[j-nsp] Seeking Input on Rough Scaling for T and M series MPLS PE Terminations

[Truman Boyes]

Hi There,

Depending upon your configurations, the actual scaling figures may  
vary. Here are some figures that should help in rudimentary sizing:  
you can setup 2000 VPLS instances w/ 100k MAC addresses;  you can  
setup 32k CCC connections, and somewhere between 2000 -  6000 routing  
(VRF / virtual routers) instances.

BGP peers, you should be able to get more than 2000+ ... and possibly  
up to 4k depending on how many routes you are exchanging with your  
peers.
