Depending on *what* is eating the memory, you might be able to free
enough to get in by shutting down all dynamic routing from the router's
neighbours (like "BGP neighbours shutdown", OSPF interface passive, etc.)

If it's just a bug and there is no free memory / no large enough chunk
left, then you'll need to reboot...
