Hitless-supported services and protocols - FSX 800
and FSX 1600 (Continued) TABLE 12
Traffic type Supported protocols
and services Impact
Layer 3 IPv6
routed traffic • BGP4+
• IPv6 unicast
forwarding
• OSPFv3
• OSPFv3 with ECMP
• Static routes
• VRRP
• VRRP-E
Layer 3 routed traffic for
supported protocols is not
impacted during a Hitless
management event. Traffic
will converge to normalcy
after the new active module
becomes operational.
Other Layer 3 protocols that
are not supported will be
interrupted during the
switchover or failover.
If BGP4+ graceful restart or
OSPF graceful restart /
OSPFv3 NSR is enabled, it
will be gracefully restarted
and traffic will converge to
normalcy after the new active
module becomes
operational. For details about
OSPFv3 graceful restart,
refer to "OSPF v3 graceful
restart" section in the
FastIron Ethernet Switch
Layer 3 Routing
Configuration Guide. For
details about BGP4 graceful
restart, refer to
"BGP4+graceful restart"
section in the FastIron
Ethernet Switch Layer 3
Routing Configuration Guide.
Configured ACLs will operate
in a hitless manner.
Management
traffic N/A All existing management
sessions (SNMP, TELNET,
HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, TFTP,
SSH etc.), are interrupted
during the switchover or
failover process. All such
sessions are terminated and
can be re-established after
the new Active Controller
takes over.
