Hmmm, this sounds .. a bit crap. Did you find any docs on this? I'm having trouble finding useful references. I have a network of J and SRX boxes -- everything from J2320 up to SRX5800 -- and I'd like to run BFD for OSPF (on IPsec tunnels). Our data centre routers (the srx5ks) have about 100 tunnels each, so I'd need 100 BFD sessions. How many BFD sessions was your customer running, and was it actually causing a problem? (high RE/control plane processor utilisation, I guess?) Did you end up using BFD anyway, or tuning the IGP, or .. ? cheers, Dale _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
