Just need it to be:
Totally automatic failover
Non service affecting
We will soon have either 100 Gig or 40 Gig to the world.
So I am thinking whatever we use needs to be multiple units all running in
parallel.

You can engineer around that as well. There are many things you can do with
multiples of those types of units. Simple to do and failover can be easy if
setup correctly.

Yeah, personally, I'd split it between multiple boxes and do something like one
/21 per box. It makes things a bit more complex, but it also means that if one
of those boxes does happen to croak, you're only have to deal with a quarter of
the subscribers going down instead of the whole works.

Thanks for the tip. I don't know why I didn't think to use the filter.
I guess 1,000 or so subscribers equals 26,000 or so connections. That's good
to know.
In this instance I have a private /21 NAT'd onto a public /28 with the ccr
1036 and have plenty of spare room on the CPU.
Just an idea for Chuck's case, but the 1036 with 4 10G ports and 12 1G ports
is only about $800 from Baltic. You could get 4 of those for your 8,000 user
load and have 4 hot spares in the rack. Assign a private /21 to each unit.
You could create a LAG for the 4 10G ports to get a 40G uplink.
