Hello, use an ER-Pro8 router and today I noticed that this router has undergone apparently linked to processing problems.
As can be seen in the information below, we have some BGP sessions this router, 1 ebgp full routing and other partial routing.
It started with packet loss in the activation of a new circuit and during the investigation I found that the load average was very high.
The traffic at this time is approximately 900Mbps in the wan interface, adding all interfaces traffic approaches 1.8Gbps.
What could be causing this problem? This router should support more than 2Gbps aggregate traffic?
Important: I deactivated bridged and a bond interface but the load average is still very high.
