What's Changed

Learn about what changed in this release for QFX Series Switches.

EVPN

  • Commit error if interconnect and local route distinguishers have the same value—On EVPN data center interconnect (DCI) gateway devices, if you configure an interconnect RD at the [edit routing-instances name protocols evpn interconnect] hierarchy, the interconnect RD must be different from the local RD in the routing instance. If you try to configure the same value for the interconnect RD and the local RD in a routing instance, the device enforces this requirement by throwing a commit error. However, with DCI seamless stitching for EVPN Type 5 routes, you don't see the commit error prior to this release. Starting in this release, the device throws the commit error to enforce this condition for DCI stitching with Type 5 routes.

    [See route-distinguisher.]

General Routing

  • Autonegotiation status in show interfaces extensive output (QFX5120-48Y):—The show interfaces extensive output shows the autonegotiation information for SFP-T transceivers.

  • Two new alarms are added and can be seen with MPC11E when 400G-ZR optics are used. High Power Optics Too Warm: warning of the increase in chassis ambient temperature with no functional action taken on the optics Temperature too high for optics power on: New inserted optics when the chassis ambient temperature is elevated beyond the threshold will not be powered on and would need to be reinserted when the ambient temperature is within the acceptable range

  • The packet rate and byte rate fields for LSP sensors on AFT (with the legacy path) have been renamed as jnx-packet-rate and jnx-byte-rate and is in parity with the UKERN behavior. Previously, these rate fields were named as packetRate and byteRate.

  • In older Junos Releases, Data Definition Language (DDL) lists were ordered by the sequence in which the user configured the list items, for example a series of static routes. With this change, the list order is determined by the system with items displayed in numerical sequence rather than by the order in which the items were configured. There is no functional impact to this change.

  • Autonegotiation status in show interfaces extensive output (QFX5120-48Y)—The show interfaces extensive output shows the autonegotiation information for SFP-T transceivers.

Interfaces and Chassis

  • Starting in Junos OS release 23.2R1 and Junos OS Evolved release 23.2R1-EVO, the output of show chassis power command displays the state of the power supply in PTX10003 and QFX10003 platforms.

    [See show chassis power.]

  • When all the members of the AE have the same speed (x) and no mixed speed configured. If you change the speed value of any member of the AE to a value other than x, the commit succeeded in earlier releases. From this release, the commit fails. When there are et interfaces with different speeds and you want them to be part of an AE interface. If you change the speed of all the members of the interfaces to be the same speed (x), configure the AE interface, and commit, the commit failed in earlier releases. From this release, such commits succeed.

Junos XML API and Scripting

  • Ability to commit extension-service file configuration when application file is unavailable—When you set the optional option at the [edit system extension extension-service application file file-name] hierarchy level, the operating system can commit the configuration even if the file is not available at the /var/db/scripts/jet file path.

    [See file (JET).]

  • Ability to restart restart daemonized applications—Use the request extension-service restart-daemonize-app application-name command to restart a daemonized application running on a Junos device. Restarting the application can assist you with debugging and troubleshooting.

    [See request extension-service restart-daemonize-app.]

Network Management and Monitoring

  • Changes to the NETCONF server's <rpc-error> element when the operation="delete" operation deletes a nonexistent configuration object (ACX Series, EX Series, MX Series, PTX Series, QFX Series, SRX Series, vMX, and vSRX )—We've changed the <rpc-error> response that the NETCONF server returns when the <edit-config> operation uses operation="delete" to delete a configuration element that is absent in the target configuration. The error severity is error instead of warning, and the <rpc-error> element includes the <error-tag>data-missing</error-tag> and <error-type>application</error-type> elements.

  • Changes to the RPC response for <validate> operations in RFC-compliant NETCONF sessions (ACX Series, EX Series, MX Series, PTX Series, QFX Series, SRX Series, vMX, and vSRX )—When you configure the rfc-compliant statement at the [edit system services netconf] hierarchy level, the NETCONF server emits only an <ok/> or <rpc-error> element in response to <validate> operations. In earlier releases, the RPC reply also includes the <commit-results> element.

Platform and Infrastructure

  • The ping host | display xml command produces CLI output without errors (ACX Series, PTX Series, and QFX Series)— In Junos OS release 22.4R2, the ping host | display xml command now produces CLI output formatted in XML.

    [See ping.]

  • Previously, shaping of Layer 2 pseudowires did not work on logical tunnel interfaces. This has been fixed for all platforms except QX chip-based MICs and MPCs.

User Interface and Configuration

  • Viewing files with the file compare files command requires users to have maintenance permission—The file compare files command in Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved requires a user to have a login class with maintenance permission.
