Hi Jonas, thanks for your prompt answer.

The weird thing is that looks like my memory is OK:

someuser at some-router> show chassis ssb
SSB status:
Slot 0 information:
  State                                 Master
  Temperature                        41 degrees C / 105 degrees F
  CPU utilization                    10 percent
  Interrupt utilization               0 percent
  Heap utilization                   34 percent
  Buffer utilization                 51 percent
  Total CPU DRAM                     64 MB
  Internet Processor II                 Version 1, Foundry IBM, Part
number 9
  Start time:                           2008-09-15 10:23:24 BRT
  Uptime:                              10 days, 7 hours, 33 seconds
Slot 1 information:
  State                                 Backup

Since you faced this problem in the past, do you know wich commands I
can use in order to be sure if this is lack of memory?

Thank you.

Thiago Drechsel

Hello,

as Nicolaj already pointed out, you are short on memory (heap or sram
but most likely heap) on your SSB. Time to buy some EDO ram or go with a
-E16 (much more expensive). See:

Jonas
