According to this link, which alleges to be from cisco-nsp, an MSFC2 can
hold 256,000 entries in its FIB of which 12,000 are reserved for
Multicast. I do not know if the 12,000 can be set to serve the general
purpose.
The MSFC2 therefore can server 244,000 routes without uRPF turned on.
Any reasonably valid way of predicting when we'll hit 244,000 routes in
the default-free zone?
