Known Issues and Limitations#

ID Issue or Limitation Description GitHub / Salesforce Reference (if any) Workaround (if any) Affected Software Variants, Hardware, Modes, Host Interfaces
1209958 The Zigbee + OpenThread + BLE RCP may stop working in endurance testing (~2 hours) on MG24 and MG21 devices with constant and concurrent traffic on all three stacks. N/A None Zigbee + OpenThread + BLE RCP app
1385052 Coex-enabled RCP may still occasionally transmit TX ACK after losing the Grant even when Acking is disabled and TX Abort is enabled. N/A This will be fixed in future releases. Coex-enabled RCP
1385486 TX from coex-enabled RCP may infrequently happen without the request after turning on the non-802.15.4 compliant MAC Holdoff coex option. N/A This will be fixed in future releases. Coex-enabled RCP
1457086 Coex-enabled EFR32MG24 RCP may sometimes output higher than expected grant denied counts in the PTA counters. N/A This will be fixed in future releases. Coex-enabled RCP
1458795 Using BLE GAP scanning stop command in the Zigbee DMP GP - Proxy app may not be able to stop BLE scanning on certain parts. N/A None Zigbee DMP GP - Proxy app
1514786 Wi-Fi coexistence on SixG301 is currently not supported.
Other references: 1514794, 1515385.		 N/A This will be supported in future releases. SixG301 devices
1569847 Using the CMP Zigbee NCP + OpenThread RCP application with Bi-directional Green Power support, bi-directional commissioning may intermittently fail. N/A None EFR32xG24 devices
