Raheel,
only the forwarding table built will be copied into the FIB TCAM (plus some overhead possibly, but that can be ignored as far as I can see on our routers).
regards,
Marcus

Dear All,
Thanks for the replies but it looks like i have to upgrade the RSP but can anyone tell me that the limitation is for the routes which will be installed in forwarding table for. e.g. if i am receiving 3 routing tables so it will be 3xlimit or limit will only be for what is installed in the forwarding table.
Regards

Raheel,
I'm not sure about RSP720 models available ad hoc, but based on Sup720 the basic hardware only allows for 256k routes at most. Only having a -XL version allows for 1m of (v4) routes.
Your output only shows 'PFC-3C mode' - which tells the current operational limit is 256k, but doesn't tell about maximum capacity possible in hardware.
If you do have a XL deployed (look for PFC-3CXL in 'sh mod') just follow the hint given in the error message: use 'mls cef maximum-routes' to increase the number of forwarding entries allowed in hardware.
Should you have got a non-XL and RSP720 being equal to Sup720 in regards to capacity (that's the 256k max) you'll need to swap RSP to handle a full BGP table.
Also pay attention to the combination of RSP and DFC's equipped. A XL-RSP will operate in non-XL-mode as soon as even a single non-XL-DFC is installed in the chassis.

Marcus
