4 Known Issues For any possible errata due to hardware issues, please refer to the switch support product page. 4.1 The following table describes MLNX-OS® known issues in this software release and possible workarounds. General Known Issues Table 4 - General Known Issues (Sheet 1 of 2) Index 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Category Description Possible Workaround Management Interfaces The CLI command ip default-gateway sets the gateway address to 0.0.0.0 and prevents the user from adding other gateways. Delete the entry by using the no ip default-gateway command. In-Band Management In-band management mode does not support IPv6. In-Band Management NTP In-band management ARPs are not taken into account in the "show ip are count" command. The command show ntp always lists the last configured NTP server even if it has been deleted. This output can be safely ignore. Software Management Only one image is allowed to be copied into the system (using the image fetch command). The user must remove old image files prior to fetching a new one. Software Management Upgrading to v3.2.0594 (or later) forces all ConnectX®-3 adapters that are connected to this switch to upgrade their firmware to adapter firmware v2.10.7204 (or later). For switch-to-switch connections, it is highly recommended that all SwitchX® switches be upgraded to MLNX-OS version v3.2.0594 (or later) to guarantee robust interoperability. Software Management In case of an upgrade, ACL sequence-number "0" is not valid any more. In case there are two ACL entries with sequence number of "0" and "1" (sequential entries), the ACL with sequence-number 0 is deleted. In other cases where there is an ACL entry with sequence-number "0", it is moved to be sequence-number 1 within the system upgrade procedure. In case you have an ACL entry with sequence number "0", recreate it with different sequence number, prior to the upgrade procedure. Software Management Upon upgrade if there are more than 4 ACLs, all of the ACL configuration is deleted. If there are 4 ACLs or less, rules with a sequence number larger than 495 are deleted.

Possible Workaround
1.
Management Interfaces
The CLI command
ip default-gateway
<interface>
sets the gateway address to 0.0.0.0
and prevents the user from adding other gateways.
Delete the entry by using
the
no ip default-gate-
way
command.
2.
In-Band Management
In-band management mode does not support IPv6.
3.
In-Band Management
In-band management ARPs are not taken into
account in the “show ip are count” command.
4.
NTP
The command
show ntp
always lists the last con-
figured NTP server even if it has been deleted.
This output can be safely ignore.
5.

Software Management
Upgrading to v3.2.0594 (or later) forces all Con-
nectX®-3 adapters that are connected to this
switch to upgrade their firmware to adapter firm-
ware v2.10.7204 (or later). For switch-to-switch
connections, it is highly recommended that all
SwitchX® switches be upgraded to MLNX-OS
version v3.2.0594 (or later) to guarantee robust
interoperability.
7.
Software Management
In case of an upgrade, ACL sequence-number “0”
is not valid any more. In case there are two ACL
entries with sequence number of “0” and “1”
(sequential entries), the ACL with sequence-num-
ber 0 is deleted. In other cases where there is an
ACL entry with sequence-number “0”, it is moved
to be sequence-number 1 within the system
upgrade procedure.
In case you have an ACL
entry with sequence
number “0”, recreate it
with different sequence
number, prior to the
upgrade procedure.

Software Management
Upon upgrade if there are more than 4 ACLs, all
of the ACL configuration is deleted. If there are 4
ACLs or less, rules with a sequence number larger
than 495 are deleted.
