entry extreme1 {
if match any {
}
then {
nlri 224.1.1.103/32 ;
nlri 224.1.1.172/32 ;

summarizing them will help lower your number. Hope this helps.

i appreciate the response, however i am currently using 325 groups, and they are all working and are all needed. i tested removing the last one and that MC stopped working. I guess ill continue adding as needed, if i hit a limit i can summarize at that time. thanks again, also failed to mention that i'm running 15.5.1.6
