Hi Rohit, I would like to send you a quick update on this issue. I have recently upgraded to 4.11.1.0 with the new system vm templates. The issue that I've described is still present in the latest release. Hasn't it been included in the latest 4.11 maintenance release? I thought that it would be as it breaks the major function of the VPC.
Cheers.
