So, I'm looking at the cisco web pages and I see the 7600 is pushed big-time as a service provider edge device, and yet I see that the sup32-3b has a 300Mhz processor, and so it is not much faster than an NPE-300 (262Mhz).
I stopped taking full routes on NPE-300 equipment a couple of years ago, moving to an npe-g1. So, what's the scoop with the 7600/sup32-3b? It seems like a step back to me, other than the 8 built-in gigE ports. I'm looking at an application where the box would push a total of about 1Gbs over two gigE upstreams. It would have two gigE internal neighbors, each with full bgp routes... so four full tables. I'm concerned about the issue of traceroutes looking bad as they pass through the box (which confuses EndUsers), due to the cpu load from the bgp scanner.
