Symptoms

Executing the "copy running-config startup-config" command does not resolve the issue, as the discrepancy persists even after attempting the copy operation. 
This a part of Cisco Bug ID CSCwo14155. 

`show running-config`
feature nxapi
nxapi http port 8080

`show startup-config`
feature nxapi
nxapi http port 8080

 

Post upgrade to 9.4(2a)  
  

`show running-config`
feature nxapi
nxapi http port 8080
nxapi ssl protocols TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2



`show startup-config`
feature nxapi
nxapi http port 8080
nxapi ssl protocols TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2

Cause

This is a cosmetic bug seen only on MDS-9706 while upgrading from 8.4(2a) to 9.4(2a).

Resolution

Workaround:

Disable and enable of feature NXAPI resolves the issue. Below is the Syntax:

#no feature nxapi
#copy r s
#sh run diff 
#feature nxapi
# nxapi http port 8080 
#nxapi ssl protocols TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2
#copy r s
#sh run diff

 

NOTE: This are non-disruptive commands. 

Permanent fix is awaited from Cisco Development team.
