After you add a VLAN to a bridge member port, you might experience a few seconds of VXLAN traffic loss. | 5.7.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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 | 5.11.0 |
| 4037015 |
The NVUE commands to delete SNMP users, and change authentication passwords and encryption passphrases are not successful. | 4.3.0-5.9.1 | 5.9.2-5.11.0, 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 4023649 |
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 | 5.9.2-5.11.0, 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 3982294 |
Cumulus Linux does not recognize QSFP_CMIS optical modules correctly. | 5.6.0-5.9.1 | 5.9.2-5.11.0, 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 3982249 |
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 | 5.9.2-5.11.0, 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 3982233 |
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 | 5.9.2-5.11.0, 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 3982231 |
The switch forwards multicast traffic to the CPU when PIM is enabled globally, regardless of the interface configuration. | 5.6.0-5.9.1 | 5.9.2-5.11.0, 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 3982226 |
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 | 5.9.2-5.11.0, 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 3980941 |
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 | 5.9.2-5.11.0, 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 3965573 |
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 | 5.9.2-5.11.0, 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 3863858 |
VRR interfaces might show dadfailed on their IPv6 link-local address. |
5.6.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3832116 |
When you configure a SPAN session either with the NVUE nv set system port-mirror session command or in the /etc/cumulus/switchd.d/port-mirror.conf file and the default route is configured to 0.0.0.0/0, the SPAN session might not work as expected. To work around this issue, remove the default route 0.0.0.0/0 and use alternate routes instead. |
5.7.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3824750 |
With the nvidia.nvue Ansible module, NVUE honors input from the Ansible module only; if you do not provide the full configuration, NVUE generates an exception. To work around this issue, always provide the full configuration. |
5.6.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3782996 |
If you have installed a large number ACLs, you might see a switchd memory leak over a period of time that stops the switchd process because it is out of memory . |
5.6.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3782543 |
When you configure the BGP setting bgp max-med on-startup with vtysh, the MED on some peers might not be set to 4294967294 as expected on startup. The max-med might also fail to reset after the startup timer expires. |
5.6.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 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 |
4.0.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3766994 |
Cumulus Linux 5.6 and 5.7 do not include FRR log rotation, which can result in a very large log file that affects disk usage. To work around this issue, run the following commands as the cumulus user on the Cumulus Linux 5.6 or 5.7 switch. The commands do not impact any other system function.cumulus@switch:~$ wget https://download.nvidia.com/cumulus/apt.cumulusnetworks.com/repo/pool/cumulus/f/frr-logrotate/frr-logrotate_8.4.3-0+cl5.7.0u1_amd64.deb |
5.6.0-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3765395 |
The nv unset nve vxlan flooding and nv set nve vxlan flooding enable off commands do not disable BUM flooding. To work around this issue, disable BUM flooding with vtysh commands:leaf01# configure terminal |
5.5.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3753050 |
On Spectrum 1 switches, switchd might crash due to an SDK health event or error. |
5.6.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3752266 |
If you configure DHCP Server HA, the switch failover might cause the DHCP service to report a time mismatch too great error. |
5.7.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3751952 |
ifupdown2 tries to set the multicast database hash elasticity (bridge-hashel attribute) with a value of 4096. However, this attribute is now deprecated in the Linux kernel and the value is always 16. |
5.5.1-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3744830 |
When configured with NVUE, the Radius secret key can be a maximum of 19 characters long. | 5.7.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3739008 |
The Lenovo MSN4600-VS2RC (PN SSG7B27990 Back-to-Front/C2P Airflow) might run the fan tray fans at a high speed because the software believes the PSU fans are running in the wrong direction. | 5.5.1-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3738626 |
If you configure a VNI before an SVI, you can’t add or remove the VRR address from the SVI. To work around this issue, configure the SVI before the VNI. | 5.6.0-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3730904 |
When sending untagged frames to the CPU with an MTU higher than the SVD (single VXLAN device) MTU, the kernel might crash. | 5.4.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3718614 |
When a corrupt or invalid ZTP script exists on the ZTP file server, the ZTP service on the switch might crash and report Too many open files after approximately 1000 download attempts. To recover and restart ZTP, reboot the switch. Always provide a valid ZTP script when using ZTP download. |
5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3713420 |
When you run the systemctl restart switchd.service command or reboot the switch after you set the host route preference option with the NVUE nv set system forwarding host-route-preference command or manually in the /etc/cumulus/switchd.conf file, switchd crashes and creates core files. |
5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3713419 |
When monitoring system statistics and network traffic with sFlow, an aggressive link flap might produce a memory leak in the sFlow service hsflowd. |
5.1.0-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3712007 |
In RSTP mode when there is a bridge port flap, Cumulus Linux flushes, then re-adds dynamic MAC addresses on the peer link, which might cause short traffic disruption. | 5.6.0-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 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 |
5.7.0-5.9.2 | 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 3710396 |
In an eBGP multihop configuration with dynamic neighbors, Cumulus Linux does not update the configured TTL but uses the MAXTTL instead. This issue is only observed with dynamic peers. | 5.6.0-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3702431 |
Traditional SNMP snippets do not take effect unless you first enable SNMP with the NVUE nv set service snmp-server enable on and nv set service snmp-server listening-address commands. Alternatively, you can use the equivalent REST API methods. |
5.4.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3698680 |
If you run the ifreload -a command when ACLs exist but nonatomic update mode is set in the switchd.conf file, traffic pauses on unaffected interfaces. |
5.6.0-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3695491 |
When you log into a Cumulus Linux switch after a fresh install through the serial console, the management VRF might not be available. (This is not an issue with ssh.) To work around this issue, log out, then log back into the console a few seconds later, after the switch finishes booting. | 5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3686389 |
When you use NVUE commands to configure an untagged VLAN (PVID) on a bridge to a non-default value, nv show bridge commands still indicate that the untagged VLAN is 1 (the default value). The untagged VLAN you configured is properly set on bridge ports, but displays incorrectly in operational NVUE show commands. |
5.6.0-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3679478 |
During switch boot, you see the following messages in the syslog:2024-03-04T10:34:49.650950+00:00 cumulus sx_sdk: 2262 [TELE] [ERROR ]: Tele impl module is already initialized2024-03-04T10:34:49.651041+00:00 cumulus sx_sdk: 2262 [TELE] [ERROR ]: sdk_tele_init failed, for chip type CHIP_TYPE_SWITCH_SPECTRUM3, err = Already initialized This is due to both the ASIC Monitoring service and the What Just Happened (WJH) service trying to initialize the SDK TELE module. You can ignore the messages because the TELE service has already initialized properly. |
5.7.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 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. |
5.7.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3672706 |
When you enable port security, you can configure a maximum of 450 port security static MAC addresses for an interface. | 5.7.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3671288 |
Routes and/or next-hops will no-longer be installed in kernel, and traffic related to these routes and/or next-hops will not be forwarded correctly. Flapping of EVPN prefixes from BGP updates and withdraws sometimes causes a race condition where the routes are never re-installed. An example of a trigger that can lead to this problem is a flapping peerlink. A reboot of each switch with missing routes will recover from this issue. | 5.6.0-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3655681 |
When you disable, then enable STP auto-edge on a port, the port might not transition to the operational edge even though the port does not receive bpdus. To work around this issue, configure the port as an admin-edge port. | 5.7.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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 . |
5.7.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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 | 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 3632843 |
When the switch receives a type-5 route in BGP and there is a network statement for the same prefix, BGP sometimes removes the request to track next hops from FRR. As next hop reachability changes, BGP no longer reacts to the change. To work around this issue, run the clear bgp * command for all peerings. |
5.6.0-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3630492 |
On the NVIDIA SN2201 switch, the ledmgrd -d command output shows the system and PSU LED status as orange when the physical LED is green. |
5.5.1-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3614286 |
To avoid unnecessary traffic loss, ifreload (ifupdown2) only flaps a bond to reset its MAC address when the bond MAC address is not present on any of the bond’s interfaces. Previously, ifupdown2 enforced the bond MAC address to be set to the MAC address of the first interface. |
5.6.0-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 3610967 |
In an EVPN symmetric routing configuration, running the NVUE nv set vrf command to derive layer 3 VNIs automatically might result in duplicate VLAN entries in the system. This most often occurs at scale when many VRFs have similar names. To work around this issue, manually specify a unique VLAN for each VRF. |
5.3.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 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 | 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 3591918 |
The nv action disconnect system aaa user command does not clear all the open sessions. To work around this issue, run the command as many times as the number of sessions to clear all the sessions. |
5.6.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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:
To work around this issue when using fiber cables:
|
5.6.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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. | 5.5.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3546857 |
The nv show bridge vlan command does not show tagged and untagged VLAN information for the bridge |
5.6.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3541653 |
During warm boot with layer 3 traffic, you might experience packet loss for approximately 15 milliseconds. | 5.6.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3540510 |
400Gx8 ports only support traffic line rate with packets that are larger than 172 bytes. | 5.6.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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 so that one of the ports is selected as the slave. | 5.6.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3497622 |
When you remove PSUs, then plug them back in, you might experience traffic loss and some ports might be in a down state. | 5.6.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3484058 |
When you power on the NVIDIA SN3420 switch with no connected cables, the QSFP ports LEDs light in amber. | 5.3.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3472163 |
On a switch with the Spectrum-4 ASIC, packets that are smaller than 256 bytes are not included in multicast flows. Multicast flows support packets that are 256 bytes or larger. | 5.6.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3470940 |
On a switch with the Spectrum-4 ASIC, packets that are smaller than 256 bytes are not included in multicast flows. Multicast flows support packets that are 256 bytes or larger. | 5.6.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3463827 |
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. | 5.6.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 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 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 | 5.11.0 |
| 3444490 |
Migration from ONYX to Cumulus Linux is supported and tested with ONYX version 3.10.4302 GA only. | 5.6.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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. |
5.5.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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. |
5.5.0-5.8.0 | 5.9.0-5.11.0 |
| 3430430 |
When you configure PTP on 50G ports, the offset correction might be higher, which can affect the time synchronization of the node. To work around this issue, configure PTP on 100G ports, or on 10G or 1G ports with PTP shaper enabled. | 5.5.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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. |
5.0.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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, 5.0.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3393966 |
When you configure OSPF network statements using NVUE with the nv set vrf 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 command to enable OSPF on interfaces instead of using a network statement. |
5.5.0-5.9.2 | 5.10.0-5.11.0 |
| 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. |
5.4.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3347538 |
When connecting NVIDIA-to-NVIDIA in PAM4, you must enable auto-negotiation. | 5.4.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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. |
5.4.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3334275 |
When you run the sensors command, the output shows an erroneous fault on some front panel ports. |
5.2.0-5.7.0 | 5.8.0-5.11.0 |
| 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. |
5.4.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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, 5.0.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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. | 5.4.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3253218 |
Auto-negotiation isn’t supported on Spectrum-2 and Spectrum-3 switches using the 1G SFP-T module; FORCE 1G is configured instead. | 5.4.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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. |
5.3.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3226506 |
The l1-show eth0 command does not show port information and is not supported in this release. |
5.3.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3225117 |
Occasionally, packet losses might occur on 25G ports when link is raised without FEC. | 5.4.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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. | 5.2.0-5.11.0 | |
| 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. |
5.3.0-5.11.0 | |
| 3145869 |

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 |

Cumulus Linux assigns an IPv4 and IPv6 loopback address to a VRF interface by default. As a result, ping and route lookups for unique remote IP addresses on different VTEPs might not work if there is no source IP on the switch that belongs to the same subnet. To work around this issue, remove the loopback address on the VRF with the nv unset vrf ping command to use a source address (such as an SVI address) with the ip vrf exec command. |

Cumulus Linux assigns an IPv4 and IPv6 loopback address to a VRF interface by default. As a result, ping and route lookups for unique remote IP addresses on different VTEPs might not work if there is no source IP on the switch that belongs to the same subnet. To work around this issue, remove the loopback address on the VRF with the nv unset vrf command. Only remove the loopback address if you are not running NTP as NTP requires a loopback address to work. Alternatively, you can change the ping command to use a source address (such as an SVI address) with the ip vrf exec command. |

Under rare conditions, running NVUE commands that capture output larger than 4k bytes from Linux tools or utilities might result in failures with 500 INTERNAL SERVER ERROR or Unrecoverable internal error messages. This issue occurs when there are non-ascii characters in large outputs that Cumulus Linux can’t decode. This failure is observed only in Cumulus Linux 5.6 and earlier. | 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. |

CVE-2023-38408: The PKCS#11 feature in ssh-agent in OpenSSH before 9.3p2 has an insufficiently trustworthy search path, leading to remote code execution if an agent is forwarded to an attacker-controlled system. (Code in /usr/lib is not necessarily safe for loading into ssh-agent.) NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2016-10009 Mitigation: Do not use ssh-agent forwarding (the man page for ssh_config says that “agent forwarding should be enabled with caution”), or start the ssh-agent program with the -P option to allow only specific PKCS#11 libraries (or none with -P ‘') For Cumulus Linux 4.3.2, the /usr/bin/ssh-agent program has all permissions turned off (chmod 0) to prevent its execution if a vulnerable version is detected. |

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 |
| 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). |

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 |
| 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 |
