Thunderbird just ate my response, grr. BGP full feed on an SRX650 is fine, if you disable flow mode (as much as you can, don't forget the ALG's). BGP with a default inbound and advertising a few routes is fine with firewalling. Combining a full feed with firewalling is a bad idea, at least on the branch kit, and probably the SRK1k and 3k. -- Julien Goodwin Studio442 "Blue Sky Solutioneering"
