FSVO tens Gbps and easily. I think INTC is quoting DPDK for hundreds of Gbps for latest XEONs. But everything depends on what you're actually doing, as it's run-to-completion it has highly variant pps performance depending on what is being done. Do you have filters? How large FIB? uRPF? 10Gbps

There are x86 based routing platforms doing many tens of Gbps easily in software. Things like vpp.io, DPDK, and others are driving things like FRR, Cumulus, and now TNSR drastically forward. On Tue, Apr 10, 2018, 10:40 AM wrote: > On 04/09/2018 08:07 PM, Chris via

Mike, For 20K you can get a new MX204 (not to be confused with MX240). However, I don't think the MX204 support CGNAT if needed, but I could be wrong. But I wouldn't touch a MX80 or MX104 if buying new. On Mon, Apr 9, 2018 at 8:45 PM, wrote: > Greetings, > > I

I have found the licensing costs on the MX104 to be pretty ridiculous. I can buy a brand new MX204 with plenty of 10Gbps interfaces for cheaper than it would be up upgrade the "base" MX104 (MX104-MX5 bundle) to enable the four of the built-in 10Gbps interfaces and additional chassis throughput.

Many thanks Graham. I see this works on 15.1F6 at least, and might in fact prove useful for us. Br, Niall From: Graham Brown [mailto:juniper-...@grahambrown.info] Sent: 09 April 2018 10:14 To: Niall Donaghy Cc: Saku Ytti ; juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net

[j-nsp] VXLAN, BGP EVPN, remote VTEP

2018-04-10 Thread Vincent Bernat
Hey! I am noticing an odd behaviour when using BGP EVPN on a vQFX: it assumes that all VTEP have all the local VNIs. For example, on the local system, I have VNI 654, 655 and 656. However, on the remote VTEP, I have only 654 and 655. However, the local system still assumes VNI 656 should be
