Parameters
Parameter Name | Parameter Meaning |
---|---|
[vpn-instance] | Indicates the name of the VPN instance. |
[prefixes-number] | Indicates the number of the current route prefixes. |
[max-value] | the upper limit for the number of route prefixes. |
Possible Causes
After the number of route prefixes in the routing table reached the upper limit, new routes continued to be added.
Procedure
- Run the display ip routing-table vpn-instance [ vpn-instance-name ] statistics command to check the total number and types of routes in this VPN instance.
- Analyze the sources of routes and check whether the number
of current private prefixes in the VPN instance meets the requirement.
- If so, go to Step 4.
- If not, go to Step 3.
- Delete unnecessary private prefixes, and then check whether
the number of prefixes still reaches or exceeds the alarm threshold.
- If so, go to Step 5.
- If not, go to Step 6.
- Enter the VPN instance view and run the display this command to check the configuration of prefix limit to check whether
the set alarm threshold of private prefixes is proper.
- If so, go to Step 5.
- If not, run the prefix limit number { alert-percent | simply-alert } command to re-configure a proper alarm threshold. Then, go to Step 6.
- Collect log information and configuration information, and then contact technical support personnel.
- End.
