It does have a single command to report global NPU load as percentage, which is a gross simplification but useful. Like you can see that as you keep piling IPv6 EH, global load approaches 100%, until eventually the stack is too deep, and packet gets dropped outright, and global load plummets. Usually people operating these think it's binary, either it works or it doesn't, but as it is run-to-completion, everything adds up, which is why we always get unsatisfying answers from vendors to our scaling questions, no one really knows, it's too complicated. More in depth requires checking what ucode instructions PPEs are running, how long are they spending on them etc, but this is more after you already have unexpectedly high global NPU load, and you want to figure out why and how to address. -- ++ytti _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
