Actually I wonder what most have decided to replace them with. To build a good 76xx platform seemed like way to much cash, and as I need 3x GE ports, a juniper seemed very costly as well.
As much as I hate to loose the redundant processors, I decided to move forward with the purchase of a 7206VXR with the NPE-G2. This looked like plenty of horsepower to run the GE uplinks to my providers, do BGP for a long time to come, and feed a couple T1's and T3's I have as well. Hopefully it will have been a good choice, granted I haven't really seen a lot posted on the NPE-G2's, but it looks like it should perform well.. --- Howard Leadmon http://www.leadmon.net > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:cisco-nsp- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Winders, Timothy A > Sent: Friday, July 20, 2007 11:58 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [c-nsp] Cisco 7507 RSP4+ with VIP-2 and 2PA-FE-TX > > So what is everyone doing with these forklifted 7507's?
