Hey Matthew,
There are *several* caveats to doing dynamic monitoring and remapping of flows; one of the biggest challenges is that it puts extra demands on the line cards tracking the flows, especially as the number of flows rises to large values. I recommend reading
https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos/topics/topic-map/load-bala...
before configuring it.
You are confusing two features. Stateful and adaptive. I was proposing adaptive, which just remaps the table, which is free, it is not flow aware. Amount of flow results is very small bound number, amount of states is very large unbound number.
Ah, apologies--you are right, I scanned down the linked document too quickly, thinking it was a single set of configuration notes. Thanks for setting me straight on that. Matt
