Dear Colleagues, OSPF as a PE-CE protocol has some useful features: the "DN bit" for loop prevention and sham links for route optimization. Does IS-IS have similar features? -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN 2:5005/49@fidonet http://vas.tomsk.ru/

--- Begin Message --- Please check the config guide. I am not as familiar w/the 1st gen switches as 2nd gen, but there should be at least some level of reconfigurability of the regions in gen 1. So you may be able to size up the region you want by removing entries from some other region. Yes,

Thanks for clarification, i have noticed when i add 1 rules number bump +1 but i believe you can't go above 510 right? that is hard limit if i am not wrong. also changing in resource required reload. On Wed, Mar 20, 2019 at 2:07 PM Tim Stevenson (tstevens) wrote: > > Yes, ACL lines consume

--- Begin Message --- Yes, ACL lines consume space in the TCAM. TCAM can be recarved according to the features in use/required. As long as the policy fits in the available TCAM space for that feature (software will complain and fail your config if it won't), enforcement is at full rate, no

We use the below, and I measured the reported traffic a few times, sending exactly 1g / 10g files between a known source and destination; it was pretty accurate. You must use routed ports, SVI’s require netflow – which is not an option for you. feature sflow sflow counter-poll-interval 30

--- Begin Message --- Yes, this is 1st gen. The SFLOW/SPAN restriction should not apply there. Re: 60Gbps/24Mpps and SFLOW, SFLOW does not do aggregation of stats for flows in the switch like netflow does - it's just 1-in-n packet sampling. As such, the value of "n" should be high enough that

Good point. We waited for the second Gen Regarding 60 Gbs, isn’t that is the data traffic, not the flows or sampled flows levels? Our NFSEn box is centos 4 vCPU and 4 GBrams Collecting flows from maybe only 30 devices, about 20Gbs and 3k flows per sec. -Original Message- From: Tim

--- Begin Message --- Make sure you distinguish between N9300 (1st generation) and N9300-EX/FX/FX2 (2nd generation). The SFLOW + SPAN limitation applies only to the latter. It's also on the latter that Netflow is supported, which can run concurrently with SPAN sessions. Tim -Original

We use sflow on 9300's, no performance hit - but you cannot use span sessions at the same time. Newer code revisions support netflow, without the SPAN session limitation, although we have not tried netflow on the 9300 yet. For a collector We use NFSEN - opensource, and quite a big install
