[j-nsp] Juniper M7i BGP / memory requirement

[Mark Hagler]

Hello,

I am pretty new to Juniper routers in a BGP environment and am curious if
experienced operators find that the M7's memory limitation of 256m is enough
to run full BGP routing tables with a couple of neighbors.

In a Cisco 7200-series router I would tend to put much more than 256m of
memory on the system to hold full BGP routes from two peers.

Is 256m sufficient?

Thank you for any comments in advance.

Yours,

Mark Hagler
