Important Notes
In certain countries, use of these products may be prohibited and subject to laws, regulations, or licenses, including requirements applicable to the use of the products under telecommunications and other laws and regulations; customers must comply with all such applicable laws in the countries in which they intend to use the products.
When migrating from Cisco IOS to Cisco IOS XR software on a Cisco XR 12000 Series Router, follow the migration instructions provided to minimize traffic impact. For detailed procedures, see the document Upgrading from Cisco IOS to Cisco IOS XR Software on the Cisco 12000 Series Router.
Follow the instructions provided by Cisco for all card removal and replacement (fabric cards, line cards, fan controller and RP, and so on) to avoid impact to traffic. For more information, see the Cisco IOS XR Getting Started Guide.
If you intend to test beyond the combined maximum configuration tested and published by Cisco, contact your Cisco representative to discuss how to engineer a large-scale configuration maximum for your testing.
Cisco SIP-600 line cards (for the Cisco XR 12000 Series Router) draw more power than previous line cards. Depending on the exact configuration of power entry modules (PEMs) and other cards in the chassis, there may not be enough power available when inserting a new card or removing a PEM.
Before you insert a new card or remove a PEM, run the following command in admin mode:
RP/0/0/CPU0:router# adminRP/0/0/CPU0:router# show environment power-supply table48V CurrentR/S/I Module (V) (A)0/24/* PEM1 54 4PEM2 53 40/25/* PEM1 54 4PEM2 53 4Total Power Supplies: 3200WRedundant Power Supplies: 1600WWorst Case Power Used: 621WCurrent Power Used: 428WCurrent Redundant Power Available: 1172WCurrent Total Power Available: 2772WWorst Case Redundant Power Available: 979WWorst Case Total Power Available: 2579WPID Description Watts--- ----------- -----GRP-B Route Processor 38PRP-1 Cisco 12000 Series Performance Route Processor 60LC-4OC-3-POS-SM 4 Port Packet Over SONET OC-3c/STM-1 804OC3X/POS-MM-MJ-B 4 port ISE OC3 90...If you plan to insert a new card, locate the entry for the card to be inserted and note the power consumed by it. If this power is less than the figure given in Worst Case Redundant Power Available (the figure is displayed in the show environment power-supply table command output), the card can be safely inserted. As long as the Worst Case Redundant Power Available is not zero, a PEM can be powered off for replacement without impact.
Note
Note
Caveats
Caveats describe unexpected behavior in Cisco IOS XR Software releases. Severity-1 caveats are the most serious caveats; severity-2 caveats are less serious.
This section lists the caveats for Cisco IOS XR Software Release 3.4.3. The caveats are organized as follows:
•
•
•
Quality of Service Units of Measure Changes
Because the default units of measure may no longer be the same, care must be taken when taking a configuration earlier than Cisco IOS XR Software, Release 3.3.0 and applying it to Cisco IOS XR Software, Release 3.3.0 or later. Table 6 lists the changes to Quality of Service (QoS) units of measure.
Note
Keywords cannot be inserted into the running configuration on a router running Cisco IOS XR Release 3.2.x in advance of the upgrade. An option is to edit the configuration offline, and add the necessary keywords.
Note
To remove a service policy from an input or output interface, use the no form of the service-policy command in interface configuration mode, as shown in the following syntax:
no service-policy {input | output}When the policy is removed from any interfaces, the edited policy is applied. See the following Cisco IOS XR command reference sections:
–
–
Platform-Independent Caveats
The following caveats apply to both Cisco CRS-1 and Cisco XR 12000 Series Routers:
Note
•
Description:
VPN V4/V6 routes are in BGP table, but not installed in RIB.
Symptom:
Following ios/syslog message appears:
RP/0/0/CPU0:Mar 20 11:39:01 : bgp[124]: %ROUTING-BGP-3-RIB_FAIL : [4] : Failed to send batched routes for VPNv4 Unicast while calling the RIB instance 0: 'Subsystem(8191)' detected the 'unknown' condition 'Code(63)': Unknown Error(507)RP/0/0/CPU0:Mar 20 11:41:36 : bgp[124]: %ROUTING-BGP-3-RIB_FAIL : [5] : Failed to send batched routes for VPNv6 Unicast while calling the RIB instance 1: 'Subsystem(8191)' detected the 'unknown' condition 'Code(63)': Unknown Error(507)routes will be in bgp table like 10.1.16.42/32 is in vrf 16 bgp table but same prefix is not found in RIB.RP/0/0/CPU0:IOXR-1#sh bgp vpnv4 unicast vrf 16 10.1.16.42/32BGP routing table entry for 10.1.16.42/32, Route Distinguisher: 300:16Versions:Process bRIB/RIB SendTblVerSpeaker 3217398 3217398Local Label: 975896Paths: (1 available, best #1)Advertised to update-groups (with more than one peer):0.2Path #1: Received by speaker 0100 600010.1.16.2 from 10.2.16.2 (10.2.44.2)Origin incomplete, localpref 100, valid, external, best, import-candidateExtended community: RT:16:16RP/0/0/CPU0:IOXR-1#sh route vrf 16 10.1.16.42/32% Network not in table.Conditions:
The problem is encountered with more than 300 VRFs configured on the router. Removing all the VRF configurations and reconfiguring the VRFs back again quickly might expose you to this problem.
Workaround:
Restart the BGP process.
•
Basic Description:
The chkpt_proxy process crashed after OSPF unconfig/rollback.
Conditions:
In some cases, an ospf chkpt_proxy terminates due to an OSPF uncofig/rollback.
Symptom:
The chkpt_proxy process is terminated for OSPF. No visible effect on the router.
Workaround:
None. Functionality impact is minimal, because after its termination, the chkpt_proxy restarts and resyncs all essential information from its parent process on the active RP.
•
Basic Description:
A tunnel does NOT go down and come up on topo change in non-head area.
Symptom:
When IOS XR Release 3.4 MPLS Traffic Engineering node is a non-head area node and there is a topology change triggered either due to IGP link add/removal or any other topology change in the IGP (say) Level 1 to Level 2 for the links on that node. The inter-area tunnels originating from the Head and going via that link will NOT flap as a result of this topology change.
Conditions:
This behavior is seen in IOS XR Release 3.4 in a non-head area node and inter-area TE tunnel is being setup with loose hop in the path ERO.
Additional Notes:
Path verification and tunnel reoptimization indication are not done by the midpt ABR node. This is similar to the IOS behavior today. This feature will be added in a future release.
Workaround:
None.
•
Basic Description:
L2VPN: Control Word cannot be set if pseudowire (PW) is established with cbit=0
Symptom:
Router not sending Control Word even when Control Word is enabled.
Conditions:
If a PW is established with cbit=0, and later using config we enabled control word or if neighbor sends a label mapping with control word cbit=1, Cisco IOS XR will still send cbit=0.
Workaround:
The workaround is to delete and reconfigure the PW on both the PEs.
•
Basic Description:
L2VPN: Support destination with Rtg ID different than LDP rtr ID.
Symptom:
Cannot establish PW to a non-LDP router ID address.
Conditions:
PW can be established on to the LDP router ID. Currently, Cisco IOS XR does not support PW to non-LDP router IDs.
Workaround:
None.
•
Basic Description:
Command show mpls lsd forwarding displays invalid format_tbl:136.
Symptom:
Command show mpls lsd forwarding displays invalid format_tbl:136.
Conditions:
Under normal scenarios.
Workaround:
There is no workaround for this as of now.
Caveats Specific to Cisco CRS-1
The following caveats are specific to the Cisco CRS-1 platform:
•
Basic Description:
Netio process restarts when trying to restore configuration from disk.
Symptom:
An unexpected netio process termination may occur when trying to restore configuration from disk or when changing the encapsulation of an interface from ppp to hdlc and vice versa.
Condition1: If the router has POS or serial interfaces and the configuration is cleared the following command and then restored back from disk, the netio process may terminate:
–
–
–
Condition 2: If the encapsulation of a serial interface is changed repeatedly from ppp to hdlc and vice versa, and if the packets are being sent out of that interface at the same time, the netio process may terminate.
Workaround:
Workaround for Condition 1: When loading the configuration from disk, make sure the POS and serial interfaces are in a shut-down state. Once the configuration is loaded, the interfaces can be enabled again.
Workaround for Condition 2: If there is a need to change the encaps of a serial or POS interface, shut the interface before changing the encapsulation. The interface can be enabled after the configuration change has been made.
•
Basic Description:
Line protocol state for SONET controller should be admin-down after LC reload.
Symptom:
When shutting down the SONET controller, Intf/LineP state shown in show controllers sonet should be admin-down/admin-down. However, LineP goes to the down state after LC reload.
Conditions:
Occurs after the LC reload.
Workaround:
Perform the no shutdown command on the controller, and then perform the shutdown again to clear the state.
•
Basic Description:
Unable to upgrade FPD for oc3/12 SPA.
Symptom:
FPGA upgrade may fail on OC3/12 SPA in a named SDR.
Conditions:
Normal operation.
Workaround:
Move the card in owner SDR, upgrade the FPGA and move it back to the named SDR.
•
Basic Description:
syslogd process crashed.
Symptom:
syslogd process crashed.
Conditions:
The logging level was debug and cctl debugs were enabled.
Workaround:
The syslogd process was automatically restarted.
•
Basic Description:
After FailOver instdir process crashed twice on the RP.
Symptom:
After FailOver instdir process crashed twice on RP.
Conditions:
Active RP reload.
Workaround:
None. The instdir process was restarted after the two crashed.
•
Basic Description:
Garbled character of authentication string on entering show vrrp detail command.
Symptom:
The last portion of the string value for show vrrp detail command is garbled.
Conditions:
When the eight alphanumeric characters are used by authentication string for VRRP.
Workaround:
None. The string value of show vrrp detail command is normal when the alphanumeric characters from one to seven are used for authentication.
Caveats Specific to Cisco XR 12000 Series Router
The following caveats are specific to the Cisco XR 12000 Series Router platform:
•
Basic Description:
vty-pool config timeout messages appear after reload.
Symptoms:
On reboot or during a commit of a configuration change, the following pair of messages may appear:
sysdb_svr_shared[596]: %SYSDB-SYSDB-7-TIMEOUT_APPLY : Apply callback for 'cfg/gl/vty/pools/default' from 'cfgmgr-rp' (jid 180, node 0/10/CPU0). No response from 'devc-vty' (jid 193, node 0/10/CPU0) within the timeout period (120 seconds), system may now be in an inconsistent statesysdb_mc[593]: %SYSDB-SMC-7-TIMEOUT : Message #2011, destined for shared plane, timed out having received 0 of 1 expected responses: returning error to client cfgmgr-rp. Check for potential transport issues within the system, or deadlocked SysDB processes.Conditions:
The problem is seen when the startup configuration, or the configuration change being committed, contains vty-pool configuration items.
Workaround:
If the problem is seen during startup, no workaround is required. The vty-pool configuration should be present in the running configuration. To verify this, use the show running-config command.
If the problem is seen during a commit, also use the show running-config command to verify whether or not the committed configuration is present.
If it is not present, repeat the commit of the vty-pool commands, this time using the best-effort option in conjunction with the commit command.
Finally, run the cfs check command to re-synchronize the persistent configuration on disk with the running configuration.
