Lower than expected numbers are seen, when compared to another router with the same CPU/Memory

Solution

If a SSR Router CPU or Memory is upgraded after installation, the initialization needs to be run.

 

As Documented:

initialize128t needs to be run after resource changes to adjust capacity in a maintenance window.

 

systemctl stop 128T

initialize128t
