I'm wondering what folks would recommend for a very basic BGP router of the Cisco variety. The scenario is that I want to introduce a second ISP to my Internet edge. I don't have very high bandwidth needs - current connection is 20Mb/s and the new one will probably be 50Mb/s. I plan to use BGP to advertise my address space to both ISPs with the main goal really being that I want to ensure that I never drop off the Internet. I don't really care about best path TO the Internet, but want to make sure people can get to me. That said, I plan to just take a default route from both providers which makes me think I shouldn't need much of a router.

So I'm looking at basic default routing via BGP, about 75Mb/s of throughput needed, and would like (3) 100mb or 1Gig interfaces. Seems like a 2900 series router would work but would love to hear what folks think.

Thanks!
