OPERATIONAL DEFECT DATABASE
...
...
- Customer has ITD configuration , when the customer ssh/telenet to VIP , it is not working , as the TCP Syn reaches to the Destination but the destination never replies with TCP Syn ACK due to invalid checksum - If the Customer ping VIP then it tries to ssh/telenet it works fine.
- version 8.3(1) - Platform Nexus7700
Ping the VIP then do SSh/Telnet. Remove the NAT ITD and do direct ssh.
