Blackholing is absolutely worst thing router can do. And Juniper often seems to have failure modes where they blackhole. In Cisco much more common failure mode is total failure (i.e. crash), which I'm fine with (that low is my expectations for network hardware vendors) as I can route around it. I remember back in the JunOS4 days when Juniper was trying to enter the market, one of the first sales pitches I heard 'you know how GSR drops neighbours and stops forwarding when it runs out of memory?' ... 'well, we just keep on forwarding based on the information we currently have!'. I ran out of hands to properly express the level of facepalm I wanted. -- ++ytti _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
