Description
Disable the fabric grant bypass feature. This feature is used for communication between Packet Forwarding Engines. For instance, when a Packet Forwarding Engine wants to send a packet to another Packet Forwarding Engine (on the same MPC or on a different MPC), a request is sent to the Packet Forwarding Engine across the fabric plane. Only after the request is granted, can the source Packet Forwarding Engine send the packet to the destination Packet Forwarding Engine. Disabling the default behavior controls congestion and thus improves system behavior and performance on MX2010 and MX2020 routers.
After disabling fabric grant bypass feature on the MX2010 and MX2020, you must reboot the router for the changes to take effect. MPC1 (MX-MPC1-3D), MPC2 (MX-MPC2-3D), and the 16-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet MPC (MPC-3D-16XGE-SFP) do not power on after you disable the fabric grant bypass feature and reboot the router.
Default
Enabled for all MPCs on MX2010 and MX2020 routers with Switch Fabric Boards (SFBs). On MX2010 and MX2020 routers with the Switch Fabric Board SFB2, this feature is enabled only on the MPCs, MPC1 (MX-MPC1-3D), MPC2 (MX-MPC2-3D), and the 16-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet MPC (MPC-3D-16XGE-SFP), and disabled on all other MPCs. The feature is disabled on routers with Switch Control Boards (SCBs).
