Headline: Memory leak at FEX unit.

Symptoms: FEX devices are unexpectedly reloading after the memory is depleted.

Workarounds: None

CSCwe42043

Headline: BGP External-Fallover is not working when TTL-Security is enabled.

Symptoms: When TTL-Security is enabled, BGP Externall-Fallover does not bring down the eBGP session as soon as the physical interface (Eth1/47) is down. Instead, BGP is waiting for the hold timer to expire (which has been configured to be 20 secs).

Workarounds: Disable TTL-Security.

CSCwe43450

Headline: Tahusd Crash caused unexpected reload post ISSU from Cisco NX-OS Release 9.3.6 to Cisco NX-OS Release 9.3.9

Headline: Nexus 9000 silent reload by "Watchdog Timeout."

Symptoms: The N9K-C9504-B3-G device running 10.2.4.M version code unexpected reloads by "Watchdog Timeout."

Workarounds: None

CSCwe50502

Headline: NX-OS Unexpected Reloaded due to Watchdog with high ASIC interrupt counters

Symptoms: Nexus 9000 device unexpectedly reloads with "Watchdog Timeout" reason and without generating core files under "show cores", due to a large number of ASIC interrupts.

Workaround: None. The only way for the device to recover from the influx of interrupts is to reload.

CSCwe51952

Headline: Transient loop in BiDir multicast segment observed during change of DF

Symptoms: Short burst of BiDir multicast traffic during DF change

Workaround: None

CSCwe41327

Headline: SYSMGR-3-CFGWRITE_FAILED: Configuration copy failed due to 100% usage of startup-cfg

Symptoms: Nexus switches may fail to save the config to startup config due to frequent changes to the ACL config with below errors:

2023 Feb 10 13:17:11.746 N3k %PSS-0-PSS_WRITE_DATA_FAILURE: aclmgr: failed to write data to /var/sysmgr/startup-cfg/bin/aclmgr_start_cfg_user block 8785: partial write

Workaround: Avoid the growing usage of startup-cfg by making configuration changes without config session/commit.

Once startup-cfg usage hits 100%, the configuration save to startup will fail. Recovery is by switch reload.

The running configuration can be saved to bootflash if additional configuration can't be saved to the bootflash.

CSCwe55237

Headline: Nexus: Configuring overlapping IPv6 address with different mask on L3 interface does not throw error.

Symptoms: If IPv6 address is configured, which is overlapping on two different L3 interfaces of the same box using different subnets, no warning message is seen. This is not the case for IPv4.

Workaround: Use a subnet calculator to ensure the addresses are not overlapping.

CSCwe53655

Headline: Revert reserved mac blocking behavior for VRRP macs on SVIs

Symptoms: User will not be able to configure VRRP macs on SVI interfaces.

Workaround: None

CSCwe07768

Headline: Nexus 9000 BFD packets placed in the default queue

Symptoms: BFD packets are being put into the default queue, which can cause BFD neighbors to flap when there is buffer congestion.

Workarounds: Manually configure a QoS policy to set BFD packets to QoS group 7 (priority queue).

CSCwe53655

Headline: Revert reserved MAC blocking behavior for VRRP macs on SVIs

Symptoms: User is not able to configure VRRP VMAC on SVI interfaces.

Workarounds: None.

CSCwh50989

Headline: Custom COPP causing transit traffic to be punted to the CPU on Nexus 9300-GX2

Symptoms: When custom-COPP policy contains ACL rules which match on Layer 4 destination or source port, transit traffic also hits the COPP and the packets are copied to CPU. This causes duplication of traffic as CPU also routes the copied packets to the destination.

Workarounds: Custom COPP policy using src/dst match mitigates punt for transit traffic.

Resolved Issues

Bug ID

Description

CSCwd03152

Headline: VLAN Mapping issue and STP inconsistency with single leg VPC

Symptoms:

When Nexus 9000 switches running on version 9.3(9) in vPC connects to a downstream access switch; with single link switch is running VXLAN and vPC port channels has PV mapping configuration; STP state of configured vPC port channel (even though port is in shut state) will be in forwarding state. Translated VLAN in downstream access VLAN will be in broken state due to the receipt of wrong BPDUs.

Workarounds: Enable both links from vPC primary and secondary towards access switch.

CSCwd21451

Headline: SNMP walk on any OID does not return with expected results

Symptoms: SNMP walk on any OID does not return with expected results. Example: ipAdEntAddr IP-MIB or OID returns only 2 IPs even though multiple IPs are configured: server-host% snmpwalk -v 2c -c '***' pnq16-co-agg-r2 IP-MIB::ipAdEntAddrIP-MIB::ipAdEntAddr.10.130.96.4 = IpAddress: 10.130.96.4IP-MIB::ipAdEntAddr.10.130.96.65 = IpAddress: 10.130.96.65

Workarounds: None

CSCwe11348

Headline: Telemetry memory limit reached dropping collection

Symptoms: Telemetry stops working on N9K-C93180YC and N9508Nexus reports memory occupied exceeds the limit allowed and syslog "telemetry memory limit is reached" is generated.

Workarounds:

·         Remove telemetry feature configuration using “no feature telemetry” command.

·         Wait for 3 minutes for the process to gracefully exit.

·         Remove HTTP destination configuration and reapply telemetry configuration.

The telemetry HTTP configuration can be re-applied later once HTTP destination is stable.

CSCwe30433

Headline: IP packets with IP option not routed after reload

Symptoms: Ping with IP option will not be routed on configured Nexus 9500 series switches if the switch comes up just after reload. When packets are not routed, "Ingress ICMP Redirect processing drop" in "show ip traffic" is counted up.

Workarounds: If you have standby supervisor, switchover the supervisor. The issue will not be seen. Note that if switch comes up with no configuration, this issue will not be observed just after configuring switch for routing. Issue will be seen after reload with saved configuration.

CSCwc87548

Headline: Underrun errors transmitted when upgrading from 40 to 100 Gbps on a Nexus 9000 EOR.

Symptoms: When the SFP is replaced to support 100G (QSFP-100G-SR4) or by changing the speed of the port (QSFP-40/100-SRBD), underrun packets are transmitted. However, output errors counter will not increase locally. CRC starts to increase on neighbor device. These ports are configured on a layer 2 Port channel (no vPC) while working at 40G no CRC are seen.

Workarounds: Downgrade to 40 Gbps.

CSCvw14504

Headline: Add OUI 0x4CE176 to OUI Database - Port-channels and trunking not working with OUI 0x4CE176

Symptoms: Port-channels or trunking not working. One symptom might be:<pre>%PORT-5-IF_DOWN: %$VSAN 100%$ Interface fc1/33 is down (Error disabled - port reinit limit reached) </pre>

Workarounds: <pre>configwwn oui 0x4CE176</pre>

CSCwd82039

Headline: Unexpected Supervisor failover due to sys-mgr process crash in NXOS

Symptoms: A Core File is generated due to a crash on the 'sysmgr' process, which causes the supervisor line card to reboot.

Workarounds: None

CSCwc95886

Headline: BGP Additional Paths Not Advertised as Expected When eBGP Peer Is Configured In VPNv4 Address Family

Symptoms: BGP additional paths are not advertised to peers as expected

Workarounds: Remove eBGP neighbors from VPNv4 address family to advertise additional paths as expected

CSCvs79768

Headline: N9K Micron_5100_MTFD "Bootflash Read-Only State" ; Kernel I/O Errors Found

Symptoms: Write operations on a switch fail, 'copy run start', etc. The following error is observed when running "show version"# show versionsh: /mnt/pss/patch_debug.log: Read-only file system`show logging logfile`%USER-3-SYSTEM_MSG: File Writing Failed for /mnt/pss/aaa_vdc_1.seqnum - aaad%SYSMGR-3-CFGWRITE_FAILED: Configuration copy failed (error-id 0x401E0004).%KERN-3-SYSTEM_MSG: [2246055.161748] blk_update_request: I/O error, dev loop9, sector 0 - kernel

Workarounds: None

CSCvz06811

Headline: Nexus Data Broker switch floods IGMPv3 membership queries out of all input ports

Symptoms: IGMP membership queries are flooded out of monitoring ports and IGMP storms due to queries are forwarded from Nexus Data Broker Switch to production network.

Workarounds: Filter the IGMP with an access list.

CSCvz67451

Headline: Bootflash lifetime usage threshold syslog has in correct usage value in show command.

Symptoms: The following syslog will appear when the switch reaches a lifetime usage value of 95% on the bootflash.

PLATFORM-2-BOOTFLASH_LIFETIME_MAJOR: Bootflash lifetime usage crossed 95%. Collect 'show hardware internal bootflash log' and consult with product support team. When the recommended command is checked the output has been observed to have inaccurate usage percentages. These percentages make it difficult to determine if the syslog is correct and if the switch is seeing an issue.

Workarounds: None

CSCwb41711

Headline: DHCP snooping source MAC address validation drops DHCP relay messages

Symptoms: DHCP snooping enabled Nexus switch drops DHCP Discover messages generated by the DHCP relay agent device due to mismatched packet source MAC address and DHCP Client MAC Address field.

Workarounds: disable DHCP snooping MAC address validation.no ip dhcp snooping verify mac-address

CSCwb86366

Headline: aclqos crashes and system reboots when defaulting BO ports that is a member of PO

Symptoms: NXOS crash due to aclqos hap resetissue is seen even after some interface flap on the Nexus switch even with no configuration change.

Workarounds: Upgrade to latest Cisco NX-OS 10.3.x releases

CSCwc36942

Headline: UC_RPF_FAIILUR/uRPF is kept on even when recreating SVI with no uRPF

Symptoms: Asymmetric traffic are dropped with the ELAM final drop of "UC_RPF_FAIILUR"

Workarounds:

·         The “reload ascii” command would load the configuration on reboot instead of binary.

·         Remove the uRPF configuration on SVI before deleting the SVI itself.

CSCwc65941

Headline: Increasing input overruns on the management interface on Nexus 9000

Symptoms: Observed increasing in input overruns on management interface (mgmt0) on N9K when receiving LLDP packets from catalyst (WS-C2960X-48T) switch.

Workarounds: Disable the LLDP configurations on catalyst switch for the mgmt0 attached port.

CSCwc70139

Headline: L2ACLredirect failures are not resulting in kernel panic

Symptoms: L2ACLredirect failures are not resulting in kernel panic

Workarounds: Apply the following EEM for force reload:

event manager applet gold_l2acl override __L2ACLRedirect  action 1 syslog priority emergencies msg L2ACL_test_failed_reloading  action 2 reload force

CSCwc73361

Headline: MPLS Labels not being advertised to neigbour switches after reboot on Nexus 9336C.

Symptoms: Network topology configured with Segment Routing + MPLS network for L3VPNS on 4 X Nexus 9336C switches (NX-OS mode). OSPF as the IGP and to advertise the MPLS labels. Labels are learnt once its configured. Once any one of the Nexus devices are rebooted, the labels from the switch is no longer advertised by the switch that was rebooted to any other neighbour Nexus devices. The same occurs for any switch that is rebooted. OSPF database opaque external type 7 prefix is not generated or advertised to other neighbor switches by the switch which was rebooted.

When a command is entered under the Segment Routing configuration section (for example : global block range or a prefix) something triggers the labels to be advertised via OSPF and the type 7 prefix is visible in the OSPF database and subsequently installed in the MPLS forwarding table of the remaining three switches.

WorkAround: Remove p2p configuration from loopback interface.

CSCwc79911

Headline: vPC in down state with reason 'Inactive' after add on VLAN VNI and peer-ip from another VxLAN

Symptoms: VLAN is removed from active VLANs list on vPC peer-link port-channel after VLAN vn-segment configuration changes.

Workarounds: Delete/re-configure the missing VLAN on both vPC peers:no vlan <vlan_id>vlan <vlan_id>vn-segment <segment-id>

CSCwc81130

Headline: Log reported that N9K-C92348GC's PSU went down and up in 1-3 sec

Symptoms: Syslog reported that N9K-C92348GC's PSU went down and up in 1-30 sec

Workarounds: None

CSCwc93774

Headline: Netflow configured under "vlan configuration" range takes longer than expected.

Symptoms: When configuring netflow under "vlan configuration" for large range (ex: 1-999) as below, the command takes 15 minutes to complete: vlan configuration 1-999  ip flow monitor flow_name inputfor the half range 1-500 the command takes 5 minutes

Workarounds: None

CSCwc99674

Headline: DME inconsistency when custom COPP policy is applied.

Symptoms: "show consistency-checker dme running-config enhanced" fails

Workarounds: None

CSCwd05450

Headline: PVLAN and port flap issue

Symptoms: vPC member port on secondary vPC peer gets flapped once you associate/add/configure a secondary PVLAN to the primary PVLAN; along with the vPC member port is configured as promiscuous PVLAN port.

Workarounds: None

CSCwd11687

Headline: ARP reply packets are dropped if they are received from peer-link

Symptoms: ARP resolution issue on devices connected to N9K devices with -R linecards. Unicast ARP reply packets are not forwarded from Nexus 9000 SVI to the host across the peer-link.

Workarounds: Shut and no shut vPC peer-link.

CSCwd13471

Headline: snmp trap does not send out to specific server

Symptoms: With below SNMP configuration, after reload, snmp trap is sent only to X.X.X.2 and X.X.X.3. It is not sent to X.X.X.1.

Workarounds: Reduce the bootfile-url length to less than 128 characters.

CSCwd29257

Headline: IPv6 OSPF ECMP route does not show both routes as best.

Symptoms: IPv6 OSPF ECMP route does not show both routes marked with asterisk (*) as best, only one route gets marked with the asterisk (as best). Thus, the route from one neighbor shows up with the asterisk and the route from the other neighbor does not.

Workarounds: Clear the IPv6 route as follows:

#clear ipv6 route 2001:fb1::/48

CSCwd41354

Headline: grpcnxsdk works thread is not released properly

Symptoms: The observation is that there exists an ongoing gNMI 5-second sample subscription for System/ptp-items/ephoper-items/pastcorrections-items/PtpEphCorrection-list. When this path is queried, the path itself does not let the gNMI SET to take place.

1.    The repetitive queries every 5 second of this path triggers a bug, which prevents the query itself from finishing.

2.    Then the next gNMI SET is blocked due to this unfinished query.

3.    The client script times out and sends more SET requests, which only pile up and use up the max limit of 16 sessions.

Workarounds: Kill the grpcnxsdk process to recover automatically and make further queries.

CSCwd42595

Headline: Output of show spanning-tree root no longer shows "This bridge is root" for non-vPC VLANs.

Symptoms: When upgrading to Cisco NX-OS Release 9.3(10) the output of command, show spanning-tree root does not indicate if the bridge is root for non-vPC VLANs.

Symptoms: Power supply exhaust fan was observed spinning in wrong direction.

Workarounds: None

CSCwd46964

Headline: Issue with configuring BFD RX interval. The BFD session seems to always use 50 ms as TX interval.

Symptoms: When configuring BFD RX Interval, the BFD echo packets seem to be still transmitted at 50 ms which is the minimum TX Interval. It seems like the desired RX interval which is configured in the config under the interface is not taken into account using the below command - bfd echo-rx-interval 250

Workarounds: Use the below command to specify the BFD TX:

intervalbfd interval 250 min_rx 250 multiplier 3

CSCwd47148

Headline: Smart licensing :: Callhome HTTP proxy is not working when defined using IPv6 address

Symptoms: Communications with CSSM portal not working when using IPv6 HTTP proxy. Device reports:

%LICMGR-3-LOG_SMART_LIC_COMM_FAILED: (pid=xxxx) Communications failure with the Cisco Smart Software Manager (CSSM) : Fail to send out Call Home HTTP message

Workarounds: Instead of referencing the HTTP proxy using IPv6, use HOSTNAME and define the static IPv6 host.

CSCwd53084

Headline: SNMP is not returning any value

Symptoms: snmp get/walk to Nexus 9000 might stop working and returns empty values or note that OID does not exist even if OID should be present and populated on the system.

Workarounds: Restart SNMP process. However, issue might return after the restart.  Performa a new restart if required.

CSCwd54117

Headline: IPv6 ssh not getting denied for default port 22

Symptoms: No command in Nexus CLI syntax to change SSH port number. Changing SSH port number is available in bash mode.

Workarounds: None

CSCwd63807

Headline: Traffic forwarding issues may occur on port-channel having VLAN configured which doesn't exist in database

Symptoms: Traffic forwarding issues may occur on port-channel which has more than one physical member configured. Issues will be seen on physical ports which don't come up as first port in port-channel.

Workarounds:

·         If there is a native VLAN configured which does not exist in VLAN database, then that VLAN should be created.

·         Configuration of native VLAN pointing to non-existing VLAN should be removed and after that switch should be reloaded.

·         If there is VLAN allowed on trunk which exist in PIXM table but do not exist in running-config vlan configuration, then that VLAN should be either excluded from port-channel or added to VLAN running-config. The switch should also be reloaded.

·         However, since VLAN does not exist in running-config and exist in certain switch tables, reload ascii should be considered.

CSCwd64423

Headline: Fill word IDLE not reported correctly in output of 'show hardware internal fc-mac all-ports'

[1] For specific fan speeds see the Overview section of the Hardware Installation Guide.

[2] This switch runs with +1 redundancy mode so that if one fan fails, the switch can sustain operation. But if a second fan fails, this switch is not designed to sustain operation. Hence before waiting for the major threshold temperature to be hit, the switch will power down due to entering the fan policy trigger command.
