Hello,
I was wondering if anyone on this list might know the maximum number of
route updates that can be sent in a BGP Update message. Alternatively, it
would be nice to know the max length of the NLRI portion of the message.
I am trying to configure Class-based-weighted-fair-queueing (CBWFQ), and I
would like to work out how much bandwidth I need to assign to a BGP class
match. We are currently grabbing the entire table of 106+K routes, and
would like to do this as a preventative measure.
Any help would be appreciated,
Tim Devries
