Condition: This rare condition may occur with Fabric Loop (FL) port after many resets. The port may get into "Port failed due to busy buffer stuck error" state. Recovery: Reboot switch to recover; portdisable/port enable does not recover. Defect ID: DEFECT000491049 Technical Severity: Medium Product: FOS Technology: Distance Reported In Release: FOS7.2.0 Technology Area: Extended Fabrics Symptom: When WAN-side-failover-cable-pulls are performed with ISL-Inflight-Encryption "on", OLS counters are incremented. Condition: When ISL-Inflight-Encryption is turned "on" and the WAN cable is pulled, there is a possibility of frames getting dropped, which may result in credits not being returned, leading to a Link Reset.
