- Detailed views added to comparison tables.
-# Suspected issues
-
-Issues here are suspected to become known issues when confirmed by release runs.
-The suspicions come from trending and earlier runs (e.g. for RC2).
-This chapter should become empty before RCA is finished.

- 1 | [CSIT-1782](https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1782) | Multicore AVF tests are failing when trying to create interface. Frequency is reduced by CSIT workaround, but occasional failures do still happen.
- 2 | [CSIT-1785](https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1785) | NAT44ED tests failing to establish all TCP sessions. At least for max scale, in allotted time (limited by session 500s timeout) due to worse slow path performance than previously measured and calibrated for. CSIT removed the max scale NAT tests to avoid this issue.
- 3 | [CSIT-1802](https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1802) | All testbeds: AF-XDP - NDR tests failing from time to time on small loss.
