Then you really should be looking at trident 1 or trident 2 based platforms. A 48 port 10g switch only uses 1ru and a lot less power than a 6500. 96 10g ports in 2ru... The 6500 is awesome if you need features, but for straight switching - it is probably overkill. So look at arista, juniper qfx, broadcom, etc, etc. And you may even be cheaper with a new one of these vs a refurbished 6500. _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
