Vendors have known how to solve this problem for many years.
Failure to do so is a poor implementation and has nothing to do
with centralized forwarding being better/worse than distributed
forwarding.

Yet another person who does not understand the KISS principle. I am
sure in theory it all works great, though I am seeing way too many comments
similiar to:
"The connectivity issues have been resolved. This appears to be the same
CEF related issues we experienced Monday evening, and we have a case open
with Cisco. As we get more information from Cisco, we will be passing it
along."

It _does_ show that distributed forwarding will be significantly more complex
and more difficult to implement. I am not arguing that distributed forwarding
is a bad thing; on the contrary, it has a logical and demonstrated performance
benefit. However, it comes with a cost in overall system complexity.
