Cumulus Linux 5.6 Release Notes

5.6.0 Release Notes
Open Issues in 5.6.0
Issue ID | Description | Affects | Fixed |
---|---|---|---|
3609128 | When you use vi with root or sudo, visual mode is enabled by default due to a missing vimrc configuration file. This makes it difficult to copy and paste into vi and might introduce a security issue. | 5.5.0-5.6.0 | |
3600588 | You can’t reset the root password by booting into Cumulus Linux single-user recovery mode. To work around this issue, follow the steps in https://docs.nvidia.com/networking-ethernet-software/cumulus-linux-56/Monitoring-and-Troubleshooting/Single-User-Mode-Password-Recovery/. | 5.6.0 | |
3590053 | If you connect a 1G BaseT module to the service port on the NVIDIA SN5600 switch when its peer is down, the link shows as active on one side while its peer is disabled. | 5.6.0 | |
3585467 | NVUE and ip link show traditional bridge VLAN subinterface counts incorrectly. The ingress (Rx) count increments correctly but the egress (Tx) count does not increment. This issues occurs because the hardware does not support transmit counters for a VLAN subinterface; therefore, no statistics from the hardware are updated. Statistics for software forwarded packets show correctly. | 5.5.1-5.6.0 | |
3576961 | The NVUE command to clear all ACL counters at once is not available. To work around this issue, run the cl-acltool -Z all command to reset the statistics for all ACL rules. | 5.5.1-5.6.0 | |
3576949 | When you run the NVUE nv set service snmp listening-address localhost vrf or nv set service snmp listening-address localhost-v6 vrf command to configure the SNMP listening address, Cumulus Linux applies the listening address to the default VRF instead of the VRF you specify. | 5.3.0-5.6.0 | |
3573800 | After you apply a change to the router MAC address on an SVI with the ifreload -a command, the old router MAC address still remains in the FDB table. To work around this issue, remove the old router MAC address with the sudo bridge fdb del <old_mac> dev bridge vlan <vlan_id> command. | 5.3.1-5.6.0 | |
3567708 | In an EVPN multihoming environment with VRRP, when the master VRRP router fails, the standby router takes around 30 seconds to become active. | 5.3.1-5.6.0 | |
3566980 | When running DHCP relay for IPv6 and a downstream interface flaps more than once, relaying might stop working. To recover, restart the dhcrelay6 service, making sure the specified downstream interfaces are up and running. | 5.5.0-5.6.0 | |
3560622 | When you configure a route distinguisher (RD) or a route target (RT) manually for layer 2 VNIs, type-1 routes are not properly updated, type-1 EVI routes with the old RD are not properly withdrawn, and type-1 ES routes do not have the corresponding layer 2 VNI route target updated. | 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
3549798 | If you add a VRF, then SSH into that VRF, which is a generated service (for example, sshd@vrfname.service ), the service fails as the VRF is not created in time. To work around this issue, configure the VRF first, apply the configuration, then enable the SSH service on the VRF. | 5.6.0 | |
3538321 | In rare cases, an STP topology change on PTP over a VLAN can result in the switch losing the Slave state and one of the ports might remain in an Uncalibrated state. To work around this issue, toggle the port that is in the Uncalibrated state up and down to recover the PTP state so that one of the ports is selected as the Slave. | 5.6.0 | |
3534718 | The BGP command to suppress longer prefixes inside the aggregate address before sending updates (nv set vrf or vtysh router bgp ) does not suppress more specific routes from being exported into the EVPN routing table and advertised as EVPN type-5 routes. To work around this issue, announce EVPN type-5 routes by adding an additional outbound policy or export policy to filter out the more specific routes. | 5.5.0-5.6.0 | |
3533272 | If you set an OSPF network and define the subnet using a host address (such as 10.1.1.2/24) instead of the (starting) subnet network address (such as 10.1.1.0/24), you can’t unset the prefix with the nv unset vrf default router ospf area network command. Avoid defining the subnet using a host address when setting an OSPF network. | 5.6.0 | |
3517739 | When you connect the SN5600 switch to third party test equipment (such as IXIA) using copper cables, 100G, 200G, 400G, and 800G links do not come up. To work around this issue, use fiber optic cables when testing an SN5600 switch with IXIA for 100G, 200G, 400G, and 800G link speeds. | 5.6.0 | |
3463827 | In an EVPN configuration with PIM-SM for BUM handling, the host behind the DUT does not receive the expected number of BUM packets. Cumulus Linux 5.6 only supports Head-End Replication (HREP) for handling BUM traffic in an EVPN configuration. BUM handling using a PIM-SM Multicast tree is not supported. | 5.6.0 | |
3452732 | The nv set router policy ext-community-list command does not generate the standard based BGP community list. As a result, routes do not match the expected community list. To work around this issue, create a snippet to add the policy configuration to the /etc/frr/frr.conf file, then patch the configuration. For example:cumulus@switch:~$ sudo nano frr_policy.yaml- set: cumulus@switch:~$ nv config patch frr_policy.yaml | 5.5.0-5.6.0 | |
3452681 | When you run the NVUE nv show system aaa tacacs authorization commands to show per command authorization for a specific TACACS+ user privilege level, you see the following error:cumulus@switch:~$ nv show system aaa tacacs authorization 1Error: GET /nvue_v1/system/aaa/tacacs/authorization/1?rev=operational responded with 404 NOT FOUND | 5.5.0-5.6.0 | |
3445841 | FRR does not apply Type-0 ESI configuration for EVPN multihoming bonds consistently after an FRR service reload. This issue occurs because the system MAC address value (es-sys-mac ) is only compatible with a 3-byte Ethernet segment ID (es-id ) for Type-3 ESIs, but still renders even when the Ethernet segment ID is 10 bytes for Type-0 ESIs. To work around this issue, configure EVPN multihoming bonds with a Type-3 ESI (es-sys-mac plus a 3-byte es-id ). | 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
3433577 | When you use a single VXLAN device (SVD) with MLAG and static VXLAN tunnels, Cumulus Linux incorrectly associates the MAC addresses it learns from the VXLAN fabric to the bridge PVID. This issue can lead to a feedback loop between the clagd service and switchd , and might result in critical CPU usage with an out of memory condition. Do not use an SVD when enabling MLAG in a static VXLAN environment. | 5.5.0-5.6.0 | |
3428677 | In certain cases, Cumulus Linux does not process next hop updates because the zebra IP routing manager thinks the state of the next hops is unchanged. As a result, route installation fails and remains in a rejected state. | 5.3.0-5.6.0 | |
3424967 | sudo for TACACS+ users with privilege level 15 does not work when the TACACS+ server is to be reached through the default VRF (with vrf=default set in the /etc/tacplus_servers file). To work around this issue, specify the interface name that the default VRF uses in the vrf= setting of the /etc/tacplus_servers file or run the NVUE nv set system aaa tacacs vrf command. If you don’t run either command, a TACACS+ user with privilege level 15 can run vrf task exec default sudo … to execute the sudo command using the TACACS+ server on the default VRF. | 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
3405024 | You cannot remove PBR map configuration with source and destination rules. To work around this issue, delete the entire PBR map clause. | 5.5.0-5.6.0 | |
3395489 | On a switch running MLAG, when you configure QoS buffer settings, MLAG peering resets. | 5.4.0-5.6.0 | |
3368217 None | When daylight saving time changes, the MLAG initDelay timer resets and all MLAG bonds go down. | 4.4.4-4.4.5, 5.2.1-5.6.0 | |
3362113 | If you restore an NVUE startup.yaml file after upgrade that includes breakout ports with QoS configuration or you run the nv config patch command to update a configuration with a yaml file that includes breakout ports with QoS configuration, the NVUE configuration fails to apply and subsequent attempts to run nv config apply fail with the following message:cumulus@switch:~$ nv config applyInvalid config [rev_id: 11]To work around this issue, run nv unset on the configured QoS settings, then apply the breakout port configuration before you configure QoS. Alternatively, you can remove the QoS configuration from the yaml file and patch it separately after applying the breakout configuration. | 5.4.0-5.6.0 | |
3350027 | If you uninstall dynamic NAT rules and switchd restarts before all the dynamic NAT flows age out and are deleted, you might see dynamic flow deletion errors in switchd.log . These errors do not affect new dynamic NAT flows from new NAT rules. | 5.4.0-5.6.0 | |
3347677 | In an MLAG configuration, when a link failure occurs on the peerlink or the peerlink shuts down, the switch in the secondary role attracts traffic to its local VTEP as it advertises the local VTEP IP address momentarily just before the VXLAN device is protodown. This traffic is dropped for a brief moment (between 5 and 10 seconds) because the MLAG bonds on the secondary switch are already protodown. | 5.1.0-5.6.0 | |
3347538 | When connecting NVIDIA-to-NVIDIA in PAM4, you must enable auto-negotiation. | 5.4.0-5.6.0 | |
3345054 | The NVUE nv show interface command takes a significant time to show output or times out. To work around this issue, use specific QoS commands. For example, to show congestion control information, run the nv show interface command. | 5.4.0-5.6.0 | |
3341214 | If you use the NVUE REST API to configure a local user with a hashed password, the user cannot log in and the /etc/nvue.d/startup.yaml file shows the password as plain text. | 5.4.0-5.6.0 | |
3329518 | When using TACACS+, if the /etc/nsswitch.conf file specifies passwd: files tacplus (files is listed before tacplus), a user that is present in both the local /etc/passwd file and the TACACS+ server cannot log into the switch. NVIDIA recommends that when using TACACS+, you list tacplus before files in /etc/nsswitch.conf . When using NVUE, ensure that tacacs has priority over local . | 5.4.0-5.6.0 | |
3327477 | If you use su to change to a user specified through TACACS+, the user becomes the local tacacs0 thru tacacs15 user instead of the named user to run sudo commands. As a result, the named user password might not match the local tacacs0 thru tacacs15 user password. | 3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
3326659 | If you have a large number of MAC addresses, they do not age out at the MAC ageing timeout value configured on the switch. It might take up to 30 seconds more for the MAC addresses to age out and be deleted from the hardware. To work around this issue, wait for the ageing timeout value plus 30 seconds to allow for the MAC addresses to age out and be deleted from the hardware. | 5.4.0-5.6.0 | |
3308191 | If you try to set an unsupported interface speed together with FEC, the nv config apply command succeeds but Cumulus Linux ignores the FEC configuration and configures the default FEC setting for the chosen speed. There is no warning or error message. | 5.4.0-5.6.0 | |
3269691 | When you restart the LLDP service, you see a broken pipe error and a log message in the lldpd.service logs. This error does not affect LLDP functionality. | 5.4.0-5.6.0 | |
3258232 | If you use NVUE to configure multiple SNMP listener addresses at the same time, the SNMP service fails to start. To work around this issue, configure multiple SNMP listener addresses one at a time. | 5.3.0-5.6.0 | |
3241567 | When you apply switch configuration for the first time on a freshly booted switch, you might see the error message Failed to start Hostname Service when you run the nv config apply command after setting the hostname with nv set system hostname . To work around this issue, run the nv config apply command a second time. | 5.3.0-5.6.0 | |
3232091 | The NVUE nv unset interface command does not restore the port lane setting to the default value. To work around this issue, run the nv set interface command. | 5.4.0-5.6.0 | |
3226506 | The l1-show eth0 command does not show port information and is not supported in this release. | 5.3.0-5.6.0 | |
3221628 | Cumulus Linux 5.2.0 and 5.2.1 VX images might include an incorrect entry at the end of /etc/apt/sources.list , which produces warnings when you run apt update . Remove this entry to avoid these warnings. | 5.2.0-5.6.0 | |
3172504 | When you connect the NVIDIA SN4600C switch to a Spectrum 1 or Spectrum-3 switch with a 40GbE passive copper cable (Part Number: MC2210126-005) on edge ports 1-4 and 61-64, there is an Effective BER of 1E-12 in PHY. | 5.2.0-5.6.0 | |
3147782 | You cannot use NVUE to configure an SNMP view to include a subtree beginning with a period. For example:cumulus@switch:~$ nv set service snmp-server viewname cumulusOnly included .1.3.6.1.4.1.40310Error: GET /nvue_v1/service/snmp-server/viewname/cumulusOnly/included?pointers=%5B%22%2Fparameters%22%2C+%22%2Fpatch%2FrequestBody%2Fcontent%2Fapplication~1json%2Fschema%22%2C+%22%2Fpatch%2Fparameters%22%2C+%22%2Fpatch%2Fresponses%2F200%2Flinks%22%5D responded with 404 NOT FOUNDTo work around this issue, reference the OID without the preceding period ( . ) in the command. | 5.3.0-5.6.0 | |
3145869 | On a Spectrum-3 switch, the PTP offset in 10GbE changes between +-27. The average offset is around 7. | 5.2.0-5.6.0 | |
3135952 | PAM4 split cables (such as 2x100G, 4x100G, and 4x50G) do not work with a forced speed setting (when auto-negotiation is off) as the default speed enabled is for NRZ mode (such as 100G_4X). To work around this issue, set the appropriate lanes for forced speed (with auto-negotation off) with the ethtool -s swpX speed <port_speed> autoneg off lanes <no_of_lanes> command. For example:cumulus@switch:~$ sudo ethtool -s swp1 speed 100000 autoneg off lanes 2 | 5.2.0-5.6.0 | |
3122301 | On the NVIDIA SN4700 switch, inserting and removing the PSU might cause loss of frames. | 5.2.0-5.6.0 | |
3115242 | When you configure two VNIs in the same VLAN, ifupdown2 shows a vlan added to two or more VXLANS warning, which is only issued after the VNI is already added to the bridge. This leaves the new VNI in the PVID even if there is already an existing VNI configured in that PVID. | 5.1.0-5.6.0 | |
3103821 | On the NVIDIA SN4700 switch, inserting and removing the PSU might cause loss of frames. | 5.2.0-5.6.0 | |
3084476 | The default QOS traffic shaping configuration does not restore after you disable traffic shaping in the /etc/cumulus/datapath/qos/qos_features.conf file. To work around this issue, restart switchd . | 4.4.3, 5.0.0-5.6.0 | 4.4.4-4.4.5 |
3084027 | Under a high load, you might see ingress drop counters increase. The drops are classified as HwIfInDiscards in ethtool and shown as ingress_general in hardware. | 4.3.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
3071652 | On rare occasions, after you reboot or restart switchd on a Spectrum 1 switch, any 25G connections with Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cables that connect from the switch to a non-NVIDIA device might flap continuously. To work around this issue, bring the affected link administratively down for a few seconds on the non-NVIDIA device, then bring the link back up. | 4.4.4-4.4.5, 5.1.0-5.6.0 | |
3061656 | When the CPU load is high during a warm boot, bonds with a slow LACP rate fail to forward layer 2 traffic for up to 60 seconds (depending on the duration of the CPU load) and static bonds fail to forward layer 2 traffic for up to 5 seconds. | 5.1.0-5.6.0 | |
3053094 | When the CPU load is high during a warm boot, bonds with a slow LACP rate fail to forward layer 2 traffic for up to 60 seconds (depending on the duration of the CPU load) and static bonds fail to forward layer 2 traffic for up to 5 seconds. | 5.1.0-5.6.0 | |
2972540 | With RADIUS enabled for user shell authentication, there might be a delay in local user authentication for non cumulus user accounts. | 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
2964279 | When a VNI flaps, an incorrect list of layer 2 VNIs are associated with a layer 3 VNI. The NCLU net show evpn vni detail command output shows duplicate layer 2 VNIs under a layer 3 VNI. | 3.7.15, 4.4.2-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.6.0 | 3.7.16 |
2951110 | The net show time ntp servers command does not show any output with the management VRF. | 3.7.15-3.7.16, 4.1.1-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
2904450 | When you run the ethtool -m or the l1-show command, the 400G interface optical values do not show. | 4.4.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
2891255 | CVE-2021-39925: Buffer overflow in the Bluetooth SDP dissector in Wireshark 3.4.0 to 3.4.9 and 3.2.0 to 3.2.17 allows denial of service via packet injection or crafted capture file Vulnerable: <= 2.6.20-0+deb10u1Fixed: 2.6.20-0+deb10u2 | 4.0.0-4.4.1, 5.0.0-5.6.0 | 4.4.2-4.4.5 |
2890681 | CVE-2021-42771: relative path traversal in Babel, a set of tools for internationalising Python applications, could result in the execution of arbitrary code Vulnerable: 2.6.0+dfsg.1-1Fixed: 2.6.0+dfsg.1-1+deb10u1 | 4.0.0-4.4.1, 5.0.0-5.6.0 | 4.4.2-4.4.5 |
2867042 | When connecting the NVIDIA SN4600 switch to another NVIDIA Spectrum switch, you must use auto-negotiation mode (not force mode); otherwise the switch might use the wrong Tx configuration. | 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
2847919 | Configuring a router with the REST API through the switch front panel ports (swps) is supported in the default VRF only. To work around this issue, use the localHost IP address or the MGMT IP address to configure router using the Rest API. | 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
2847755 | When you use NCLU to remove the configuration for a peer that is a member of a group but also has other peer-specific configuration, you must remove the peer-specific configuration before you delete the peer in a separate NCLU commit. | 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
2823307 | Cumuls Linux does not support a bond with more than 64 ports. Any configuration with more than 64 ports in a bond changes all ports to down when you apply the configuration. | 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
2736108 | When you change the VRRP advertisement interval on the master, the master advertisement interval field in the show vrrp command output does not show the updated value. | 4.4.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
2705056 | SVIs do not inherit the pinned MAC address of the bridge. | 4.3.0, 5.0.0-5.6.0 | 4.3.1-4.4.5 |
2701000 | A default route learned from DHCP on eth0 in the management VRF might install in the default VRF if eth0 is disconnected and the original next hop is reachable in the default VRF. To work around this issue, delete the DHCP lease file for eth0 with the sudo rm /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.eth0.leases command. | 4.3.0, 5.0.0-5.6.0 | 4.3.1-4.4.5 |
2684925 | The NVUE nv show vrf default router bgp peer command produces a 404 not found error. | 4.4.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.6.0 | |
2671652 | In VXLAN routing environments, you might experience sub-optimal route convergence delays (greater than five seconds) when a prefix transitions to a new ECMP next-hop group. This condition might occur when a VTEP loses ECMP routes through all uplink peerings, then installs the routes through a different path, such as an MLAG peerlink. | 4.4.0-4.4.5, 5.5.0-5.6.0 | |
2543915 CM-26301 | When you enable a service in the management VRF, systemctl issues a warning similar to the following:Warning: The unit file, source configuration file or drop-ins of ntp@mgmt.service changed on disk. Run ‘systemctl daemon-reload’ to reload unitYou can safely ignore this warning. | 4.0.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.6.0 |
Fixed Issues in 5.6.0
Issue ID | Description | Affects |
---|---|---|
3572580 | You cannot set a VLAN match and a MAC protocol IPv4 match in a MAC type ACL rule. To apply ACLs with a VLAN match and layer 3 header matches ( IPV4/IPV6), you need to use type ipv4 or ipv6 ACLs with the VLAN match specified. | 5.5.1 |
3572566 | The NVUE nv action commands are missing from nv list-commands output. | 5.5.1 |
3562767 | ACLs do not process inbound DHCP packets and the packets do not contribute to ACL counters | 5.2.0-5.5.1 |
3549138 | In an EVPN environment with ARP suppression enabled, when a host sends a unicast ARP request to a remote host, the ARP reply is duplicated. It is replied once by the remote host and once by the VTEP. | 5.5.0-5.5.1 |
3541912 | Collecting a cl-support file in a high VNI and interface environment can result in an out-of-memory (OOM) event on the switch. An OOM event can cause critical services to restart and might impact traffic. | 5.1.0-5.5.1 |
3541518 | When you remove the update-source configuration for a BGP neighbor, the peering is reset if the neighbor is a member of a peer group with the same update-source configuration. | 5.5.0-5.5.1 |
3538497 | In an EVPN symmetric routing configuration, after rebooting a switch that uses VLAN 1 for a layer 3 VNI, traffic forwarding for VLAN 1 fails. To work around this issue, restart the FRR service with the sudo systemctl restart frr.service command. | 5.5.0-5.5.1 |
3528359 | A switchd assertion crash occurs after KVD resource exhaustion in the SDK because entries are in a pending delete state, which causes an ECMP allocation failure. | 5.5.0-5.5.1 |
3526004 | For layer 3 VNIs, Cumulus Linux automatically creates an SVI name that includes an underscore (for example, vlan4036_l3 ), which is not allowed in SVI names. As a result, commands such as nv show interface for the SVI show an error. The underscore (_) character is now allowed in SVI names. | 5.5.0-5.5.1 |
3520511 | If you apply EVPN multihoming configuration such as es-df-pref , es-id and es-sys-mac with vtysh after you remove a bond interface that is part of a bridge and run ifreload -a , FRR crashes. To work around this issue, do not remove a bond from a bridge before you configure EVPN multihoming with vtysh. | 5.5.1 |
3517376 | When you use CMIS specification based optics, the l1-show command output provides incorrect values for digital diagnostics (TX Power and RX Power). To work around this issue, run the mlxlink command with either the -m or –cable –ddm flags. | 5.5.0-5.5.1 |
3509445 | If a BGP numbered session is in a non-established state, SNMP walk commands to the system might time out when the BGPVRF MIB is included in the OIDs to collect. In addition, FRR might report warnings about AgentX in the log files. | 5.5.0-5.5.1 |
3498939 | In an EVPN environment, VM migration (IP and MAC address migration) might not work because the new local VTEP to which the VM migrates does not install the entry in the kenel. To work around this issue, restart the switchd service. | 5.4.0-5.5.1 |
3496931 | When you update a prefix list associated with an RP, the pimd service might crash if the prefix list exists without any prefixes. To work around this issue, ensure that any prefix list associated with an RP includes at least one prefix at all times. | 5.3.1-5.5.1 |
3496889 | When PTP is not enabled on the switch, NVUE nv show ptp commands freeze. This might cause other NVUE commands to fail and the NVUE service to restart. | 5.3.1-5.5.1 |
3495630 | The NVUE nv show service ptp command output shows an incorrect value. To work around this issue, run the nv show service ptp command or the Linux pmc utility. | 5.3.1-5.5.1 |
3491259 | When BGP receives an EVPN type-5 route with a gateway IP overlay attribute, the gateway IP overlay attribute in the attr memory (which is already inserted in the attribute hash) might change. As a result, the modified attr memory might match with another attr in the attribute hash, which produces duplicate entries in the hash table. As a result, BGP might crash when deleting one of the duplicate attr structures. | 5.0.0-5.5.1 |
3488136 | When zebra receives route updates that include both a route with a recursive next hop and the route used to resolve that next hop, zebra might mark the route with the recursive next hop as inactive. To work around this issue, reprocess the route updates by running the appropriate clear command for the protocol in use. For example, for BGP, clear inbound routes from the relevant neighbor using the nv action clear vrf command. | 4.2.1-5.5.1 |
3486102 | SNMP and TACACS secrets are shown in cleartext. | 5.5.0-5.5.1 |
3482006 None | If FRR learns a layer 2 entry against a VNI and you reconfigure the VNI later as a layer 3 VNI, the original layer 2 entry does not clear and remains in the forwarding database. | 4.3.0-5.5.1 |
3479786 | The switchd service does not handle certain route and next hop updates, which causes a synchronization loop. For example, in a VRF route leaking configuration, where a next hop group spans across multiple VRFs, when one of the routes is withdrawn and the next hop is no longer used, switchd has problems synchronizing other next hops in the groupTo work around this issue, disable next hop groups in zebra with the vtysh zebra nexthop proto only command, and then reboot the switch. | 5.3.0-5.5.1 |
3474427 | On rare occasions, LLDP and other CPU originated IP packets that egress a port might get replicated in the data plane and forwarded out of another port as well. The peer node might discard the unicast packets on the wrong port because of the destination MAC address; however, there might be problems with multicast packets, such as LLDP, which uses a multicast MAC address as the destination MAC address. To work around this issue, reboot the switch. | |
3474391 | The SNMP MIB definition file /usr/share/snmp/mibs/Cumulus-BGPVRF-MIB.txt does not define the INDEX of the bgpPeerEntry correctly. This issue does not impact SNMP functionality for this MIB. | 4.3.1-5.5.1 |
3472865 | The json output for the vtysh -c ‘show bgp all json command is missing a string key in front of the list of routes under the l2vpnevpn address family. | 5.4.0-5.5.1 |
3471052 | On certain QSFP-DD and OSFP optical modules, the ethtool -m command, and the related NCLU and NVUE commands that display optical module information fail. | 5.4.0-5.5.1 |
3470941 None | On the NVIDIA SN4700 switch, reversing the upper four lanes on a port does not work and might cause link degradation. If you swap the upper and lower four lanes on a port, the firmware gets stuck. | 5.3.0-5.5.0 |
3467890 | BGP aggregate routers are not advertised after learning the same route from another protocol. To work around this issue, restart the FRR service or, if possible, don’t learn the route from another protocol (use route maps instead). | 5.3.0-5.5.1 |
3466703 | In rare cases when there is high load, the clagd service might experience a buffer overflow and MLAG bonds stay in a proto-down state on the secondary switch. You see a “NetlinkThread: Netlink overflow” log message and the MLAG state indicates VLAN conflicts between peers. To work around this issue, restart the clagd service with the sudo systemctl restart clagd command on the switch that reports the overflow log message. | 5.2.0-5.5.1 |
3459696 | If you run the NVUE nv show vrf command when the BGP instance is not enabled, you see an NVUE traceback error. | 5.4.0-5.5.1 |

3455078 | When you bring down or delete a bridge or all interfaces on the switch, you see the following error message in the /var/log/switchd.log file:ERR bridge destroy for vlanThe errors are temporary and have no impact on functionality or traffic. | 5.5.0-5.5.1 |
3452763 | When you use the NVUE API with TACACS+, users might see a 403 Forbidden message if no TACACS+ user has logged in some other way, such as with SSH. To work around this issue, log in any TACACS+ user through SSH before you use the NVUE API with TACACS+ users, or run the following commands:cumulus@switch:~$ sudo touch /run/tacacs_client_mapcumulus@switch:~$ sudo chown root:shadow /run/tacacs_client_mapcumulus@switch:~$ sudo chmod 0644 /run/tacacs_client_map | 5.5.0-5.5.1 |
3448984 | If you use NVUE to apply a configuration when the optional TACACS+ packages are not installed on the switch, you might see messages similar to the following in the /var/log/syslog file when auditd restarts (for example, when the switch reboots):audispd: Unable to stat /sbin/audisp-tacplus (No such file or directory) audispd: Skipping audisp-tacplus.conf plugin due to errorsThese messages do not affect the functionality of the switch. | 5.5.0-5.5.1 |
3447762 | If the NVUE startup.yaml configuration file is invalid, the nv config apply startup command times out without providing details on the error. | 5.4.0-5.5.1 |
3444668 | If the SDK becomes stuck and not able to process API calls, the systemd watchdog stops switchd and Cumulus Linux generates a cl-support file. switchd restarts after the watchdog timeout and then runs without issues | |
3436595 | When using WJH, if you export dropped packets to a file in PCAP format, the file contains custom WJH header data. As a result, certain tools, such as Wireshark, cannot decode the data. To work around this issue, use the –no_metadata option with the export command:cumulus@switch:~$ what-just-happened poll –export –no_metadata | 5.4.0-5.5.1 |
3436305 | Auto-negotiation and link-training is not supported at 25G between the NVIDIA SN5600 switch and non-NVIDIA devices. | |
3436296 | On the NVIDIA SN5600 switch, the 8x port breakout is not supported with the MCP4Y10-N00A cable | |
3436291 | The NVIDIA SN5600 switch does not support connecting to a Spectrum-2 or Spectrum-3 switch with an MCP7Y70-H001 4X breakout cable. | |
3436287 | The NVIDIA SN5600 switch does not support connecting to a Spectrum-1 switch using a 2x breakout with the MCP7Y60-H001 copper cable at 25G. | |
3436229 | On the NVIDIA SN5600 switch, when you connect a Service port to non-NVIDIA devices, auto-negotiation is not supported for 25G links. | |
3436215 | On the NVIDIA SN5600 switch, the thermal control service crashes when you remove a fan tray. | |
3433944 | The wjh_dissector.lua WJH packet decoder script provided with Cumulus Linux might fail to decode all WJH packets. | 5.4.0-5.5.1 |
3419940 | When generating a cl-support file either manually or when an issue occurs on the system, you see the following kernel error messages:‘Register access failed (reg_id=0x9029, status=0x4)’ followed by a hex dump of a few linesThis error message is benign and has no functional impact. | 5.5.0-5.5.1 |
3413785 | To reach the TACACS+ server through the default VRF, you must specify the egress interface you use in the default VRF. Either run the NVUE nv set system aaa tacacs vrf command (for example, nv set system aaa tacacs vrf swp51 ) or set the vrf= option in the /etc/tacplus_servers file (for example, vrf=swp51 ). A similar issue might prevent TACACS+ users with privilege level 15 from using sudo if the TACACS+ server is reachable only on the default VRF. If this occurs, and you do not run the above configuration workaround, the TACACS+ user with privilege level 15 can use vrf task exec default sudo … to execute the sudo command using the TACACS+ server on the default VRF. | 5.0.0-5.5.1 |
3394674 | If you restart FRR with the log file debugging level set to informational , BGP crashes. | 5.4.0-5.5.1 |
3378733 | After you add or delete a static MAC entry on the bridge FDB, a core dump occurs if the interface is VXLAN and the MAC address is 00:00:00:00:00:00. | 5.4.0-5.5.1 |
3344846 | The Spectrum-3 hardware configuration is not optimized for the best PTP accuracy when using 25GbE. You might see higher than expected PTP offsets on this platforms and interface speed. | 5.4.0-5.5.1 |
3336808 | If you run the NVUE nv set interface command without providing a description, the nv config apply command fails with the error Unable to restart services (ifreload-nvue.service) . | 5.4.0-5.5.1 |
3334275 | The sensors.conf files in Cumulus Linux are out of date. | 5.2.0-5.5.1 |
3187469 | At high scale with 160 VRFs and 10 VLANs per VRF (a total of 1600 VLANs), you see traffic loss during primary switch reboot. To work around this issue, reduce the scale to 40 VRFs with no more than 400 VLANs in the configuration, and use a common MAC address. | 5.1.0-5.5.1 |
3178090 | The cl-support generation script causes TC filter collection to run as a background process for each interface, which can lead to memory exhaustion on a high scale configuration and on a switch with a small memory footprint. | 5.1.0-5.5.1 |
3172682 | On rare occasions, when you query the system hostname through the hostnamctl application, you see a timeout. NVUE uses the hostnamctl application to determine the system hostname, which can result in an nv config apply command failure. | 5.2.0-5.5.1 |
3069069 | When you run the systemctl reload switchd command, there is momentary traffic loss after a port configured with lossless buffers goes down. This is only temporary and the traffic stabilizes after the initial drops. | 5.1.0-5.5.1 |
