7.1.4208 Release Notes

The following issue has been fixed in this release.

Aviatrix Transit Gateways with large number of tunnels and running for a long time could encounter an issue where in the IPSec process becomes unresponsive leading to all IPsec tunnels going into a DOWN state. The cause of this is an internal counter reaching its maximum value and overflowing. To recover, the transit gateway needs to be rebooted.

While it is not possible to specify the exact number of tunnels and length of time it would take for the internal counter to overflow, the few customers who encountered this issue had greater than 800 ipsec tunnels on the transit gateway and took three to four months to encounter this issue. The number of ipsec tunnels on the gateway can be seen from Copilot UI under Diagnostics > Cloud Routes > Gateway Routes.

Aviatrix Edge Gateways deployed on Equinix Network Edge and certain VMware environments may experience issues with root disk resizing during initial setup. The root filesystem might not expand to utilize the full allocated disk space. This can prevent essential cloud-init modules from executing properly.

Affected Versions:

Workaround:

Customers running Aviatrix Edge Gateways on Equinix Edge or VMware environments with version 7.1.4191 should contact Aviatrix Support for assistance.

In the CoPilot UI, Groups > SmartGroups and Groups > ExternalGroups with multiple filters may not appear as originally configured after being saved. This issue occurs when creating groups with multiple sets of any resource type. While policy enforcement is correct, the UI may display missing or merged filter sets, leading to ambiguity and confusion during review or editing.

Affected Scenario:

Workaround:

There is no workaround at this time. If possible, avoid using multiple filter sets in a single group until the issue is resolved.

IPSec diagnostics in the Controller UI do not display logs for non-Equinix Edge Gateways (such as AEP or self-managed Edge Gateways). When accessing the diagnostics page for these gateways, the IPSec log section may appear empty, even if IPSec tunnels are operating correctly.

This issue affects visibility into tunnel-level logs and may complicate troubleshooting efforts.

Affected Scenario:

Workaround:

Use tunnel status and statistics to verify IPSec operation.

Note:

This is a UI diagnostic issue only. IPSec tunnel functionality is not impacted.

When deploying Edge Gateways using images g3-202504251522 and g3-202504251525, the root disk may be incorrectly sized after the VM boots and the ZTP (Zero Touch Provisioning) process runs. Even if the VM is created with a 64GB disk, the root filesystem may be limited to only 12GB.

This may lead to insufficient storage for certain workloads or during upgrades.

Affected Scenario:

Workaround:

Manual resizing of the root partition and filesystem is required. Please contact Aviatrix Support for assistance, as this step cannot be performed independently.
