Description

Configure the size of the IPv6 flow table in units of 256K entries.

Note:

Prior to Junos OS Release 15.1F2, any changes in the configured size of the flow table initiates an automatic reboot of the FPC.

Note:

The recommended flow table size is 4 so that it can scale up to 4x256K flows, which is 1M. You can configure more, however, the system will issue a warning message.

Note:

Starting with Junos OS Release 17.3R1, the maximum number of 256K flow entries that you can configure for IPv4 flow tables and IPv6 flow tables is 256 on MPC5Es and MPC6Es with with 4 GB DDR3 memory or higher. The maximum number of 256K flow entries that you can configure for IPv4 flow tables and IPv6 flow tables is 245 on MPC5Es and MPC6Es with DDR3 memory lower than 4 GB.
