So our core is BGPv4-free, as traffic is all MPLS forwarded. We do,
however, hold the IPv6 BGP table in the core.
At any rate, that many number of full table sessions on the MX104 is
scary. I'd seriously consider another option sooner rather than later.
If your forwarding requirements are simple, you're likely to get away
with whatever fast, cheap Broadcom-based router Cisco, Arista or Juniper
are pushing out today. But, test, test, test. Broadcom chips for service
routers is tricky; but could be more forgiving for a simple core function.
Mark.
