Opened: Jun 16, 2021

Severity: 4-Minor

Symptoms

When bigd.mgmtroutecheck is enabled and monitors are configured in a non-default route-domain, bigd may calculate the interface index incorrectly. This can result in monitor probes improperly being denied when they egress a non-mgmt VLAN. Or monitor probes might be allowed to egress the management interface

Impact

Monitor probes may be denied even thought they egress a non-mgmt VLAN. Monitor probes may be improperly allowed out a mgmt interface. /var/log/ltm: err bigd.0[19431]: 01060126:3: Health check would route via mgmt port, node fc02:0:0:b::1%1. Check routing table. bigd debug log: :(_do_ping): probe denied; restricted egress device and route check [ tmm?=false td=true tr=false addr=fc02:0:0:b::1%1:0 srcaddr=none ]

Conditions

-- Bigd.mgmtroutecheck is enabled. -- Monitor probes in a non-default route domain -- More than one VLAN configured in the route-domain

Workaround

Disable bigd.mgmtroutecheck, reduce the number of VLANs inside the route-domain

Fix Information

The Bigd interface index is now calculated properly
