Hi,

thanks for the hint, didn't know about that option. This will certainly safe us if we are running in to limits. We don't have too many filters, mostly the basic stuff to protect the RE and a few filters on some vlans with basic white- and/or blacklisting. So really nothing fance although I have no idea mow many "many" filters are on a box like the MX. Is it 1,000 terms or more like 1,000,000 terms?


Best,
Jeff

Hi,

The 'route' option on 'memory-enhanced' will give you some time before
upgrade to MPC. Actually you should be okay for quite a long time
considering the size of the table you have at the moment.

Note, that this will use the part of the memory reserved for filters
(Jtree segment 1) for storing route information. You that feature only
if don't have many filters configured.

Ivan,

You'll benefit from the years of "Oh, we finally fixed LLDP ascii decoding" stuff that ends 
up getting traction; plus JTAC would really really like it if you weren't on 11.4 =)

    We've been on 14.2 for a while now, and settling into 14.2R3.8.

    Happy, to be honest. Only real problem is policing on LAG's, but it's
    manageable.

    Mark.
