Sorry about this, didn't read very carefully, though you were shopping for 1x10GE SPA, which case you'd be paying 10k more for ES20 which has 2x10GE (adding secon 1x10GE SPA in SIP would make it more expensive than ES20. However similar math is true for ES20 in 1GE's, it's cheaper in high density compared to SIP600+SPAs.
And for your latest post, I personally don't see need for deep buffers in core, but if you do, and vlan local signifance is not an issue to you, I'd go with ES20. > On (2008-02-15 14:24 +0100), William Jackson wrote: > > > I was considering to get this line card + DFC for the mentioned chassis > > over the SIP-600 and SPA-10x1GE, any comments? > > You might want to look at ES20, you'd be paying 10k more (list) and > getting additional 10GE port. > ES20 delivers L2+L3 inluding EVC which allows very rich L2 features. > What you'd lose is some buffer depth (still massively more than LAN) > and single tag vlan local signifance in subinterfaces.
