ddts, avoiding reparenting with large number of vlans with sessions will resolve the issue.
•CSCte77136
CLNS routing over GRE tunnels is not working on the ASR 1000 Router Series. When CLNS routing over GRE tunnels is configured, specifically with a GRE tunnel as the egress interface (output from the ASR 1000 Router). The CLNS packets are not forwarded via fast switching.
Workaround: Use the following configuration change on a per interface basis: no clns route-cache disables the clns fast switching.
•CSCte89787
A Cisco ASR 1000 Router crashes after the Segment Switch manager reports that an invalid segment has been detected. The following logs appear on the console:
%SW_MGR-3-INVALID_SEGMENT: Segment Switch Manager Error - Invalid segment - no segment class.
The router will crash followed by this message.
This has been observed on an ASR1002 running 12.2(33)XND1.
Workaround: None known so far.

•CSCse97209
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series standard communities are not set correctly by an outbound route-map.
This occurs when route-map uses continue option is used.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCsk85192
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Router copy command arguments followed by a ":" are not sent to ACS when command authorization is enabled. This includes scp:, ftp:, tftp:, flash:, etc. On enabling parser ambiguity debugs its seen that the arguments with colon are not matched with the existing keywords though its a valid directory.
Workaround: Is to deny or permit the full copy command for users.
Further Problem Description: This issue affects AAA Authorization. When the argument is specifically denied by ACS that arguement will be able to be run on the IOS device. If the arguement is specifically allowed by ACS with default arguements being denied the commany followed by a ":" will not be able to be run.
•CSCso18626
Destinations via MLPPP sessions may become unreachable following a RP switchover. When MLPPP sessions are active, BGP nexthops are reachable via the MLPPP session prior to a switchover. An RP switchover then occurs.
Workaround: The affected multilink interfaces can be shut/no shut i.e.
shut/no shut interface multilink
Repopulating the routes in the affected VRF(s)will also restore reachability.

•CSCso60442
A crash occurs on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series.
This symptom is observed when the show buffers interface dumpcommand is entered.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCsv36976
After the display of the 1000 characters on the console, if there are more to display, the display is truncated. The problem happens when you have large number of interfaces and the output of "show zone security" is larger than 1000 characters.
Workaround: The workaround is to show all interfaces and get the zone membership from the interface.
Further Problem Description: The root cause of the problem is that the display buffer for this command is limited with 1000 characters."
•CSCsv36976
A Cisco ASR 1000 Router running IPSec (IP Security) can run at high cpu up to 100% indefinitely in the "Crypto IKMP" process.
This problem can occur when there is error conditions internal to the IKE process.
Workaround: The workaround is to issue the command clear crypto isakmp to clear theIKE SA's.
•CSCsx10028
A core dump may fail to write or write very slowly (less than 10KB per second) on the Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series.
The symptom is observed when the cause of the crash is processor memory corruption. When this occurs, the corrupted memory pool cannot be used to write the core dump so it will likely fail. (IO memory corruption crashes should not have this problem.)
Workaround: There is no workaround.
Further Problem Description: This bug also increases the default size for the exception memory region to 256K to make sure it has enough memory to handle writing core dumps. This means that it is no longer necessary to adjust it as per the core dump instructions on CCO.
•CSCsx15841
The BGP aggregate-address command configured on active RP does not auto-sync to the running configuration of the standby RP.
This occurs when BGP is configured on active and standby redundant RP system(s).
Workaround: Configure BGP aggregate-address and reboot the system, forcing both active and standby to load from startup configuration.
•CSCsx30395
When all interfaces are shut, wait 5 secs, and then no shut, then LDP session is not reestablished for one link peer. This seen only on ASR 1006 with VPNs on GigE dot1q interfaces, some with AToMPLS.
Workaround: Clear sessions with clear mpls ldp nei *.
•CSCsx83443
ISKMP debug messages from all peers are shown in the terminal monitor enable tty/vty's even though debug crypto condition peer ipv4 x.x.x.x is set.
This condition can occur when using peer IP-based debug condition.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
Further Problem Description: Only a subset of the messages are shown.
•CSCsy10893
A Cisco ASR 1000 Router reloads occasionally after the command show buffers leak is repeatedly issued.
The symptom is observed when issuing the show buffers leak command. This occurs only with certain patterns and scale of traffic and does not occur all the time.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCsy45371
The clear ip nat tr * command removes corresponding static NAT entries from the running configuration, but removing static NAT running configuration does not remove the corresponding NAT cache.
This may occur, when NAT commands are entered while router is processing around 1 Mb/s NAT traffic.
Workaround: Is to stop the network traffic while configuring NAT.
•CSCsy49927
The IOSd restart is seen with crest proc frame that fetches the tcl shell for execution.
This is seen with crest proc that helps in configuring a scale configuration.
Workaround: None
•CSCsz15295
The GM failed to register when fail-close feature is enabled with missing ACL.
This instance has occurred when configuring fail-close that gives a matching ACL and activates. In addition, do not configure ACL in global configuration.
Workaround: Is to deactivate fail-close.
Further Problem Description: GM failed to register when fail-close feature is configured with a non-existing ACL.
•CSCsz56462
When configuring cdp run it does not bring up cdp on the interfaces. This Conditions happens only if the default behaviour of a platform is to have CDP disabled.
Workaround: To enable CDP, include the cdp enable command in the configuration.
•CSCsz72591
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Router crashes with an Address Error (load or instruction fetch) exception. The router must be configured to act as a DHCP client.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCsz74859
NHRP cache entry is not getting created for certain spoke nodes on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series.
This symptom occurs when two spokes A and B advertise the same subnet with varying masks (anything other than /8 or /16 or /24). A third spoke upon receiving such routes (from the hub), in order to send traffic to such subnets, can form a dynamic tunnel with either A or B but not both at the same time.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
Further problem description: There is no hindrance to traffic since it continues to flow via the hub. When tunnel with spoke A is formed, there is no problem with traffic to subnet behind spoke A. But, traffic to subnet behind spoke B takes the spoke A - hub - spokeB path. This can be easily noted by traceroute.
•CSCta26029
Path attribute memory leak is found when there is some path attribute churn in the network.
The symptom is seen only when there are idle peers on the router.
Workaround: Unconfigure the idle peers.
•CSCta38072
Cisco IOS XE may fail while attempting to do a "redundancy force-switchover." This is an intermittent issue.
During a "redundancy force switchover," the switchover occurs, but when standby bay 0 is restarting, Cisco IOS XE fails. Cisco IOS XE in standby bay 0 then restarts and the system reaches SSO.
Workaround: There are no known workarounds.
•CSCta48816
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Router running ODR as a routing protocol for a DMVPN deployment, might display similar message:
Jun 9 03:40:44.141: %SYS-2-GETBUF: Bad getbuffer, bytes= 32717 -Process= "CDP Protocol", ipl= 2, pid= 157
These messages have been seen on Cisco ASR 1000 Router running software 12.2(33)XNC1.
Workaround: Use a routing protocol which does not rely on CDP in the DMVPN cloud (passive RIP, RIP, BGP or EIGRP).
•CSCta93640
Next-hop tracking notification is sent even though track is undefined. This has been observed, when PBR is configured with the set next-hop tracking.
Workaround: None
•CSCtb13421
The GM may not register on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series. This symptom has been observed, when a crypto map with local-address is configured and applied on multiple interfaces, after one of these interfaces are then shut.
Workaround: Is to disable local-address for the crypto map.
•CSCtb32502
With a 1K DMVPN spoke, unconfigure/ re-configure tunnel protection several times and unconfigure/re-configure a tunnel interface, the RP resets.
Workaround: Wait until all DMVPN session is up or down before next unconfig/re-config tunnel. That is, do not unconfig/re-configure tunnel when there are many sessions in transaction state.
•CSCtb67461
When pado delay per circuit id is configured for different strings in the PTA device, the circuit id needs to be matched with each entry in the list until a match is found. But this does not happen. Only the first string is tried to be matched and if a match not found, no pado delay is applied. This is the same case for remote id.
Workaround: None
•CSCtb74547
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series DMVPN HUB reloads when processing IPSEC key engine.
This conditions happens when dual DMVPN with shared tunnel protection feature is enabled.
Workaround: None
•CSCtb89424
In rare instances, a Cisco ASR 1000 Router may crash while using IP SLA UDP Probes configured using SNMP and display an error message similar to the following:
hh:mm:ss Date: Address Error (load or instruction fetch) exception, CPU
signal 10, PC = 0x424ECCE4
This symptom is observed while using IP SLA on the router.
Workaround: There is no workaround.
•CSCtb89767
A problem may occur on an FP20 when configuring the IPSEC part of the SVTI topology the delete and reconfig of IPsec does not happen. This has been seen in a FP20 SVTI IPSEC setup with 1 tunnel configured.
Workaround: Is to reload the router.
•CSCtc21042
A chassis-manager processed on RP2 gets stuck and the router becomes unresponsive to user commands. All the FPs and CCs keep rebooting, with console logs showing repeated FP code downloads.
This problem is specific to RP2. No particular scenario is known. Problem is caused by OBFL logging of messages on RP2.
Workaround: Is to disable onboard logging of messages on RPs as follows:
"hw-module slot r0/r1 logging onbaord disable"
Router#hw-module slot r0 logging onboard disable
To verify that onboard logging has been disabled:
Router#sh logging onboard slot r0 status
Status: Disabled
Note This command is not saved in the config so is not preserved across router reloads.
•CSCtc25464
After the ASR 1000 Router Series has been reloaded, and the tunnel interface has been configured with keepalives it will remain in the line-protocol down state. This will occur only when keepalives are configured for a short interval (total timeout under 10 seconds) and when the box has been reloaded.
Workaround: Is to remove the keepalive configuration on the tunnel and to reload the configuration again; after the router has rebooted when the tunnel interface is still down.
•CSCtc30420
CPP tracebacks are logged after configuring the ASR 1000 Router Series as an RP2 with IPSec DMVPN Spoke. Only in this condition, when unconfiguring DMVPN on the router and reconfiguring it again, CPP tracebacks are logged.
Workaround: Is to reload the router.
•CSCtc38484
The giga word counters are not reflecting properly in the stop record.
When the interim accounting is enabled, the giga-word counters are reflecting fine in interim and stop record. This occurs on the ASR 1000 Router.
Workaround: There is no issues when the interim record is enabled. When the interim accounting is disabled on the ASR 1000 Router, execute the show interface virtual command. This will allow for the giga word counter in the stop record to be confiigured.
•CSCtc40677
The distribute-list applied to the virtual-template interface is not effective for the virtual-access interfaces spawned by that template.
For example, configured on the ASR (hub) is:
router eigrp 1
redistribute static metric 10000 100 255 1 1500
network 10.0.0.0
no auto-summary
distribute-list prefix TEST out Virtual-Template1!
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Null0
ip route 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 Null0!
ip prefix-list TEST seq 10 permit 0.0.0.0/0
ip prefix-list TEST seq 20 permit 10.0.0.0/8
For example: On the branch site when connected to a Virtual-accessinterface will show as:
ranch#sh ip route eigrp
Load for five secs: 0%/0%; one minute: 0%; five minutes: 0%
Time source is NTP, *15:56:44.397 BRU Wed Oct 7 2009
10.0.0.0/8 is variably subnetted, 5 subnets, 3 masks
D 10.0.0.0/8 [90/46251776] via 10.12.0.2, 00:00:06, Dialer1
D 10.1.1.0/24 [90/46228736] via 10.12.0.2, 00:00:06,Dialer1
D 10.2.2.0/24 [90/46354176] via 10.12.0.2, 00:00:06, Dialer1
D*EX 0.0.0.0/0 [170/46251776] via 10.12.0.2, 00:00:06, Dialer1
This shows that no filtering was applied, since the 10.1.1.0/24 and 10.2.2.0/24 should have been dropped off the updates.
The symptom is observed on a Cisco ASR 1000 series router that is running Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)XND1.
Workaround: Configure the distribute-list for the specific virtual-access interface used for the connections on the hub.
•CSCtc43110
Under H.323 call scenarios, outgoing H.323 signaling packets (TCP) are marked with a non-zero DSCP value, even though no QoS is configured for H.323 calls. This happens under all H.323->H.323 and SIP->H.323 scenarios when SBC creates a downstream H.323 calls.
Workaround: There is no workaround with SBC configuration. QoS can be re-marked when MQC policy is placed on the outbound physical interfaces of the ASR 1000 Series Router.
Workaround: None
•CSCtc45681
QoS Accounting stats is incorrect after changing the policer rate.
The following conditions have been observed:
1. ASR1004 is configured as PTA.
2. QoS Accounting is enabled at the output policy-map voip class.
3. Pass traffic for 10 seconds.
4. Stop traffic and verify the interim-update record has the correct QoS accounting stats.
5. Re-start traffic.
6. Under traffic load, modify the voip class police rate.
7. Verify the voip traffic is now policed to the new rate.
8. Stop traffic.
9. Run show cmd: show policy-map session output.
Note Note the voip class conformed pkt/byte counts.
10. Check the accounting interim record. Notice that the pkt/byte counts do not match those form the show cmd output in step 9.
Workaround: Remove and reapply the QoS policy-map.
•CSCtc51048
On the Cisco ASR 1000 Router the FP will reset, when configuring "show platform hardware cpp feature ipsec spd all" on the cli, after deleting tunnels FP crash on "sh pla hard cpp feature ipsec spd all" while deleting tunnels. This condition will occur when tunnel has been deleted and applyed to the CLI "show platform hardware cpp feature ipsec spd all" both even should happen together.
Workaround: Do not apply CLI "show platform hardware cpp feature ipsec spd all" while you are deleting number of tunnels.
•CSCtc53381

This problem is seen after deleting and recreating a IPSecv6 Tunnel.
Workaround: None
•CSCtc65800
FP reloads when crypto map is removed from interface in CAC-ACL configuration on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router.
This occurs only when CAC ACL configuration is used. Plain ACL with match address will not have any FP reload issue.
Workaround: None
•CSCtc65800
A virtual reassembly error message of the FRAG-REASSEMBLY_DBG type is seen and the traceback decode of the error message points to the ipv4 vfr refrag function indicating packet drop. The issue may cause another ATTN_NOTIFY timeout error message in about 4 minutes.
The condition was observed under uRPF drop on broadband LNS virtual interface. In general other virtual reassembly drops at ipv4 vfr refrag due to malform fragments may trigger the issue.
Workaround: Un-configure vitrual reassembly or avoid the specific packet drop condition.
•CSCtc68037
A Cisco IOS XE device may experience an unexpected reload as a result of mtrace packet processing.
Workaround: None other than avoiding the use of mtrace functionality.
•CSCtc86951
On the ASR 1000 Router Series, when high speed logging is enabled for NAT, ESP may fail after a RP SSO switchover. In rare conditions when high speed logging is enabled for NAT, ESP may fail after a RP SSO switchover.
Workaround: None
•CSCtc87822
On a PE router, eBGP-learned VRF routes might not be advertised to eBGP neighbors in the same VRF.
The symptom is observed if DUT first learns the route from IBGP-VPNv4 (same RD) and then learns the route from the CE.
Workaround: Soft clear towards the CEs missing the routes.
•CSCtc95423
Router crashes when quickly unconfiguring and reconfiguring crypto maps on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router.
This may only occur, when crypto is turned on while SAs are still being deleted in the background and duplicate SAs may be created, which may cause the router to crash.
Workaround: Before re-applying crypto maps, wait until all SAs on the router are deleted before turning crypto back on.
•CSCtc96161
DMVPN is working fine for a ~week and then one of spokes appears to be no longer able to pass traffic to other spokes. IPSEC tunnel between the spokes can be established at IOS level, but cannot be programmed into hardware and traffic is not getting through.
This problem is only seen when there are more spoke to spoke dynamic tunnels and the dynamic tunnels are flapping frequently for a long period of time.
Workaround: Reduce the frequency of dynamic tunnel flapping by increasing NHRP hold down timer to avoid tearing down dynamic tunnels too often. This can reduce the chance of hitting the problem. But when the problem happens, the affected spoke has to be reloaded.
•CSCtd00493
For IPv6 Bi-directional entry FF03::1:0:0/96, some packet with address like FF03::1:1:1/128 or FF03::1:1:2/128, etc... In addition a Cisco ASR 1000 Router cannot find a match in CPP due to the collision lookup failure. This problem may cause the traffic to not forward the entries on the router.
Workaround: None
•CSCtd00644
The ASR 1000 Router Series may restart ungraceful with scaled config. When there is scaled config and sessions are flapping frequently, only on rare instances the ASR 1000 Router Series may restart ungracefully. This problem may also timing related, so it may not happen with every time sessions flaps.
Workaround: None
•CSCtd02123
WRED state only shows WRED state with standard class.
In sh policy-map int, WRED state only show standard class's WRED state.
Workaround: Is to only use standard wred classes.
•CSCtd02554
The following error message may show up when AAA is used by the PPPoE:
%AAA-6-BADHDL: invalid hdl AAA ID 0, hdl CE010AA1, retired -Process= "SG CMD HANDLER", ipl= 0, pid= 151
This could happen during the scalability test with large number of PPPoE sessions.
Workaround: None
•CSCtd15634
Traceback seen on a Cisco ASR 1000 Router console indicating an error.
This condition occurs when bringing up an L2-Connected ISG session and then immediately sending a non-stop Service Activation and Deactivation CoA.
Workaround: Do not send a non-stop Service Activation and Deactivation CoA immediately after bringing up an L2-Connected ISG session.
•CSCtd17681
Multicast hello packets are not encrypted by IPSec resulting in failure to setup OSPF with EIGRP sessions.
This Issue has been seen in a DMVPN setup, or when a point to point Frame-Relay IPSec session is configured.
Workaround: None
•CSCtd35091
The input queue on ISG's access interface gets filled up causing the interface to wedge.
The symptom is observed when an L2-connected IP session for a client exists on the ISG and traffic from that client comes in with a different IP address to the one used to identify the session. This traffic is dropped and interface wedging is observed.
Workaround: There is no workaround other than a router reload.
•CSCtd38225
When ISG is enabled and DHCP sessions re-start just around the time their leases expire, some sessions may get stuck dangling indefinitely. Sending DHCP DISCOVER message (i.e.: re-starting the CPE) will not restore the session. The affected subscriber(s) will not be able to establish a session.
The issue seems to be a corner-case situation. It is observed when ISG is enabled and DHCP sessions re-start just around the time their leases expire.
Workaround: The only known workaround is to manually clear the dangling session(s) using the clear ip subscriber dangling <time> command although this may not be a suitable workaround in a live production network.
•CSCtd39778
The Cisco ASR 1000 Router may reset due to IOS failure, when ZBFW is configured with more than 16 match protocols and there are large an additional no match protocl statements in ZBFW class-maps.
This has been seen, when an addition of more than 16 match protocol statements in a class-map is used for inspect policymap on the ASR 1000 Router.
Workaround: Is to split the class-map with more than 16 match protocol into multiple class-maps, each with 16 or less match statements.
•CSCtd47550
On an ASR 1000 Router configured with redundant RP's and a scaled ISG configuration, the ESP fowarding processor may reload during an RP switchover.
Defect requires redundant RPs and a scaled ISG configuration with many active ISG sessions. An RP switchover also seems to be a necessary condition.
Workaround: No known workaround.
•CSCtd47813
Traffic loss may be seen after rekey between the Cisco ASR 1000 Router Series acting as GMs when modifying KS ACL. This may only occur, when a more specific permit statement has been added. In addition, when permit ip any any has been applied this will result in traffic loss when rekeying the router.
Workaround: Is to keep permit ip any as the last acl in the KS ACL set.
•CSCtd48203
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Router, after the last cache engine in a WCCP service group goes away, packets start getting dropped instead of being forwarded to original destination.
This problem occurs when the last cache engine present in a WCCP service group becomes unavailable.
Workaround: To overcome this problem, remove the global service group definition of the service group whose all CEs have become unavailable by using the following CLI conf t:
conf t
no ip wccp <web-cache | service-group-id>
(or)
Remove the redirect in config from the interfaces on which the service group is attached, like
conf t
int <interface name>
no ip wccp <web-cache | service-group-id> redirect in

•CSCse53019
The BGP prefixes that should be redistributed to an IGP are not redistributed. When a route-map is used on the redistribution from BGP to the IGP and in the route-map statements such as `match as-path...'or `match community..'are used to deny/allow networks to be redistributed. The network is initially received by BGP with an as-path/community that is denied by the route-map and later on the as-path/community changes which should allow it through the route-map but this never happens. The other way around is also affected, thus initially the BGP prefix being allowed but then later having a prefix in the BGP/routing table that should NOT be redistributed in the IGP but is being redistributed.
Workaround: Is to'clear ip route <prefix>' or 'clear ip route * ' will trigger redistribution checking. Alternatively BGP table maps can be used to set tag and to redistribute based on tag and not on as-path/community.
Further Problem Description: When certain attributes such as as-path or communities for an existing BGP prefix change, the routing table is updated but redistribution is never called so if redistribution from BGP to IGP's is based on a route-map which uses match community/match as-path statements then they will never be re-evaluated. This can lead to routing loops or blackholes.
Workaround: None
•CSCsq03955
On the ASR 1000 Router Series there are certain comands, such as show platform hardware qfp act stat drop | ex _0_, when executed on the newly active FP after the previously active FP was removed, may crash the smand process. The smand process crash does not result in the router crashing.

On the ASR 1000 Series Router when the SDP HTML template are between 1KiB and 10KiB this may cause an abrupt termination of the SDP process. In rare instances the HTTP post to the HTTP server in an On the ASR 1000 Series Router is size-limited. The limit is set to 32KiB by default. In the SDP process, the transition from introduction page to the completion page involves an HTTP post. The post contains information including the SDP bootstrap configuration and the completion template together with the overhead of HTTP post communication. The size limit might be reached with moderate usage of HTML elements. The HTTP post in SDP is base-64 encoded. The total size limit of the SDP bootstrap and the completion template is roughly (32KiB - 2KiB(overhead))* 3/4(base-64 encoding) = 22.5KB.
Workaround: Is to reduce the size of the HTML template, and abridge the configuration. The total size of the two cannot exceed ~22.5KB.

When a switchover occurs on the ASR1000 Router Series for L2TP LAC thousands of sessions with tunnels are being disconnected, in some instances some sessions will be left in a "stale" state on the newly active RP. Apart from memory wastage, there is a functionality impact too future sessions with tunnels with the same session with tunnel ids as these stale sessions may be rejected.
Workaround: Is to clear these stale sessions by using any clear commands. As a possible workaround is to ensure that all tunnels complete resync successfully by ensuring that either all sessions in it are not being disconnected at the same time that a switchover occurs OR by configuring "l2tp tunnel timeout no-session <high value/never>" on both LAC and LNS so that tunnel stays up even after there are no more sessions in it (so that it can complete successful resync).

BGP prefixes that should be redistributed to an IGP are not redistributed.
A route-map is used on the redistribution from BGP to the IGP and in the route-map statements such as `match as-path... or match community...' are used to deny/allow networks to be redistributed. The network is initially received by BGP with an as-path/community that is denied by the route-map. Later on the as-path/community changes which should allow it through the route-map but this never happens.
The other way around is also affected. Thus initially the BGP prefix is allowed but then later having a prefix in the BGP/routing table that should not be redistributed in the IGP but is being redistributed.
Workaround: The commands clear ip route prefix or clear ip route * will trigger redistribution checking. Alternatively BGP table maps can be used to set the tag and to redistribute based on the tag and not on as-path/community.

If a user enters an ambiguous command in adjacency sip submode on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router configured with Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) then the system leaves the prompt at the parent config-sbc-sbe level.
For example, in the following sequence the user enters the ambiguous "re" command:
Router(config-sbc-sbe)# adjacency sip client
Router(config-sbc-sbe-adj-sip)# re
% Ambiguous command: "re"
Now if the user tries to go back into the adjacency sip submode, the following error is displayed and the mode does not change:
Router(config-sbc-sbe)#adjacency sip client
Failed to access SBE cli configuration. Unable to execute command.
Workaround: Exit the config-sbc-sbe submode to the config-sbc level. Then re-enter adjacency sip submode using the sbe and adjacency sip configuration commands as follows:
Router(config-sbc-sbe)# exit
Router(config-sbc)#sbe
Router(config-sbc-sbe)#adjacency sip client

The Cisco ASR 1006 router acting as a Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) Network Server (LNS) failed to apply D2 QoS on the first two PPPoX sessions after every new reboot, but configures D2 QoS on all subsequent sessions.
Workaround: LNS router configures D2 QOS on all subsequent sessions.
•CSCtb08490
IPSecv6 tunnel fails to come up after tunnel protection is configured/unconfigured. The issue is seen when IPv6 traffic is flowing through the tunnel.
Workaround: Stop the traffic before configuring/unconfiguring tunnel protection.
•CSCtb11807
Route Processor (RP) crash occurs when enablingIPv4 and v6 multicast routing and MPLS on the same interface. Multicast MPLS is not a supported mode for the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router. The same interface requires all three features to be configured to cause the RP crash:
–IPv4
–IPv6
–MPLS
–ip sparse-dense mode
The following is a sample configuration:
interface GigabitEthernet0/3/2
ip address 87.87.87.2 255.255.0.0
negotiation auto
ip sparse-dense mode <<< will cause crash
ipv6 address 2004:B010::6/64
ipv6 ospf hello-interval 5
ipv6 ospf 1 area 0
mpls bgp forwarding
cdp enable
end
Workaround: Do not configure MPLS on the same interface that uses IPv4 and IPv6 multicast since multicast MPLS is not a supported feature for Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router.
•CSCtb12998
Not all calls are successful after RP switchover and shutdown, no shutdown of ingress interface.
Workaround: You must reconfigure Session Border Control (SBC).

After prepaid (or possibly any service) download fails, the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router crashes.
Workaround: None
•CSCtb20400
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router may crash when certain IPv6 crypto configurations are unconfigured when configurations are copied from the tftp to running config (copy tftp: running-config). The problem is not seen when the actual CLI is used (as opposed to copy tftp: running-config) on the router to unconfigure IPv6 IPsec. The problem also seems to be specific to RP2 since only the RP2 router has crashed so far, and it does not seem to affect RP1.
Workaround: Use the CLI to unconfigure instead of configuring via the copy tftp: running-config command.
•CSCtb21280
If billing is enabled with multiple instances as part of the Session Border Control (SBC) configuration, calls are processed by both instances for a short period of time and then an unexpected system reload occurs. This issue arises if billing records are being processed by a more than one billing instance.
Billing records are processed for both instances for a short time before an unexpected system reload occurs.
Workaround: At this time, using multiple billing instances leads to an unexpected system reload. Only a single billing instance can be used.
•CSCtb24845

Workaround: None
•CSCtb28856
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, in rare instances, with IP header compression (IPHC) configured, the Embedded Systems Processor (ESP) may unexpectedly reload.
The reload of the ESP may occur when there is a high rate of traffic over an interface that is configured with IPHC and the number of configured IPHC compression-connections is lower than the number of actual flows/connections in the traffic stream.
Workaround: Increasing the number of compression-connections will reduce the likelihood of the Embedded Systems Processor unexpectedly reloading.
•CSCtb29094
With an ASR1002 uSBC with software redundancy, hitting no activate on billing for the second time will result in a system hang. The conditions under which this issue occurs are as follows:
1. On a freshly rebooted router with SBC configuration
2. Voice calls with CDR caching enabled bring down the radius server interface.
Workaround: Don't do no activate again after the first no activate.
•CSCtb29156
When the RADIUS remote Customer template is used on an MLNS router, MLNS brings up a session without VRF configuration. The PPPoX session is up and gets an IP address from the designated VPN Routing and Forwarding (VRF) pool.

•CSCtb30072
With a 1K DMVPN spoke, if you un/re-configure tunnel protection several times and un/re-configure tunnel interface may reset both Embedded Services Processors (ESPs).
Workaround: After unconfiguring a tunnel interface with 1K DMVPN spoke, wait for a few seconds before reconfiguring the same tunnel interface with same DMVPN configuration.
•CSCtb31090
The active ESP resets after the active RP Switchover happens. This occurred with a scaled configuration of static virtual tunnel interfaces (VTIs) up to 2k and bi-directional traffic of throughput 3Gig. After the active RP Switchover and the new RP begins stabilizing, the active ESP resets.
Workaround: None

Traffic loss occurs during Fast Reroute (FRR) link protection in a network with 1000 TE tunnels configured for FRR during Boot up. This condition happened only when the tunnels were configured during Boot up. It did not happen when the tunnels were configured after the router was UP.
Workaround: Configure tunnels after router has booted up.
•CSCtb32502
With a 1K DMVPN spoke, un/re-config tunnel protection several times and un/re-config tunnel interface, RP resets.
Workaround: Wait till all DMVPN session is up/down before next un/re-config tunnel. That is, do not un/re-configure tunnel when there are many sessions in transaction state.
•CSCtb32591
Tunnel interfaces flap without any events as the SA's life timer expires. The tunnel goes down randomly while or when the SAs are recreated. This condition occurs with a scaled configuration of static VTIs very predominantly and with traffic (uni- or bi-directional).

Tracebacks are seen while initiating 4000 sessions on a Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) Network Server (LNS). Tracebacks are seen when a service-policy is configured on the virtual-template and on the RADIUS profile with different names.
Workaround: Use the same service-policy name on the Virtual-template and on the Radius profile.
•CSCtb37274
If billing is enabled with a valid cache path as part of the SBC configuration, and records are being written to a removable device, such as a USB drive, and the device is removed from the router, an unexpected system reload can occur.
This issue occurs if billing records are being written to a removable device and while operations are active, the device is removed from the router. Upon replacing the device and attempting to deactivate billing, an unexpected system reload occurs.
Workaround: To avoid this issue, do not remove the device billing records are cached to while records are being processed.
•CSCtb38886
The commands show sbc name dbe signaling-flow stats and show sbc name dbe media-flow-stat may display incorrect "Packet rate" value.

•CSCtb26955
The following error message is displayed:
%CRYPTO-4-GM_REGSTER_IF_DOWN: Can't start GDOI registration as interface FastEthernet1.2 is down
However, the interface is not actually down, and so the registration should go thru. This issue occurs under the following conditions:
1. Manually clear the rekey SA (clear cry isakmp connid)
2) Wait for the re-registration to start.
Workaround: Manual deleting of rekey SAs is not a valid thing to do. Using the command clear cry gdoi group or removing and adding the crytpo map works.

A Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router using Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Multi Protocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering (MPLS-TE) may reload or operate incorrectly following changes to the configuration of MPLS-TE tunnel interfaces or OSPF. In some instances a configuration change may cause an immediate reload. In other instances, memory may be corrupted, resulting in problems later.
•CSCsw63003
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router functioning as a provider edge (PE) router, continuous Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) activity results in the increasing allocation of BGP path attributes and increasing memory usage. Because of the continuous BGP activity, existing path attributes are not being reused, and, as a result, the number of BGP path attributes allocated increases even when the number of routes is not increasing.

Open Shortest Path First version 3 (OSPFv3) sessions on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router flap due to the expiration of the dead timer. This condition seems to occur after a reload of the router. Executing a multicast ping does not work from one end of the link. The first hello message seems to be received, but not the subsequent ones.
•CSCsy58115
The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) process on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router may stop freeing memory and hold increased amounts of memory over time. This condition occurs because some BGP neighbors that are not in an established state are exchanging prefixes.

On a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router with IP interworking in Ethernet over MPLS over GRE (EoMPLSoGRE) and keepalive enabled on a Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) tunnel, ip irdp packets from the customer edge (CE) router get stuck in the interface input queue of the xconnect interface.
•CSCsz31984
The Embedded Services Processor (ESP) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router may reload when parsing certain H.225 packets by the H.323 Application Layer Gateway (ALG). This condition may be caused by malformed H.225 packets with TCP fragmentation.
•CSCsz47599
The T3/E3 interface on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router does not come up after the router reloads. This condition is the result of a timing issue.

The Embedded Services Processor (ESP) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router reloads when firewall sessions are cleared using the clear zone-pair inspect sessions command in scaled scenarios. This condition is only associated with SIP sessions and when the SIP ALG requests many levels of sub-channels.
•CSCsz79403
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, a Virtual Private Dialup Network (VPDN) failover does take effect with certain VPDN IP addresses. This condition occurs because two busy L2TP Network Server (LNS) IP addresses are detected. Because its busy timeout is set to 1 second, the L2TP Access Concentrator (LAC) gets stuck in a loop adding an IP address to the busy list in one second and removing the IP address from the list in the next second.

•CSCta08805
When a per-feature push to change the qos policy-map by a Change of Authorization (CoA) request is followed by a switchover on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, the session policy-map is no longer functional after the switchover. This condition occurs because High Availability (HA) is not supported with per-feature push.
•CSCta10015
A temporary failure to send an Internet Protocol Communications (IPC) log ACK message causes the Embedded Services Processor (ESP) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router to no longer be able to receive configuration updates from the control-plane.
•CSCta11780
Call Admission Control (CAC) and billing configurations are missing on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router after a double RP switchover (for example, if an RP1 to RP0 switchover is followed by an RP0 to RP1 switchover).
•CSCta11932
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) only times out IPv4 end-to-end incomplete calls after it receives the media timeouts. The expected behavior is that incomplete calls will time out much sooner and at a more even rate (of 50 CPS). As a result, CUBE becomes congested. Eventually, CUBE may reach its max activating calls limit (which is 800 on an RP1), and stop accepting any new calls.
•CSCta14525
On rare occasions, the SPA Interface Processor (SIP) card on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router repeatedly reloads on bootup, followed by reloads of other SIP cards and Embedded Services Processor (ESP) cards.

This section documents possible unexpected behavior by Cisco IOS XE Release 2.4.0.
•CSCsu32069
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router reloads when Call Home tries to establish a secure http connection to a server.
This problem is observed under the following conditions:
– The Call Home profile has an http destination address pointing to a secure http server. For example:
destination address http
https://172.17.46.17/its/service/oddce/services/DDCEService
–No certification authority has been declared (using the crypto pki trustpoint command) to be used by secure http connection.
Workaround: Configure a certification authority to be used by the secure http connection using the crypto pki trustpoint command.
•CSCsw16157
A Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router using Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Multi Protocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering (MPLS-TE) may reload or operate incorrectly following changes to the configuration of MPLS-TE tunnel interfaces or OSPF. In some instances a configuration change may cause an immediate reload. In other instances, memory may be corrupted, resulting in problems later.
To be exposed to this problem, a router must have MPLS TE tunnel interfaces that are announced to OSPF. Systems that do not run OSPF or that do not use MPLS-TE are not affected.
Routers using MPLS-TE primary auto-tunnels are particularly vulnerable because those tunnel interfaces may be removed as a result of network topology changes as well as by modifying the running configuration.
Routers using auto backup tunnels to provide fast reroute for static MPLS-TE tunnels do not have any extra exposure to this problem because while these backup tunnels may be removed due to topology changes, the static tunnel to the same destination will not be removed.
Some of the configuration changes that may cause the incorrect behavior are as follows:
–The router may reload when the following configuration commands are issued:
Global configuration mode commands:
* no interface tunnel n
* no router ospf
* no mpls traffic-eng auto-tunnel
Interface configuration mode commands:
* no ip unnumbered
* no ip address
Exec mode command:
* clear mpls traffic-eng auto-tunnel
–Removing the last MPLS-TE tunnel interface to a destination.
–Removing an auto-tunnel configuration.
–Removal of dynamically created auto-tunnel interfaces as a result of changes in the network topology.
Normal UP/DOWN state changes of tunnel interfaces do not cause problems.
Workarounds: The possible workarounds include:
–To remove an MPLS-TE tunnel interface, first configure it down with the shutdown command in interface submode.
–To remove an OSPF instance, first disable MPLS-TE for the instance by configuring the no mpls traffic-eng area n command in router ospf submode.
–No workaround is available for MPLS-TE auto-tunnels.
•CSCsw63003 confirm as still showing Resolved
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router functioning as a provider edge (PE) router, continuous Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) activity results in the increasing allocation of BGP path attributes and increasing memory usage.
Because of the continuous BGP activity, existing path attributes are not being reused, and, as a result, the number of BGP path attributes allocated increases even when the number of routes is not increasing.
Workaround: Reload the router if low memory conditions are reached, or identify the root cause of the continuous activity and attempt to fix that cause if possible.
•CSCsx08861
When an Any Transport over MPLS (AToM) virtual circuit (VC) subinterface is removed and then recreated (reprovisioned) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, the VC status on the standby RP should show as "HOTSTANDBY," but it shows as "DOWN." If a forced switchover is executed using the redundancy force-switchover command, the VC experiences about 44 seconds of traffic loss.
Workaround: There are two possible workarounds for this issue.
1. Do not reconfigure the AToM VC immediately after deleting the subinterface.
2. Do not copy and paste the AToM VC configuration. Either do it manually step by step or copy the configuration from file.
•CSCsy19417
When the number of Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) prefixes exceeds 300K in a Layer 3 VPN (L3VPN) scenario on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router and a reload is executed, Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) is disabled. Before the reload, CEF functioned even though there were as many as 400K prefixes

The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) process on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router may stop freeing memory and hold increased amounts of memory over time.
This condition occurs because some BGP neighbors that are not in an established state are exchanging prefixes. The condition can be diagnosed by examining the out put of the show process memory sort, show ip bgp sum, and show ip bgp vpnv4 all sum commands. The output will show that the number of BGP attributes is increasing over time in relation to the BGP prefixes even though the number of paths remains approximately the same.
Workaround: Remove the configurations related to the inactive neighbors (neighbors in the Idle or Active states.)
•CSCsy73014
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, the Internet Protocol Communications (IPC) RX flow control signals do not function properly. Traffic in excess of the IPC RX rising threshold will trigger the IPC RX STOP signal. However, when traffic levels drop below the falling threshold, the IPC RX START signal will not be sent.

Shutting down subinterfaces configured with bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) results in traceback.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz24818
When the ip telnet source interface command is configured to point at an interface that has an IPv6 address on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, the RP resets.
Workaround: Do not use the ip telnet source interface command.
•CSCsz25573
When the pado delay parameter is configured under 4000 bba-groups on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router configured as an L2TP Access Concentrator (LAC), the following error message appears repeatedly at the router:
%AAA-3-ACCT_LOW_MEM_UID_FAIL: AAA unable to create UID for incoming calls due to insufficient
If the configuration is saved to NVRAM, the router reloads repeatedly after a reboot
Workaround: If the pado delay configuration is only applied to 1000 bba-groups, the problem does not occur.
•CSCsz26610
An unexpected system reload occurs when the crypto pki authenticate CA command is configured on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router with a certificate that is missing keyUsage = cRLSign.
Workaround: Configure the crypto pki authenticate CA command with a certificate that includes keyUsage = cRLSign.
•CSCsz27068
Under rare conditions, Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) may reset when the interfaces on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router are unconfigured in a very short interval.
This condition is caused by a timing issue in OSPF.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz27200
Although the show ip route ip-address command is supported, the ip-address (or A.B.C.D.) option and its related parameters do not appear in the auto-completion list when the "?" or help prompt is entered for the show ip route command on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router.
For example, note that the ip-address option does not appear in the list of subcommands below:
Router# show ip route ?
bgp Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)
connected Connected
dhcp Show routes added by DHCP Server or Relay
eigrp Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP)
isis ISO IS-IS
list IP Access list
loops RIB routes forming loops
mobile Mobile routes
multicast Multicast global information
odr On Demand stub Routes
ospf Open Shortest Path First (OSPF)
profile IP routing table profile
rip Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
static Static routes
summary Summary of all routes
supernets-only Show supernet entries only
topology Display routes from a topology instance
track-table Tracked static table
vrf Display routes from a VPN Routing/Forwarding instance
| Output modifiers
In addition, no list of optional parameters appear if the "?" or help prompt is entered following the show ip route ip-address command as shown below:
Router# show ip route 3.3.3.3 ?
% Unrecognized command
But the show ip route ip-address command is supported and works as expected:
Router# show ip route 3.3.3.3
Routing entry for 3.3.3.3/32
Known via "ospf 1", distance 110, metric 2, type intra area
Last update from 63.0.0.3 on GigabitEthernet0/3/2, 4d01h ago
Routing Descriptor Blocks:
63.0.0.3, from 3.3.3.3, 4d01h ago, via GigabitEthernet0/3/2
Route metric is 2, traffic share count is 1
* 36.0.0.3, from 3.3.3.3, 4d01h ago, via GigabitEthernet0/3/0
Route metric is 2, traffic share count is 1
Router# show ip route 3.3.3.3 | in ospf
Known via "ospf 1", distance 110, metric 2, type intra area
Workaround: The show ip route ip-address command actually is supported; its syntax just does not appear at the "?" or help prompt. For detailed information on the syntax for the show ip route ip-address command, see the following online documentation at Cisco.com:

•CSCsz31984
The Embedded Services Processor (ESP) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router may reload when parsing certain H.225 packets by the H.323 Application Layer Gateway (ALG).
This condition may be caused by malformed H.225 packets with TCP fragmentation.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz35479
The Embedded Services Processor (ESP) reloads on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router when shut/no shut or soft online insertion and removal (OIR) is executed on an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) interface that has Quality of Service (QoS) configured.
This condition occurs when traffic is passing through the ATM interfaces at the time the shut/no shut sequence (or soft OIR) is performed.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz47599
The T3/E3 interface on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router does not come up after the router reloads.
This condition is the result of a timing issue.
Workaround: Execute a shut/no shut on the affected interface to bring the interface up.
•CSCsz54781
Session interim accounting for PPP over X (PPPoX) sessions is not functioning in Cisco IOS XE Release 2.3.0 and later releases. When interim accounting is enabled on a per-session basis, no interim accounting updates get sent to the AAA server for PPPoX sessions.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz55618
The SSS Manager on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router reports a memory leak when Change of Authorization (CoA) requests are used to turn a parameterized QoS service on or off.
This condition is observed when the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router is configured with PPP Terminated Aggregation (PTA) and terminates PPPoEoQinQ sessions.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz56462
The default behavior of the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router is for the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) to be disabled.
Workaround: To enable CDP, include the cdp enable command in the configuration.
•CSCsz68932
If a user enters an ambiguous command in adjacency sip submode on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router configured with Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) then the system leaves the prompt at the parent config-sbc-sbe level.
For example, in the following sequence the user enters the ambiguous "re" command:
Router(config-sbc-sbe)# adjacency sip client
Router(config-sbc-sbe-adj-sip)# re
% Ambiguous command: "re"
Now if the user tries to go back into the adjacency sip submode, the following error is displayed and the mode does not change:
Router(config-sbc-sbe)#adjacency sip client
Failed to access SBE cli configuration. Unable to execute command.
Workaround: Exit the config-sbc-sbe submode to the config-sbc level. Then re-enter adjacency sip submode using the sbe and adjacency sip configuration commands as follows:
Router(config-sbc-sbe)# exit
Router(config-sbc)#sbe
Router(config-sbc-sbe)#adjacency sip client
Router(config-sbc-sbe-adj-sip)#

•CSCsz72973
The Embedded Services Processor (ESP) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router may reload when malformed H.323 packets are received at a high rate and an Embedded Services Processor (ESP) switchover is in progress.
This problem is intermittent
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz77684
The Embedded Services Processor (ESP) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router reloads when firewall sessions are cleared using the clear zone-pair inspect sessions command in scaled scenarios.
This condition is only associated with SIP sessions and when the SIP ALG requests many levels of sub-channels.
Workaround: To avoid this problem before clearing firewall sessions set up access control lists (ACLs) on the interfaces where the SIP flows traverse. These ACLs should deny SIP control packets (port 5060). The sessions will time out based on the idle time configured by the firewall parameter maps.
Further Problem Description: Firewall sessions are kept in a hierarchy. The numbers of levels in this hierarchy are limited. SIP violated this limit by requesting a hierarchy of sessions hundreds of levels deep. The firewall did not protect itself from this condition. When firewall sessions are cleared, the firewall recursively follows the hierarchy of a given session to tear down all the children and sibling sessions. Because there were hundreds of levels, the firewall exhausted the stack.
•CSCsz79403
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, a Virtual Private Dialup Network (VPDN) failover does take effect with certain VPDN IP addresses.
This condition occurs because two busy L2TP Network Server (LNS) IP addresses are detected. Because its busy timeout is set to 1 second, the L2TP Access Concentrator (LAC) gets stuck in a loop adding an IP address to the busy list in one second and removing the IP address from the list in the next second.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz82461
When a match-time command is executed on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router after deactivating the Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) and the corresponding call policy set, an "Assertion failed" message appears on the console and the router reloads.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz82587
If Multi Protocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering (MPLS-TE) sessions come up or go down during online insertion and removal (OIR) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, the router may reload.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz85306
If Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) is deactivated and activated multiple times on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, an "Assertion failed" message appears on the console and the router reloads.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz86631
Within a few minutes of bringing up Intelligent Services Gateway (ISG) sessions and Session Border Controller (SBC) calls together on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, an exception occurs and the router reloads.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz89484
Blacklisting of a VPN does not take effect on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router configured with Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) for the following configuration:
sbe
blacklist vpn vpn-name
reaason authentication-failure
trigger-size 2
The intended blacklisting action does NOT take effect because the trigger-period is NOT configured.
Workaround: Configure the trigger-period using the trigger-period num time-units command.
•CSCsz92328
None of the interfaces on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router come up after a stateful switchover (SSO) is performed on a configuration with self-signed certificates.
This condition is observed under the following scenario:
1. A Rivest, Shamir, and Adelman (RSA) self-signed certificate is generated on the router.
2. The router is reloaded.
3. An SSO is performed on the router.
Workaround: After the reload, remove and add the self-signed certificate.
•CSCsz94321
When priority bandwidth and bandwidth remaining ratio are configured in a service-policy and the policy is enabled on an Any Transport over MPLS (AToM) virtual path (VP) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, some of the user-defined traffic classes are not guaranteed the configured bandwidth.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCsz94376
When a very large number of calls are being processed through Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) (CUBE) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router and CUBE is deactivated and activated, an exception occurs and the router reloads.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCta00666
W hen the Session Border Controller (SBC) activate command is issued on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router configured with Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition), the RP reloads.
This condition is observed with SBC calls running at 50 CPS.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCta01819
Dynamically changing the session shape rate (parent shape rate) does not take effect with an IPv6 model F QoS over PPPoEoQinQ configuration on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router.
Workaround: Do not change the shape rate dynamically. Remove the policy map before you the change the rate and then re-attach it with the new shape rate.
•CSCta04866
When a malformed SIP message is received on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router configured with Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) (CUBE), traceback appears and the CUBE process reloads.
Workaround: Possible workarounds include:
1. Use of SIP ports outside the standard 5060 range can help mitigate the possibility that an attacker can send malformed messages to the correct address and port.
2. Blacklisting may help as well.
•CSCta05335
Both the Active and Standby Route Processors (RPs) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router reload during sustained traffic.
This condition is observed with IPv4 calls running at 50 CPS that employ SIP INFO for Dual-Tone Multifrequency (DTMF) transport on both caller and callee.
Workaround: Employ another means of DTMF transport such as RFC-2833.
•CSCta05882
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, the Multicast Forwarding Information Base (MFIB) is not populated with the (*,G) and (S,G) entries when the ip pim rp-address command is configured with an access control list value.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCta08805
When a per-feature push to change the qos policy-map by a Change of Authorization (CoA) request is followed by a switchover on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, the session policy-map is no longer functional after the switchover.
This condition occurs because High Availability (HA) is not supported with per-feature push.
Workaround: To change the qos policy-map using a CoA, the service-policy should be present in either a user-profile (downloaded at authentication) or in a service-profile (downloaded at service logon).
•CSCta10015
A temporary failure to send an Internet Protocol Communications (IPC) log ACK message causes the Embedded Services Processor (ESP) on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router to no longer be able to receive configuration updates from the control-plane.
Workaround: Reload the ESP experiencing the problem.
•CSCta10764
The Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) SIP application on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router is not VRF-address aware when overlapping local ip addresses are used.
Workaround: Use non-overlapping local ip addresses.
•CSCta11780
Call Admission Control (CAC) and billing configurations are missing on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router after a double RP switchover (for example, if an RP1 to RP0 switchover is followed by an RP0 to RP1 switchover).
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCta11932
On a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, Cisco Unified Border Element (SP Edition) only times out IPv4 end-to-end incomplete calls after it receives the media timeouts. The expected behavior is that incomplete calls will time out much sooner and at a more even rate (of 50 CPS). As a result, CUBE becomes congested. Eventually, CUBE may reach its max activating calls limit (which is 800 on an RP1), and stop accepting any new calls.
There are no known workarounds.
•CSCta12512
Packets fail to get classified when the IPSec qos-preclassify command is configured on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router.
Workaround: Re-apply the configuration, and the classification should take effect.
•CSCta14525
On rare occasions, the SPA Interface Processor (SIP) card on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router repeatedly reloads on bootup, followed by reloads of other SIP cards and Embedded Services Processor (ESP) cards.
Workaround: There are no known workarounds. The only means of recovery is to reload the router.
Further Problem Description: The core file indicates the reload occurred in the emd (environmental monitoring) process.
