Restrictions in Cisco IOS XE 3.18S Releases

  • In Cisco IOS XE Release 3.18S, PTP packets carrying MPLS labels are not supported in the ingress or egress direction on the RSP3 module.
  • This is applicable only to Cisco ASR 903 RSP2 module. Traffic is dropped when packets of size 64 to 100 bytes are sent on 1G and 10G ports:

blank.gif For 64-byte packets, traffic drop is seen at 70% and beyond of the line rate.

blank.gif For 90-byte packets, traffic drop is seen at 90% and beyond of the line rate

blank.gif For 95-byte packets, traffic drop is seen at 95% and beyond of the line rate.

Traffic is dropped when:

blank.gif Traffic is sent on a VRF interface

blank.gif Traffic is sent across Layer 2 and Layer 3

However, traffic is not dropped when the packet size is greater than 100 bytes, even if the packets are sent bi-directionally at the line rate.

Caveats in Cisco IOS XE 3.18S Releases

Caveats describe unexpected behavior. Severity 1 caveats are the most serious caveats. Severity 2 caveats are less serious. Severity 3 caveats are moderate caveats and only select severity 3 caveats are included in this chapter.

This section describes caveats in Cisco IOS XE 3.18S releases. The following information is provided for each caveat:

  • Symptom—A description of what is observed when the caveat occurs.
  • Conditions—The conditions under which the caveat has been known to occur.
  • Workaround—Solutions, if available, to counteract the caveat.

The Dictionary of Internetworking Terms and Acronyms contains definitions of acronyms that are not defined in this document:
