Problem with Cisco ...

Hi,

on occasion I have had some problems with a Cisco router ... as such, 
the system works fine, with internal MPLS VRFs as well as routing the 
data through our MPLS enabled backbone. But I've now had a problem 
(again) where a PE router would lose its BGP connection to the neighbor 
(on one occasion I had to shut the session down temporarily), and then 
all MPLS communication was dead ... the "show tag forwarding-table" in 
the PE router in that accasion was empty ... show the "show tag tdp nei" 
would still show the neighbar, and "show tag interfaces" still showed 
the ethernet as being up and operational ...

The only solution I have found to this problem to date is a complete 
router reload ... understandably, I would prefer a) not to run into this 
problem, and b) in case I do a different means of restarting the MPLS 
communication than a router reload ...

N.b.: Due to feature limitations, I can't switch the IOS to the one that 
seems to be working better on the other routers ...

Has anybody experienced such a problem, and might know a solution?

Tnx, -gg
