The BX520 blades had more throughput than the BX110, but the TCPDUMP utility could not keep up with the amount of TCPDUMP traffic the smaller blade could do.
Slower TCPDUMP from dropping TCPDUMP packets when customer uses system diagnostic TCPDUMP in the confD cli.
BX520 TCPDUMP throughput was quite low compared to BX110 blades, about half of BX110 when it should be double to 3x that of BX110 since BX520 has 4x throughput as BX110.
None
Now the line-dma-agent is servicing the DMs on NSO/TAM fast enough for the TCPDUMP higher-throughput traffic on BX520.
