If IPv6 PI follows IPv4 PI, it's not going to blow up in the near future.
My worry is long term, not short term.
How many IPv6 entries can be added if the total capacity of the line card is 0.5M IPv4 routing entry?
If the capacity of any packet forwarding engine cannot fit X+Y route entries, it cannot fit X+Y route entries. Gotcha. While I speak only for myself, I think I dare say that your voice of reservation towards the policy proposal has been heard on the list. Best, Martin
