On the Juniper, check you have enough memory etc left:

show chassis routing-engine

Although from my experience if you run out of memory on Juniper, it
generally just melts horribly.

On the Brocade, you may need to increase the defaults for number
of ip-routes and ip-cache, depending on size of box, may be different.
Do "show default values" to display the maximum settings, and then set
something like:

system-max ip-cache 1048576
system-max ip-route 1048576

(And then you have to reload...)

The default is something around ~250k. (204800)
