Hello-
A quick google didn't help; is there a way to tell how much space you
have left in your FIB [absolute RAM, percentage, whatever], specifically
for an MX with DPCs?
I am contemplating activating cymru fullbogons [v4/v6]. We currently
carry about 350,000k v4 and 5000k v6 routes.
While initially I'm not worried, my gut tells me the v6 fullbogons feed
will not be sustainable as it is already at 30k route for ~5k active v6
announcements. While their template doesn't suggest so, I plan to put
in ingress prefix-limit maximum on their sessions to something 'reasonable'.
If I activate this, I'm hoping there is a better way to find out than
the hard way [frantic syslogs when the FIB is full].
