Infrastructure

  • The Junos OS Release 21.2 is in stable12 BSD release and there is a limitation where image validation is not supported across different BSD versions. Image validation fails from stable11 to stable12. For upgrade between different BSD releases, you need to use no-validate option. PR1568757

Platform and Infrastructure

  • Junos OS might hang trying to acquire the SMP IPI lock while rebooting when it is running as a virtual machine on Linux and QEMU hypervisor. PR1385970

  • The issue occurs because of a PECHIP limitation when underlay is tagged. After de-encapsulation, when the inner packet is recirculated, it still retains the VLAN tag property from outer header because the outer header was tagged. Thus 4 bytes of inner tag got overwritten in the inner packet and the packet got corrupted, which will result in EGP chksum trap seen in PECHIP. As a workaround, enable the encapsulate-inner-vlan configuration. PR1435864

  • On QFX10002 switches in a dynamic IP-IP tunnel transit scenario, when sFlow egress sampling is enabled on an aggregated Ethernet interface in an ECMP case, the sFlow export data does not include the next hop field. PR1533307

  • On QFX5100 devices that runs on the qfx-5e codes, when an image with the third party SDK upgrade (6.5.x) is installed, the CPU utilization might go up by around 5 percent. PR1534234

  • On QFX5200 and QFX5100 switches with the IP-IP tunnel feature, the show dynamic-tunnels database statistics command output shows extra packet counts. That is, sampled packets when sFlow is enabled. PR1555922

  • On QFX10002-72Q switches, configuration validation is not supported during an image downgrade or upgrade. PR1579050

  • With the multicast sampling enabled, some packets might be dropped when samples received from the hardware matches the multicast replication rate configured. PR1586690

  • On QFX5120 Series platforms, IRACL filters might not be able to match on VXLAN tunnel terminated packets. PR1594319

Routing Protocols

  • On QFX5120-48YM switches, when the scale of IPv4 and IPv6 routes are present in the LPM profile, a few of the IPv6 routes do not get installed when the ports on which the routes are learnt flaps due to the LPM table full error. PR1557655
