We have tried 05800aa and the worst bug we have experienced is a near-loss of forwarding for some directly-connected networks. I say near loss because it appears at first to be 100% packet loss, but if you try for like 5 minutes, eventually some packets get through. BGP neighbors would establish, but then quickly fail.

Defect observed on two chassis. BTAC's recommendation is to reload one particular slot, but I haven't tried that to determine if it helps. Problem happens apparently 100% of the time upon first bootup. Am not satisified with a fix that involves manually reloading certain slots after every reboot.

Hello Steven,

Nasty indeed. Was it fixed by BTAC ? Were you able to test 05800b ?

Best regards.
