Hi That is definitely not a normal behavior. Especially if you have no filters, it should be orders of magnitude faster. You wrote you receive 106k prefixes from the non-client, do you also receive prefixes from clients? Are you sure that BIRD was working full-time (full single core cpu load) during that 35 minutes? If you monitor number of received routes during that time (using 'show route count table vpntab4' or 'show protocols all <non_client_neighbor>'), you can see if all these prefixes are already here or if they arrive continuously dyring that time. -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'Santiago' Zajicek (email: [email protected]) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
