Re: ROS7 and BGP IPv6 Reflectors, still broken?

It has 209 of them. Thought you could extrapolate from one example, since they’re all the same but for the name and address. Obviously I was wrong.
(also, the snippet above with the outgoing announces shows several peers)

Re: ROS7 and BGP IPv6 Reflectors, still broken?

Shouldn't it be exactly the opposite? An RR (by definition) should propagate learned routes to clients and keep the original next-hop, not replace it with self, which is what is doing here.

ROS7 and BGP IPv6 Reflectors, still broken?

Hello,
trying to set up an IPv6 BGP reflector with ROS 7.17rc3.

Clients get the routes, but next-hop is always set to the reflector itself. Have found posts from 2022 detailing similar issues, but setting next-hop in a filter, as they suggest, is *not* an option. Is this still unfixed, then?

We considered the 2216 as border routers for several months, and always pushed the decision back due to the issues we were seeing with BGP and v7 in other, smaller, set ups.

Re: CCR2216 - Issues

CCR2216 can do hardware offload to 120k IPv4 route4s and about 20k IPv6 routes. Shouldn't it fall back to CPU routing? You don't get to do large amount of traffic with more than 120k destinations at once, so routing the least use with the CPU should be okay-ish. Anyways, if I understand what sirbry...

Re: CCR1072 on 6.49 suddenly stops forwarding traffic on most interfaces

FYI, managed to somewhat reproduce it, it’s definitely heavy traffic related, and only the interfaces with large MTU would lock up, that’s what made sfpp1 different. Still present in 6.49.13.
