There is nothing stopping vendors from implementing netflow and SNMP in HW, allowing instant refresh of octet counters. Netflow often is already implemented in HW. By exporting this data in interface not connected to hardware forwarding you cannot capitalize on these features, as you must first transport the data to software and potentially congest the control-plane. And as Jeff mentioned, you cannot do CoPP to protect your RE from being congested by fxp0 traffic. Something simple and easy mistake to do as L2 loop in FXP0 could be disaster, and no way to protect. -- ++ytti _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
