1546739	MVPN multicast route entry may not be properly updated with actual downstream interfaces list Product-Group=junos	In multicast VPN RPT-SPT mode with both locally and remotely connected receivers, the multicast forwarding entry related to the actual downstream interfaces may not be properly updated. The issue may happen when multicast forwarding entry is created by locally connected PIM receiver, followed by remote receiver and after local receiver decides to prune its membership in that multicast group.
PR Number	Synopsis	Category: vMX Data Plane Issues
1544856	The riot forwarding daemon crash might be observed on vMX based platforms configured with IRB interface Product-Group=junos	On vMX based platforms enabled with IRB interface, the riot forwarding daemon crash might be observed which could lead to traffic loss.
PR Number	Synopsis	Category: Protocol Independant Multicast
1501722	The rpd process might crash in a multicast scenario with BGP configured. Product-Group=junos	In multicast scenario with BGP configured, when a new BGP link is brought up (such as, after updating specific BGP policies), which changes the RPF neighbor information and this update causes the rpd core to happen. The issue is seen only while updating RPF neighbor information and not seen while building it for the first time.
PR Number	Synopsis	Category: KRT Queue issues within RPD
1493963	The rpd process generates a core dumps Product-Group=junos	On EVO platforms running BGP with knob 'route-record' or sampling, the rpd might crash if BGP paths exceed around 5600K.

1507638	On all Junos OS dual-Routing Engine GRES or NSR enabled routers, the rpd process might crash on a new master Routing Engine if the Routing Engine switchover occurs right after massive routing-instance deletion. Product-Group=junos	On all Junos platforms, if GRES and NSR are enabled at a dual-RE router and if RE switchover happens (either manually or due to some other reasons) right after deleting a big number of routing instances, then rpd at a new master RE could crash once. Once a new master RPD crashed, it will restart by itself.
PR Number	Synopsis	Category: IPSEC functionality on M/MX/T ser
1544794	CMVTS:mspmand cored at pconn_client_try_connect (clnt=0x10064ae00) at ../../../../../src/junos/lib/libconn/pconn_conn.c:2155 Product-Group=junos	During activate/deactivate of interfaces multiple times, sometimes mspmand may core in pconn library because of NULL pointer access. The service pic will auto-recover after a reboot.
PR Number	Synopsis	Category: Trio pfe bridging, learning, stp, oam, irb software
1506861	The MEP session on the aggregated Ethernet interface might not come up if OAM runs with PPM mode by default. Product-Group=junos	On MX platform running with enhance IP mode or enhanced ethernet mode, also, Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) is enabled with Periodic Packet Management (PPM) mode by default, maintenance association end point (MEP) session might be failed to create. In the end, network connection failure might not be efficiently monitored. This is functional impact.
1542211	Trio-based FPC might crash when the underlying layer 2 interface for ARP over IRB interface is changed from physical interface to LSI interface Product-Group=junos	This issue applies to a Trio-based FPC using the integrated routing and bridging (IRB) interface with a VPLS instance using the label-switched interface (LSI) to provide VPLS functionality. The FPC may restart unexpectedly. The restart is triggered when the underlying layer-2 interface for ARP over IRB interface changes from the physical interface to the LSI interface.
PR Number	Synopsis	Category: VSRX platform software
1524243	The control link may be broken when there is excessive traffic load on the control link in vSRX cluster deployment Product-Group=junosvae	In the vSRX2.0 cluster running on KVM, when there is excessive traffic load on the control link (em0 link), the error message kernel: em0: watchdog timeout on queue 0 might be shown in the syslog. This interruption might cause the cluster control link to fail and dynamic routing protocols not to work properly.

Product-Group=junos	In specific MPC hardware failure conditions within the MX2K platform, fabric healing will attempt to auto-heal the fault location in 3 phases to prevent traffic blackholing. If under such fault conditions only destination timeouts are reported without corresponding link errors, the fabric healing process might restart all MPCs in phase-2 in an auto-healing attempt and if the error condition appears again within 10 minutes the last phase-2 might offline all MPCs in the system.
