Instance 1
When the customer was using v4.24, he was able to run 60 devices on 3 ports on 1G DX blade ( 180 total devices) and 60 devices on 3 ports on 10G DX blade (180 total devices) . The traffic is sent using each device at a very low rate ( 1% of 1G ). This configuration has been used by the customer for close to a year with no issues.
After upgrading to v4.42, customer is able to load config but gets a "Out of memory messages" when we try to start traffic and then all ports go offline.
The cards have to be rebooted to recover and then reload configs.
Customer has also tried to scale down the devices and sending traffic on to only 30 streams per port. With this config the customer do not get the out of memory message.
