F5OS Velos
Opened: Dec 17, 2021
Severity: 1-Blocking
In a VELOS chassis with two or more blades installed, when LLDP is enabled globally or on any front panel link, rebooting the blade which hosts the LLDP daemon may cause one of the other blades in the chassis to loose traffic connectivity approximately one minute after the first blade is rebooted. The blade may drop all further non-management traffic until it is also rebooted.
Another blade in the chassis may loose all non-management network traffic until it is rebooted.
LLDP must be enabled in the partition CLI. The blade which is rebooted must be the blade which is currently hosting the lldpd daemon. The issue is intermittent upon blade reboot.
This issue is not present if LLDP is disabled in the partition CLI. Rebooting the degraded blade should recover it to an operational state, though it is possible to encounter the issue again, back-to-back.
