I /think/ (not 100% sure) that the 5k only supports 256 statistic entries, so it sounds like when you add the other ACL, with stats per-entry enabled we run out of space for the stats. I think you'll have to disable the stats to add the second ACL. On Tue, Oct 22, 2013 at 6:13 AM, Oswald, Thomas

Classic redistribution race condition. Notice in the failed state that the BGP table shows two routes, one from the ISP and one that is locally sourced ( from 0.0.0.0weight 32768). What happens is that BGP is picking a best route and only presenting that single route up to the routing table.
