ESR 6300 does not respond to ICMP packet when using 802.3 Frame Type

Hi all,

I run a simple ping test on ESR 6300. I have a problem when using 802.3 frame type.

I am using the latest firmware version as mentioned below:

Router#show version
Cisco IOS XE Software, Version 17.14.01a
Cisco IOS Software [IOSXE], ISR Software (ARMV8EL_LINUX_IOSD-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 17.14.1a, RELE)

I use the default configuration of the device, except set the IP address from dhcp to the vlan1 interface. (192.168.8.248/24). Test device's ip address is 192.168.8.5/24.

If I use 802.3 frame type, this entry in the arp table is set as SNAP type and ESR 6300 does not respond. 

Router#show ip arp
Protocol Address Age (min) Hardware Addr Type Interface
Internet 192.168.8.1 153 e4f0.0492.e09a ARPA Vlan1
Internet 192.168.8.5 1 0080.1693.a1f2 SNAP Vlan1
Internet 192.168.8.248 - ecc0.182c.1cf4 ARPA Vlan1
Router#


If I change the ethernet type to DIX (Ethernet II), the arp type is now set to ARPA and ESR 6300 can respond.

Does this mean that the ESR 6300 does not support 802.3 frame? Or is there a problem with ARP packets processed using SNAP encapsulation?

Has anyone had this problem before?
Thanks.
