Re: [j-nsp] SRX Dynamic Address limits

2024-03-01 Thread Eric Harrison via juniper-nsp
I don't know if this is relevant or not in regards to the srx345, but I
recently stress tested a srx4100 and started to notice some
anomalies around 64k prefixes. I don't recall anything being logged and it
reported that it loaded all >=64k prefixes, "show security match-policies"
gave the right answers, but some actual test traffic started to be logged
on an unexpected policy.  Opening a ticket is on the TODO list.


One of our production srx4100's currently has 53k dynamic IPv4 prefixes w/o
skipping a beat:

> show security dynamic-address summary
.
Instance Name  : default
Total number of IPv4 entries   : 232848
Total number of IPv4 entries from feed : 53445
Total number of IPv6 entries   : 0
Total number of IPv6 entries from feed : 0

Re: [j-nsp] MX304 - Edge Router

2023-10-25 Thread Eric Harrison via juniper-nsp
Yes indeed having dhcp-relay by default trigger scale-l2tp -- a licensed
subscriber management feature -- is quite annoying.

"set forwarding-options dhcp-relay forward-only" will turn off that
licensing requirement.  IIRC there were scalpel knobs to accomplish the
same, we opted for the hammer knob.
