Product-Group=junos 		Memory leak is seen in 'dot1xd' daemon when no 'dot1x' is configured. Memory leak is seen for the allocation while creating socket from 'dot1xd' daemon to 'authd' daemon. If 'authd' is not running , 'dot1xd' daemon tries to connect to 'authd' periodically and every time it was allocating memory for string "/var/run/authd_control" for socket creation. The memory does not free in this scenario and we see memory leak for string "/var/run/authd_control". There will be no service impact to other services/daemons other than dot1x.
