In PBB-EVPN (Provider Backbone Bridging - Ethernet VPN) environment, ARP suppression feature which is not supported by PBB might be enabled unexpectedly. This could cause MAC addresses of remote CEs not to be learned and hence traffic loss. PR1529940

On WRL8 based VMHost platforms there is no log rotation for resild log and temperature sensor info is incorrectly written into resild log which could result in continuous logs in resild log file. The disk usage might keep increasing due to this issue. The disk usage could be eventually full which could cause system to hang and reboot. PR1480217

When there are HW link errors occurred on all 32 links on an FPC 11. Because of these link errors, all FPCs reported destination errors towards FPC 11 and FPC 11 was taken offline with reason offlined due to unreachable destinations. PR1483529

After backup Routing Engine halt, CB1 goes offline and comes back online; this leads to the backup Routing Engine booting up, and it shows the reboot reason as "0x1:power cycle/failure." This issue is only for the RE reboot reason, and there is no other functional impact of this. PR1497592

In the platform using INH (indirect next hop, 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 (PFEs). When the version-id of session-id of INH is above 256, the PFE 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 PFE 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

Software defect that causes a 10GE interface to flap continuously when configuring with the WAN-PHY framing with the default "hold-down" timer (0). Once upgrading a router to an affected software release, the interface may flap continuously. This is not applicable to an interface with the default framing - LAN-PHY. PR1508794

The Sync-E to PTP transient simulated by Calnex Paragon Test equipment is not real network scenario. In real network deployment model typically there will be two Sync-E sources (Primary and Secondary) and switchover happens from one source to another source. MPCE7 would pass real network SyncE switchover and associated transient mask. PR1557999

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

On MX-VC (Virtual Chassis) platforms with MS-MPC or SPC3 service cards and AMS(Aggregated Multi-Service), traffic on the line card in the backup chassis may not be load-balanced properly due to timing conditions. This works well on the line card in the master chassis. There might be traffic loss when interfaces are not properly balanced. PR1605284

Sometimes cores are reported on backup Routing Engine during init after a reboot etc. When the backup Routing Engine initialization is being done and system is busy, some commands executed in context of spmbpfe are taking more time to complete due to the initial heavy lifting by the kernel, In this stage, if in case the commands from spmbpfe process do not complete for less than 2.5 seconds, then there are chances of spmbpfe cores. This is a temporary issue seen on backup Routing Engine during init time only. This may not be impacting because if in case spmbpfe process crashes due to this, it would restart by itself and continue to init and run once the initial high CPU condition has passed. It should not cause any functionality or performance impact especially since it is reported only on backup Routing Engine. PR1675268

If MVRP is enabled on an MSTP enabled interface, the interface will be made part of all the existing instances on the switch, So, if there are two interfaces between R1 and R2 as below: R1(et-0/0/1 & et-0/0/2)======(et-0/0/1 & et-0/0/2)R2 And one interface is MVRP enabled (say et-0/0/1), and et-0/0/2 is not MVRP enabled. By configuration et-0/0/1 is part of MSTI-1 and et-0/0/2 is part of MSTI-2. MSTI-1 is running on vlan-100 and MSTI-2 is running on Vlan-200. R2 in this case, is advertising only vlan-100. The MVRP enabled interface will become part of all the MSTIs(MSTI-1 and MSTI-2 both) configured on the device and it will take part in the FSM of all the MSTIs. Although et-0/0/1 is not member interface of vlan-200(correspnding to MSTI-2). This potentially can cause a problem where et-0/0/1 although not a vlan-200 member, will go into FWD state and et-0/0/2, genuine member of vlan-200 goes into BLK state for MSTI-2. So, when traffic is received in vlan-200 it will be sent out of et-0/0/1, an it will be dropped.PR1686596
