I'm maintaining a network for a customer, it is hub and spoke design,
the spoke links are 802.1q VLANs to the hub, no VPN.
The hub router is a 2621 with 64MB of memory.
The customer has few hundred PCs at different sites, now they are infected
with something that is scanning the world for more machines to infect.
The hub router is running out of processor memory, withing about 10
minutes after reboot it has:
Head Total(b) Used(b) Free(b) Lowest(b) Largest(b)
Processor 81669824 31025116 28080224 2944892 79752 50052
I/O 3400000 12582912 1981184 10601728 10571664 10573980
If I try to enable CEF I get:
%DCEF not supported with 802.1q encapsulation on subinterface
%CEF not supported with 802.1q encapsulation on subinterface
Is there anything that can be done to prevent this? Would a bigger router
be better?
