Delete unnecessary private routes, and then check whether the number of routes still reaches or exceeds the alarm threshold.
- If so, go to Step 5.
- If not, go to Step 6.
Enter the VPN instance view and run the display this command to check the configuration of routing-table limit to check whether the set alarm threshold of private routes is proper.
- If so, go to Step 5.
- If not, run the routing-table limit number { alert-percent | simply-alert } command to re-configure a proper alarm threshold. Then, go to Step 6.
Collect log information and configuration information, and then contact technical support personnel.
