<div dir="ltr"><div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">Hello,</font></div><div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">I am trying to work out what happens if I hit the CAM hard limit and if my project is doable.</font></div>
<div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">I am considering running 8 eBGP sessions with full-route on each (approx. 3'500'000 prefixes expected). As far as I could figure out, the CAM limit depends on the CAM profile. The XMR seems to support 1M IPv4 prefixes in ipv4 profile mode and 512K on MLX. These figures are according to “CAM partition profiles” of the MLX Configuration Manual.</font></div>
<div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">1) What is BR-MLX-MR2-M considered to be and which limit would apply to that part?</font></div><div><span style="font-family:'trebuchet ms',sans-serif">2) What happens when the limit is reached?</span><br>
</div><div><span style="font-family:'trebuchet ms',sans-serif">3) If it simply can't work what am I supposed to do to run 3.5M v4 prefixes? </span><br></div><div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif"><br></font></div>
<div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">I know the question has been asked previously, but I didn't find any mention of the above part, neither did I find the "consequences" of hiting the documentation limit.</font></div>
<div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">Any hint most welcome.</font></div><div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">--- Alex</font></div></div>
