1375070Few L2BSA subscribers might be stuck in init/terminating/terminated status after previous logout.On MX platforms with Access Node Control Protocol(ANCP) triggered dynamic L2 subscriber management (L2BSA Service) scenario, if scaled L2BSA subscribers (e.g. 20K) login and logout repeatedly, together with other stressful operations, e.g. Graceful Routing Engine Switchover(GRES), some daemon restart (e.g. bbe-smgd, authd, dfwd, cosd, etc.), or Flexible PIC Concentrator(FPC) reboot, few L2BSA subscribers might be stuck in init/terminating/terminated status due to this issue. These affected subscribers can't login again after previous logout.

1403480Smg-service could become unresponsive when doing some GRE-related CLI operations.On BNG (Broadband Network Gateway) or subscriber scenario, when doing GRE related CLI operations and config commit, smg-service could become unresponsive and the bbe-smgd core might happen. The effect detail depends on if there is a crash and what is happening during a crash. Generally it would not cause a crash, but if the resulting concurrent access occurs, it might lead to a crash, thus the bbe-smgd would restart and restore state. In the meantime the service might be affected but it would be temporary.
  Category: BBE multicast related issues
1374530The bbe-smgd might crash continuously in centralized IGMP scenario.In enhanced subscriber management scenario with centralized IGMP configuration, after the last subscriber of a multicast group leaves that group and in some rare cases the bbe-smgd could not delete the multicast group node from the tree, this insistent state of the node causes the bbe-smgd process to restart. However, when the bbe-smgd restarts in init phase, it would try to delete that multicast node again, this inconsistent state results in bbe-smgd restarting again, so the bbe-smgd could never come out of the init phase and it restarts continuously.
1384491Multiple bbe-smgd core files with reference to bbe_mcast_vbf_dist_policy_service_encoder( ).When commit, any changed policy was being pushed to PFE even if the policy is not used (installed in the PFE). This caused bbe-smgd process to restart unexpectedly at the bbe_mcast_vfb_dist_policy_service_encoder() routine.

1414333DHCP/DHCPv6 subscribers might fail to establish sessions on PowerPC based MX platformsOn MX5/10/40/80/104 platforms running with Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol version 4/version 6 (DHCPv4/v6) subscribers, if large-scale subcribers (e.g. around 3500 in total) try to establish sessions simultaneously from multiple access interfaces, the DHCPv4/v6 sessions might always fail to set up due to this issue. As a result, the session set up rate would be much lower than expected.

1380231The Routing Engines might crash with various core files due to the deadlock issue on the SDB STS.In the system that uses session database (SDB), the deadlock might happen when getting the lock on the SDB short term storage (STS) due to a rare timing issue. It is more likely to happen on Enhanced Subscriber Management environment with large-scale subscribers (such as 50k subscribers). The issue will cause the primary Routing Engine (RE) to crash with various core files and lose the management connectivity. And the subscriber service could be affected. The issue might happen on single RE system as well as dual RE system. In the dual RE system, the primary RE crash could trigger a RE switchover. But the issue could cause the incomplete state on the SDB in the new primary RE, which could cause the subscribers login failure. A restart of smg-service on the new primary RE will recover this login issue.

1391767Non-BGP protocol route with an AS PATH might cause inappropriate route selectionRpd's route selection mechanism has multiple user-configurable mechanisms by which route ordering may be changed. To assist with debugging issues with defects in the route selection code, a function would generate a low priority soft core that didn't crash rpd when route selection was incorrect. However, there have been circumstances wherein not-best was incorrectly being determined. One such situation that is addressed in this PR involves when routes are learned or redistributed from non-BGP protocols and had an AS_PATH attribute. Using BGP route selection rules, if a BGP route and a non-BGP route had a leading AS_PATH with the same AS, BGP MED selection rules for grouping were being applied. Such MED election should only be done using BGP-only routes. Such a situation can come from various BGP carried VPN protocols wherein routes from the VPN protocol generated IPv4 routes when redistributed from one routing instance to another. An example of this would be an EVPN route.
1395098The best and the second-best routes might have the same weight value if BGP PIC is enabledIn BGP PIC (Prefix Independent Convergence) scenario, next-hop of unequal BGP multipath routes might have the same weight (0x1), resulting in unexpected load balance for traffic.
1398685The rpd soft core files and inappropriate route selection might be seen when Layer 2 VPN is usedThe rpd provides a mechanism to validate that route selection has successfully been done. When errors in route selection are detected, a soft core is dropped: the rpd remains running, a single core file is dropped, it is rate limited to not do this frequently. When running L2VPN, BGP MED selection may be inappropriately run on the routes. As a result, a soft core is created, and features that rely on skipping such routes such as BGP add-paths, may advertise an alternate path that is inappropriate.
1398700The process rpd might crash in BGP setup with NSR enabled.The routing protocol daemon (rpd) may restart when BGP teardown a peer when the peer's "prefix-limit" is exceeded. This issue is applicable when the "non-stop-routing" feature is configured.

1395539The minor alarm of "Bottom Fan Tray Pred Fail" might be wrongly raised when the fan speed is at high speed on MX960On the MX960 a check of the "actual" fan speed is compared to the "set" fan speed. If the difference between the actual fan speed and the set fan speed is greater than 20% the system uses this to predict that the fan might be about to fail. When the fans are set to run in high speed mode, some deviation from the set fan speed is expected to occur with the fans and it is expected to sometimes see a deviation greater than 20%. Going forward this 20% tolerance check will be disabled while running in high speed mode.

1391011Interim accounting updates might not be sent for subscribers after Junos OS selective updateOn MX/MXVC platforms enabled with enhanced subscriber management, if Graceful Routing Engine Switchover (GRES) and Nonstop active Routing (NSR) are disabled, when the chassisd process is going to restart (which is resulted from Junos Selective Update), the system will make the transition of Routing Engine (RE) mastership from master to standby before the chassisd process restart. Due to this issue, the new standby RE didn't reboot as expected, which causes the pfed process being passive for 15 minutes. During the 15 minutes, all the interim accounting update will not sent for all the subscribers who login during this time range.

1405876FPC crash might be seen when adding or deleting a leg to an AE bundle or FPC restarts in subscriber scenarioIn subscriber scenario, when using AE bundle with active subscribers and the AE bundle is configured with a lot of interfaces within one interface-set, FPC might crash if adding a leg to an AE bundle or an existing leg is replayed (after FPC restarts). It is a timing issue. In detail, this issue happens in two scenarios. The first one is "a leg is added to an AE bundle". That can cause a FPC crash as the device may perform a long walk to install schedulers on all legs. The second one is 'a line card rebooting'. After FPC reboot, the bundle is updated locally on that line card as it is populated with all of the existing state. In this case a long walk would also be performed and FPC crash might be seen.

1425339The logical interfaces in EVPN routing instances might flap after committing configurations.When EVPN (Ethernet VPN) routing instance is created, there is an implicit bridge domain created for this EVPN.

1439257Targeted-distribution for static demux interface over aggregate Ethernet interface does not take correct LACP link status into consideration when choosing primary and backup links.The value of "lacp-port-mode" (or LACP mode on child-links of AE bundle) is always "0", irrespective of whether LACP is turned ON or OFF on AE bundle. Whereas the expectation is that as per the LACP mode (OFF/ACTIVE/PASSIVE) present on AE bundle, the same should be propagated to child-links. Since the lacp mode was not propagated to child links, Device Control Daemon (DCD) used to assign the links to subscribers only based on its physical status. But there were few links which were physically UP but lacp down, so traffic disrupted.

The reason is that during fragmentation the first fragment`s next-header doesn`t point to the L4 information and hence wrong calculation is done at L4 checksum. And due to this invalid checksum, the traffic would be dropped.

The reason is that severe route churn events result in multiple cycles of addition/deletion of routes/labels. And due to a software bug introduced in 17.2R1, the labels freed up in the process may not get reallocated when executing RE switchover. As a result, the RPD might crash while trying to allocate a label which has not been freed.

1361800The PPM mode for BFD session in EX4300 is centralized and not distributed by defaultPeriodic packet management (PPM) is responsible for processing a variety of time-sensitive periodic tasks so that other processes on the EX Series switch can more optimally direct their resources. It has two modes: distributed PPM and non-distributed (centralized) PPM. The distributed PPM should be enabled by default (such as, in 14.1 or prior to 14.1 version). But BFD session over IRB (integrated routing and bridging) runs in centralized mode instead of running distributed mode in some versions. It may not cause service impact since the BFD sessions will come UP fine. However, when the RE CPU is very busy or when configured intervals are less than 300 ms then BFD sessions running over IRB may flap since the sessions are not distributed. Also, during RE switchover cases these sessions may flap if the configured intervals are less than 2.5 secs.

1370174The rpd might crash after Routing Engine switchover is performed or the rpd is restarted if interface-based dynamic GRE tunnel is configured.With interface-based Dynamic GRE Tunnel configured, there might be 2 next-hops for a single dynamic GRE tunnel when a new route is resolved over the dynamic tunnel after RE switchover is performed or the rpd is restarted. Subsequent withdrawal of the routes over that tunnel or primary Routing Engine restarting will cause the rpd crash. This issue is introduced in PR 1202926 (which is fixed in 15.1F7 16.1R4 16.2R1-S6 16.2R1-S6-J1 16.2R2 17.1R2-S7 17.1R2-S8 17.1R3 17.2R1).

1341720The VRF static route might not be exported when route-distinguisher-id is used on RR in BGP Layer 3 VPN scenario.In Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Layer 3 Virtual Private Network (L3VPN) scenario, on the Route Reflector (RR) with Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) instance deployed, if Auto-RD (Automatic Route Distinguishers) feature is used, the VRF static route might not be exported to bgp.l3vpn.0 table correctly under race condition. Hence the static route could not be advertised to remote device.
1377279static route age is the same as last commit.Whenever ribgroup config changes for static routes (inet.0), all static routes are removed and then added to new ribgroup. But for unrelated config changes (e.g. adding a prefix to prefix-list policy) , also triggers this del+add, resulting in static routes' age same as last commit. This issue is not service impacting.

1386011IPSec VPN traffic might fail when passing through MS-MPC of MX Series routers with CGNAT enabled.While dynamic IP Security (IPSec) virtual private network (VPN) is re-keyed due to lifetime expiration, IPSec internet key exchange (IKE) phase 1 user datagram protocol (UDP) port 500 and phase 2 UDP port 4500 sessions would be translated into two different public internal protocol (IP) addresses while passing through carrier-grade network address translation (CGNAT), which causes IPSec VPN traffic to fail. This behavior does not cause an issue for Juniper MX devices with MS-MIC or SRX routers since the identify key is used to authenticate the sessions and it allows the private IP address to be translated to the different public IP addresses.

1374248The filter service might fail to get installed for the subscriber in a scaled BBE scenarioOn MX Series platform enabled with enhanced subscriber management, if the subscriber profile initiates a filter service for each subscriber, and there are large scale of broadband edge (BBE) subscribers (for example, 10000) logging in and out repeatedly, the filter service might fail to get installed for the subscriber due to this issue. In some rare condition, it might also lead to the Flexible PIC Concentrator (FPC) crash.
1402345The MPC might crash due to CPU overuse by dfw thread.When a large amount of packets hit the firewall filter term action 'syslog' and a thread hogs CPU for more than 4 minutes, the MPC might crash.
1402484Some error logs might be seen on FPC when reading is attempted from Uninitialized memory location.On all MX platforms that support enhanced subscriber management (Next Generation Subscriber Management) with L2TP subscriber scenario, when a packet arrives with size higher than LNS (L2TP network server) IFL (Logical interface) MTU and 'Do-not fragment' bit is set, because the micro kernel generates ICMP error messages and increment 'out-mtu-errors' in IFD (Pysical interface) stream counter, and then the OIF (Outgoing interface) index is wrongly programmed in LNS IFL output feature list. So some error logs would be seen when reading attempt from Uninitialized memory location. This only impacts the traffic from Core to LNS subscriber on PFE which needs to generate ICMP error message like MTU exceeded. It would not impact normal transit traffic.

1321575In Junos Fusion the AD LAG interface might flap during SD upgrade or downgradeDuring SD (Satellite Device) upgrade in Junos Fusion, there is a race condition that the LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) defaulted PDU received from the peer device connected in a LAG (Link Aggregation Group) is incorrectly sent to AD (Aggregation Device) with AE ECID (E-channel Identifier) instead of member ECID, which causes that LACP PDU to be received on another member in the LAG, resulting in the LAG interface flapping.
1383642In a Junos Fusion (MC-LAG based) deployment with dual Aggregation Devices (ADs) and dual-homed Satellite Devices (SDs) it may be possible for SDs to get into a state where LACP will not transmit to attached end/client devices.When a Satellite Device (SD) boots up (powered on) it receives the SD configuration file from the Aggregation Devices (ADs). If the SD is configured to be dual-homed to both ADs (connections from one SD to both AD1/AD2) it will receive a configuration file which instructs the SD to communicate to both ADs. If one of the ADs is offline at the time the SD receives the configuration file specifying AD Redundancy then the SD will not be able to properly transmit LACP PDUs until it communicates and synchronizes with both ADs as specified in the received configuration.
