As long as the 7206s didn't have full-table BGP, they'd be my preferred solution for T1 aggregation. Our 7200s have been absolutely bulletproof, running continuously between software upgrades. Our 7500s are touchy, though less finicky than in years past. VIP memory errors seem to bite us every 2-3 months, but we're moving towards VIP4s with ECC memory and they've all been bulletproof since installation. We have a few customers who beg/demand full-table BGP over their T1, so we'll likely move to 7206s for fractional T1 (full-table BGP not allowed) and GSRs for full T1, DS3, and OCx aggregation, thereby abandoning the 7500s completely as time/budget allows. pt _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
