Release Notes for Cisco 6400 Carrier-Class Broadband Aggregator for Cisco IOS Release 12.2(4)B7
OL-2951-03
Important Notes
Note
To support more than 750 sessions, the NRP-1 must have 128 MB DRAM.
Note
In most NRP-2 configurations, 256 MB DRAM is adequate for up to 6500 (PPPoE) sessions. More
sessions require 512 MB DRAM.
sessions require 512 MB DRAM.
NRP-2SV Scalability Tuning Parameters
Following are scalability tuning parameter values used during testing for 6000 PPPoA sessions and 2000
L2TP tunnels. These parameters prevent known issue CSCdu86416 from occurring. (8K/2K L2TP
sessions/tunnels don’t come up even after a long wait.)
