I thought that as soon as you turn MPLS on the flow mode was diabled and you were back to good old packet mode?

Ditto, I was writing basically the same email when I saw your post come through. I got a set of 2350's out of the box running 60% memory utilization, I added a l3 vpn (with 3 routes) and the nice green bar in the web interface changed colors on me.

I know alot of us here have been bitten by this, and the fact that disabling flow mode and reverting to packet does not free up any of the ~ 460MB or so being eaten by fwdd/flowd is insane. I am currently having the "This is a design feature, the pre-alloc is planned" argument with a SE. I have no issue with flow features being added, looks great for branch office use. What is killing be is that flow is not wanted, needed or usable in a small-infra use with multipath and MPLS services, but even disabled flowd is eating half the box memory. 52% memory usable at bootup (bare config) is not sane, and a 1GB 6350 used to be able to handle a few thousand igp routed plus a full table with easy and lots of headroom, now it is at 92%.... I am pushing this w/ account team and support case, please do the same. If enough people complain about the insane resource consumption they might actually fix it. _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
