It looks like some recent aggregation has been helping to slow down the growth. In any case, I've got 48MB (out of 128MB) free with 2 full views and very little else (a few ACLs, OSPF) on a 7204VXR. On Sat, 14 Jul 2001, Christopher A. Woodfield wrote:
Is there any research out there that tries to estimate how long it will be before BGP routers with 128M of RAM start to choke on the routing table? I know there are a lot of factors - the number of BGP peers, how much "other stuff" the router is doing, etc. - I'm really looking for a ballpark estimate, if one exists.
I'm trying to convince someone NOT to use a Cisco 2650 for BGP multihoming, and my argument will, IMO, be a bit more effective if I can say "you'll need to replace it within X months/years"...
