In Vlan interface with below configuration the input queue gets filled when pumped with IPv6 traffic. All the packets after that gets dropped. The queue doesn't gets clear even when traffic is stopped, what could be the reason.
Also this happens only when ipv6 dhcp server dhcp-lite rapid-commit is configured on vlan interface

Hello lolololol,
you are hitting the following SW bug
CSCvp98800
Symptom:
DHCPV6 solicit packets may get wedged in the interface input queue causing the input queue buffer to get full which will cause subsequent traffic destined to the switch such as ARP for example to get dropped.
Conditions:
Following command was configured on the interface:
ipv6 dhcp server dhcp-lite rapid-commit
Workaround:
Remove following configuration:
ipv6 dhcp server dhcp-lite rapid-commit
affected platform : catalyst 3850
affected releases: IOS XE 16.9.3, Denali 16.3.5, 16.3.7, 16.3.8
status bug: open
removing the command is already the suggested workaround. Look for an IOS upgrade.
Hope to help
Giuseppe
