On all MX Series and PTX Series routers running Junos OS, when the periodic packet manager (ppman) process runs short of resource, LACP protocol data units (PDUs) would fail to send. This causes LACPD_TIMEOUT in the peer, which consequently causes LACP flap in member links and the BFD session on the aggregated Ethernet interface will go down. The peer can see the LACP timeout by using the command user@device>show lacp timeouts Aggregated interface: ae57 LACP Interfaces Current state Last timeout et-2/0/8 Collecting distributing xxxx-xx-xx 21:07:14 PST (06:06:11 ago). <======= et-7/0/6 Collecting distributing xx-xx-xx 19:37:57 PST (07:35:28 ago) During this issue, you can see the PPM resource starvation with these commands in the Packet Forwarding Engine shell: "clear ppm statistics" and "show ppm statistics detail". This issue might be seen if the following conditions are met: * On all Junos MX/PTX platforms * LACP enabled * BFD on aggregated Ethernet interface * ppman runs short of resources
Aggregated interfaces would flap causing protocols to flap, child interfaces of the AE bundle will not flap.
> request pfe execute command "show ppm statistics detail" target fpc<> ------> target fpc can be any FPC which has child interfaces of the AE.
