Title: Re: [AFMUG] Dual DIA router
Chuck,

I was able to get a 1U slot at our datacenter.  Originally started with a used IBM switch that had 1/10 gig ports.  Had a 10G transit back to my data center and had 3 different connections out the the Internet from the datacenter. Did vlans across the transit.  

I'm in the process of upgrading the transit to 100G.  Put in a used dell switch at data center with 6 100G ports and 48 1/10/25 gig ports.  Put the exact same switch in at my local hut.  Still running 3 providers at the datacenter.  Still using vlans.  I ended up connecting 3 BGP routers to the switch in my hut to distribute the data instead of doing one big BGP router.

We are actually routerless at the moment, buying access from another company that has some Cisco big iron there.  
It was a great way to start out from scratch but the economics are such that it will pay us to do our own router and own DIA now.

What's your current router? I'm sure it can do many connections using a switch and vlans. What is the specs you want and budget? Baltic vengence 3 is a good option, or mx204 is the best option probably but 25k+

To do dual DIA we are going to have to do a new router.  Or used router.  Last time down this road we were kicking tires on Juniper.  I don’t have a ton of customers on my new system yet but I can foresee 2000 in the next 2-3 years.  
What would be a good value there?  I really don’t want a $25K router right now.

Not sure I want to have two providers at the moment...  The problem is having the two backhaul circuits.  Maybe I could vlan them.  
No harm in quoting HE.  Anyone got a sales contact for me in Utah?

I think HE will go 700-800 and they will usually match each other

Cogent charges for bgp so ask for that in the quote if you need it.

Hurricane electric is 700-800$ on a 36mo term I believe, some UT locations with few customers might be an extra $500.  

Telia is a very good option but won't be quite as inexpensive as Cogent or HE, but they have really good routes and the full internet.

I can be your advocate on these types of orders, one email and I'll aggregate the quotes and send them back to you, carriers pay me 10% or so out of their side of the deal, you still pay the same.

Shopping for DIA again.  Asking Cogent to freshen up a quote.  A couple of years ago they quoted a special 10G flat for $1200/month.  Hopefully that same or better deal is still available.

Anyone have other suggestions?
