I don't think you can turn it off in JunOS. So they'd have to change code anyhow, at which point, I'd rather take translation than static config. > (I had to use it in the past due to ARP and ND bugs at peering routers, > so I know "it works for a small number of entries" - no idea if it would > scale, or whether Cisco properly programs static ARP into HW right > away, or just uses it for lookups when punting) It does get programmed into HW adjacency. And while I'm asking for things that won't happen. Give us 'point-to-point' ethernet. If you configure 'point-to-point' keyword in interface, it'll just use all-zero MACs or some reserved MAC and never punts for ARP. There are shops who don't have L2 aggregation anywhere at all, and most of us don't have any of it in backbone infra. Should be very easy change, maybe phase2, drop DMAC+SMAC entirely, giving us 3 free MPLS label at same MTU as edge, so we dont need overspeed to handle 1GE of edge traffic at small size. -- ++ytti _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
