Well, if the memory errors corrupts the forwarding table placed on the line cards or something similar, and still keeps its adjacancies up, then you can get these problems. I've seen it happen on route-cache boxes where certain entries in the ip-forwarding table was corrupted and thus incorrectly routed. It could be that they ran out of memory on linecards as well, perhaps injected too many routes etc, and lost dCEF (dunno if the problems was on gsr or juniper), been there, done that. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: [email protected]
