A HP ProCurve 6600-48G-4XG is a bit less and has 4x 10 gig and 48x 10/100/1000 ports. And they actually tell you the packet buffer size in their spec sheets. Never used this model personally though, but I have some other HP switches and I've been happy with them. The price difference and functionally equal (for my needs) that I'd seriously consider HP if they had complete IPv6 support. Cisco-nsp seems to be the mot active list of the *-nsp and having this list as a resource is valuable. ~Seth _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
