Hi, I've got a BI15000 equipped with a B4GMR4 running 07.7.01T53.
I've just added it's 49th and 50th BGP sessions to it, but they remain stuck in the IDLE stack. If I do a 'clear ip bgp nei x.y.z.w' then the state briefly changes to IDLE* and then back to IDLE. The neighbor configuration is identical to the other working sessions, and the next-hop is reachable and directly connected. It has 283MB of RAM free, and there isn't anything unusual in the logs. As I recall when I recently added it's 48th BGP session it stayed in the IDLE state for 5 minutes before establishing. Has anyone got any suggestions as to what's wrong?

Any idea what the neighbour is? Anything interesting or odd in the logs on the neighbour device? Foundry used to have an insanely aggressive BGP scanner. Maybe they have toned it down a bit, and in doing so, gone ultra conservative?
