IP prefix list capacity

[rahul.sollapure]

We are trying to have a BGP neighbor relationship with service provider, we have a Cisco 6807 XL at our end

What is the maximum number of Prefixes our device can handle, we are expecting around 30000 routes from service provider, bit concerned whether this will burden our device?

Could anyone have any information on this?

Thanks for these details, we have SUP2T, what would be the details for this?

Do you have any link wherein I could check these?

The SUP2T supports the same amount of routes:
