What's the bgp config look like?
Your modules updated properly as well? How about showing us the whole 'show version' with the modules.

Subject: [f-nsp] Router Becomes Unresponsive

Hi, 

I was looking for some feedback on a strange issue. We are performing a router upgrade. On the new gear, when certain BGP peers are established, the router becomes unresponsive via telnet and the network encounters heavy packet loss/latency. CPU shows idle and the log just shows interfaces flapping. Serial access is OK. When you turn these BGP peers down, the issue goes away. When you turn them back up, the issue returns. It is very reproducible. 

Configs are the same. 

Here is our current setup-- 

SL M1: NI-MLX-32_MR Management Module Active (Serial #:, Part #: 35639-300C):
