Hi all, More bgpd problems last night :( This happened last night on two of our routers. One running an old version of OpenBSD (4.3) and one running 5.1. Is there anyone out there actually using bpgd in production? How do you deal with it quitting everytime something unexpected happens on the network?
The first message below seems to indicate unable to allocate memory. I'm running these boxes pretty much stock having not tuned any parameters at all. Both are just running routing daemons (bgpd, ospf) and the 4.3 box is running OpenVPN. There are no applications running and both boxes have plenty of RAM (4GB) and not using any swap or anything. Is there something I should look at tuning in terms of memory allocation in order to stop this happening?
