21.3R3-S4-EVO - List of Fixed issues 

PR NumberSynopsisCategory: Border Gateway Protocol
1635390BGP routes might be left stale on the router
Product-Group=evo
On all Junos and Junos Evolved platforms, if the BGP peer goes down, and the very last route in the list is marked as a high priority, BGP might assume no more routes to delete, causing routes to be stale.
1695062Traffic blackholing is observed when removing the BGP routes take a long time to get removed from RIB
Product-Group=evo
On Junos platforms, if a BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) peer is going down and stays down and the system might take an extremely long time to complete removing the BGP routes. The issue observed when a BGP peer sends many routes, only a small amount of routes are selected as the active routes in the RIB (Routing Information Base), and if the BGP delete job gets only a small part of the CPU time as other work in the routing process utilize the CPU.

1703226The l2ld process will crash when an IFL is changed to trunk mode and a new VLAN is added
Product-Group=evo
On all Junos Evolved platforms, the Layer 2 address learning daemon (l2ald) process will crash when there is a scaled configuration to commit and a Logical Interface (IFL) mode is changed from access to the trunk and a new Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is added to the IFL in a single commit. This issue will impact new MAC learning until the l2ald process recovers.

1698347The BFD fails to come up when RE filter is configured with apply-path
Product-Group=evo
On Junos OS Evolved platforms, the Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) protocol will fail to come up. This happens when the Routing Engine (RE) filter is applied with the filter term having source-prefix-list derived from apply-path configured with - "interfaces <*> aggregated-ether-options bfd-liveness-detection neighbor". The issue occured in the commit handling after correcting the apply-path string.

1662954In EVPN-MPLS Mutihoming scenario DF election will get stuck in the Preference based state
Product-Group=evo
On all Junos and Junos Evolved platforms supporting preference-based DF (Designated Forwarder) election in EVPN-MPLS Multihoming scenario, the DF election will be stuck in the Preference based state if there will be a change in the df-election on the fly.

1717267Traffic loop is seen due to incorrect root bridge ID
Product-Group=evo
On all Junos and Junos Evolved platforms, in VSTP (Virtual Spanning-Tree Protocol) topology, whenever a new vlan is added in between previously configured vlan group followed by configuring the system-identifier, the bridge priority will change for existing vlans which might give incorrect system ID or bridge ID creating a traffic loop.

1716270mac-move-limit : MMAS flag not getting reset after interface recovers due to l2-learning restart
Product-Group=evo
MMAS Flag will not be displayed for interface after it recovers due to l2-learning process restart
PR NumberSynopsisCategory: OSPF routing protocol
1705975OSPF routes are not getting installed after the interface is flapped
Product-Group=evo
On all Junos and Junos Evolved platforms, the OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) routes are not getting installed when the interface is flapped multiple times. A deadlock is created when the OSPF routers wait for an LSA (Link State Advertisement) with a P2P (Point-to-Point) link to be advertised from its neighbouring router to add it to its router LSA and at the same time the neighbouring router also waits for an LSA with a P2P link to be advertised to add it to its router LSA. Both the OSPF routers advertise their router LSA without a P2P link and as a result, routes are not getting installed.
PR NumberSynopsisCategory: RPD infrastructure issues related to NSR, GRES, switchover, 
1701146The rpd crash will be observed when any commit is performed
Product-Group=evo
On all Junos and Evolved platforms with RSVP auto-mesh dynamic tunnel configuration, whenever a commit is done the rpd (Routing Process Daemon) crash will be seen. This happens due to null pointer access in the memory.

Product-Group=evo
On all Junos and Junos Evolved platforms with dual Routing Engines, during commit script synchronize, the backup Routing Engine mgd get process crashes once the memory leak reaches 65K. When this happens, commit configurations from the primary Routing Engine fail.
