ExtremeXOS 12.3.4 Release Notes

Supported Limits

Table summarizes tested metrics for a variety of features, as measured in a per-system basis unless

otherwise noted. These limits may change but represent the current status. The contents of this table

supersede any values mentioned in the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide.

NOTE

The term “BlackDiamond 8000 e-series modules” refers to all BlackDiamond 8500 e-series and 8800 e-

series modules.

NOTE

The term “BlackDiamond 8000 series modules” refers to all BlackDiamond 8500, 8800, and 8900 series

modules.

NOTE

The scaling and performance information shown in Ta ble is provided for the purpose of assisting with

network design. It is recommended that network architects and administrators design and manage networks with an

appropriate level of network scaling “head room.” The scaling and performance figures provided have been verified

using specific network topologies using limited switch configurations. There is no guarantee that the scaling and

performance figures shown are applicable to all network topologies and switch configurations and are provided as a

realistic estimation only. If you experience scaling and performance characteristics that you feel are sufficiently

below what has been documented, contact Extreme Networks technical support for additional assistance.

NOTE

The route limits shown in Ta bl e for IPv4 and IPv6 routing protocols are software limits only. The actual

hardware limits may be lower than the software limits, based on platform. The hardware limits for specific platforms

are specified as "IPv4/IPv6 routes (LPM entries in hardware)" in the following table.

NOTE

On a BlackDiamond 8800 or a Summit X650, X450, or X250e switch, it is not advised to have greater than

25,000 total IP routes from all routing protocols. Adverse effects can occur with routing tables larger than this,

especially when a single network event or CLI command affects a significant number of routes. For example, just

after such a network event, the added system load will cause a “save configuration” command to time out.
