From this post: http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/2006-August/032846.html It appears that the magic number, assuming you've tweaked the TCAM appropriately, is somewhere between 244736 to 245546 routes. I'd be interested to see what (if anything) happens when that number is reached.

Are you pinging with DF set? Most PA-FE's I've seen only support an MTU of 1500 bytes. Each device tends to also have a maximum packet size it can handle - even after fragmentation. I've seen some cheap CPE not respond to pings larger than about 8k. Brad Andy Dills wrote: Ok, I have a

I am by no means a fiber expert, but I've been told by old school fiber guys that the RX side is the best place to put them, as the attenuators generate some back reflectance which is best to have as far away from the TX of a GBIC/SFP as possible. -evt -Original Message- From: [EMAIL

One ugly way to do it would be to create an eem applet on both routers which would do the following: 1) watch for syslog messages STANDBY Active-xxx and then decrease the metric of these redistributed connected routes through configuring the local router 2) watch for syslog messages
