What's Changed

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

EVPN

  • Limit on number of IP address associations per MAC address per bridge domain in EVPN MAC-IP database--By default, devices can associate a maximum of 200 IP addresses with a single MAC address per bridge domain. We provide a new CLI statement to customize this limit, mac-ip-limit statement at the [edit protocols evpn] hierarchy level. In most use cases, you don't need to change the default limit. If you want to change the default limit, we recommend that you don?t set this limit to more than 300 IP addresses per MAC address per bridge domain. Otherwise, you might see very high CPU usage on the device, which can degrade system performance.

    [See mac-ip-limit.]

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.

General Routing

  • Before this change most list were ordered by the sequence in which the user configured the list items, for example a series of static routes. After 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.

  • ACX7509. NOTE: In the CLI using the command request chassis feb slot slot-number offline if you make the primary FEB offline, a traffic loss warning message is displayed and the FEB offline request is rejected. If offline/restart is still intended for primary FEB, use force option in addition to the command. WARNING message displayed in the CLI: "warning: RCB and FEB work in the paired slot mode. FEB %s offline/restart will result in traffic loss and does not cause a switchover. Please re-try after initiating a mastership switchover using 'request chassis routing-engine master switch' CLI. If offline/restart is still intended, use 'force' option in addition to this CLI."

  • ephemeral-db-support statement required to configure MSTP, RSTP, and VSTP in the ephemeral configuration database (ACX Series, EX Series, and QFX Series)--To configure Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), or VLAN Spanning Tree Protocol (VSTP) in the ephemeral configuration database, you must first configure the ephemeral-db-support statement at the [edit protocols layer2-control] hierarchy level in the static configuration database.

    [See Enable and Configure Instances of the Ephemeral Configuration Database.]

Junos XML API and Scripting

Network Management and Monitoring

  • NETCONF <copy-config> operations support a file:// URI for copy to file operations (ACX Series, EX Series, MX Series, QFX Series, SRX Series, vMX, and vSRX)—The NETCONF <copy-config> operation supports using a file:// URI when <url> is the target and specifies the absolute path of a local file.

    [See <copy-config>.]

  • ephemeral-db-support statement required to configure MSTP, RSTP, and VSTP in the ephemeral configuration database (ACX Series, EX Series, and QFX Series)—To configure Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), or VLAN Spanning Tree Protocol (VSTP) in the ephemeral configuration database, you must first configure the ephemeral-db-support statement at the [edit protocols layer2-control] hierarchy level in the static configuration database.

    [See Enable and Configure Instances of the Ephemeral Configuration Database.]

Routing Protocols

  • Optimized mesh group routes (QFX5110, QFX5120, QFX5130, QFX5700 and ACX Series)show route snooping for inet.1/inet6.1 table and show route snooping table inet.1/inet6.1 will display only CE mesh group routes for platforms that support EVPN-MPLS or EVPN-VxLAN multicast. In earlier releases, other mesh groups like the VE mesh group were also displayed.

VPN

  • Increase in revert-delay timer range—The revert-delay timer range is increased to 600 seconds from 20 seconds.

    [See min-rate.]
