Ultimately, I'd like for it to be able to move around a gigabit, but a few hundred megabit would probably suffice for now if the price was right. Features needed are basic routing / simple firewall with possibly the ability of terminating VPN connections.

I'm having some difficulty getting a Mikrotik CCR to link up correctly to a Cisco Nexus switch via SFP. Therefore, I'm looking to go with Cisco or Juniper on my end, but would probably be looking at something besides the brand new models. It does need to be able to handle GigE, however. Any recommendations? Thanks. -Jason </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote>
