Bug ID 1818185: The meaning of the interface phyport internal field changed from phyport to DID. This will break functionality that is using phyport

Last Modified: Jun 19, 2025

Affected Product(s):
F5OS Install/Upgrade, Velos(all modules)

Known Affected Versions:
F5OS-C 1.8.0

Fixed In:
F5OS-C 1.8.1

Opened: Feb 12, 2025

Severity: 1-Blocking

Symptoms

Two different symptoms surfaced after the meaning of phyport changed: - reset-counters for an specific interface - lag members association with a lag in fpgamgr

Impact

For the lag members mismatch, the data packets will be forwarded to the wrong port. For the reset counters, the counters are not reset for the specified interface.

Conditions

You configure LAGs while running 1.6.2, with LAG members spanning multiple blades (e.g. blade-1 and blade-3), and then perform a live upgrade to 1.8.0 and above. You attempt to reset counters for a specific interface (e.g. 1/1.0) after a live upgrade from 1.6.2 into 1.8.0 and above.

Workaround

For the reset-counters issue, execute reset counters for all interfaces. This will clean up the counters. For the LAG member mismatch, reboot the blades after live install ends successfully.

Fix Information

The fix addresses the mismatch in interface phyport values. This will allow reset counters per interface to work. This will allow the lag members to be properly handled after live upgrade.
