New Features

Layer 2 and Layer 3

Bug ID	Release	Description
12814	3.8.0	VXLAN Routing The VTEP enabled VXLAN routing behaves as a VXLAN L3 gateway under centralized routing mode. Please have detailed at VXLAN Routing.
13098	3.8.0	Enable VXLAN on NAC Ports VXLAN is not allowed to be configured on the ports with NAC, such as 802.1x and MAB and web authentication, enabled. This restriction is removed in release 3.8.0.
13101	3.8.0	DNS Domain Search List Add a CLI command "set system dns-search-list xxxx" to configure the search list of DNS lookup with the host name.

Hardware

Bug ID	Release	Description
12496	3.8.0	Support AS5835-54T AS5835-54T consists of 48X10G RJ ports and 6X100G QSFP28 uplink ports on the front panel.

Fixed Issues

Layer 2 and Layer 3 Features

Bug ID	Release	Description
13106	3.8.0	Cannot Read out EEPROM Data on AS7326-56X The I2C address is changed on the new model of AS7326-56X. The driver code is modified to fix this issue on the update model of AS7326.
13172	3.8.0.1	Aquantia PHY Firmware is Not in SPI Flash on N3224PX-ON Ports cannot link up if Aquantia firmware is not loaded to the RAM of the external PHY on N3224PX-ON. In case that Aquantia PHY firmware is not in SPI flash attached to the external PHY, PICOS will get CLD image of Aquantia PHY firmware programmed into the SPI flash. And then reset the external PHY to load Aquantia PHY firmware and make ports up automatically.
13171	3.8.0.1	Cannot Forward Traffic if Link Speed is 5G on N3224PX-ON If link speed is negotiated to 5G with a connected device, the traffic from the attached device cannot be forwarded. This issue was fixed in 3.8.0.1.
13161	3.8.0.1	Cannot Recognize PoE Device of Class 4-8 on N3224PX-ON By testing with PoE tester, PD class 4-8 cannot be recognized on N3224PX-ON. This issue was fixed in 3.8.0.1.
13173	3.8.0.1	NAC: Downloadable ACL Rules with L4 Port Range don't Work on Trident3-X3 Platforms A DACL rules to match a L4 port range cannot be applied to the ASIC hardware on Trident3-X3 Platforms such as Dell N32XX and EdgeCore AS4630. This issue was fixed in 3.8.0.1.
13159	3.8.0.1	PoE Cannot Work on N3132PX-ON PoE cannot work on specific port randomly on N3132PX-ON. This issue was fixed in 3.8.0.1.
