Upstream switch could receive flow response from both active and standby units and cause a traffic disturbance.
-- pva.standby.flush DB key set to 1 (enabled). The default is 0. -- Processing high traffic volume for some time
None
Modified the "Pva.Standby.Flush" DB key to take two new values ("2" and "3"). This DB key defines actions that the system takes when a traffic-group goes standby. The values of this DB key are now: -- 0: do nothing (the default) -- 1: evict all ePVA accelerated flows for all traffic-groups -- 2: inform the ePVA to stop processing traffic destined for the MAC masquerade address for this traffic-group -- 3: perform both of the above actions (evict all ePVA accelerated flows, and inform the ePVA to stop processing traffic for the MAC masquerade address)
