Hi,

thanks for the hint, didn't know about that option. This will certainly 
safe us if we are running in to limits. We don't have too many filters, 
mostly the basic stuff to protect the RE and a few filters on some vlans 
with basic white- and/or blacklisting. So really nothing fance although 
I have no idea mow many "many" filters are on a box like the MX. Is it 
1,000 terms or more like 1,000,000 terms?


Best,
Jeff

DPC was EOL a while ago, and everything has been Trio (and now Trio-NG on the new -NG cards coming out now). As the FIB is pushed to hardware, it may be some silly DPC thing you're running into.

Rest of our network is now on 12.3R8 or 13.3 in many cases. (lots of BFD bugs have been squashed, some HQoS issues fixed, host-outbound-traffic for BFD keepalives now honour the c-o-s knobs, and are finally out of Queue 3 and into the Queue we want (7), etc... preventing starvation if you happen to have re-used Queue 3 as "not-so-high" priority, etc)... the list goes on.
