If a configuration change results massive routing table updates (e.g. changed LOCAL_PREF), it's quite likely that you BGP peering sessions terminate because of a timeout. Other "quirks" are just things that don't work as they should (mostly Cisco incompatibilities, sometimes genuine bugs in route-map support etc.). It's not dramatic in most cases, but like any complex technology, it takes some time to get used to.

You missed the NPE-G1 part. cisco 7204VXR (NPE-G1) processor (revision A) with 245760K/16384K bytes of memory. SB-1 CPU at 700Mhz, Implementation 1, Rev 0.2, 512KB L2 Cache Probably still slow by x86 standards, and with a rather small cache, but it's sufficient for a few kpps, I guess... - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
