Release Notes for Cisco SD-WAN Cloud onRamp for Colocation Solution, Release 20.8.1


Note

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on standards documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.


New and Enhanced Features

This section lists the new and modified features that are supported on the Cisco SD-WAN Cloud OnRamp for Colocation solution.

  • Support for SVL Port Configuration on 100G Interfaces: Starting from this release, you can configure a StackWise Virtual Link (SVL) port on 100G interfaces when creating a colocation cluster with two Cisco Catalyst 9500-48Y4C switches, thus ensuring a high level of performance and throughput. Earlier, you could configure an SVL port only on 10G interfaces of a Cisco Catalyst 9500-40X switch or 25G interfaces of a Cisco Catalyst 9500-48Y4C switch.

Software and Hardware Behavior Changes in Cisco SD-WAN Cloud onRamp for Colocation Solution, Release 20.8.1

Behavior Change

Description

Change in time-out behavior for template push to CCM.

In Cisco vManage Release 20.7.x and earlier releases, the Cisco Colo Manager (CCM) and CSP device configuration tasks time out 30 minutes after the tasks are created. In the case of long-running image installation operations, these configuration tasks may time out and fail, while the cluster activation state continues to be in a pending state.

From Cisco vManage Release 20.8.1, the CCM and CSP device configuration tasks time out 30 minutes after the last heartbeat status message that Cisco vManage received from the target devices. With this change, long-running image installation operations do not cause configuration tasks to fail after a predefined interval of time after task creation.

Change in CCM workflow.

In Cisco vManage Release 20.7.x and earlier releases, Cisco Colo Manager (CCM) bring up and activation progress is reported as part of the CLOUD ONRAMP CCM task. This task shows the seven steps in the CCM bring up and activation sequence and indicates whether the sequence was successfully completed or not. The Push Feature Template Configuration task shows the status of the RBAC settings configuration push.

From Cisco vManage Release 20.8.1, CLOUD ONRAMP CCM task is completed when Cisco vManage receives CCM Healthy from the target CSP device. The Push Feature Template Configuration task shows the seven steps in the CCM bring up and activation sequence and indicates whether the sequence was successfully completed or not, along with the status of the RBAC settings configuration push.

Important Note

Deactivate cluster workflow is not supported: The workflow to deactivate a cluster and then subsequently activate the cluster is not supported through vManage. Therefore, it is recommended to delete and recreate the cluster, instead.
