AW: [cisco-bba] Real life experience with NPE-G1 aggregation numbers

[Raymond Huber]

Hi,

We have 2 NPE-G1 in 7204 VXR which terminating pppoe and l2tp. 512MB Memory 
At the moment they are handle around 4000 PPPoE Session on 290 L2TP Tunnels
at around 17% CPU load.

The same amount of sessions are on the second stack of 7301 which also have
the same Processor and a Memory of 1GB.
The CPU load is 6% higher.

So the CPU load is hardly related to the IOS Image which is running.

Ok. To your question: 

Once we testet at around 7000 PPPoE Sessions 250 L2TP Tunnels with a load of
58% , this was a 7301 Router. So it seams, that the 16k Sessions are not
possible for our environment.

Cheers
Raymond

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone's got some first hand experience with large
termination numbers for the NPE-G1 processor ??

16K seems to be an idylic number of PPP sessions (PPPoVPDN, PPPoE &
PPPoA)...

Thks,

-Paul
