Description

Auto-channelization is showing inconsistent behaviour on QFX platforms when there is fault on the channels.

Symptoms

On all QFX platforms with auto-channelization enabled on an interface, if a fault occurs on any channels of the breakout channels, the interface switches back to a non-channelized (40G) state, which leads to the link going down.


The below commands can be used to find out indications of faults, errors, or changes in operational status:

show configuration interfaces <interface-name>

show interfaces extensive <interface-name>

show log messages
