multicast paths.

Monitoring transceiver data MIB support added for the feature Introduced a new MIB to retrieve transceiver details.
through SNMP

SupportAssist enhancements Included support for transferring core files and event logs to the SupportAssist server.

SupportAssist is enabled by default and can be disabled using CLI. When SupportAssist is enabled,
the switch periodically sends information to an external SupportAssist server. The information sent
includes the identity of the switch like service tag and serial number, configuration, logs, status, and
diagnostic information. Dell Networking OS 9.11(0.0P2) introduces support for transferring core files
and event logs to the SupportAssist server.

X.509v3 Support for X.509v3 Digital Certificates on Dell Networking OS.

ACL range profiles You can configure range of L4 source and destination ports as part of L3 ACLs, which results in only
one ACL entry. This reduces the space used by ACL entries in the forwarding tab You can configure
range of L4 source and destination ports as part of L3 ACLs which results in multiple ACL entires in
TCAM. You can use the acl range command to ensure that only one TCAM entry is used in the
forwarding table.

AAA re-authentication Enable re-authentication of user whenever there is a change in the authentication.

802.1x re-authentication The re-authentication is applicable for authenticated 802.1x devices. When there is a change in the
authentication servers, the supplicants connected to all the ports are forced to re-authenticate.

shutting down BGP neighbors across all address families and individual address families.

VLT port monitoring Support for applying port monitoring function on the VLT devices in the network. Introduced support
for remote port-monitoring (RSPAN) with VLT.

Configurable CoPP queues Introduced support for mapping protocols to CPU queues in control plane policing.

PFC storm control Introduced support to disable traffic based on specific priority if PFC storm is received. Introduced
support to drop L2 unicast PFC packets instead of flooding them. Also, introduced new MIBs for
these feature.

Viewing uRPF status Enhanced the show ipv4 interface and show ipv6 interface commands to display unicast reverse path
forwarding (uRPF) status.

ECMP group count The show cam-usage command now displays the amount of used and available CAM space for
ECMP groups in each CAM partition.

Monitoring the overall buffer MIB support added for this feature Introduced new command and SNMP support to display the used
usage for lossy and lossless traffic and available buffer for both lossy and lossless traffic.

Show QoS Statistics to show Enhanced the show qos statistics egress-queue command output to display per-queue per-port TX
egress per Q per Interface drop and drop rates. Added MIB support to retrieve the same information using SNMP.
rate

Global rate interval configuration Support for configuring traffic sampling interval global Ability to configure rate-interval globally. This
configuration replaces the default rate-interval value of all physical and portchannel interfaces from
its default value to the new configured value.

Restrictions
• BIOS version can also be 3.23.0.0-6,3.23.0.10-1.
• ONIE version can also be 3.23.1.3, 3.23.1.10-2.
• DIAG OS version can also be V3.23.3.3 (APR 8 build), 3.23.3.10-4.
• When configuring CAM ACL using the cam-acl l2acl 2 ipv4acl 2 ipv6acl 0 ipv4qos 1 l2qos 2 l2pt 0
ipmacacl 0 vman-qos 0 ecfmacl 2 fcoeacl 4 iscsioptacl 0 command and reloading, the system fails due to a
limitation in the BCM SDK 6.3.4.
• Dell Networking OS does not support encapsulated remote switched port analyzer (ERSPAN) and remote switched port analyzer
(RSPAN) in a VLT setup.
• The following features are not available in Dell Networking OS versions 9.8(1.0P1) and 9.11(0.0P2):
• Protocol-independent multicast (PIM) equal cost multi path (ECMP)
• Static Internet group management protocol (IGMP) join (ip igmp static-group)
• IGMP querier timeout configuration (ip igmp querier-timeout)
• IGMP group join limit (ip igmp group join-limit)
• When 1024 or more VNI profiles are configured, the system takes more time to load. Dell recommends to restrict the VNI profiles to be
less than 1000.
• If you use the interface range command to select multiple interfaces that are added to the management VRF, the ipv6
address command does not display the autoconfig option. You can configure the autoconfig command on individual

Release Notes, OS Version 9.11(0.0P4)
• When FRRP is enabled in a VLT domain, no flavor of Spanning tree should concurrently be enabled on the nodes of that specific VLT
domain. In essence FRRP and xSTP should not co-exist in a VLT environment.

Changes to the Default Behavior and CLI Syntax


The following behavior and CLI changes are applicable to the Z9100–ON switch with Dell Networking OS version 9.11(0.0P2):

• While configuring a password using the command line interface, the ~ character is supported.
• The system displays whether there is a change in privilege or role to the administrator’s account since last login.
• DNS Query support for both IP and IPv6: In a dual stack setup, the system sends both A (request for IPv4 — RFC 1035) and AAAA
(request for IPv6 — RFC 3596) record requests to a DNS server even if only the ip name-server command is configured.
• You can use the show pfc statistics command even without enabling DCB on the system.
• When you reload the system, you can use Dell Networking OS CLI and select whether to reload into Dell Networking OS or ONIE.
• Support for hmac-sha2-256-96 hashing algorithm option is discontinued.
• SupportAssist is enabled by default on the system.

Documentation Corrections
In the Dell Networking Command Line Reference Guide for the Z9100–ON System, the version number in the document title and the
command history tables for all the commands is incorrectly mentioned as 9.10(0.0). The correct version number for all the commands
introduced in Z9100-ON is 9.8(1.0P1).

In the Dell Networking OS Configuration Guide for the Z9100–ON System, the version number in the document title is incorrectly
mentioned as 9.10(0.0). The correct version number is 9.8(1.0P1).

The Dell Networking Command Line Reference Guide for the Z9100–ON System and Dell Networking OS Configuration Guide for the
Z9100–ON System mention that the system supports up to eight ACL VLAN groups. But the system supports up to 31 ACL VLAN groups.

Deferred Issues
Issues that appear in this section were reported in Dell Networking OS version 9.10(0.0) as open, but have since been deferred. Deferred
issues are those that are found to be invalid, not reproducible, or not scheduled for resolution.
Deferred issues are reported using the following definitions.

Category Description
PR# Problem Report number that identifies the issue.
Severity S1 — Crash: A software crash occurs in the kernel or a running process that requires a restart of AFM, the router,
switch, or process.

S2 — Critical: An issue that renders the system or a major feature unusable, which can have a pervasive impact on
the system or network, and for which there is no work-around acceptable to the customer.

S3 — Major: An issue that affects the functionality of a major feature or negatively effects the network for which
there exists a work-around that is acceptable to the customer.

S4 — Minor: A cosmetic issue or an issue in a minor feature with little or no network impact for which there might
be a work-around.

Release Notes, OS Version 9.11(0.0P4)
Category Description
Work around Work around describes a mechanism for circumventing, avoiding, or recovering from the issue. It might not be a
permanent solution.

Issues listed in the “Closed Caveats” section should not be present, and the work-around is unnecessary, as the
version of code for which this release note is documented has resolved the caveat.

Deferred Z9100–ON 9.11(0.0P2) Software Issues


The following issues are deferred in the Dell Networking OS version 9.11(0.0P2):

PR# 161657

Severity: Sev 2

Synopsis: When ND entries are deleted in one of the VLT peer, it is not synced to other VLT peer.

Release Notes: If ND in VLT-Node-1 ND is deleted, it is not synced to VLT-Node-2. But as soon as node-1 learns ND
again due to any pkt being received for that station it will be synced to node-2. Since traffic is hashed
across both nodes the time will be less.

Workaround: The clear ipv6 neighbor command could be used to remove stale entries.

PR# 160934

Severity: Sev 2

Synopsis: If we disable and enable DCB when available buffer for lossy service-pool is 0, buffer allocations goes
wrong.

Release Notes: If we disable and enable DCB when available buffer for lossy service-pool is 0, buffer allocations?goes
wrong. Lossy buffer holds 280 KB, when it should stay at 0. No real deployment impact since it is
unlikely for deployments to have all buffer allocated to lossless traffic, and have 0 buffers for lossy
traffic.

Workaround: None.

PR# 161923

Severity: Sev 2

Synopsis: With WRED configured, ACL permit counter shows lesser number of packets hit even though the
entire stream is permitted.

Release Notes: With WRED configured, L2/L3 permit ACL counter on a vlan interface shows lesser than 1000
packets when 1000 packets ingress on a vlan member port even though all the 1000 packets are
allowed. The issue occurs for the first instance of show acl counters after a “clear counter”, with
continuous traffic.

Workaround: Using a more specific clear command, like clear counter would circumvent the issue. None,
otherwise.

VLT (Resolved)

PR# 158985

Severity: Sev 2

Synopsis: VLT does not function correctly when one peer runs Dell Networking OS version below 9.9(0.0) and
the other runs version 9.9(0.0) or above.

Release Notes: When one VLT device is upgraded to Dell Networking OS version 9.9(0.0) or later from an earlier
version, and the peer VLT device still runs a version less than 9.9(0.0), VLT does not function
correctly for some features due to certain mismatch in the feature related VLT message exchanges.
The affected features include: 1. PVST 2. VLT Q-in-Q 3. CLI batch 4. Provider bridge group Once the
problem manifests, the behavior persists even after the peer VLT device is upgraded to the same
version. It recovers only when both the VLT peers reboot simultaneously.

Workaround: - Upgrade the VLT secondary switch and reboot. - Before VLT secondary switch comes up and
establishes VLT, shutdown VLTi link on the primary device. - Upgrade the VLT primary and reboot. -
Once the VLT primary device is up, use the no shutdown command to enable the VLTi link.

VRRP (Resolved)

Synopsis: Using VRRP version 3 for IPv4 VRRP groups is not interoperable with other vendor routers

Release Notes: This release fixes an issue that prevented interoperability of Dell OS9 routers with other vendor
routers when using VRRP version 3 for IPv4 VRRP groups. Typically VRRPv2 is used for IPv4 VRRP
groups and VRRPv3 for IPv6 groups. Those have always been interoperable. With this fix, using
VRRPv3 for IPv4 VRRP groups will be interoperable as well.

Workaround: When interoperating with other vendor routers use VRRP version 2 for all IPv4 VRRP groups.
