GENERAL FIXED ISSUES

RADIUS authentication can fail to correctly send packets to the RADIUS server when AMI is configured (present since CS 16)
GENERAL KNOWN ISSUES
DHCP options longer than 180 characters may fail to be configured on the device resulting in the configuration being reverted (always present)

Meraki native switches move LACP ports to an active forwarding state if configured. This can cause loops when connecting to an MS390 or other Catalyst switch unless the bundles are configured on the Catalyst side first. All Meraki native ports are configured in passive LACP mode so that loops do not occur between Meraki native switches (always present)
Switches may fail to fully initialize after initial onboarding and migration. Devices encountering this will require an RMA (always present)
