I am considering running 8 eBGP sessions with full-route on each
(approx. 3'500'000 prefixes expected). As far as I could figure out,
the CAM limit depends on the CAM profile. The XMR seems to support
1M IPv4 prefixes in ipv4 profile mode and 512K on MLX. These figures
are according to "CAM partition profiles" of the MLX Configuration
Manual.
Prefixes from your 8 eBGP sessions will form your RIB. The best
routes are then placed into the FIB. That's where you may hit CAM
partitioning limits.
I'm not quite sure what the limit on RIB size is but 3.5M will fit
just fine memory-wise in an XMR Management Module.
