ExtremeXOS Release Notes for version 32.4 11

Upgrading ExtremeXOS
For instructions about upgrading ExtremeXOS software, see Software Upgrade and
Boot Options in ExtremeXOS 32.4 User Guide.

An ExtremeXOS core image (.xos file) must be downloaded and installed on the
alternate (non-active) partition. If you try to download to an active partition, the system
displays the following error message: Error: Image can only be installed to the
non-active partition. An ExtremeXOS modular software package (.xmod file) can
still be downloaded and installed on either the active or alternate partition.

Note
New ExtremeSwitching X435 PoE switches with a Giga device MCU part
(switch default ships with supported EXOS versions from the factory) will
prevent the switch downgrade to older EXOS versions.
The following error message is displayed during the downgrades to older
versions:
Error: Failed to download image - summitlite_arm-31.6.1.3.xos does not
include compatible PoE microcontroller support. See the User Guide for
information on installing a newer software release. See the
Hardware/Software Compatibility and Recommendation Matrices to verify the
supported releases.

The switch can be identified for the inclusion of the Giga device MCU by
checking the PoE firmware revision (5.0 or later) by entering the show inline-
power stats command (line four):
# show inline-power stats
Inline-Power Slot Statistics
Firmware status : Operational
Firmware revision : 5.0.0b4
Total ports powered : 3
Total ports awaiting power : 20
Total ports faulted : 0
Total ports disabled : 1

software installed. You should promptly upgrade the software to the latest version
available by visiting the Extreme Portal.

For information about upgrading the ExtremeXOS software, see the ExtremeXOS
Upgrade Process topic in the Software Upgrade and Boot Options chapter of the

New and Corrected Features in
ExtremeXOS 32.4
Auto-negotiation Enhancement on page 18
Direct Route Leaking Between Virtual Routers on page 18

This section lists the new and corrected features supported in the 32.4 software:

Auto-negotiation Enhancement
Beginning in version 32.4, Auto-negotiation defaults to ON for SFP28, QSFP+, and
QSFP28 ports (25G/40G/50G/100G).

Supported Platforms
ExtremeSwitching X460-G2, X465, X590, and X695 series switches.

Direct Route Leaking Between Virtual Routers

Version 32.4 adds support for leaking direct routes of specified VLAN(s) to a different
Virtual Router (VR). Adjacent (directly connected) hosts are also reachable in the
specified VR.

Note
This feature is an additional method for achieving Inter-VR routing without an
external router. You can also allow a static route's gateway to be in a different
VR by entering the configure iproute add command and specifying vlan
egress_vlan, or redistribute routes from one OSPF instance to another
OSPF instance in a different VR by entering the enable ospf export {vr}
command.

Leaked direct routes are created with origin direct-inter-vr in the leak-to-VR. These
routes have a lower route priority than direct routes and a higher route priority than any
other route type.

The route priority of direct-inter-vr can be modified using the iproute priority
command. These routes can be redistributed to the OSPF protocol in the leak-to-VR

18 ExtremeXOS Release Notes for version 32.4

New and Corrected Features in ExtremeXOS 32.4 Supported Platforms

like any other routes in the VR. OSPF’s route redistribution command is also extended
as part of this feature and includes the direct-inter-vr route type.

Note
To ping a directly attached host from the switch command line successfully,
the ping command must specify the correct VR name (or use the correct
command line VR context) containing the VLAN with that subnet. If another
VR name or VR context is used, the ping will not be successful.

Supported Platforms
All platforms.

New CLI Commands

The following new CLI commands support this feature:

configure iproute add direct-inter-vr {ipv4} [{vlan} from_vlan_name |

vlan from_vlan_list] {{vr} to_vr_name}

configure iproute delete direct-inter-vr {ipv4} [{vlan} from_vlan_name |

vlan from_vlan_list] {{vr} to_vr_name}

show iproute direct-inter-vr {ipv4} {from-vr from_vr_name} {{vr}

to_vr_name}

Changed CLI Commands

The following commands are enhanced to support this feature:

ExtremeXOS Release Notes for version 32.4 19

ExtremeCloud IQ Agent Support
ExtremeXOS 32.4 supports ExtremeCloud IQ. For network administrators looking for
unified management of access points, switches, and routers, ExtremeCloud IQ is a
cloud-driven network management application that:
• Simplifies network operations through an easy to use and intuitive interface,
including minimal touch onboarding of devices.
• Provides ultimate flexibility in deployment choice, cloud platform choice, and OS
choice.
• Offers unlimited data duration for more informed networking decisions.

Important
Check the ExtremeCloud IQ release notes to ensure support for your version
has been added before upgrading.

This release supports device discovery, basic monitoring, visibility into homogenous
stacking, and the ability to configure an optional user-defined virtual router (VR) and
server address for ExtremeCloud IQ agent to connect to. These values are used instead
of any auto-detected values.

For more information about licenses, see ExtremeXOS 32.4 Feature License
Requirements.

The following tables summarize tested metrics for a variety of features, as measured
in a per-system basis unless otherwise noted. These limits may change, but represent
the current status. The contents of this table supersede any values mentioned in the
ExtremeXOS books.

The scaling and performance information shown in the following tables is provided
for the purpose of assisting with network design. It is recommended that network
architects and administrators design and manage networks with an appropriate level
of network scaling “head room.” The scaling and performance figures provided have
been verified using specific network topologies using limited switch configurations.
There is no guarantee that the scaling and performance figures shown are applicable
to all network topologies and switch configurations and are provided as a realistic
estimation only. If you experience scaling and performance characteristics that you feel
are sufficiently below what has been documented, contact Extreme Networks technical
support for additional assistance.

The route limits shown in the following tables for IPv4 and IPv6 routing protocols
are software limits only. The actual hardware limits may be higher or lower than
the software limits, based on platform. The hardware limits for specific platforms are
specified as "IPv4/IPv6 routes (LPM entries in hardware)" in the following tables.

In the Extended Edge Switching architecture, Layer-2, Layer-3, and multicast packet
forwarding and filtering operations take place on the controlling bridge. The controlling
bridge switch and attached BPEs (V400 Virtual Port Extenders) constitute a single,
