Hi,

Is anyone able to share the RIB scale for ACX7100 or using it as a 
small peering/transit router (2 x full table)?
While this link

is extremely useful I am finding difficult to find this info in the

Thanks!

Re: [j-nsp] Junos 20 - slow RPD

2022-03-25 Thread Mihai via juniper-nsp
In my case I just upgraded one MX204 in the lab to 21.2R2, enabled 
rib-sharding and increased the JunosVM memory to 24G and things look 
better now.

Hi,
I think that I was the only one with this issue.

Even with a  RE-S-X6-64G.  We have very slow outbound updates. sending a
lot of fullrouting tables to customers may take upto 60 minutes or more
when you
have a lot of BGP groups , for instance, one group per customer ...  and if
the we have an issue with the preferred upstream provider, the customer
routers may me offline
until all updates are sent..

We got new routers and we are going to try Junos 20.4R3 latest service
release with update threading and rib-sharding to see if we get some
improvement, it is better to lost NSR than blackhole
traffic for over an hour..

Hi Saku,

The routes are in VRF so no support for rib-sharding unfortunately.
This MX204 is running 20.2R3-S3 so probably the only option is to try
another version.


We've had some terrible experiences with RPD due to NSR sync. to re1 for
BGP, on an RE-S-1800 running Junos 20.4R3.8. Turns out the code can't
deal with grouping outbound updates to eBGP neighbors at scale for that
RE, which crashes RPD on re1.

The options were to either disable NSR, rewrite our outbound policies
and combine multiple customers in the same outbound group, or get more
memory. We went for the last option.

No more problems on the RE-S-X6-64G.

Juniper have some work to do to optimize the code in these use-cases.

Mark.

Thank you for your time and info, very useful as always.

Hey,


On MX204 with ~4M routes, after upgrading from 18.2 to 20.2 the RPD is
way slower in processing BGP policies and sending the routes to neighbors.
For example, on a BGP group with one neighbor and an export policy
containing 5 terms each matching a community it takes ~1min ( 100% RPD
utilisation ) to send 1k routes to the neighbor in 20.2 compared to 15s
in 18.2.
Disabling terms will reduce the time.

Anyone experienced something similar?


I don't recognise this problem specifically. It seems rather terrible
regression so you probably should either open a JTAC case or do the
Junos dance. If you have a large RIB/FIB ratio allowing more than 1
core to work on BGP will produce improvement:

set system processes routing bgp rib-sharding number-of-shards 4
set system processes routing bgp update-threading

This is a disruptive change. JNPR wanted us on 20.3 (we are on
20.3R3-S2) for rib-sharding, but we did run it previously on 20.2R3-S3
with success. We are currently targeting 21.4R1-S1.

If you have memory pressure, you can expand the default 16GB DRAM to
24GB DRAM via configuration toggle (post 21.2R1). If you are
comfortable hacking QEMU/KVM config manually, you can do it on any
release and can entertain other sizes.
