Look into Static route retain. Should keep the route in the forwarding table.
>From Jniper site <<< Route Retention By default, static routes are not retained in the forwarding table when the routing process shuts down. When the routing process starts up again, any routes configured as static routes must be added to the forwarding table again. To avoid this latency, routes can be flagged as retain, so that they are kept in the forwarding table even after the routing process shuts down. Retention ensures that the routes are always in the forwarding table, even immediately after a system reboot. >>> Thanks, Jensen Tyler Sr Engineering Manager Fiberutilities Group, LLC -----Original Message----- From: juniper-nsp-boun...@puck.nether.net [mailto:juniper-nsp-boun...@puck.nether.net] On Behalf Of Benny Amorsen Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2012 8:32 AM To: Jared Mauch Cc: Saku Ytti; juniper-...@puck.nether.net Subject: Re: [j-nsp] Krt queue issues Jared Mauch <ja...@puck.nether.net> writes: > As far as the fallback 'default' route, if you are purchasing transit > from someone, you could consider a last-resort default pointed at > them.

If the default has to wait at boot in the krt-queue behind the 300k+ Internet-routes, I have not really gained anything... I suppose it is likely that a static default would be installed before the BGP sessions even come up. /Benny _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-...@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
