Thanks Erik,

That works for me.
Below exactly what I did:

1. login on router
2. #enable
3. #config terminal
4. (config)# show default value

~~ search for the parameter "ip-route" ~~
(my config it was limited on 140000.)

To upgrade the maximum ip routes to 200000 you need to do the following:

5. (config)# system-max ip-route 200000
6. (config)# write memory
7. (config)# exit
8. #reload

Kind regards,
Armand
