What's Changed

Learn about what changed in this release for ACX Series routers.

General Routing

  • Control Maximum 802.1X Client Connections per Interface—By default, dot1x interfaces configured in multiple supplicant mode have a client limit of 100 authenticated connections per interface. Any additional connection attempts beyond this limit will be automatically blocked.

  • New option for debug collector data storage path—We've included the outdir option to specify an output directory for storing debug collector data in a customised path. This allows you to organise and access diagnostic information more efficiently, adapting storage[ to your specific requirements.

  • A new counter Sessions hit due to high rate is added to the show services service-sets screen-session-limit-counters command for all subscriber traffic. This counter tracks the sessions that come up on the screen irrespective of the alarm-without-drop configuration. When the alarm-without-drop option is disabled, all the counters display updated statistics. When alarm-without-drop is enabled, then, the screen-drop counters on the show services service-sets statistic screen-drop command do not increase. TheSessions hit due to high rate value is displayed.

    When you run the request vmhost zeroize command to zeroize a single Routing Engine on a dual Routing Engine device, the CLI incorrectly displays a message indicating that it will zeroize both Routing Engines

  • Validation of /vm-primary mount during JDM installation or upgrade (Junos Node Slicing External Server Deployment)—During installation or upgrade of the Juniper Device Manager (JDM) on external servers running Junos Node Slicing Release 25.2 or later, an issue occurred with the validation of the /vm-primary mount that stores the GNF images. When /vm-primary was mounted using logical volumes (LVM), JDM would fail to detect that the underlying storage was an SSD. This issue is now fixed. However, the fix introduces a new dependency on the LVM2 package in the host OS. This package is included by default in standard installations of both RHEL and Ubuntu external servers. However, it is advised that you check if the LVM2 package is already installed on the host before installing or upgrading JDM.

Network Management and Monitoring

  • Deprecation of shell option—The shell option no longer requires a separate configuration and is now the default behavior. Deprecating the shell option enhances efficiency and simplifies management tasks.

User Interface and Configuration

  • Stale ui-state.db data in persistent NETCONF sessions post-mgd restart-Existing NETCONF sessions might fetch stale data from ui-state.db after mgd -N restart. New sessions correctly map the refreshed database. Scripts must establish new sessions post-restart to access updated values. Functional configuration remains unaffected. Script failures monitoring "local-host" NETCONF sessions-Scripts might fail when including "local-host" NETCONF sessions in monitoring operations. Internal sessions are now excluded from tracking. Scripts must filter out "local-host" sessions. No impact to internal application functionality.

  • Generate genstate YANG modules on Junos devices—You can use show system schema operational command or equivalent RPC to generate the genstate YANG modules in the specified output directory on a device.
