[c-nsp] Router memory problem

See, there could be a silver lining. :-)

Got the commands in...

router bgp xxxx
  distribute-list prefix max16 in

ip prefix-list max23 seq 5 permit 0.0.0.0/0 ge 8 le 16

The bgp table seems to be dropping in size over time....

core-gw1.noc#show ip bgp sum
[...]
xx.xxx.xxx.x    4   174  146060     785   707302    0    0 13:00:03   605322

core-gw1.noc#show ip bgp sum
[...]
xx.xxx.xxx.x    4   174  146060     785   707302    0    0 13:00:03   603660

but it's taking a long time. I could clear the bgp tables, but I'm hesitant to do that. Maybe better to just let it drop over time.

Hard to do if you can’t see the config, but I suppose if you are careful you could tftp it in, since you mentioned that’s still working.  On the plus side, if you screw up routing with a mistake, you’ll free a lot of memory :-/
