Opened: Aug 06, 2018

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

Segments being processed for large receive offload (LRO) (the action the system performs to aggregate multiple incoming packets within a buffer before passing them up) might be erroneously VLAN-tagged when LRO is enabled.

Impact

Egress traffic might sometimes be tagged.

Conditions

-- TCP LRO enabled. -- Egress VLAN untagged.

Workaround

Disable TCP LRO. To enable or disable LRO functionality, you can use the following command syntax: tmsh modify sys db tm.tcplargereceiveoffload value <enable | disable>

Fix Information

The system now ensures that fragment packet flags are correctly set.
