maximum routes

Description: 

Sets a warning threshold and maximum limit for routes imported by a PE router into a VRF from associated CE routers. The no version removes the limit and warning threshold.

Syntax: 

maximum routes limit { warningThreshold | warning-only }

no maximum routes

• limit—Number in the range 1-4294967295 that when exceeded prevents routes from being imported into the routing table; when first exceeded generates a limit-exceeded log entry; if the route count fluctuates below and up to this value, an interval of five minutes must pass before another limit-exceeded log entry can be generated
• warningThreshold—Percentage in the range 1-100 that when first exceeded generates a warning-threshold-exceeded log entry; if the route count fluctuates around this value, an interval of five minutes must pass before another warning-threshold-exceeded log entry can be generated
• warning-only—Causes the limit to function as a warningThreshold; specifies that exceeding the limit generates a warning-threshold-exceeded log entry instead of a limit-exceeded log entry and permits routes exceeding the limit to be added to the routing table; if the route count fluctuates around the limit, an interval of five minutes must pass before another warning-threshold-exceeded log entry can be generated
