Class of Service (CoS)
-
The
show class-of-service interface
command might not show the classifier bind information on a logical interface with only Inet/Inet6 (without family MPLS or not with any rewrite rules). Show issue, Classifier will be still present and functional. No impact to the traffic PR1652342 -
The aggregated Ethernet interfaces in per-unit-scheduler mode and committing CoS configuration on aggregated Ethernet logical interfaces in a single commit leads to race-conditions.PR1666010
EVPN
-
A few duplicate packets might be seen in an A/A EVPN scenario when the remote PE device sends a packet with an IM label due to MAC not learned on the remote PE device, but learned on the A/A local PE device. The nondesignated forwarder sends the IM-labeled encapsulated packet to the PE-CE interface after MAC lookup instead of dropping the packet, which causes duplicate packets to be seen on the CE side. PR1245316
-
In PBB-EVPN (Provider Backbone Bridging - EVPN) environment, ARP suppression feature which is not supported by PBB might be enabled unexpectedly. This might not learn the MAC addresses of remote CE devices resulting in traffic loss. PR1529940
-
EVPN-MPLS multi-homing control MACs are missing after vlan-id removal and adding back on a trunk logical interface of one of the multi-homing PE devices. This is not a recommended way to modify vlan-id configuration. Always both MH PEs needs be in symmetric. PR1596698
-
EVPN local ESI MAC limit configuration might not get effective immediately when it has already learned remote MH MACs. Clear the MAC table from all MH PEs and configure the MAC limit over local ESI interfaces. PR1619299
-
The current implementation based on RFC 7432, do not have support for changes in DF election upon deactivation of a routing instance on a PE with multiple routing instances, also the current implementation does not support AD/EVI per ethernet tag. To address this issue, the "AC influenced DF election" procedure defined in RFC 8584 needs to be implemented.PR1677206
Flow-based and Packet-based Processing
-
Use an antireplay window size of 512 for IPv4 or IPv6 in fat-tunnel. The ESP sequence check might otherwise report out-of-order packets if the fat-tunnel parallel encryption is within 384 packets (12 cores * 32 packets in one batch). Hence, there are no out-of-order packets with 512 antireplay window size. PR1470637
Forwarding and Sampling
-
When the
fast-lookup-filter
statement is configured with a match that is not supported in the FLT hardware, traffic might be lost. PR1573350
General Routing
-
When you perform GRES with the interface em0 (or fxp0) disabled on the primary Routing Engine, then enable the interface on the new backup Routing Engine, it isn't able to access network. PR1372087
-
AFEB crashing with PTP thread hog on the device. Through this fix PTP packet processing is done when PTP is enabled that is, when PTP configuration is active. If the PTP configuration is not there we will ignore PTP packet processing even if FPGA is showing PTP packet is available. The issue is very rare issue. The fix is in 15.1F6 and onward and 16.1 PR1068306
-
If a vmhost snapshot is taken on an alternate disk and there is no further vmhost software image upgrade, the expectation is that if the current vmhost image gets corrupted, the system boots with the alternate disk so the user can recover the primary disk to restore the state. However, the host root file system and the node boots with the previous vmhost software instead of the alternate disk. PR1281554

With Next Generation Routing Engine (NG-RE), in some race conditions, the following interrupts messages might be seen on master RE: kernel: interrupt storm detected on "irq11:"; throttling interrupt source PR1386306
-
On MX Series devices with MPC7E, MPC8E, or MPC9E installed, if optics QSFPP-4X10GE-LR from Innolight vendor (subset of modules with part number 740-054050) is used, the link might flap. PR1436275
-
Upon MPC11 boot up, errors such as following could be seen, but these are harmless and does not have functional impact. timestamp device kernel: i2c i2c-100: (11/1:0x41) i2c transaction error (0x00000002) timestamp device kernel: i2c i2c-64: (7/1:0x41) i2c transaction error (0x00000002) PR1457655
-
On NFX250 devices in a rare condition, virtual port peer (VPP) functionality might not run on dual CPE (customer premises equipment) and occasionally on single CPE. This issue is seen when a redis database file 'appendonly.aof' had stale entries before redis-server started upon boot. PR1461238
-
The SCHED L4NP[0] parity errors are observed. PR1464297
-
When hardware link errors occur on all 32 links on an FPC 11, all FPCs reported destination errors towards FPC11 and FPC11 is taken offline with "offlined due to unreachable destinations" reason. PR1483529
-
When you run the
show pfe filter hw filter-name filter name
command, the command fails to retrieve the Packet Forwarding Engine programming details of the filter. PR1495712 -
After backup Routing Engine stops, CB1 goes offline and comes back online resulting in restarting the backup Routing Engine. The backup Routing Engine reboots because of "0x1:power cycle/failure" message. There is no other functional impact. PR1497592
-
In the platform using indirect next hop (INH), such as unilist as route next hop type for multiple paths scenario (such as BGP PIC or ECMP), the session fast-reroute might be enabled in Packet Forwarding Engines. When the version-id of session-id of INH is above 256, the Packet Forwarding Engine might not respond to session update, which might cause the session-id permanently to be stuck with the weight of 65535 in PFE. It might lead Packet Forwarding Engine to have a different view of unilist against load-balance selectors. Then either the BGP PIC or the ECMP-FRR might not work properly and traffic might be dropped or silently discarded. PR1501817
-
A delay of 35 seconds is added in reboot time in Junos OS Release 20.2R1 compared to Junos OS Release 19.4R2. PR1514364
-
When an AMS physical interface is configured for the first time or any member of the AMS bundle is removed or added, the PICs on which the members of AMS bundle are present go for a reboot. There is a timer running in the AMS kernel which is used as a delay for the PIC reboot to complete and once that timer expires AMS assumes that the PICs might have been rebooted and it moves into next step of AMS fsm. In scaled scenarios, this rebooting of the PIC is delayed due to DCD. This is because when a PIC goes down, DCD is supposed to delete the physical interfaces on that PIC and then the PIC reboot happens. But DCD is busy processing the scaled config and the physical interface deletion is delayed. This delay is much greater than the timer running in AMS kernel. When the above timer expires, the FSM in AMS kernel wrongly assumes the PIC reboot would be completed by then, but the reboot is still pending. By the time DCD deletes this physical interface the AMS bundles are already UP. Because of this, there is a momentary flap of the bundles. PR1521929

In scaled MX2020 router, with vrf localisation enabled, 4 million nexthop scale, 800k route scale. FPCs might go offline on GRES. Post GRES, router continues to report many fabric related CM_ALARMs. FPC might continue to reboot and not come online. Rebooting primary and backup Routing Engine will help recover and get router back into stable state. PR1539305

5M DAC connected between QFX10002-60C and MX2010 does not link up. But with 1M and 3M DAC this interop works as expected. Also it is to be noted QFX10002-60C and ACX or Traffic generator the same 5M DAC works seamlessly. There seems to be certain SI or link level configuration on both QFX10002-60C and MX2010 which needs to be debugged with the help from HW and SI teams and resolved. PR1555955

CLI not displaying right CPU utilization. PR1557751 -
VE and CE mesh groups are default mesh groups created for a given Routing instance. On vlan/bridge-domain add, flood tokens and routes are created for both VE and CE mesh-group/flood-group. Ideally, VE mesh-group doesn't require on a CE router where IGMP is enabled on CE interfaces. Trinity based CE boxes have unlimited capacity of tokens, so this would not be a major issue. PR1560588

Stale TCNH entries are seen in new primary Routing Engine after switchover with NSR even though all the prpd routes are deleted. These TCNH entries are present because NSR is not supported for BGP static programmable routes. This leads to an extra reference count in the backup Routing Engine, due to which the next hop is not freed. PR1566666

Inline NPT on MX does not translate Source IPv6 of packet with Authentication Header present. The packet is simply passed through upstream. Consequently, it is not expected that downstream traffic arrives with NPT pool IPv6 address as IPv6 destination address and with Authentication header. Such traffic would be malicious and this must be handled via external configuration. The fix suggested is to configure firewall for downstream direction that blocks traffic destined to NPT pool address and with authentication header. PR1592957

EX4400 platforms have a Cloud LED on the front panel to indicate the onboarding of the device to cloud (day0) and management after onboarding (day1). If MIST is used as a Management entity in cloud then, the cloud LED will display green in situations where device would have lost connectivity to cloud. This is dues to MIST using outbound SSH for management. This behavior is not applicable to any other management entity which uses outbound https and LED will display appropriate states to indicate the loss on connection to cloud. PR1598948

Comparing convergence time with Junos OS Release 21.1R1.5, seen degradation in isisv6 , ospfv2 and ospfv3 convergence time. As it is a convergence time issue, many components will be involved and hence need investigation from multiple teams (RPD, Kernel, PFE). These kind of issue will require multiple iteration of experiments to narrow it down, a bit difficult to do RCA and it takes some good amount of time. Considering these points, marking this as known issue. PR1602334

Update the release note for the RLI 45750 with info describing the issue and list of potential workarounds avalable. Issue summary: When high pps traffic sent for a 'establish tunnels on-tarffic' ipsec vpn with S2S configuration, IKED process will be inundated with IKE trigger and IKE negotiation messages from peer. This causes delay in handling messages at IKED process and timeouts for IKE negotiations, and eventually results in tunnels not getting established. This issue could occur when the tunnels are negotiated for the first time or when one of the VMS in the AMS bundle goes down. This issue will be handled as part of another RLI implementation 41450.

and the impact is seen in GNF environment with no explicit COS configuration on the interfaces. Not using "extensive" will ensure there is no issue as well. This is specific to MPC11 with sub LC (GNF) setup.PR1678071

Below IPC timeouts logs can be seen for statistics query to kernel(queried from cli or daemons querying internally)when there is config churn, or large number of IPCs getting exchanged between kernel and pfe in the system. if_pfe_msg_handler: pfe_peer_msg_handler error: error for msg type type, msg subtype subtype, opcode op and peer index index Default IPC timeout value in kernel for IPC statistics request is 10s. This can be incremented to larger value by setting below hidden config to avoid IPC timeout errors. # set system stats-timeout-lifetime 15 # commitPR1629930

Starting from 15.2 mc-lag do not need static entry (ARP/ND) for remote IRB IP as captured in PR 1075917 (CVBC PR 1119732). If customer has already configured static entry (ARP/ND) and tries to remove the static entry on any version higher than 15.2, Remote IRB arp resolution does not happen automatically (when the static arp configuration is present on the version and is removed).

Abrupt termination of the client socket might take time for the disconnect to be detected by JSD. The client would have to wait for the connection terminal to be detected in such cases, which could be around 1 hour or restart JSD before being able to connect back with the same client ID. PR1549044
Layer 2 Features
-
In case of the access-side interfaces used as SP-style interfaces, when a new logical interface is added and if there is already a logical interface on the physical interface, there is 20--50 ms traffic drop on the existing logical interface. PR1367488
Layer 2 Ethernet Services
-
On MX5/MX10/MX40/MX80/MX104 Series platforms with DHCP server configuration for DHCP subscribers, the jdhcpd memory leak might occur and the memory increase by 15MB which depends on the number of subscribers when testing the DHCP subscribers log-in/out. PR1432162
-
Making configuration changes with apply-group add/delete associated with DHCP can result in client connection failure. The failure is a result of not properly clean up and the stale data have the potential for DHCP client connection failure. PR1550628
MPLS

The use-for-shortcut knob is meant to be used only in SRTE tunnels which use SSPF (Strict SPF Algo 1) Prefix SIDs. If "set protocols isis traffic-engineering family inet-mpls shortcuts" and "set protocols isis traffic-engineering tunnel-source-protocol spring-te" is configured on a device, and if any SRTE tunnel using Algo 0 Prefix SIDs is configured with "use-for-shortcut" knob, it could lead to routing loops or rpd cores. PR1578994
-
When there is scaled RSVP sessions, approximately 21,000 and have enabled RSVP for all the interfaces, RPD process walks through all the interfaces. The rpd process results into high CPU and results in LSP flap. PR1595853
-
On all Junos and Junos OS Evolved platforms, the rpd crash will be observed in multi-instance RSVP scenario when a configuration file that has many RSVPs enabled routing-instances gets overridden by another configuration file. Traffic loss will be seen when routing engine restarts.PR1641045
Network Management and Monitoring

When
maximum-password-length
is configured and user tries to configure password whose length exceeds configured maximum-password-length, error is thrown, along with error 'ok' tag is also emitted. (Ideally 'ok' tag should not be emitted in an error scenario.) The configuration does not get committed. PR1585855 -
Junos has a feature to block/deny all hidden commands. Users can get this feature by configuring
set system no-hidden-commands
. However, when this is configured and committed Junos blocks/denies new netconf/junoscript XML sessions. As a workaround, users can deletesystem no-hidden-commands
configuration statement and start the new netconf/junoscript sessions. PR1590350 -
mgd can crash when an invalid value is configured for identityref type leafs/leaf-lists while configuring Openconfig or any other third-party YANG, problem happens with json and xml loads. PR1615773
Platform and Infrastructure
-
The traps are the result of PPE commands injected from the host. One possible reason could be Layer 2 BD code, which is trying to decrement BD MAC count in the data plane. It is unlikely that there is a packet loss during this condition. This could happen during ISSU and this may be due to a problem with ISSU counter morphing used for LU-based cards, where certain counters are not disabled or disabled too late during ISSU. PR1426438
-
With GRES and NSR functionality with VXLAN feature, the convergence time may be slightly higher than expected. Besides, an ARP resolution issue also might be observed before hitting the convergence issue reported to happen after ISSU.PR1520626

On all Junos and Junos OS Evolved platforms, while using source-address NTP configuration parameter and issue the command
set ntp date
from the CLI, packets will be sent with the source address of the outgoing interface rather than the manually configured IP address. Typically, the manually configured IP address would be a loopback address. The problem does not apply to automatically generated NTP poll packets.PR1545022 -
Do not use the control-type light under platforms where this feature is not supported at present. At present IPv4 and IPv6 twamp-light is supported on the platforms using TRIO and PE chipsets. PR1603128

On MX Series platforms, during reboot, the aggregated Ethernet logical interfaces are first added, then deleted and again added, this flapping causes corner case where the filter attachment ipc has older AE ifl index on which the filter bind fails. Filter will not be attached to the interface, so any filter related service will not work. PR1614480

When using group VPN, in certain cases, the PUSH ACK message from the group member to the group key server might be lost. The group member can still send rekey requests for the TEK SAs before the hard lifetime expiry. Only if the key server sends any new PUSH messages to the group members, those updates might not be received by the group member since the key server might have removed the member from registered members list.PR1608290
