All,

   My customer setup demands BGP sessions against ~280 Nokia and Cisco routers.

We are facing two different issues:


  1.  Regarding Nokia sessions we haven’t been able to establish sessions using 
TCP MD5 authentication.
Same authentication works fine against Cisco routers.
                Do you know if there is any specific configuration to support 
Nokia BGP sessions or I can take for granted that is a Nokia configuration 
issue ?
Nokia BGP configuration is the one recommended by the vendor.


  1.  For both, Cisco and Nokia, we are facing flaps on BGP sessions. We have 
configured so far 90 sessions.

Server CPU peaks have been observed. PMBGPD cpu consumption peaks are seen from 
20 to 43% of total CPU utilization.

We are considering decreasing the keepalives as an alternative to decrease CPU, 
but 2 questions arise:

  1.  Where can I change BGP keepalive and hold timer on PMACCT side ?
  2.  Is there any CPU vs # PMACCT sessions baseline that I should consider ?

Regards
