Hi, I am trying to find the number of routes that an ASR1002-F (embedded ESP2.5) and an ASR-1002 with ESP5 can handle.
The Cisco data sheet [1] indicates that the ESP5 can handle "500,000 IPv4 and 125,000 IPv6 routes" but does not mention the ESP2.5. A post [2] by Arie Vayner from Cisco seems to contradict the data sheet "For the 1002F, we use ESP2.5, which has, in general, 50% of the capacity of a ESP5, hence the 500K IPv4 routes." This makes me think that the ESP5 should be able to handle 1,000,000 IPv4 routes. I'm not sure if the ASR1000s will give a useful answer to "show platform hardware capacity forwarding" If they do and you have one of either the ASR1002-F or ASR-1002 with ESP5, please will you let me know the "L3 Forwarding Resources" results from that command? Finally, is the resource split between IPv4 and IPv6 fixed or can more resources be reserved for IPv4 routes? Thanks in advance, David [1] http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/routers/ps9343/data_sheet_c78-450070.html [2] http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg29517.html _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
