Improving Performance While Collecting Gate Statistics
Collecting statistics on packets that are dropped on a gate can impact system performance. To improve performance, the software can limit the number of FUF terms installed on the Packet Forwarding Engine for a virtual BGF. This limit is the maximum value of the following parameters configured on the router:
- The maximum number of FUF terms installed for the virtual BGF
- The maximum percentage of gates with FUF filters relative to all gates currently installed for the virtual BGF
To configure a limit on the number of FUF terms installed on the Packet Forwarding Engine for a virtual BGF:
- Access the configuration of your virtual BGF. [edit services pgcp]user@host# edit servicesgateway bgf-1
- Specify the maximum number of FUF terms
installed for the virtual BGF.[edit services pgcp gateway bgf-1]user@host# set fast-update-filtermaximum-terms 3000
- Specify the maximum percentage of gates
with FUF filters relative to all gates currently installed for the
virtual BGF.[edit services pgcp gateway bgf-1]user@host# set fast-update-filter maximum-fuf-percentage 15
