Open Issues in 5.10.1

Issue ID Description Affects Fixed
4163399
When you configure the SNMP server listening address to a VRF that has no interfaces, snmp.service fails.
To recover from the failure, set the SNMP server listening address back to the VRF that has interfaces. If you really want to move the SNMP server to the VRF with no interfaces, assign an interface to the VRF and move the SNMP server to the VRF.
5.10.0-5.10.1
4142857
The switch drops PTP packets received with extra ethernet padding and you see syslog [ptp4l.ERR] messages. 5.10.0-5.10.1
4135919
You might experience a memory leak in ospfd when processing next hops due to network changes. 5.9.1-5.10.1
4134451
When you set the SNMP server listening address to listen on all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in a VRF with the nv set service snmp-server listening-address all vrf and nv set service snmp-server listening-address all-v6 vrf commands,SNMP requests over IPv6 addresses do not work. 5.8.0-5.10.1
4129344
When you create an ACL rule that matches TCP state and more than seven TCP or UDP source or destination ports, the rule does not get framed properly and is rejected by the kernel.
To work around this issue, create another rule number when the number of ports you want to match is more than seven.
5.9.1-5.10.1
4128913
In an EVPN configuration, when you use NVUE to configure a new host bond and an multihoming ESI at the same time, the Split-Horizon preventive traffic class rule is not programmed in the egress direction. To work around this issue, configure the host bond and apply the configuration, then configure the EVPN multihoming ESI on the host bonds and apply the configuration in a separate step. 5.9.1-5.10.1
4122543
When you use the NVUE nv set bridge domain stp priority command to configure the STP priority on two bridges, the STP priority on the second bridge does not apply.
To work around this issue, configure an NVUE snippet for the second bridge and apply it to the switch; for example:
Create the vlan-aware_bridge_snippet.yaml file and add the following:
- set:
system:
config:
snippet:
ifupdown2_eni:
bridge2: |mstpctl-treeprio 8192

Save the file, run the nv config patch vlan-aware_bridge_snippet.yaml command, then the nv config apply command.
5.9.1-5.10.1
4119696
If you run nv set commands after you perform an upgrade but before a reboot, NVUE creates a revision based off the pre-upgrade version. After reboot, the revision contains pre-upgrade data that might cause it to fail during config apply. To work around this issue, detach the stale revision after upgrade with the nv config detach command. 5.10.0-5.10.1
4119621
When you set the SNMP server listening address to listen on all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in a VRF with the nv set service snmp-server listening-address all vrf and nv set service snmp-server listening-address all-v6 vrf commands, SNMP requests over IPv6 addresses do not work. 5.8.0-5.10.1
4102992
When you use the NVUE nv set bridge domain stp priority command to configure the STP priority on two bridges, the STP priority on the second bridge does not apply.
To work around this issue, configure an NVUE snippet for the second bridge and apply it to the switch; for example:
Create the vlan-aware_bridge_snippet.yaml file and add the following:
- set:
system:
config:
snippet:
ifupdown2_eni:
bridge2: |mstpctl-treeprio 8192

Save the file, run the nv config patch vlan-aware_bridge_snippet.yaml command, then the nv config apply command.
5.9.1-5.10.1
4101808
When the SNMP service is busy for approximately more than a minute, the applications using net-snmp APIs to support their MIBs (such as FRR) become blocked. 5.9.0-5.10.1
4101027
After you add a VLAN to a bridge member port, you might experience a few seconds of VXLAN traffic loss. 5.7.0-5.10.1
4100170
The NVUE Service fails to start after an upgrade from Cumulus Linux 5.9 to Cumulus Linux 5.10 because of a corrupted database. 5.10.0-5.10.1
4100164
Low power Intel SATA controllers experience issues when using the mobile low power chipset LPM policy. This can cause the SSD to become read only. 5.8.0-5.10.1
4096505
In an EVPN configuration, when you use NVUE to configure a new host bond and a multihoming ESI at the same time, the Split-Horizon preventive traffic class rule is not programmed in the egress direction. To work around this issue, configure the host bond and apply the configuration, then configure the EVPN multihoming ESI on the host bonds and apply the configuration in a separate step. 5.9.1-5.10.1
4086136
If a Cumulus Linux 5.9.1 switch has an nv set interface lldp application-tlv configuration with an empty value, when you upgrade to Cumulus Linux 5.10, NVUE cannot apply the configuration and shows an Invalid config message. 5.10.0-5.10.1
4081784
If you configure an inbound route policy that drops prefixes, running the vtysh show bgp vrf neighbours received-routes command might crash the BGP service.
Avoid running the vtysh show bgp vrf neighbours received-routes command if you configure a drop inbound route policy.
5.9.1-5.10.1
4072165
When you add a VLAN to a bridge member port, VXLAN traffic might be impacted for few seconds. 5.7.0-5.10.1
4066219
Some STP interfaces might remain in a blocking state when there are large numbers of dis-contiguous VLANs enabled on a port. 5.8.0-5.10.1
4063273
Low power Intel SATA controllers experience issues when using the mobile low power chipset LPM policy. This can cause the SSD to become read only. 5.8.0-5.10.1
4061534
When you remove a secondary OTLP collector, there is a telemetry spike and existing connections with OTLP exporters reset. When new connections with the OTLP collector re-establish, the server experiences a high CPU and memory leak, which can bring down the telemetry collection service. 5.10.0-5.10.1
4050835
The NVUE Service fails to start after an upgrade from Cumulus Linux 5.9 to Cumulus Linux 5.10 because of a corrupted database. 5.10.0-5.10.1
4050801
When configuring telemetry for interface statistics with ranges or lists, the lists and ranges do not expand correctly in the configuration and the configuration is rejected. Configuration example:
cumulus@leaf01:~$ nv set system telemetry interface-stats ingress-buffer priority-group 1-6
cumulus@leaf01:~$ nv set system telemetry interface-stats egress-buffer traffic-class 0,3,6

You see the following log errors:
interface_stats: [ERROR] interface_stats_collector.py:_parse_conf_file:201 — Configured ingress-priority-group 0-6 is not an integer
interface_stats: [ERROR] interface_stats_collector.py:_parse_conf_file:201 — Configured egress-traffic-class 0,3,6 is not an integer
5.10.0-5.10.1
4047798
Packet distribution based on ECMP hash is not working for VXLAN. To balance traffic between egress ports, you can use lag or ECMP hash. For consistency, lag hash is for all layer 2 flows including VXLAN. ECMP hash is for layer 3 flows only. 5.10.0-5.10.1
4037315
NVUE fails to enforce the password length limitation of 512 characters or fewer. 5.10.0-5.10.1
4023318
If you run nv set commands after you perform an upgrade but before a reboot, NVUE creates a revision based off the pre-upgrade version. After reboot, the revision contains pre-upgrade data that might cause it to fail during config apply. To work around this issue, detach the stale revision after upgrade with the nv config detach command. 5.10.0-5.10.1
4022906
If you use NVUE to configure a bond, apply a port mirror on the bond, then run the nv config apply command, the validation fails.
To work around this issue, configure the bond with a separate nv config apply command before you configure the port mirror on the bond.
5.10.0-5.10.1
4005422
When you upgrade Cumulus Linux 5.9.1 to Cumulus Linux 5.9.2 or later with package upgrade, the NTP service stops. To restart the NTP service, enable, then restart the service in the VRF in which it was running with the systemctl enable ntpsec@ and systemctl restart ntpsec@ commands. 5.10.0-5.10.1
4004898
When you configure the SNMP server listening address to a VRF that has no interfaces, snmp.service fails.
To recover from the failure, set the SNMP server listening address back to the VRF that has interfaces. If you really want to move the SNMP server to the VRF with no interfaces, assign an interface to the VRF and move the SNMP server to the VRF.
5.10.0-5.10.1
3990135
If there are multiple relay switches in the path reaching the DHCP server, DHCP packets are duplicated at each transit relay switch and the server receives duplicate packets. 5.9.1-5.10.1
3928905
The nv show interface commands show RX and TX Power values from the wrong lanes on breakout ports. 5.8.0-5.9.1, 5.10.0-5.10.1 5.9.2
3879717
Running snmpwalk on the switch with the management IP address does not work. To work around this issue, use the localhost option (snmpwalk -v 2c -c public28 localhost 1.3.6.1.2.1.14) or create a control plane ACL whitelist rule. 5.10.0-5.10.1
3878699
In an EVPN multihoming configuration, when the VXLAN device associated with a layer 2 VNI flaps, there is a route entry in the tenant VRF associated with the locally learned host. 5.9.0-5.10.1
3878394
When ZTP runs a script that contains wget, ZTP fails and you see a message similar to the following:
ZTP: ZTP DHCP: Unexpected error: ‘ascii’ codec can’t decode byte 0xe2 in position 181: ordinal not in range(128)ZTP: Script returned failure 

To work around this issue, use the -q option with wget.
5.9.0-5.10.1
3861745
On UEFI hardware (where the /sys/firmware/efi directory exists), using the update-grub program might generate a /boot/grub/grub.cfg that is incorrect for booting ONIE if the ONIE option is selected on the console while booting. To work around this issue, run mount LABEL=“EFI System” /boot/efi before using update-grub. 5.9.0-5.10.1
3844670
When you configure TACACS with NVUE or merge in an NVUE configuration file including TACACS configuration with the nv config patch command, you see an unrecoverable error when running additional NVUE commands. To work around this issue, restart the NVUE service with the systemctl restart nvued.service command. 5.9.0-5.10.1
3835635
When adaptive routing is enabled, traffic for non adaptive routing enabled ports and non adaptive routing ECMPs might be routed over all ports in ECMP. Avoid using regular ECMPs with adaptive routing enabled on the switch. 5.9.0-5.10.1
3773177
When you try to upgrade a switch from Cumulus Linux 5.5 or earlier to 5.8.0 or later with package upgrade, you see errors for expired GPG keys that prevent you from upgrading. To work around this issue, install the new keys with the following commands, then upgrade the switch.
cumulus@switch:~$ wget https://download.nvidia.com/cumulus/apt.cumulusnetworks.com/repo/pool/cumulus/c/cumulus-archive-keyring/cumulus-archive-keyring_4-cl5.6.0u5_all.deb
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo apt install ./cumulus-archive-keyring_4-cl5.6.0u5_all.deb
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo apt update
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo apt upgrade
4.0.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.10.1
3771168
When you perform an ISSU upgrade on a Spectrum 1 switch, the switchd service might crash. 5.8.0-5.10.1
3677533
Due to resource constraints on the Spectrum 1 switch, staticd performance drops and takes longer to read static routes compared to the time BGP takes to complete a graceful restart and advertise routes and EOR to its helpers. As a result, static routes are advertised after the EOR is sent to graceful restart helpers, which delete the stale static routes and relearn them after receiving the EOR from the restarting node. Temporary traffic loss might occur. 5.7.0-5.10.1
3637444
Applying an inbound control plane ACL on the eth0 management interface does not take effect. To work around this issue, apply the ACL on the mgmt interface; for example, nv set interface mgmt acl inbound control-plane. 5.7.0-5.10.1
3587393
If you use the NVIDIA SN5600 (Spectrum-4) switch with Ixia test equipment, you might experience delayed link up due to intermittent link flaps.
To work around this issue when using copper cables:
  • Use Ixia IxOS version 9.37 with HF002156, or version 9.39 or later.
  • Use the DAC cable on ports 10 through 50.
  • Use NVIDIA cables with the recommended firmware revision.
  • Configure AN on the Cumulus Linux switch and AN/LT on Ixia.

To work around this issue when using fiber cables:
  • Configure 800g/Force.
  • Use the recommended NVIDIA optical adapters.
5.6.0-5.10.1
3556762
On rare occasions, SPT switchover might not happen cleanly in PIM resulting in some dropped packets. If you use PIM-SM to replicate EVPN BUM traffic, you might see a brief drop of multicast traffic before recovering due to normal PIM-SM traffic timeout. 5.5.0-5.10.1
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 so that one of the ports is selected as the slave. 5.6.0-5.10.1
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 an error message similar to Error: GET /nvue_v1/system/aaa/tacacs/authorization/1?rev=operational responded with 404 NOT FOUND. 5.5.0-5.10.1
3442569
When trying to access the NVUE API, user accounts authenticated with a newly-configured external service, such as TACACS, RADIUS, or LDAP, receive a 401 forbidden error. To work around this issue, after enabling a new authentication service, make sure to restart both nginx.service and nvued.service to begin authenticating users against the new authentication service. 5.5.0-5.10.1
3424967
sudo for TACACS+ users with privilege level 15 does not work when reaching the TACACS+ server through the default VRF. 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. 5.0.0-5.10.1
3420056
The ADVA 5401 SFP module with hardware revision 5.01 does not come up at layer 1 when you use 10G QSA adaptors. To work around this issue, use 25G QSA adaptors. 4.4.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.10.1
3362113
If you restore an NVUE startup.yaml file or run the nv config patch command after an upgrade that includes breakout ports with QoS configuration, the NVUE configuration fails to apply. Subsequent attempts to run nv config apply fail with a message similar to Invalid config [rev_id: 11] qos config is not supported on the following invalid interface: swp1s0. Supported on swp and bond interface types. 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. 5.4.0-5.10.1
3347538
When connecting NVIDIA-to-NVIDIA in PAM4, you must enable auto-negotiation. 5.4.0-5.10.1
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. 5.4.0-5.10.1
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. 5.4.0-5.10.1
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, 5.0.0-5.10.1
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. 5.4.0-5.10.1
3241567
When you apply switch configuration for the first time on a freshly booted switch and you run the nv config apply command after setting the hostname with nv set system hostname, you might see the error message Failed to start Hostname Service. To work around this issue, run the nv config apply command a second time. 5.3.0-5.10.1
3226506
The l1-show eth0 command does not show port information and is not supported in this release. 5.3.0-5.10.1
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. 5.2.0-5.10.1
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 FOUND
To work around this issue, reference the OID without the preceding period ( . ) in the command.
5.3.0-5.10.1
3145869
On a Spectrum-3 switch, the PTP offset in 10GbE changes between +-27. The average offset is around 7. 5.2.0-5.10.1
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
5.2.0-5.10.1
3122301
On the NVIDIA SN4700 switch, inserting and removing the PSU might cause loss of frames. 5.2.0-5.10.1
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. 5.1.0-5.10.1
3103821
On the NVIDIA SN4700 switch, inserting and removing the PSU might cause loss of frames. 5.2.0-5.10.1
3084476
After you disable traffic shaping in the /etc/cumulus/datapath/qos/qos_features.conf file, the default QOS traffic shaping configuration does not restore. To work around this issue, restart switchd. 4.4.3, 5.0.0-5.10.1 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, 5.0.0-5.10.1
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, 5.1.0-5.10.1
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. 5.1.0-5.10.1
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. 5.1.0-5.10.1
2972540
With RADIUS enabled for user shell authentication, there might be a delay in local user authentication for non cumulus user accounts. 5.0.0-5.10.1
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, 5.0.0-5.10.1 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, 5.0.0-5.10.1
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, 5.0.0-5.10.1
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.

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. 5.0.0-5.10.1
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. 5.0.0-5.10.1
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. 5.0.0-5.10.1
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, 5.0.0-5.10.1
2684925
The NVUE nv show vrf default router bgp peer command produces a 404 not found error. 4.4.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.10.1
2671652
In VXLAN routing environments, you might experience sub-optimal route convergence delays (longer 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, 5.5.0-5.10.1

When you perform an ISSU upgrade on a Spectrum 1 switch, the switchd service might crash. 5.8.0-5.10.1
3677533
Due to resource constraints on the Spectrum 1 switch, staticd performance drops and takes longer to read static routes compared to the time BGP takes to complete a graceful restart and advertise routes and EOR to its helpers. As a result, static routes are advertised after the EOR is sent to graceful restart helpers, which delete the stale static routes and relearn them after receiving the EOR from the restarting node. Temporary traffic loss might occur. 5.7.0-5.10.1
3637444
Applying an inbound control plane ACL on the eth0 management interface does not take effect. To work around this issue, apply the ACL on the mgmt interface; for example, nv set interface mgmt acl inbound control-plane. 5.7.0-5.10.1

On rare occasions, SPT switchover might not happen cleanly in PIM resulting in some dropped packets. If you use PIM-SM to replicate EVPN BUM traffic, you might see a brief drop of multicast traffic before recovering due to normal PIM-SM traffic timeout. 5.5.0-5.10.1
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 so that one of the ports is selected as the slave. 5.6.0-5.10.1
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 an error message similar to Error: GET /nvue_v1/system/aaa/tacacs/authorization/1?rev=operational responded with 404 NOT FOUND. 5.5.0-5.10.1

3424967
sudo for TACACS+ users with privilege level 15 does not work when reaching the TACACS+ server through the default VRF. 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. 5.0.0-5.10.1
3420056
The ADVA 5401 SFP module with hardware revision 5.01 does not come up at layer 1 when you use 10G QSA adaptors. To work around this issue, use 25G QSA adaptors. 4.4.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.10.1
3362113
If you restore an NVUE startup.yaml file or run the nv config patch command after an upgrade that includes breakout ports with QoS configuration, the NVUE configuration fails to apply. Subsequent attempts to run nv config apply fail with a message similar to Invalid config [rev_id: 11] qos config is not supported on the following invalid interface: swp1s0. Supported on swp and bond interface types. To work around this issue, run nv unset on the configured QoS settings, then apply the breakout port configuration before you configure QoS.

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. 5.4.0-5.10.1
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, 5.0.0-5.10.1
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. 5.4.0-5.10.1
3241567
When you apply switch configuration for the first time on a freshly booted switch and you run the nv config apply command after setting the hostname with nv set system hostname, you might see the error message Failed to start Hostname Service.

When you disable dynamic NAT manually in the /etc/cumulus/switchd.conf file instead of using NVUE commands but the dynamic NAT rules still exist in the /etc/cumulus/acl/policy,d/.rules file, the switch encounters a memory leak. To work around this issue, remove dynamic NAT rules in rules files in /etc/cumulus/acl/policy.d before you disable dynamic NAT in the /etc/cumulus/switchd.conf file. 5.9.1
4015327
If you change the hostname in the /etc/hostname file after the asic_monitor@vrf service starts, the hostname is not reflected in the Open Telemetry exported resource attribute. To work around this issue, restart the asic_monitor@vrf service.

A memory corruption kernel crash might occur due to a netfilter error. The log message from netfilter might contain a warning similar to the following:
kernel: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 0 at net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:1210 __nf_conntrack_confirm+0x5c7/0x6b0 [nf_conntrack]kernel: RIP: 0010:__nf_conntrack_confirm+0x5c7/0x6b0 [nf_conntrack]
5.9.1
4004453
The NVUE commands to delete SNMP users, and change authentication passwords and encryption passphrases are not successful. 4.3.0-5.9.1
3990258
Cumulus Linux incorrectly handles unnumbered neighbor types, which causes discrepancies in the running configuration and session flaps during FRR reload. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3985600
NTP initialization issues prevent the NTP service from starting on a non-default VRF. 5.9.0-5.9.2
3982222
When SPAN is enabled on a bridge member, an ARP or Gratuitous ARP received during a failover event between locally attached redundant devices such as load balancers might fail to update the bridge MAC table to point to the interface with the newly active load balancer. 5.4.0-5.9.1
3974890
The ntpsec@mgmt service does not come up by default when you install an image with ONIE because the trigger to bring up the service is missing. 5.9.1
3972715
The fans on the NVIDIA SN2410 switch (Part Number SSG7A80800) might spin at high speed. 5.9.1
3970626
When you configure the bridge.kernel_mac_refresh_interval parameter in the switchd.conf file, a switchd restart fails with a core dump. 5.8.0-5.9.1
3966673
In an EVPN multihoming deployment, if you enable multihoming without any local ESI configuration, arp-nd-redirect remains disabled unless you restart FRR. 5.9.1
3965021
The optical DOM information in ethtool -m command output is incorrect for SFP modules. 5.9.1
3957691
After a networking restart, ERSPAN mirror sessions might not start. To work around this issue, run the systemctl reload switchd command to start the ERSPAN mirror sessions. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3957620
On a Spectrum-4 switch, if you use PTP on a 800G link, jumbo frames traversing the same link might cause a degradation in PTP performance. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3956091
When you modify the default QoS configuration on top of the base RoCE configuration, NVUE reports an Invalid exception in the nv show qos roce command output even when the configuration is valid. 5.8.0-5.9.1
3955615
Cumulus Linux does not recognize QSFP_CMIS optical modules correctly. 5.6.0-5.9.1
3954026
Static ARP configured with NVUE commands is deleted when the relevant layer 3 interface flaps. 5.8.0-5.9.1
3951643
The NVUE unset and set command for the same object in a patch file (nv config patch .yaml) causes a python exception. 5.9.1
3950322
After switchd restarts, the sFlow sampling rate set in the hardware might not match with the configured values for about 3 minutes. This issue occurs because interfaces are not yet up during the initial sampling rate setting. 5.9.1
3949367
If you use NVUE to create an SNMP user with a password, then delete and recreate the user with additional encryption passwords (such as DES or AES), SNMP authorization fails for that user. 5.3.1-5.9.1
3947432
In an EVPN multihoming configuration, if a host bond enters the protodown state due to a link flap, when you try to clear the protodown state, FRR reprograms it. 5.9.1
3943834
The default memory configuration for NVIDIA Cumulus VX OVA is too low and needs to be increased. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3941608
The default NIC for the VMWare OVA file is set to vmxnet3 instead of e1000. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3939667
On NVIDIA Cumulus VX, the password does not reset to the default value of cumulus. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3935658
SNMP IF-MIB reports all interfaces (including layer 3 and VNIs) as ifType=6 (ethernetCsmacd) instead of IANA MIB-II types. 5.9.1
3929440
When you enable or disable MLAG configuration on an interface, Cumulus Linux logs LACP partner MAC address and BPDU guard mismatches incorrectly. This issue does not impact functionality. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3927016
Following an EVPN extended mobility event, where a host with IPA and MACA moves within the fabric and now resides at IPA MACB, you might see traffic destined to this host experience drops as the flow is being software forwarded on the egress VTEP. 5.9.1
3926523
When there are multiple interface flaps with sFlow on 100G interfaces, sFlow might use a different value than the one configured. 5.9.1
3925259
When you start Cumulus VX in Vagrant with libvirt, VM provisioning might fail with errors that indicate a missing ifup@eth0.service systemd service. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3917601
If a packet containing an all zero source MAC address (00:00:00:00:00:00) is learned on the ASIC, switchd sends the learn notification to the kernel but the kernel rejects the MAC address as invalid. The ASIC continuously sends the mac-learn notifications, which wastes CPU resources. To work around this issue, configure ACLs to match on the all-zero source MAC address and drop the invalid packets. 5.5.0-5.9.1
3917528
With LACP bypass enabled, Cumulus Linux does not program the MAC address in the bridge FDB for VLAN unaware tagged ports. With EVPN, the address is not advertised and the remote side might flood the packet instead of unicast. 5.8.0-5.9.1
3915842
A kernel crash due to memory corruption might occur due to a netfilter error. The log message from netfilter might contain a warning similar to the following:
kernel: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 0 at net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:1210 __nf_conntrack_confirm+0x5c7/0x6b0 [nf_conntrack]kernel: RIP: 0010:__nf_conntrack_confirm+0x5c7/0x6b0 [nf_conntrack]
5.9.0-5.9.1
3904516
With Optimized Multicast Flooding (OMF), when you unset multiple multicast router ports in a single commit, multicast traffic still floods one of the ports. To work around this issue, unset multicast router ports one by one instead of in a single commit. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3896967
PTP does not come up with IPv6 over a trunk port because the IPv6 VLAN tag is not sent. PTP over an IPv4 trunk works fine. 5.8.0-5.9.1
3895042
After an NMS station does a full SNMP walk on the switch, you see the following message every 5 minutes:
 snmp : command not allowed ; TTY=unknown ; PWD=/ ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/cumulus/bin/poectl -j -a 

This issue occurs because poectl is called on non-PoE switches. To work around this issue, remove or comment out the poetcl call from the /etc/snmpd.conf file, then restart the snmpd process with the sudo systemctl snmpd restart command

 #snmp ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/cumulus/bin/poectl -j -a 
4.4.0-5.9.1
3895017
When ARP suppression is off, remote EVPN VTEPs duplicate ARP packets from local hosts and each remote host receives two copies of the ARP packets. The issue also applies to IPv6 ND packets. 5.8.0-5.9.1
3890993
On the NVIDIA spectrum-4 switch, l1-show command output does not show Eye opening information for an interface port. 5.9.0-5.9.2
3881789
If you configure the anycast IP address with the nv set nve vxlan mlag shared-address command after you configure MLAG, the anycast IP address configuration is not applied and the VXLAN interface is in a protodown state. To work around this issue, run sudo ifreload -a.
To avoid this issue, either apply the anycast configuration before you apply the MLAG configuration or configure the anycast IP address and MLAG together with a single nv config apply command.
5.9.0-5.9.1
3879635
ERSPAN port-mirror sessions might not come up after a switchd service restart. To work around this issue and bring up the ERSPAN session, either run switchd reload after a switchd restart or use an ACL-based ERSPAN session. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3878166
The NVUE nv show interface eth0 and nv show vrf commands take more than two minutes to run if you have configured hundreds of interfaces because NVUE makes repetitive system calls to get vlan/link/tunnel bridge information. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3875589
MLAG bonds might report an incorrect DOWN reason of lacp partner mac mismatch when the bond is out of service for another reason. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3873219
When you remove a port from a bond and add it to the bridge in a single set of NVUE commands, then apply the configuration, the port forwarding state is blocked on all the bridge VLANs. To work around this issue, apply the configuration in two steps. First remove the port from the bond and apply the configuration, then add the port to the bridge and apply the configuration. 5.9.0-5.9.2
3859422
On rare occasions when certain events occur, such as changes to the topology in the network, when a bond comes online and directly transits to an STP blocking state, the slave ports might still be in a forwarding state. As a result, traffic is forwarded on a blocked port. 5.2.0-5.9.1
3854807
When you enable Optimized Multicast Flooding (OMF) and change VLAN configuration, a few ports might carry multicast traffic even when they are not in the MDB or they are not router ports. 5.6.0-5.9.1
3854800
The switch forwards multicast traffic to the CPU when PIM is enabled globally, regardless of the interface configuration. 5.6.0-5.9.1
3851499
On the Spectrum A1 switch, when you enable the ip-acl-heavy TCAM profile, VXLAN tunnel initialization might fail. 5.8.0-5.9.1
3821643
When using SSM and the upstream interface goes away (the source stops sending or the link goes down) the PIMREG interface is added to the outgoing interface list of the S,G and is never removed. As a result, multicast traffic that hits the impacted S,G is forwarded to the CPU and dropped by the switch. 5.9.0-5.9.1
3775686
The BGP Suppress Route Advertisement feature under scale (more than 30000 routes) advertises partial updates to downstream neighbors. Because FRR does not read kernel route updates fast enough, the netlink socket receive buffer gets full and further update notifications are dropped. 5.8.0-5.9.2
3763543
The NVIDIA SN4600C switch fails to boot fully after you upgrade from Cumulus Linux 4.2.1 to 5.7 with ONIE install. To work around this issue, perform an intermediate step image upgrade; for example, upgrade the switch from Cumulus Linux 4.2.1 to 5.2.1 to 5.7.0.
3711913
When you set an IPv4 ACL with a log action, logs do not appear under syslog after a match. This issue affects bridged packets when the rule is installed in iptables. To work around this issue, set the ACL with a MAC rule type so that it is installed in ebtables and the packets are logged correctly in syslog.
The following shows an example configuration:
cumulus@switch:~$ nv set acl one rule 1 action log log-prefix NVIDIA
cumulus@switch:~$ nv set acl one rule 1 match ip protocol udp
cumulus@switch:~$ nv set acl one rule 1 match ip source-ip 10.0.14.2
cumulus@switch:~$ nv set acl one rule 1 match ip udp source-port 34
cumulus@switch:~$ nv set acl one rule 1 match mac protocol ipv4
cumulus@switch:~$ nv set acl one type mac
5.7.0-5.9.2
3636266
When an unresolved next hop is present in a next hop group, especially over an SVI interface, the switch checks if the neighbor MAC address is in the forwarding table. If the neighbor’s MAC address is not there, the switch skips this next hop from backend programming and you see the switchd error ERR NH: l3 nhg v6 l3 nhg contains one or more unresolvable nexthops. There is no impact to switch functionality as unresolved neighbors are not programmed in hardware until they are resolved. 5.7.0-5.9.2
3610591
After configuring the system level pre-login and post-login banner messages, the messages do not return to their default settings when you run the nv unset system command or the nv config apply empty command. 5.7.0-5.9.2
3393966
When you configure OSPF network statements using NVUE with the nv set vrf router ospf area network command, subsequent configuration changes with NVUE might bring down all OSPF neighbors. To work around this issue, create an NVUE snippet to configure the network statement, or use the nv set interface router ospf area command to enable OSPF on interfaces instead of using a network statement. 5.5.0-5.9.2
2705056
When configured with NVUE, SVIs do not inherit the pinned MAC address of the bridge. 4.3.0
2543915
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 unit
You can safely ignore this warning.
4.0.0-5.9.2
