[f-nsp] Netiron 5.8 feedbacks (was Netiron 5.7 feedbacks)

[James Braunegg]

Dear All

What firmware are people using with the MLXe X2 2 million route 20x 10gbit port line cards ?

5.8b seems to have a lot of CPU issues for very basic functions such as dealing with ARP !

Kindest Regards

Hello Steven,
Nasty indeed. Was it fixed by BTAC ? Were you able to test 05800b ?
Best regards.

Dear community,

Pinging about this. Any feedbacks to share ?

Best regards.

We have tried 05800aa and the worst bug we have experienced is a near-loss of forwarding for some directly-connected networks.  I say near loss because it appears at first to be 100% packet loss, but if you try for like 5 minutes, eventually some packets get through.  BGP neighbors would establish, but then quickly fail.

Defect observed on two chassis.  BTAC's recommendation is to reload one particular slot, but I haven't tried that to determine if it helps.  Problem happens apparently 100% of the time upon first bootup.  Am not satisified with a fix that involves manually reloading certain slots after every reboot.
