Hi Scott,

A while back I did some testing with a BD6808 running BGP with a Cisco 
router.  When the full routing table was transmitted to the BD, it became
unresponsive for a lengthy period of time, and never seemd to fully 
recover.

BGP with a limited number of routes seems to work fine - we have been
running a couple BDs with default route only for a while with no
stability issues.

This is with an Extreme software revision from maybe 8-12 months
ago, so maybe they have improved things since.
