Software Features in Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.3
Feature Name
Description
Software Maintenance Upgrade
SMU is a package that can be installed on a system, to provide a patch fix or security resolution to a released image.
Cisco QSFP to SFP or SFP+ Adapter (Cisco QSA Module)
Cisco Catalyst 3650 Series Switches support the Cisco QSA Module, which is a pluggable adapter that converts a QSFP port in to an SFP+ port. You can connect only an SFP+ module.
Description, License Level Information, and Documentation Link
New in Wired Switching
Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) Bypass
A backward compatible mode, equivalent to not having CDP support. When the feature is enabled, CDP packets are received and transmitted unchanged. Received packets are not processed; no packets are generated. In this mode, 'bump-in-the-wire' behavior is applied to CDP packets.
Cisco NSF works with the Stateful switchover (SSO) feature to minimize the amount of time a network is unavailable to its users following a switchover.
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Explicit Tracking
Enables a multicast device to explicitly track the membership of all multicast hosts in a particular multiaccess network. The explicit tracking of hosts, groups, and channels enables the device to keep track of each individual host that is joined to a particular group or channel.
Provides a filtering mechanism to solve the high IP-Scalable Group Tag (SGT) bindings scale issue. When bindings are exported or imported, filters are provided on a per-peer basis or globally (applicable to all SXP connections) with an option to filter either as a listener or a speaker. The filtering can also be done based on IP prefixes or SGT.
Allows a service provider to support two or more VPNs with overlapping IP addresses using one interface. VRF-Lite uses input interfaces to distinguish routes for different VPNs and forms virtual packet-forwarding tables by associating one or more Layer 3 interfaces with each VRF.
Locator ID Separator Protocol (LISP) Extranet Support and Source Group Access Control List (SGACL) Cell Statistics
LISP Extranet Support—Refers to subscriber to provider communication across instance IDs in a LISP network. With LISP Extranet support, hosts in VRF “A”, for example, can access shared resources in VRF “B”.
SGACL Cell Statistics—An enhancement in the show cts role-based counters ipv4 command, to display all SGACL enforcement statistics for IPv4, providing visibility at the cell level.
external BGP (eBGP) and internal BGP (iBGP) OR eiBGP
IPv6 Provider Edge over MPLS (6PE)
IPv6 VPN Provider Edge over MPLS (6VPE)
The following MPLS features are introduced in this release:
EoMPLS—One of the Any Transport over MPLS (AToM) transport types. EoMPLS provides a tunneling mechanism for Ethernet traffic through an MPLS-enabled Layer 3 core. It encapsulates Ethernet protocol data units (PDUs) inside MPLS packets and uses label stacking to forward them across the MPLS network.
VPLS—A class of VPN that supports the connection of multiple sites in a single bridged domain over a managed IP/MPLS network. VPLS uses the provider core to join multiple attachment circuits together, to simulate a virtual bridge that connects the multiple attachment circuits together.
EIGRP MPLS VPN PE-CE SoO—Introduces the capability to filter MPLS Virtual Private Network (VPN) traffic on a per-site basis for Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) networks. SoO filtering is configured at the interface level and is used to manage MPLS VPN traffic, and to prevent transient routing loops from occurring in complex and mixed network topologies.
Route Target Rewrite—Allows the replacement of route targets on incoming and outgoing Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) updates. Route targets are carried as extended community attributes in BGP Virtual Private Network IP Version 4 (VPNv4) updates. Route target extended community attributes are used to identify a set of sites and VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) instances that can receive routes with a configured route target.
eiBGP— Enables you to configure multipath load balancing with both eBGP and iBGP paths in Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) networks that are configured to use MPLS VPNs. The feature provides improved load balancing deployment and service offering capabilities and is useful for multi-homed autonomous systems and Provider Edge (PE) routers that import both eBGP and iBGP paths from multihomed and stub networks.
6PE—A technique that provides global IPv6 reachability over IPv4 MPLS. It allows one shared routing table for all other devices. 6PE allows IPv6 domains to communicate with one another over the IPv4 without an explicit tunnel setup, requiring only one IPv4 address per IPv6 domain.
6VPE—A mechanism to use the IPv4 backbone to provide VPN IPv6 services. 6VPE is like a regular IPv4 MPLS-VPN provider edge, with an addition of IPv6 support within VRF. It provides logically separate routing table entries for VPN member devices.
Programmability features introduced or enhanced in this release:
ZTP—Now supports HTTP file download along with TFTP file download.
Model-Driven Telemetry—Provides a mechanism to stream data from a Model-Driven Telemetry-capable device, to a destination. The data to be streamed is driven through subscription. The feature is enabled automatically, when NETCONF-YANG is started on a device.
In-Service Model Update package— Updates YANG data models on a device.
Revision statements embedded in the YANG files indicate if there has been a model revision. The README.md file in the same github location highlights changes that have been made in the release.
With this feature, when an active switch fails, the standby switch starts up in a fully-initialized state and synchronizes with the persistent configuration and the running configuration of the active switch. The new active switch uses existing Layer 2 switching information to continue forwarding traffic.
Removes all the customer specific data that has been added to the device since the time of its shipping.
Enter the factory-reset all command to erase all the content from the NVRAM, all Cisco IOS images including the current boot image, boot variables, startup and running configuration data, and user data. The Onboard Failure Logging (OBFL) logs and the crash information are also deleted.
No system configuration is required to use the factory reset command. Use the command with all options enabled.
Do not unplug the power or interrupt the factory reset operation.
The system reloads to perform the Factory Reset. Note that after this operation, you can load the IOS image either through a USB or TFTP.
Use cases for the feature:
Return Material Authorization (RMA) for a device—If you have to return a device to Cisco for RMA, remove all customer-specific data before obtaining a RMA certificate for the device.
Recovering the compromised device—If the key material or credentials stored on a device is compromised, reset the device to factory configuration and then reconfigure the device.
(LAN Base, IP Base, and IP Services)(LAN Base, IP Base, and IP Services)
The Enterprise Fabric provides end-to-end enterprise-wide segmentation, flexible subnet addressing, and controller-based networking with uniform enterprise-wide policy and mobility. It moves the enterprise network from current VLAN-centric architecture to a user group-based enterprise architecture, with flexible Layer 2 extensions within and across sites.

Finding the Software Version and Feature Set
The package files for the Cisco IOS XE software are stored on the system board flash device (flash:).
You can use the show version privileged EXEC command to see the software version that is running on your switch.
Note Although the show version output always shows the software image running on the switch, the model name shown at the end of this display is the factory configuration and does not change if you upgrade the software license.
You can also use the dir filesystem : privileged EXEC command to see the directory names of other software images that you might have stored in flash memory.
Note You cannot use the Web UI to install, upgrade to, or downgrade from Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.x.x or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.x.x.

Automatic Boot Loader Upgrade
When you upgrade from any prior IOS 3.xE release to an IOS XE 16.x.x release for the first time, the boot loader may be automatically upgraded, based on the hardware version of the switch. If the boot loader is automatically upgraded, it will take effect on the next reload. If you go back to an IOS 3.xE release, your boot loader will not be downgraded. The updated boot loader supports all previous IOS 3.xE releases.
For subsequent IOS XE 16.x.x releases, if there is a new bootloader in that release, it may be automatically upgraded based on the hardware version of the switch when you boot up your switch with the new image for the first time.
Caution Do not power cycle your switch during the upgrade.
Table 6 Automatic Boot Loader Response
Scenario
Automatic Boot Loader Response
If you boot Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.2, or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.3, or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.4, or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.4a, or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.5, or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.6, or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.7, or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.8,
or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.9,
or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.10
for the first time
The boot loader may be upgraded to version 4.66. For example:
BOOTLDR: CAT3K_CAA Boot Loader (CAT3K_CAA-HBOOT-M) Version 4.66, RELEASE SOFTWARE (P)
If the automatic boot loader upgrade occurs, while booting, you will see the following on the console:
%IOSXEBOOT-Tue-###: (rp/0): Oct 17 13:07:19 Universal 2017 PLEASE DO NOT POWER CYCLE ### BOOT LOADER UPGRADING 4
During an IOS image upgrade or downgrade on a PoE or UPoE switch, the microcode is updated to reflect applicable feature enhancements and bug fixes. Do not restart the switch during the upgrade or downgrade process.
With the Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.x.x and the Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.x.x releases, it takes approximately an additional 4 minutes to complete the microcode upgrade in addition to the normal reload time. The microcode update occurs only during an image upgrade or downgrade on PoE or UPoE switches. It does not occur during switch reloads or on non-PoE switches.
The following console messages are displayed during microcode upgrade:
Front-end Microcode IMG MGR: found 4 microcode images for 1 device.

Step 5 If you said ‘Yes’ to the prompt in software install and your switches are configured with auto boot, the stack will automatically boot up with the new image. If not, you can manually boot flash:packages.conf
switch: boot flash:packages.conf
Note When you boot the new image, it will automatically update the boot loader.
Step 6 When the new image boots up, you can verify the version of the new image, by checking show version
Step 7 After you have successfully installed the image, you no longer need the.bin image and the file can be deleted from flash of each switch if it was copied to flash.
Upgrading from Cisco IOS XE 3.xE to Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.x.x, or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.x in Bundle Mode
Follow these instructions to upgrade from Cisco IOS XE 3.xE to Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.x.x, or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.x in bundle mode:
Copy New Image to Stack
Note You cannot boot Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.x.x or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.x.x via TFTP for the first time with a Cisco IOS XE 3.xE boot loader. The Cisco IOS XE 3.xE boot loaders have a limitation, which prevents the booting of an image larger than 400MB via the TFTP server. Since Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.x.x and Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.x.x images are larger than 400MB, you must boot the image via flash.
Step 1 Make sure your TFTP server is reachable from IOS via GigabitEthernet0/0.
Switch# show run | i tftp
ip tftp source-interface GigabitEthernet0/0
ip tftp blocksize 8192
Switch#
Switch# show run | i ip route vrf
ip route vrf Mgmt-vrf 5.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 5.30.0.1

Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 5.28.11.250, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/2 ms
Step 2 Copy the image from your TFTP server to flash.
Step 9 If your switches are configured with auto boot, the stack will automatically boot up with the new image. If not, you can manually boot flash: cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.06.01a.SPA.bin
Move from Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.x.x Bundle Mode to Install Mode
Step 11 Ensure you have enough space in flash to expand a new image by cleaning up old installation files. This command will erase your Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.x.x bin image file, so ensure that you copy it to your Active again.
Note Use the switch all option to clean up all switches in your stack.
Switch# request platform software package clean switch all file flash:
373203016 bytes copied in 80.662 secs (4626927 bytes/sec)
Switch#
Step 13 Use the request platform software package expand switch all file flash:image.bin auto-copy command to expand the target image to flash and move from bundle mode to install mode. You can point to the source image on your TFTP server or in flash if you have it copied to flash.
Note Use the switch all option to upgrade all switches in your stack Use the auto-copy option to copy the.bin image from flash: to all other switches in your stack
Step 15 Edit the boot variable to point to the new image.
Switch(config)# boot system flash:packages.conf
Step 16 Use the write memory command to save the configuration change.
Switch# write memory
Step 17 Use the show boot command to confirm that your boot variable is pointing to the new image
Switch# show boot
---------------------------
Switch 1
---------------------------
Current Boot Variables:
BOOT variable = flash:packages.conf;
Boot Variables on next reload:
BOOT variable = flash:packages.conf;
Manual Boot = yes
Enable Break = yes
Switch#
Reload
Step 18 Reload the switch
Switch# reload
Step 19 If your switches are configured with auto boot, the stack will automatically boot up with the new image. If not, you can manually boot flash:packages.conf
switch:boot flash:packages.conf
Step 20 When the new image boots up, you can verify the version of the new image, by checking show version
373203016 bytes copied in 80.662 secs (4626927 bytes/sec)
Switch#
Step 3 Use the dir flash command to confirm that the image has been successfully copied to flash.
Switch# dir flash:*.bin
Directory of flash:/
32339 -rw- 373217171 May 26 2017 13:52:53 -07:00 cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.06.01.SPA.bin
1562509312 bytes total (731021312 bytes free)
Switch#
Set Boot Variable
Step 4 Use the boot system flash:packages.conf command to set the boot variable.
Switch(config)# boot system flash:packages.conf
Switch(config)# exit
Use the write memory command to save boot settings.
Switch# write memory
Use this command to verify BOOT variable = flash:packages.conf
Switch# show boot system
Software Install Image to Flash
Step 5 Use the request platform software package install switch all file flash: new auto-copy command to install the target image to flash. We recommend copying the image to a TFTP server or the flash drive of the active switch.
If you point to an image on the flash or USB drive of a member switch (instead of the active), you must specify the exact flash or USB drive - otherwise installation fails. For example, if the image is on the flash drive of member switch 3:
Switch# request platform software package install switch all file flash-3:cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.03.05.SPA.bin new auto-copy
[3]: Copying flash-3: cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.03.05.SPA.bin from switch 3 to switch 1 2 4
<output truncated>

Step 7 After you have successfully installed the image, you no longer need the.bin image. If you copied the file to flash
1. Enter the dir flash:*.bin command to check if it is still saved in the the flash of each switch.
2. If an image is still saved, you can delete it, if not, it has been deleted as part of the install operation and you can skip this step.
Switch# dir flash:*.bin

Step 9 If the switch is configured with auto boot, then the stack automatically boots up with the new image. If not, you can manually boot flash:packages.conf
switch:boot flash:packages.conf
Step 10 When the new image boots up, you can verify the version of the new image, by using the show version command:
Upgrading or Downgrading from Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.x to a Cisco IOS XE 16.x.x Release in Install Mode
Follow these instructions to upgrade from Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.x to a future Cisco IOS XE 16.x.x release in Install mode, or to downgrade from Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.x to an earlier Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.x.x or Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.x.x release in install mode. Sample output in the example is of an upgrade scenario; the same steps apply when you downgrade as well.
Clean Up
Step 1 Ensure you have enough space in flash to expand a new image by cleaning up old installation files.
Use the switch all option to clean up all switches in your stack.

Switch# show boot system
Software Install Image to Flash
Step 5 Use the request platform software package install switch all file flash: auto-copy command to install the target image to flash. We recommend copying the image to a TFTP server or the flash drive of the active switch.
If you point to an image on the flash or USB drive of a member switch (instead of the active), you must specify the exact flash or USB drive - otherwise installation fails. For example, if the image is on the flash drive of member switch 3:
Switch# request platform software package install switch all file flash-3:cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.03.05.SPA.bin new auto-copy

Note When you downgrade to a Cisco IOS XE 3.xE image, your boot loader will remain updated, and will automatically be downgraded. The new boot loader can support booting both Cisco IOS XE 3.x releases as well as Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.x.x and Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.x.x releases..
Step 10 When the new image boots up, you can verify the version of the new image, by checking show version
Move from Cisco IOS XE 3.xE Bundle Mode to Install Mode
Step 11 Ensure you have enough space in flash to expand a new image by cleaning up old installation files. This command will erase your Cisco IOS XE 3.xE bin image file, so ensure that you copy it to your Active again.

Feature Sets
The Cisco Catalyst 3650 Series Switches supports three different feature sets:
LAN Base feature set—Provides basic Layer 2+ features, including access control lists (ACLs) and quality of service (QoS), up to 255 VLANs, support for routing protocols (Routing Information Protocol (RIP), Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), Policy-Based Routing (PBR), Protocol Independent Multicast Stub Routing (PIM Stub Routing) with IPv4 and IPv6, and routed access with IPv4 and IPv6 (OSPF — up to 1000 routes, Multicast — up to 1000 routes).
IP Base feature set—Provides Layer 2+ and basic Layer 3 features (enterprise-class intelligent services). These features include access control lists (ACLs), quality of service (QoS), static routing, Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) stub routing, IP multicast routing, RIP, basic IPv6 management, the OSPF Protocol (for routed access only). The license supports up to 4094 VLANs.
IP Services feature set—Provides a richer set of enterprise-class intelligent services and full IPv6 support. It includes IP Base features plus Layer 3 routing (IP unicast routing and IP multicast routing). The IP Services feature set includes protocols such as the EIGRP, OSPF Protocol. The license supports up to 4094 VLANs.
For more information about the features, see the product data sheet at this URL:
Control Plane Policing (CoPP)—Starting with Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.4, the show run command does not display information about classes configured under system-cpp policy, when they are left at default values. Use the show policy-map system-cpp-policy or the s how policy-map control-plane commands in privileged EXEC mode instead.
Smart Install—The feature is deprecated starting with Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.5.1a. The commands are visible on the CLI until Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.1, but the feature is not supported. Enter the no vstack command in global configuration mode and disable the feature. Starting from Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.2, the vstack command is not available on the CLI.
Limitations for YANG data modeling—A maximum of 20 simultaneous NETCONF sessions are supported.
Restrictions for QoS:
– When configuring QoS queuing policy, the sum of the queuing buffer should not exceed 100%.
– For QoS policies, only switched virtual interfaces (SVI) are supported for logical interfaces.
– QoS policies are not supported for port-channel interfaces, tunnel interfaces, and other logical interfaces.
Starting with Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.3.1, Centralized Management Mode (CMM) is no longer supported.
MSE 8.x is not supported with Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.x.x.
WIPs is not supported with Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.x.x since the CMX WIPs solution is not available.
You cannot configure NetFlow export using the Ethernet Management port (GigabitEthernet0/0).
The maximum committed information rate (CIR) for voice traffic on a wireless port is 132 Mb/sec.
Flex Links are not supported. We recommend that you use spanning tree protocol (STP) as the alternative.
Outdoor access points are supported only when they are in Local mode.
Restrictions for Cisco TrustSec:
– Dynamic SGACL download is limited to 6KB per destination group tag (DGT).
– Cisco TrustSec 802.1x is not supported.
– Cisco TrustSec Critical Auth is not supported.
– Cisco TrustSec can be configured only on physical interfaces, not on logical interfaces.
– Cisco TrustSec for IPv6 is not supported.
– Cisco TrustSec cannot be configured on a pure bridging domain with IPSG feature enabled. You must either enable IP routing or disable the IPSG feature in the bridging domain.
VLAN Restriction: It is advisable to have well-defined segregation while defining data and voice domain during switch configuration and to maintain a data VLAN different from voice VLAN across the switch stack. If the same VLAN is configured for data and voice domains on an interface, the resulting high CPU utilization might affect the device.
When a logging discriminator is configured and applied to a device, memory leak is seen under heavy syslog or debug output. The rate of the leak is dependent on the quantity of logs produced. In extreme cases, the device may crash. As a workaround, disable the logging discriminator on the device.
When the device is running SCP (Secure Copy Protocol) and SSH cryptographic operations, expect high CPU until the SCP read process is completed. SCP supports file transfers between hosts on a network and uses SSH for the transfer.
Since SCP and SSH operations are currently not supported on the hardware crypto engine, running encryption and decryption process in software causes high CPU. The SCP and SSH processes can show as much as 40 or 50 percent CPU usage, but they do not cause the device to shutdown.
Caveats
Caveats describe unexpected behavior in Cisco IOS releases. Caveats listed as open in a prior release are carried forward to the next release as either open or resolved.
The Bug Search Tool (BST) allows partners and customers to search for software bugs based on product, release, and keyword, and aggregates key data such as bug details, product, and version. The BST is designed to improve the effectiveness in network risk management and device troubleshooting.
