hi,
exactly, it depends on the exact features you need...
this is the ultimate source of thruth:
https://bitbucket.software.geant.org/projects/RARE/repos/rare/browse/profiles
the .tmpl files are the 'golas' that you have to set yourself...
it's a two step optimization, first for the tcam, then for the sram...
this is an ip-only profile with nothing else but the ipv4/ipv6 fib enabled:
https://bitbucket.software.geant.org/projects/RARE/repos/rare/browse/profiles/profile-rawip.tmpl
https://bitbucket.software.geant.org/projects/RARE/repos/rare/browse/profiles/profile-rawip.p4
and here is an other with mpls enabled:
https://bitbucket.software.geant.org/projects/RARE/repos/rare/browse/profiles/profile-p.tmpl
https://bitbucket.software.geant.org/projects/RARE/repos/rare/browse/profiles/profile-p.p4
as flou said, you should set your own features and goals and then it'll
optimize for that specific profile...
one thing to keep in mind that both sram and tcam table increase could span
to multiple code stages,
resulting in lower tables so choose the primary goal according to your needs
and let the secondary
goal span the remaining asic code space...
regards,
cs

Hi,

What size BGP table can the Wedge take running RARE?

i.e. should we suggest our engineers configure static routing?

Raul and David (our engineer) will be looking at the Wedge, servers and cabling in their current location this week, as the plan to deploy 100G in London gets nearer
Thanks,
Tim
