I would have thought that this lesson would still be fresh in the
minds of people, as we just passed 256K routes a little while ago
and broke a whole bunch of Catalyst 6500/7600 SUP720-3B's (etc).
I guess the pain isn't as memorable as I thought.


Not all of us forgot... I remember the day our 7606's filled and started trying to software switch. Was a painful day indeed. At least we knew it was coming.. just couldn't do anything about it due to budgets.
