Affected Product(s):

Known Affected Versions:

Symptoms

When running "system database config-restore" on the chassis partition CLI, the fdb and vlan-listeners tables are erroneously restored. These tables can contain stale data that interferes with datapath configuration.

Workaround

Delete the fdb and vlan-listeners tables immediately after restoring the configuration. Follow this procedure: 1. system database reset-to-default proceed yes 2. system database config-restore name <backup_filename> 3. no fdb ; no vlan-listeners ; commit
